Want real results — not hype? In this episode of Personal Development Unplugged Paul Clough shows you how to move from wishful thinking to action that works. We dig into practical goal-setting, the feeling of the wish fulfilled, how to use your mind (RAS + visualization), and small, actionable steps that create momentum. Expect NLP-informed tips, a short guided hypnosis process to embed success in your unconscious, and direct coaching you can use today.
Key takeaways
Define success specifically: the clearer the goal, the faster the result.
Use feeling of the wish fulfilled + physiology + inner dialogue to "act as if."
Employ the Reticular Activating System—focus your mind and notice opportunities.
Build micro-steps (tiny wins) and schedule regular reviews to stay on track.
Align goals with your values — ensure they're ecological (good for you, others, planet).
Quick practical guided hypnosis included — make this a daily habit.
Share with one person who needs permission to step up today. Have more fun than you can stand.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
