Some of the best advice that I have ever received came from none other, than the illustrious Brian Tracy.

Not personally, obviously.

It came courtesy of one of his many audio books and it was a simple but effective message:

“Don’t consume any broadcast or printed media.”

Despite coming from a media background, it didn’t feel all that strange an idea – consider the News at 10 as a list of the 10 worst things to have happened that day and you broadly get the picture as painted by Tracy.

Check out the negativity on every show – Channel 4 News does an amazing job at content delivery, but there are few laughs to be had.

Lets not talk about the local news offering
Music can fill that gap on the shortest of journey but I feel that a good Podcast or audiobook can served better.

Check out some of these:

The Art of Manliness
The Innovation Show
Side Hustle School
The Disruptive Entrepreneur
The Unbeatable Mind
Finding Mastery
The Art of Charm
I Love Marketing
The Rich Roll Podcast

I’m told that this one is good too

Not in any order of preference either – they are all about business and personal improvement and that has got to be better than the Nolan Show, right?
