Finding Happiness

By Leigh Martinuzzi

I realise that in the deeper constructs of our human being there are more purposeful motivations in life.

The Future & Tech

In this interview, I speak with Futurist Matt Ward about Exponential Technologies and Where We are Headed. People talk about AI and blockchain, Crispr and VR yet the vast majority of folks do not realize how quickly the future is coming or which industries will have the largest impact. Worse still, many believe their futures to be much like their pasts and yet the science, especially when it comes to ageing and AI is advancing exponentially faster than people expect.

Individuals that see the future before it is here are able to better prepare and succeed as the world changes. We discuss why and how exponential technologies will affect health, longevity and humanity. Matt’s greatest concern is that almost globally, society, politics and the cultures we exist in are limited by short-term thinking. Perhaps the best way forward with an attempt to avoid any major catastrophes is to encourage more conversations like this one. Enjoy! (more…)

The Brendon Show

Written by Leigh Martinuzzi 

Brendon Burchard is a leading personal development coach. He is extremely motivational, personable, intimate, and often bursting with excitement and positivity.
