“The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.” - Oprah Winfrey • Feed Me Fuel Me (@feedmefuelme) episode 057 with Scott Duffy - How To Buy A Rainforest • Have you ever wondered how to buy a rainforest? This week's guest, Scott Duffy (@realscottduffy), found out very quickly while working with Richard Branson (@richardbranson), after spending years under the tutelage of Tony Robbins (@tonyrobbins). Talk about an education in making the impossible more than possible! Scott shares with us his journey of self-improvement, and self mastery. After a horrific car accident left him bed-ridden for months, the universe came calling. A friend left him with self-improvement books-on-tape that he listened to for hours on end. Through the repetitive message he received, that his circumstances should not dictate his course, he was able to humbly find a way to place himself at the feet of the masters and learn from them. By observing the daily habits, routines, an

Melanie discusses the difference between allowing your circumstances to dictate your life and deciding to overcome those seemingly limiting circumstances. The journey can be long. As Melanie will uncover, it can be painful. However, at no point is it impossible. We discuss, in this episode, the mental and physical mechanisms for protection that we build around ourselves in the aftermath of pain. To further the point, it is important that we acknowledge that where there was once pain, it may not actually remain. However, in compensation and as a means of self-preservation, we tend to avoid any circumstance that might come close to the incident that caused us pain in the first place. This ma
