The School of Greatness Podcast with Lewis Howes
Written by Leigh Martinuzzi
Lewis Howes has a podcast that sits in the top 100 podcasts on iTunes. He is a lifestyle entrepreneur with a story that takes you on a journey from broken places to success. Lewis has a couple of New York Times best-selling books and a repertoire of celebrity endorsements. I don’t see eye to eye with everything he says and does, but I deeply respect the work he’s doing.
If you want to read his full story check out his About Page here. I do appreciate how Lewis openly shares many aspects of his past with his guests. As a child, he was sexually abused, he always felt left out growing up, and despite significant achievements in the sporting arena, it all came crashing down after an injury. He found himself broke with twenty dollars to his name sleeping on his sister’s couch. (more…)
Self-Doubt
by Leigh Martinuzzi
self-doubt (noun) -lack of confidence in oneself and one’s abilities.
“Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win,
by fearing to attempt.” William ShakespeareSelf-doubt is often described as our dark side or inner “gremlins” that question our motive, intention, ability and Self. It seems ludicrous to doubt oneself and yet we all do. It may not mean that we lack confidence or have low self-esteem. Even when we know through direct experience that we are capable self-doubt still lingers. I have to wonder why and for what purpose does it serve? (more…)

Allen Carr’s Easy Way To Stop Smoking
A book reflection by Leigh Martinuzzi
Allen Carr is a disciplined man, always has been. As a professional and successful accountant for many years, life was good. There was only one matter that caused him a great deal of pain and suffering – his addiction to nicotine. When he eventually quit smoking, with ease, he decided to go out and help others. He was driven to help cure the world’s smokers.
In Allen Carr’s Easy Way to Stop Smoking, he explains how he went from smoking 100 cigarettes a day to zero without suffering. For 30 years Allen was a chain-smoker. He couldn’t do anything without first lighting up. As nicotine addiction progresses, it takes over our lives until it eventually destroys our life. (more…)
Enlightenment
by Leigh Martinuzzi
Buddha said that to enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
Immanuel Kant, an 18th-century German Philosopher, said that the path towards enlightenment is to free oneself of their Self-Incurred immaturity. What does that entail? (more…)

A Short History of Truth: Consolations for a Post-Truth World
A book reflection by Leigh Martinuzzi
In this book, the author, Julian Baggini, explores ten types of supposed truth. The purpose of this writing, I guess, is to give us comfort in truth in a world that is polarised by so many conflicting untruths. It helps us understand what truth is, how and why it can be distorted or misleading, and how we may find truth within the truth.
Julian Baggini is a writer, best-selling author, and philosopher. He has written and co-authored several other books including Edge of Reason, The Ego Trick and What’s It All About. Like myself, Julian is passionate about the search for meaning in a life full of mystery and marvel – exploring small thoughts about big things and big thoughts about small things. (more…)
