Dedicate24: Recent Episodes
Douglas Veitch
Dedicate24 is about trying challenges for 24 hours! I have created a Podcast, Website, YouTube Channel and even Cleaned a Beach for 24 Hours! This is a space for my thoughts on how my mind is working and aims to get you, the listener, thinking about things you haven't before.
I dedicate one day of my life to something new each couple of weeks. I had no clue how to start anything before this podcast. This project has been built from scratch! Now we have all these amazing episodes and different challenges.
Join me on my journey to prove any person can do anything, if you want to!
Being a Weirdo isn't weird.
Over the past week or so, I have realised I had lost touch with my weird side. What I mean by this is that I wasent weird enough, I used to be the weird one who woke up at 5am for a year or travelled around sleeping in the back of my car for a week and not showering. The kind of things that made people question WHY?
Thanks for listening, listen to the last episode

Invite 45 people to get 15 people show up
This past weekend I had the pleasure of spending some time in Inverness with my Brother in Law and his friends. It was his surprise 30th Birthday party which my sister had arranged for him. The weekend was unbelievable as she had prepared something for each day and each night. This meant there was always something awesome to do.
This episode is not about how much fun I had, its about the fact that there was space for 18 people to stay at this place, it was huge. This had started being planned in Septemeber and everyone was told its these dates and this is whats happening. Approximately 6 months. The first night there were 6 people there and one of them was me, I was a sub as people had pulled out.
Each hour or so there was another person who was unable to make it for the full extent or couldn't come all together. This was heartbreaking to see as my sister had put hundreds of hours into the activities and planning for this trip and some people couldn't commit to it.
Here lys the underlying lesson. If you want to have 15 people show up at something, invite 45.
This is a sad truth of our lives. The people you love the most don't show that they love you back. They may love you greatly, but if given something 6 months out there should be no excuse for not showing up.
A lesson I learned throughout my life so far anyway is that if someone is nice enough to invite me to a party, I will go.
I remember being back in uni on the basketball team and a friend called Joe invited me to his 21st Birthday at his house. I thought it must be a big party if I am getting an invite. I felt like I didnt really know him that well, we talked at training and games but we never spoke outwith basketball. But anyway I was asked would I like to go. So I applied the method of if you invite me then I’ll go. When I showed up there were 5 people there. And that number stretched to 8 people by the end of the night. I was one of 7 people invited to this party. I was taken back that I was invited honestly. Joe went onto be one of my favorite people I met at uni. But if I did’nt show up, I likely would’nt have been as close with him.
There comes something else I learned from this past weekend, if you have 4 really close friends who are ride and die with you and what I mean by this is if you were doing something and everyone else disclosed they were not coming. Those 4 people will be there come hell or high water. They are there for the good times, bad times and ugly times. Those 4 friends are more valuable than 20.
So I don't know if the best thing to do is, invite 45 people or only have a 6 person event. The idea is that those 4 people who show love back who are there when you need them, you should respect them and show them appreciation as the others who you think are like them are not.
Enjoy the ones you love with the ones you love.
Much love Peace!
Why is everything so scary right now?
Energy Prices are goind up, I saw a 6p jump in fuel between days, I heard of somewhere selling petrol for 1.99 a litre. Why is everything starting to sound so scary and make me worry?
This is a question I have asked many people before and still havent found an answer that makes complete sense to me.
If you are looking for a way to save some cash as well as do some holiday things then this could be your answer.
Peace
At some point we stopped saying let me see and started asking why would I do that?
Believe You Can

The line between genius and insane is a short one. This is what you have to know about the world.
Listen to find out if you could be onto something!

So many people around the world would love to change one thing about their life or maybe everything about their life. The decision to do something different with yourself is made out to be a massive decision but I am here to tell you its not as scary as it may sound. There are millions of stories of people who have had a career change or a massive life change at every age and they all come back with the feedback of I wish I had done it sooner or I wish that others were not afraid to take the leap of faith.
Peace
If you think right now for 20 seconds, if you could do anything in the world irrespective of money or skill or anything, what would it be? Take 20 seconds right now and think about it. . . . . .
Ask anyone who is over the age of 25 is time moving faster and I can almost guarantee that they would agree that time is moving faster. They might even claim that each year gets faster and faster. Ask anyone who is 60 plus and I am sure they will say time moves so quickly that most of their decades have blurred into one. They know 60 years is a long time but they cant believe how quick its felt. Ask anyone in their 90s and I can almost guarantee they will say that life is short they will also throw in that you should really enjoy it while it goes past as before you know its over. So why?
Thanks for Listening

I actually achieved it!
Wish Me LUCK!!!
As the year comes to a close and I thank everyone one of you for listening this year.
