Didier Soulier's Podcast

Starting from this provocative idea, Sapiens goes on to retell the history of our species from a completely fresh perspective. It explains that money is the most pluralistic system of mutual trust ever devised; that capitalism is the most successful religion ever invented; that the treatment of animals in modern agriculture is probably the worst crime in history; and that even though we are far more powerful than our ancient ancestors, we aren’t much happier. By combining profound insights with a remarkably vivid language, Sapiens acquired cult status among diverse audiences, captivating teenagers as well as university professors, animal rights activists alongside government ministers. By 2018, over 10 million copies have been sold, and the book has been translated into nearly 50 languages. "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!": Adventures of a Curious Character is an edited collection of reminiscences by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. The book, released in 1985, covers a variety of insta

I have mentioned this before to you my lovely listeners, I wanted to quit drinking because I could not just do a little, I had to get really drunk every time I had a drink. I’m not here to judge people that can enjoy drinking moderately, I will I could do the same, have one glass of wine without the need to finish the bottle, but I can’t, I can’t lie to myself anymore, I can not do just a little drink. I been drunk and passing out every night for about 4 months, and last week was the tipping point for me. I was told but the bar staff I was going to every single night, that I was chatting up every single woman that came up to the bar, and one girl told me to literally f*** off, and the worst thing is; I don’t remember any of it, like most nights, I don’t remember how I get home, and most of the night. After listening to tells of what I did under the influence of drinking, something switch in my brain and I thought, ok enough is enough, I need to stop. Now as I recently stopped smoking, I knew will po

I’ve heard about Stoic philosophy from Tim Ferris and Darren Brown, but never actually looked into it until this week, where I just finished reading How to be like a Roman Emperor from Marcus Aurelius written by Donald Robertson. Oh boy, I can not wait to read it again. It’s full of great life advice, that speaks so true still in today’s world. The fast that Marcus and other poeple of their time like Socrates, already worked it all out for us, and I’m asshamed to say at only 39 years of age, I finally understand what they were sharing with the world. You would think what they wrote would not apply to us in the 21st century, well I couldn’t be more wrong. Everythins they talked about, debated and wrote about is as true today as the sun rising every morning. I invite you, no I implore you that if you are going to read one book this year, then you should read this book. Well of course make time for Outwitting the Devil by Napoleon Hill too. A point on meditation: Meditation experts often give the following a

This is the second mini episode and I would like to invite you to read or listen to Ernest Cline pop culture classic “ready player one” and immerse yourself into the OASIS world. I’m afraid the Spielberg’s adaptation did not do it justice to me, the book is far better on so many levels, if only for not having Short Circuit and the Monty Pytons, I guess It was too hard to get all the licensing rights for the movie. Anyway, read the book and you will not put it down till the end and get to the last easter eggs and defit Sorrento’s army. Audio Book: https://www.amazon.com/Ready-Player-One/dp/B005HG7BWC Movie Trailer: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1677720/ The second suggestion is a documentary about The tragedy of Eva-Marree from French Director Ovidie: Where prostitutes don’t exist. Her children were taken from her because she was a prostitute for only 5 weeks to live because she had to leave her abusive partner, and then she was killed by their father. This is one of the most poignant documentaries I watch

Thank you Jessica McCabe for your Ted Talk, finds out about her, and her patreon which I am proud to say I just joined. www.howtoadhd.com Hello my lovely listeners or readers, this week I have found what I thought was wrong with me for almost all my life. It’s called ADHD, Einstein, J.F.K, Richard Branson, Justin Timberlake, and many others have it, in fact we represent around 3 to 5% of the population. For years I have been suffering from not being able to switch off my brain to sleep, can not keep a day job for long, have impulsive behaviors, not aware of time like most people, able to hyper focus on a task to the point that I forget to eat or drink, procrastinate, start many things and not finish them, be full of ideas, daydream constantly, lose my concentration if some talk to me too slow, being forgetful, and piss a lot of people without realising it. I have sorted myself out on many factors, with meditation, exercise, self improvement, boosting my self esteem, before I actually found out I had A

In this episode I speak with Laurie Tubb the Founder and Co Owner of LinMail Pro, the latter is a fantastic software base product which I personally loved to use a few years back. check it out here: https://www.linmailpro.com/ In 1999 Laurie sold his shares in a small telecoms company which he co founded in 1997. After this life changing some of money, Laurie went on traveling while working on new projects of his own making. I ask my friend Laurie the following questions How did you start your first venture on Telecoms, by chance? How well did you it do, did you start with the mindset of selling eventually? Big mistake you wish you didn’t do? How did you overcome hard times? What would recommend others that wish to open a business? What do you do to relax? What books help you or people that inspired you? Thank you for listening or reading.

This week's episode I talk to my good friend and NLP therapist Mark Peters at Balance Approach https://www.nlpbirmingham.co.uk Mark is a good friend of mine, and was my NLP therapist when I had an ordeal while I was struggling with a relationship break up and I was lost, and drinking heavily for months, about 8-9 pints a day, smoked Joints, did cocaine. He helped me understand where I was having an internal problem, past issues with my dad, and how he saved me from my own sabotage by personalise short audio files when I was horrified by created by own lack of self esteem. Not only having session with him save me, help me toward recovery, but the daily listening to his recorded message where he gave me clear instructions to find within myself the strength to fight back and see the light at the end of the tunnel. This happened very quickly as within months I was cured, when I thought It would take me years to overcome the deep and creeping feeling of losing my girlfriend at the time. We will talk about

I suffered for almost 10 years with my porn and sex addiction, which led to a heavy use of drugs such as Marijana, Cocaine and alcohol. I would watch porn up to 12 times a day on a bad day, which affected my own business, my self esteem and happiness. I would tell people I was doing great, but behind close doors I was crying and seeking help. For me I was getting to the point that I told myself: if you can’t stop I will just have to kill myself at some point. It took therapy sessions , NLP sessions talking to good friends and reading books about addiction but what really worked for me is the drastic measures I took: At the age of 39, I decided to leave the UK and back home to France to give myself the best chance to succeed and change my bad habits. Changing my environment, moving back to my to France to my mum and working every day at doing less and less really worked for me. I was committed for change, and I stopped judging myself when I failed some days. In the first edition of my Podcast the Dider

Piss off Iphone, and Facebook, young people need to be taught that there is life without a phone. I hate Iphone with passion, I mean Steve Jobs used to stand for something great, an idea that the world could be better, not the over priced piece of shit of a phone they call iPhone these days, and charge you $1000 when it cost probably $100 to made by little children in a far away country that I can most likely not even spell nor pronounce correctly. By the way iPhone and rest of shitty phone out there are not even phone, try to call someone and the battery will run out before you get to finish your first sentence. I mean fuck off Tim Cooks and your Share Older cunts, you all should be shot in the name of Steve for taking a shit all over his company. You bunch of cunts, Appel used to stand for an idea of greatness, a purpose to do thing differently, to be creative, to stand alone, push the boundaries to innovate, to make a difference. When was the last time you cunts have actually had a real idea other than
