In this captivating episode of UFZ, we sit down with Mario, a visionary leader in the merchant services industry from Canada, to peel back the layers of traditional sales techniques and explore the fusion of technology and human touch in the realm of payment processing. From the art of cold calling to the integration of AI and tech in sales and marketing, Mario shares invaluable insights and personal stories that illuminate the path forward for small businesses and marketers alike. Whether you're intrigued by the evolution of merchant services, curious about leveraging AI in your marketing strategy, or simply looking for inspiration from a seasoned professional's journey through the complexities of the industry, this conversation allowed me to pick Marios brain in his sales experience, and why he thinks merchant services industry is worth working in if he went back in time.

An old school type podcast episode outside, enjoying nature, and as the wind blows so does the cigar smoke and mental thoughts penetrating mother nature and the souls of retarded liberals who's ideas don't survive the free market hence why they seek to destroy and cancel everything. We discuss how the mental framework is needed first, the mindset, system, and ways of thinking before approaching any subject. If that foundation is off, then no matter the topic at hand it will be difficult to reach any sort of accord or understanding when the very core of a person is not rooted in critical thinking, nor capable of it.Follow me on X and Youtube @ZIEEDUFZand IG @ 365UFZ

This is NOT an overview on the matter nor full historical context. However, I wanted to share few ideas and questions that serve to provide thoughts on a complicated manner than many from both sides attempt to over simplify for their own sake, when fact of the matter is bad things happen, innocents pay for it while elites use them as pawns. Blind hatred is dumb and can be just as dangerous as blind love. You can support your people and want the best for them while also holding them accountable. Being responsible and taking accountability first step as men is key in brokering any kind of relationship, especially one like this where there are valid claims, grievances, and misstellings of each others narrative. Be consistent. In a region like ours of Middle East many are way less forgiving than Israel. No need to hold them to a higher standard then we do ourselves nor is there need to demonize a group of people who were defenceless for so long. My heart aches for Palestinians but even the left wing and right wing ones are not consistent in their mentality, rhetoric, nor demands for what a possible future holds for the sake of Palestinians and any possible state.

We also broke apart musical styles, icons, and impacts different artists' lyrics have had on us and the public. We talked about hip hop then vs now from NY natives who grew up on some of the most fundamental iconic hip hop groups that started the wave of craze with world's #1 genre.

Marriage, love, and religion could quite be only available in the large market for poor folk. This episode I discuss the lack of necessity for love in marriage (from someone who's never been married) as well as the lack of need of religion in many richer western nations, whereas the idolisation of gods could be found in poorer places of the globe. Marriage is also historically been a strategic, convenient, or agenda based transaction that poor and rich people are aware of but yet it seems that middle class have fallen into the trap of thinking they need to fall in love, especially in the romantic definition.Thank you for listeninhttps://Zieed.com for news letter@ZieedUFZ tiktok youtube IG

Whenever we allow a minority to be free of criticism and justice, we give them power and control. This could be applied to religions, but the case of this episode is the state of Israel where as the Economist describes it, 'Jews are being welcomed in the Middle East.' Jews have always been in the Middle East for it was the Middle East that took them when Spain kicked them out late 15th century. Countries like Emirates and Egypt are accommodating for Israeli travellers, making deals with the government of Israel, but allowing them to continue their illegal actions against the residents of Palestine- Gaza and West Bank. This is not about Jewish hate or not wanting Jews to travel freely and respected, this is about justice and punishment for the actions the Israeli government has committed. Why the lack of unity among Arab states? Allow Israelis to travel to their countries but they should allow freedom of movement of Palestinians then. Why is their luxury to travel a greater priority than basic rights for Palestinians?This episode I also discuss if we can get more stupid as humans , as well as a few inquiries into the social benefits of Nordic countries and the high inequality that both systems of neoliberalism and 20th century socialist states have created.Thank you for listeningZieed.com@ZieedUFZ IG Tiktok youtube

IG- @ZieedufzZieed.comConsistency along with discipline battles motivation for a driving force to lead you to success. However, there is a large difference that we do not separate enough. Like what does one do when motivation slips? Same in romance with lust vs love, admiration, and respect. What does a couple do when lust disappears. Train individually with discipline and consistency to work on your goals even when not the most motivated. Just another habit. Train on having sex even after married and lust disappears. Just another habit."Everything you say must be true, but not everything true must be said"- Voltaire

22/05/21This is a new, weekly Friday segment of the podcast where I ask a question and dive into it a bit regarding what I mean by it, where I stand, and why im asking it. Could be literal simple question that sparks a conversation for half an hour or a complicated macro question that only requires background info and the rest to be thought by you. This week is what we post in regards to social media, social movements, news, and current events particularly from what we've seen past year from George Floyd, BLM, to Palestine, specifically Gaza with Israel. From settler colonialism to police brutality what are the rules to posting, what are we obligated to be informed on, post, share, and what can we not ignore? What the social rules using social media? Should there even be any?IG-@zieedufz for comments and follow ups to this questions to be featured next weekZieed.com for email list

19/5/21This episode takes a look a macro questions behind why us, why Planet Earth as home for Homo Sapiens as well as the issue of Palestine, supplemented with micro perspective questions in regard to behind the why of current geopolitical issues and humanitarian crisis in the occupied territory.

I have an older episode dedicated further into Enemy Creation under the same title. A proper worded question could have the answer within it, so I dedicated some time here to simply ask.

Everyone dies, but not everyone lives. No guarantee that we would be born, but there is a certain guarantee that you reading this will die. People fear, think, or don't think about death for different reasons. Religion, spirituality, and anxieties play different roles but sometimes death is liberation when being alive is bondage like medical suffering or enslavement. Ojala or Inshallah, sort of used like hopefully, something I always grew up accustomed to using especially when making plans; not because of belief in God but just the fact that things are not in my hand to decide.
