On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast Paul talks to Sharon Griffiths about the things she didn’t know that he now knows and thinks the world should know.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
I didn’t know how many people would still be with me or would have left me in this world, and I didn’t know how I’d feel about each one. I also didn’t know what I’d be doing now, or that my husband would say this on a regular basis: You’ve got an amazing talent, Sharon – pointing out the obvious!
The mind is full of stuff we don’t know about, and suddenly up pops a thought. As a child, I rarely found adults to answer my questions, so I became very curious, and I’d have discussions with myself to get clarity on what I wanted to do and achieve. I didn’t know that was normal and that other people did it.
If you have a challenge, it’s obvious that by stepping into that challenge/problem/issue, that’s where the solution is. You cannot think yourself out of where you’ve acted yourself into. By stepping into the challenge, you’ve acted yourself there. The only way to get out of it is not the way that took you there, it’s a different way of thinking.
BEST MOMENTS
‘What may appear chaotic, confusing or something I may not know about, I either point out the obvious to myself or I ignore it because it’s not relevant to me.’
‘If people talk to me about their problems, I used to get myself in trouble because I’d point out the obvious, and I learned to keep quiet because it wasn’t for me to do that to people..’
‘I would often self-sabotage, I wasn’t aware that I was doing it but it was obvious from the outside and I was often told I was my own worst enemy.’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Sharon Griffiths lives in Essex, England with her husband and their three cats, and they have two daughters in their early twenties. She trained as a teacher and in September 1985, began her teaching career, initially with children in the 11-16 secondary sector; also teaching the complementary therapies of reflexology and massage to aspiring practitioners and people who wanted to learn these subjects.
From 2001 to 2015, Sharon then focused on developing her complementary therapy practice and progressed to management roles in a large English local authority, developing thousands of learning and community programmes in the post-16 sector; working with hundreds of colleagues, tutors, trainers, sector specialists and community partners to enable tens of thousands of people to learn and develop a wide range of skills and interests. In 2017, Sharon and her husband began to follow another plan that of investing in property, to ultimately create greater choice in their lives, live their highest values, do what they love to do and always say at any point from then onwards…
