I’m Keith Blakemore Noble, your host and Mindset Master with over 16 years of real-world experience working with people just like you. In this very first episode, I share why being an overachiever isn’t about flashy cars, big bank accounts, or showing off on social media, and instead share what it is all about – spoiler, it’s about how we behave, the responsibility we take on, and the relentless standards we set for ourselves. If you find yourself carrying more than others, struggling to rest without guilt, or rarely stopping to celebrate your achievements, then you’re in the right place. We’ll take a look at some of the real myths that surround overachievement, and I’ll help you recognise the patterns that might be holding you back. Together, we’ll look at new ways to define success; ways that don’t drain your energy or happiness. There’s also [a fun quiz](#elementor-toc__heading-anchor-11) I’ve created to help you see what kind of overachiever you really are, and where your strengths and challenges might lie. Join me on this journey as I share honest insights, practical ideas, and encouragement from someone who’s also walking this path. Let’s work out how you can keep achieving, just in a way that suits the next stage of your life, without burning out. Subscribe, tune in, and let’s get started; you’re not alone in this. ## Key Themes 1. Overachievement is defined by behaviour 2. The hidden cost of always doing more 3. Common myths about overachievers 4. Need to evolve mindset for growth 5. Redefining success on personal terms ## If You Prefer Video ## Transcript Welcome to the Overachievers Podcast with Keith Blakemore-Noble. Because success shouldn’t cost everything. Hello. Welcome to the Overachievers Podcast, the show for people who do more than most and quietly pay the price for it. My name is Keith Blakemore-Noble. I’m The Mindset Master, and I am your host and guide through the overachievers universe. Now, if you take responsibility, if you hold yourself to high standards, if you keep going when things feel heavy, there’s a good chance you’re already doing more than the average person ever would. And yet, even with all of that, you probably don’t think of yourself as an overachiever. Yeah, you might just see yourself as responsible, capable, just doing what needs to be done. Sounds familiar. Yeah, I mean, you might still be working hard, still building, still waiting for things to feel easier or more secure. You might not have the big house or the full bank account or the sense that you’ve made it yet. But here’s what often gets missed. If you are the one who steps up, if you’re the one who keeps things moving, if you’re the one who carries more than most people would in the same situation, you’re already doing more than most. And that, my friend, that makes you more an overachiever. By definition, you’re already achieving more than most people. This podcast exists for you because success shouldn’t cost everything. Let’s clear something up right away. Being an overachiever is not about status. It’s not about income. It’s not about lifestyle. It’s about behaviour. Overachievers are people who take responsibility when others step back or go the extra mile. As standard, overachievers care deeply about doing things well and about keeping going when most people would have long since given up. That includes people who are still building, people who are still striving, people who don’t feel successful yet. In fact, many overachievers don’t actually feel successful at all. They feel that they’re lagging behind. They feel stretched. They feel like they should be further along by now. Is any of this resonating? Because of that, they assume they can’t possibly be overachievers. But overachievement isn’t about where you’ve arrived. It’s about how you operate. It’s not about where you get to. It’s about how you get there. Most overachievers have simply normalised. Effort, pressure, responsibility. It just feels like life to them. It’s just the way it is. Overachievers are very good at minimising their own efforts. They say things like, or, I’m just doing what needs to be done, or other people cope with more than this, or I should be further ahead than this by now. They compare upwards. They move the goalposts. They downplay what they’ve already carried and achieved. So doing more than most becomes invisible, even to yourself. But if you pause and if you look honestly, what you call normal would feel overwhelming for many others. You’ve been operating above average for so long, you just got used to it. Now, I know what you’re thinking. Why are you the one to talk about overachieving, Keith? And it’s true. I don’t have a huge company yet. I don’t live in a mansion. I don’t have a nine figure bank account. And that’s okay. I am not here to sell you some image of mythical success with the sports car and the mansions and the private jets and all that nonsense. What I do have is over 16 years of real world experience working closely with people and their mindsets backed up by multiple qualifications in nlp, hypnosis, coaching, speaking, and more. This is real, real world experience of working with people who run businesses, people who lead teams, people who carry families, people who quietly hold everything together. Over and over, I have watched the same patterns play out. Highly capable people doing more than most and slowly paying for it with their energy, with their health, with their relationships, or even with their sense of self worth. This podcast isn’t. It’s not me standing above you saying, this is what you must do. It’s me sharing what I have observed, what I have learned, what I’m continuing to apply to myself if no one else. Because, yes, I am on this overachiever’s journey too, along with you. We’re not aiming for perfection here. Let’s face it, perfection doesn’t exist. We’re exploring how to succeed in a way which actually works in the long term. So let me describe a few patterns that come up again and again and again. Let’s. Hey, let’s just see what resonates with you. You say yes because you feel responsible, not because you have the capacity. Oh, yeah, I have to do that. Not, yeah, I’ve got. I’ve got. I’ve got the capacity to do that. You keep going even when you’re tired, because stopping feels uncomfortable, even if it’s to the detriment of your own health. Struggling to rest without guilt. Oh, I shouldn’t be resting. I got so much stuff to do. You rarely celebrate your achievements. Oh, you rarely celebrate Your achievements, because your focus is already on what’s next. What’s next? What’s next? You hold yourself to standards which you would never expect from anyone else. Any of these sounding familiar to you? Any of these you’ve observed in people, Perhaps someone you know incredibly well? Over time, all of this creates a quiet internal pressure. Not always obvious stress, but a constant sense of weight pressing you down. You’ve less energy. You’ve less patience, less space to breathe. Not because you’re doing something wrong, but because the way you’re operating has reached its limits. So when it comes to overachieving, there are a few myths that it’s worth us clearing up at this point. The first myth is that all overachievers are confident all of the time. Not true. Many overachievers are driven by doubt, not by confidence, which is a shame, because when they can overcome that doubt and step into their confidence, they can achieve so much more without burning out and without the extra stress and effort. The second myth. Overachievers have dramatic, ambitious goals. We all know the hype about big, hairy, audacious goals and all that, and they work for some people. But often overachievement shows up quietly in reliability, consistency, and care. The third myth. Overachievers are all built for pressure. No, we’re not. Overachievers feel pressure deeply because we care deeply. And the biggest myth of all. Overachieving is the problem. No. When I talk about overachieving a number of times, people say, oh, you should never be an overachiever because that means you’re pushing yourself beyond the limits. That means you’ll never be satisfied. Not at all. The problem? Overachieving. The problem is carrying overachiever thinking into a stage of life where it no longer serves you. You see, your current thinking got you to where you are. You absolutely needed your current thinking to get you to where you are. It worked. It helped you to survive. It helped you to build, it helped you to grow, and it helped you to develop new whatever level of success you currently have. That’s what your current thinking brought you. But that’s all it will bring you. It brought you to where you are. But you didn’t come all this way just to only come all this way. Now it’s time to evolve your thinking to lead you to the next stage. So over the coming weeks and months, the overachievers podcast is going to explore what why effort stops delivering returns. Why rest feels uncomfortable. How responsibility can quietly expand and creep and grow. How success can become tied to self worth. Why doing more doesn’t always work. I’m going to look at how to redefine success on your terms. There is no one size fits all solution here. Everyone’s different. Different things work for different people. I’m not offering rules here. I’m not giving you a cut and paste template. Follow my template and you will get amazing results. We’re all different. Different things work for different people. I’m not offering rules. I’m not giving you the definitive way to do anything. If anyone ever tells you this is the definitive way, everything else is wrong, you probably want to run a mile because they’re wrong. There is no definitive way. What I am offering are perspectives, patterns and possibilities. Some of these episodes will land very deeply for you. Other episodes, they might not feel all that relevant. And that’s fine. You never know which single insight is going to be the one that quietly changes everything, everything for you. Take what works. Discard the rest before the next episode. There is a very simple step that you can take which will help all of this to really make a lot more sense for you. I have created a short fun quiz, the Overachievers Quiz, which shows how these patterns are showing up for you. Where the pressure tends to come from lets you see what kind of overachiever you actually are. You can see your strengths, your see your weaknesses, see what propels you forward, see what you need to change in order to help you grow. It only takes a few minutes. You’ll find the link in the show notes or go to KeithBN.link/Quiz takes a couple of minutes. It’s a little bit of fun. Find out what kind of overachiever you are. That’s it for now.
