All the way from Tenerife, Clie meets and talks to David Balchin, an eternal optimist who shares his formula for a brighter outlook on life, and discusses the ways in which you can extract yourself from a negative situation and turn any challenge into a positive outcome.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • We must endeavour to look on the bright side at all times. There's always someone worse off than you. Count your blessings and remain as optimistic as possible.
  • Life is a process of alternates, especially in business. We enter into arrangements, but if they don't work out, we need to have a strategy to deal with our exit.
  • Always try to find a way to help if you can. Search for ways in which you can help and enrich others, and you'll be doing your part to make the world a better place.
  • If you make a decision to do something, you should commit to making it happen. Determination and resilience are the keys to fulfilment

BEST MOMENTS

'I start off being an optimist and remain an optimist'

'I'm a fortunate person. I'm happy in my own skin'

'Where you can help, help!

'When you make a decision, you enter a period of rejoicing or regret'

ABOUT THE HOST

Clie van Helsdingen

My name is Clie, I’m Dutch and come from a very large family, lots of brothers and sisters and when my dad died when I was 5, I felt (lots of programmes) as if I was to be seen, not heard. I have found my voice and I want to share my positivity and use my voice to inspire the young and the old. I want to interview positive people, to get smiles on people’s faces and get rid of negativity for some time.
