Intentional Mastery: what is it and how do you achieve it, with William Buist

We all know people who are the absolute masters of their craft, whether that's as an artist, in sports or in their job.

We look at people who make it look so effortless and ask the question 'how on earth do they do that!', yet often when we have mastery of an aspect in our lives we dismiss it or don't even notice it as being anything exceptional.

 

Parenting, in our relationships, in our own approach to exercise or perhaps an aspect of our own jobs, there are likely to be areas that we have achieved a level beyond 'consciously competent'.

 

My guest on today's episode is William Buist and he talks about intentional mastery and the stages that go before it. The area that he specialises in is small business mentoring, but the concepts and strategies that he offers are translatable to almost every other aspect of our lives.

 

William and I have worked together in the past and I recently read his new book by the same name - Intentional Mastery - and I was intrigued to see an entire chapter devoted to the importance of 'Self', where he discusses emotional wellbeing, physical wellbeing and mental resilience.

 

William also has his own inspirational story of making changes in his life to reflect the need to take better care of his health and energy, and I ask him about how he started on his journey towards losing 2 stone and keeping it off.

 

If you've ever yo-yo'ed with your weight loss in the past I think you'll find this particular section of interest.
