Updated | By Rory Petzer
In this episode of The Carol
Ofori Podcast, Carol has a conversation with author and Google’s Country
Director in South Africa, Dr Alistair Mokoena that will change the dialogue you
have with yourself and enable you to reframe negative thoughts as ‘fuel’.
Paint a picture of success and let that be the guiding force, let that be this lighthouse that draws you in. You have a responsibility to keep yourself going. Nobody else will do it for you.- Dr Alistair Mokoena
In the latest episode of The Carol Ofori Podcast, Carol has an important conversation with ‘Servings of Self-Mastery’ author Dr Alistair Mokoena.
They discuss the importance of celebrating every success along the way, instead of waiting for the ‘big victories’ as we need the small wins to keep us motivated.
Dr Mokoena also gives us the tools we need to reframe negative thoughts into positive energy that we can use as fuel to catapult us forward and keep us going.

It’s an important conversation for every single person who has ever experienced anxiety, loss, self-doubt, confusion, procrastination, lack of self-control and even impatience.
Listen to the full conversation below or at the top of this page.
Regardless of all the help, all the company, and everything around you, you are responsible for yourself. When you’re sitting in a room between those four walls, you only have yourself, and the conversation you have with yourself can make or break you.- Dr Alistair Mokoena
Meanwhile, in an earlier episode of The Carol Ofori Podcast, Carol had an enlightening conversation with Dan Southwood-Wells, one of the founders of the South African ‘life-saving app,’ EskomSePush. Southwood-Wells explained why and how the idea for the EskomSePush app originated and reveals how the name was chosen – and no, it’s not what you think!
