What’s
Wildest
Dream?
You might already know your answer, or maybe you don’t.
Perhaps you are working hard, but your life lacks meaning, purpose, direction.
Maybe you already know who you are and where you want to go, but you are struggling to keep up.
You know that your approach is unsustainable but you do not know a better way.
You are exactly where you need to be.
Here, with us, Jack and Pat, at Wildest Dream.
Hi, we’re Patrick and Jack
We work with people exactly like you, from London to Prague to Bangkok.We are building a platform, movement and worldwide coaching community which we are calling Wildest Dream.
It is a journey with three chapters centred around:
Know Thy Self: Values, Strengths, Passions
Know Thy Path: Fulfilment, Vision, Wildest Dream
Know Thy Steps: Mindset, Energy, Habits.
If one thing captures the essence of what we do, it is the opening lines of the 700 year old Dante’s Inferno:
When I had journeyed half of our life’s way,
I found myself in a shadowed forest,
For I had lost the path that does not stray.

The Benefit Of Two Way Doors.
That’s the thing about life, you have to try things in the full knowledge that it could be a terrible idea. An Australian moved to Sri Lanka to try the digital nomad life and ended up starting my new favourite Black Honey Café. So, try something, at the very least you’ll get a cool t-shirt, at best you might open a new café.

Want To Start Waking Up Earlier? Try This
I then went away and created this simple, five-step process for you. It’s science-backed, tried and tested and rooted in circadian biology. The goal: to enable you to wake up earlier consistently - not just for a week, but for good. No more snoozing the alarm, rushing through the morning and sprinting into the office. Instead, you could be arriving each day into the office well-rested, energised and with that deep sense of satisfaction having already won your morning.

Wherever We Go, There We Are
It’s Monday. You drag yourself out of bed, sleepwalk through showering, brushing your teeth and getting ready for work. You’re now on the tube, surrounded by solemn faces rocking back and forth in the rattling carriage. You sit and think of the problems ahead of you this week: the tough client conversation you need to have, the looming project deadlines and the ever-growing life admin to-do list.
Einstein, Egg And Cress
Maybe it was the gym. You got the membership, bought the gear, and rode the wave of motivation for a week or two. But then work got busy, life got noisy, the wave flattened, you found excuses not to go and the new ritual slowly faded.
No, You Don't Need To Work More To Achieve More. Here's Why
“But Patrick, if I slow down, focus on doing fewer things and protect time for rest and recovery, won’t I become lazy? What has made me successful in my career so far has been my work ethic and drive. I’m worried that in slowing down I will lose that.”
How To Guide For Achieving Any Goal
At the same time, as the science shows and as I see time and time again in my coaching, the key to achieving any goal is consistency in execution of tactical actions. And the key to consistency in execution of tactical actions is in setting the bar low.
We Learn More From Stories Than Textbooks
We can learn all we like from non-fiction, but some of the best sources of wisdom are in stories. Real, made up, or loosely based on facts, these stories are how we learn to interact with the world.
