Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes What Successful People Actually Do (Copy Them) August 11, 2025 | Episode 5156 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ready for some old-school wisdom? I'm taking you deep into my world of "observational motivation" - basically, I study successful people and figure out what makes them tick. From yacht owners to persistence masters, I've been watching winners my whole life. Today I'm sharing the real rules successful people follow, and trust me, some of these might surprise you. It's not just about working harder - it's about showing up right, never assuming, and yeah, learning how to serve others without giving everything away. Featured Story I share my favorite yacht story from Hilton Head, where I walked right up to a rich guy everyone was laughing at and asked him straight up: "How'd you get that beautiful yacht?" Next thing I know, I'm aboard drinking margaritas and swabbing the deck with him. That's observational motivation in action - while others judge from a distance, I get curious and model what works. Sometimes the best lessons come from just asking the right questions. Important Points The person with the strongest why will always win because they'll go to the mat and put up with more than anyone else. Showing up matters, but showing up on time matters even more - successful people treat punctuality like a competitive sport. When you serve others genuinely, everything you want in your life gets better, but serving doesn't mean giving discounts or working for free. Memorable Quotes "Success leaves clues. The funny thing is, unsuccess leaves clues too - you can see what you messed up." "The person with the strongest why is going to win because they'll stand the fight and put up with the most." "When you serve, when you get out there and serve people, everything you want in your life is going to get better." Scott's Three-Step Approach Start with your "what" before finding your "why" - you can't have a strong purpose until you know exactly what you want to achieve. Document your journey actively, not just passively - create an operating manual for your success instead of just journaling about it. Accept complete responsibility for yourself and your outcomes, even when it's easier to blame circumstances or other people. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Anxiety doesn't just disappear — it often needs to be unseated. In this second message on the theme of anxiety, Alisha explores Paul's call to “let the peace of Christ rule” and draw on insights from Nader Sahyouni, whose three A's model offers a practical way forward: Avoid less, Accept more, Attach better. Through Scripture, neuroscience, and the “Please, Thank You, Yes” prayer model, we learn how to meet anxiety with God's presence and grow a deep, lasting peace.

Part IIIntroductionWords will mean little now. We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons that remain are merely introductions to the times in which we leave the world of pain, and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set, and find the end toward which our practicing was always geared.Now we attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have come far along the road, and now we wait for Him. We will continue spending time with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. We use as much as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we forget our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget our goal.We will continue with a central thought for all the days to come, and we will use that thought to introduce our times of rest, and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining holy instants which conclude the year that we have given God. We say some simple words of welcome, and expect our Father to reveal Himself, as He has promised. We have called on Him, and He has promised that His Son will not remain unanswered when he calls His Name.Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts, and wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told us, through His Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited him. He has not left His Son in all his madness, nor betrayed His trust in Him. Has not His faithfulness earned Him the invitation that He seeks to make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him to come to us.Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled. Now are all ancient promises upheld and fully kept. No step remains for time to separate from its accomplishment. For now we cannot fail. Sit silently and wait upon your Father. He has willed to come to you when you have recognized it is your will He do so. And you could have never come this far unless you saw, however dimly, that it is your will.I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these holy times to You, in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement, given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead, and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we made, and take that world to be the full replacement of our own.And now we wait in silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have sought to find our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget us now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your Will to keep. We will with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose holy Will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this certainty, we undertake these last few steps to You, and rest in confidence upon Your Love, which will not fail the Son who calls to You.And so we start upon the final part of this one holy year, which we have spent together in the search for truth and God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for us, and made the choice to follow it as He would have us go. His Hand has held us up. His Thoughts have lit the darkness of our minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since time began.We had a wish that God would fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted God to change Himself, and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that our insane desires were the truth. Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think illusions true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide horizons of our minds. A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and we who are God's Sons are safely home, where He would have us be.Now is the need for practice almost done. For in this final section, we will come to understand that we need only call to God, and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but feel His Love. Instead of prayers, we need but call His Name. Instead of judging, we need but be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is complete. This year has brought us to eternity.One further use for words we still retain. From time to time, instructions on a theme of special relevance will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep experience which should come afterwards. These special thoughts should be reviewed each day, each one of them to be continued till the next is given you. They should be slowly read and thought about a little while, preceding one of the holy and blessed instants in the day. We give the first of these instructions now.What is Forgiveness?Forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has not occurred. It does not pardon sins and make them real. It sees there was no sin. And in that view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin, except a false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity, and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of God.An unforgiving thought is one which makes a judgment that it will not raise to doubt, although it is not true. The mind is closed, and will not be released. The thought protects projection, tightening its chains, so that distortions are more veiled and more obscure; less easily accessible to doubt, and further kept from reason. What can come between a fixed projection and the aim that it has chosen as its wanted goal?An unforgiving thought does many things. In frantic action it pursues its goal, twisting and overturning what it sees as interfering with its chosen path. Distortion is its purpose, and the means by which it would accomplish it as well. It sets about its furious attempts to smash reality, without concern for anything that would appear to pose a contradiction to its point of view.Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still, and quietly does nothing. It offends no aspect of reality, nor seeks to twist it to appearances it likes. It merely looks, and waits, and judges not. He who would not forgive must judge, for he must justify his failure to forgive. But he who would forgive himself must learn to welcome truth exactly as it is.Do nothing, then, and let forgiveness show you what to do, through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior and Protector, strong in hope, and certain of your ultimate success. He has forgiven you already, for such is His function, given Him by God. Now must you share His function, and forgive whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as the Son of God.LESSON 221Peace To My Mind. Let All My Thoughts Be Still.Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my call and answer me.Now do we wait in quiet. God is here, because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent; to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His Son.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

In this podcast we will be talking about how to be a pessimist from the wisdom of Arthur Schopenhauer. He is mostly known for his famous book “The World as Will and Representation”. He is known as the ultimate pessimist and his idea reflects philosophical pessimism. So here are 7 ways you can follow in order to become a pessimist  from the wisdom of Arthur Schopenhauer -  01. Accept your limits 02. Accept that everything changes and decays 03. Learn to see suffering as the best teacher in life 04. Don't be blinded by love 05. Sacrifice pleasure to avoid pain 06. Limit your expectations 07. Find Happiness within yourself I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope these 7 ways you can follow in order to become a pessimist from the wisdom of Arthur Schopenhauer will add value to your life.   Arthur Schopenhauer was one of the greatest philosophers of all time. He lived from the end of the 18th to the beginning of the 19th century in Germany. His most important work was “The World As Will and Representation”. He was one of the most prominent figures of the philosophy of pessimism and the first great Western philosopher who was interested in Buddhism. The best way to understand his teachings is to analyze them through the eyes of the enlightened pessimism prevalent in Buddhist philosophy. Arthur Schopenhauer is known as the ultimate pessimist because he articulates a pessimistic worldview that questions life's meaning. He believed that the universe was fundamentally irrational and human beings are driven by a force called the Will, a basic force in the Universe, never satisfied, and we, the human beings, don't have much self-control to fight it. Schopenhauer argues that the best way to be happy is by ceasing to look for happiness and instead try to remove the unhappiness from our life. This idea reflects philosophical pessimism, which is not a psychological disposition, but rather a worldview. Philosophical pessimism suggests that it is always better to expect the worst in order to receive the best. By using the principles of philosophical pessimism, we can eliminate the irrational hopes and expectations we have in life and thus we can live more peacefully and happily.

The review process is in general not great.  Research says only 21% of your review reflects your actual performance. The other 79%? Reviewer preferences, interpretation differences, and who happened to see you shine—or not. One person's “excellent communicator” is another's “talks too much at meetings.”   Welcome to the land of subjectivity. And let's not forget the recency bias. Most of us can't remember what we had for lunch last week, let alone your Q1 wins. Performance reviews often rely heavily on the last six weeks—which means your January brilliance is now irrelevant. We start with a flawed process that can feel deeply personal, which as we know is a bad mix for our ease, meaning and joy at work. So what can we do? Before the review, ask: What's expected of me? What's the goal of this review? Do you want a response? When? During the review: Listen—sometimes that's enough. Keep your cool—even if your face betrays you. Ask questions—gently, curiously. Buy time—especially if you didn't see it coming. Hunt for the helpful—what's useful, what's noise? Craft your response—thanks, questions, or a plan. If you're underperforming—own it. Ask what improvement looks like. Show don't tell—words are easy, action is powerful. Create a plan—share it, follow up, stay engaged. If you're surprised by feedback, that's probably not failure—it's probably information. Maybe your boss doesn't give real-time feedback. Maybe expectations were never clearly shared. And there are times when we can be just not plugged in and self-aware - considering why we are surprised can be very helpful. And remember: this isn't just feedback on you. It's also a window into your boss, your team, and your company. There's data in how they deliver feedback, what they notice, and what they miss. So take a breath. Accept the review as just one piece of a much bigger picture. Learn what you can. Then, let it go, Elsa. Let it go.   GOOD READS Why You Might Want to Say Goodbye to the Annual Performance Review | Working Knowledge How to Respond to a Performance Review: 9 Tips Employees Need to Know — ManageBetter (32) How to Respond Effectively During Your Performance Review: A Guide to Standing Out and Driving Growth | LinkedIn 17 Phrases To Respond to Constructive Criticism, According to Psychologists - Parade Responding to Feedback You Disagree With Performance Reviews

Top 5 Ways to Be Better at Giving and Receiving Praise 1. Be Specific, Not GenericGiving: Instead of “Good job,” say “I really appreciated how you stepped up to lead the meeting today—it brought clarity and confidence to the whole team.”Receiving: Acknowledge it with gratitude and, if appropriate, reflect on what specifically helped you succeed.2. Be TimelyGiving: Praise is most powerful when it's fresh. Don't wait for formal reviews—speak up as soon as you notice something great.Receiving: Respond promptly and graciously. A simple “Thank you, that means a lot” goes a long way.3. Make It PersonalGiving: Tailor your praise to the individual's values or effort. People are more moved when the praise shows that you see them.Receiving: Don't deflect or downplay. Accept that someone noticed your contribution—own it with humility.4. Focus on Effort and ImpactGiving: Highlight the hard work, problem-solving, or collaboration that led to success—not just the outcome.Receiving: Recognize your role in the bigger picture, and consider how your work helped the team.5. Practice the Praise LoopGiving: Create a culture where praise flows in all directions—peer to peer, manager to team, team to leader.Receiving: Pay it forward. When you receive sincere praise, use that as a reminder to encourage someone else.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

If your parent has cancer, dementia, serious illness, or is just declining because they're getting older, you may feel the urge to help them as they get weaker.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes I Peed My Pants Following My Dreams August 7, 2025 | Episode 5154 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott shares a wild story from last Friday that involves a motorcycle, 97-degree heat, and a lesson he didn't see coming. What started as a simple ride to the Harley store for some new gear turned into an adventure that had him questioning his decision-making skills. But here's the thing—there's about ten lessons packed into this one experience. Sometimes following your passion comes with a price tag you weren't expecting, and that's perfectly okay. Featured Story Picture this: It's 1130 AM, 97 degrees with a heat index of 108, and Scott decides it's the perfect time to throw on jeans, boots, and a jacket for a motorcycle ride. What could go wrong? Well, after an hour of shopping in air conditioning, things took an unexpected turn that left Scott learning some humbling lessons about passion, preparation, and the fact that what feels mortifying to you is just another Tuesday for someone else. Important Points Living your passion means doing what you love NOW, not waiting until you're 70 to finally pursue what fires you up. Sometimes there's a price to pay upfront for following your passion, and that's part of the deal—embrace it instead of avoiding it. Whatever embarrassing or weird situation you're facing, remember it's "just another day" for somebody who's seen it all before. Memorable Quotes "You should turn into what you feel like you'd love to do and have the courage to do it." "I do not want you to live a whole life and then one day say when I'm 70, I'll do what I love to do. No, no, no, no, no, do it now." "Whatever feels weird for you, whatever you're going through right now, just remember, it's just another day for somebody." Scott's Three-Step Approach Stop putting off what you're passionate about—if it's calling you, answer the call today instead of making excuses. Accept that following your passion sometimes comes with unexpected challenges, but don't let that stop you from pursuing what you love. Remember that your most embarrassing moments are probably routine experiences for someone else, so don't let fear of looking foolish hold you back.

In this episode, I'm talking with clinical psychologist and author Alissa Jerud about her new book, Emotion Savvy Parenting.

Alissa shares her ART tools (Accept, Regulate, Tolerate), and we talk about strategies for staying grounded during emotional storms, including the ones that hit in very public places.  About Alissa Jerud, PhD Alissa Jerud, PhD is a mom of two kids, a licensed clinical psychologist, a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, and author of Emotion-Savvy Parenting: A Shame-Free Guide to Navigating Emotional Storms and Deepening Connection.

Dr. Jerud also trains other clinicians in exposure-based treatments and frequently gives workshops on anxiety, stress, mental health, parenting, and social support to companies large and small. Things you'll learn from this episode Why understanding the purpose of emotions matters for helping kids (and ourselves) live more fully and authentically How emotion-savvy parenting begins with our own emotional experience, not just managing our child's behavior Why acceptance is a powerful first step toward emotional regulation and meaningful change How mindfulness helps us observe emotions without judgment, so they don't take over our actions Why developing the skill to tolerate intense emotions can help us navigate parenting challenges with more calm and clarity How the cognitive triangle—linking thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—offers a helpful framework for understanding emotional reactions and building awareness Resources mentioned Dr. Alissa Jerud's website, The Art & Science of Emotions Emotion=Savvy Parenting: A Shame-Free Guide to Navigating Emotional Storms and Deepening Connection by Dr. Alissa Jerud Dialectical Behavioral Therapy or DBT Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT Learn more about your ad choices.

"What if I die before I have the chance to exist?" An existential crisis, or existential dread, can be described as persistent negative feelings and emotions linked to questioning the value of your life and how you are spending it. An existential crisis may result from intense feelings of despair as you consider questions like, "What is the point?” or “Why does any of this matter?” And these strong emotions can increase when your questions remain unanswerable. An existential crisis can happen to anyone, leading many to question their existence, identity and purpose in life. Experiencing an existential crisis may cause you to feel angry, helpless, lost, panicked and is usually accompanied by dread, anxiety, stress and depression; often to such a degree that they disturb your normal functioning in everyday life. But it doesn't have to be a bad thing or something to fear. Experiencing an existential crisis forces you to examine your life and consider “how can I show up in the world that means something to me?” Dr. Sara Kuburic is an existential psychotherapist, speaker, essayist, columnist, consultant, influencer and author of ‘It's On Me. Accept hard truths, discover your self, and change your life'. IT'S ON ME is a guide to identifying self-loss, and discovering the freedom that comes from taking responsibility for how we live. It offers an enlightening blueprint to find your own answers to the questions “who am I?” and “why am I here?” Known as the millennial therapist online (with over 1.7 million followers on Instagram), Dr. Sara believes that “in order to be who we truly are, we need to shelve who we are not.” Dr Sara talks about how her own existential crisis changed the trajectory of her entire life and put her on the path to a life of alignment, authenticity and purpose. Host Gabby and Dr. Sara also talk about the mental health ramifications of not living a life true to your beliefs and values… and how it's so easy to get lost in the labels and expectations of family, friends, work and society, so you don't even realise who you have become isn't who you are supposed to be. Dr. Sara is a passionate advocate for being the leading character of your own life. She believes we need to stop pretending and choose the truth. To all who feel lost, it's never too late to steer yourself home. *Note this episode is a repeat broadcast  To download the free My Possible Self App: https://mypossibleself.app.link/podcast To follow My Possible Self on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mypossibleself/ For all things Dr. Sara Kuburic: https://www.sara-kuburic.com/ To follow Dr. Sara Kuburic on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/millennial.therapist/  

This week we're discussing how to have the Courage to Accept a Different Reality  For solo parents, change is more than a season, it's a total life shift. And while we often focus on the big transitions, it's the small, everyday reminders that hit hardest: taking out the trash, folding the laundry alone, navigating milestones without a partner. The grief of a life that no longer exists can sneak up in the mundane and the meaningful. That's why today's episode is focused on one of the most essential and difficult truths we face as solo parents, accepting that life is different now and learning to live in that truth without losing hope. Today, we cover three main points: Acceptance is a process, not a one-time event. Our kids will experience milestones differently, and we must have the courage to notice. Embracing the new normal is key to healing but it doesn't mean we have to like it. This conversation is a tender reminder that none of us are meant to navigate this road alone. From solo parent groups to sacred stillness in your own bathtub, the healing comes when we stop pretending we're okay and let ourselves be exactly where we are.

Are you constantly worried about what others think of you? Do you find yourself over-explaining, people-pleasing, or censoring your truth just to be accepted? In this powerful episode, we uncover the science and psychology behind the deep human need for external validation — and why chasing approval is slowly draining your confidence, clarity, and peace.  Let's Break Down: *Why your brain craves acceptance (hint: it's wired into your survival system)  *How childhood conditioning trains you to abandon yourself to be liked *The connection between people-pleasing, fawning, and nervous system dysregulation *Why rejection feels like danger (even when it's not) *The high cost of living for approval — and how to stop This episode is for anyone who feels trapped in the loop of proving, performing, and perfecting just to feel “enough.” I'll give you the insight — and the tools — to stop living for applause and start living in alignment with who you truly are.

Listen to today's podcast... Life can get very complicated and stressful what with all of the ‘hats' we wear. We sometimes let others control our activities and determine our priorities.  So how do we simplify it so that our life is more manageable and enjoyable and we are more resilient? Realization and acceptance can be the first steps to gaining control.  Accept that it's impossible to do it all and it's all right if you don't, in fact, it's much better if you don't. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!  Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Simplify Your Life Week: Avoid blaming others and situations – WE have the ultimate decision on how OUR time will be spent. Develop and set your priorities and say ‘No' to those things which are not your priority. Planning and time management are essential skills. Prepare for the transition from work to home by planning your work-related activities for the next day before you leave the office.  Do not over-program yourself or your family. Make the morning routine as simple as possible, leaving yourself more than enough time for ‘emergencies'. Our stress can be negatively impacted by the way in which we organize our daily activities and routines, and by the organization or lack there of in our physical environment.  Simplifying routines and de-junking physical space can increase our efficiency, our effectiveness and can add to a sense of control which can help us create a calm and peaceful presence.

The WAIT method is a gentle, powerful way to navigate overwhelming emotions and regain your sense of calm. If you've ever felt hijacked by your feelings—swept up in anxiety, frustration, or sadness—this simple practice can help you pause, reflect, and respond with clarity. In the audiobook "The Emotionally Sensitive Person: Finding Peace When Your Emotions Overwhelm You," psychologist Karyn D. Hall introduces the WAIT method: Watch, Accept, Investigate, Take time. It's a mindful, step-by-step approach to help you break free from reactive patterns and build emotional resilience. The post The WAIT Method appeared first on Your Great Journey.

Pay attention. Focus on your breathing. Live in the moment. Accept yourself. Do you have a self? Focus on that self. And so on. This is, of course, the practice of mindfulness meditation, which seems to be everywhere: in schools, at work, in apps, and all over the scientific literature.Do any of the claimed effects of mindfulness meditation (relieving your depression! Changing the structure of your brain!) actually add up?

In this empowering episode, Tina Tower takes listeners through the 10 universal problems that every entrepreneur faces—no matter where they are on their journey. More importantly, she offers clearly actionable steps for overcoming each obstacle, helping you to anticipate and navigate the challenges that are simply part of the entrepreneurial “game.” Tina breaks down everything from the struggle to clarify your vision and inconsistent sales, to overcoming fears around visibility and burnout from trying to do it all yourself. You'll finish this episode with a renewed mindset, practical strategies, and encouragement to treat business as a series of solvable challenges—and maybe even learn to enjoy the process! Key Topics Covered: No Clear Vision Many entrepreneurs are flying by the seat of their pants. Tina shares how crucial it is to define your version of success and reverse-engineer the path to get there. Poor Time Management Being busy ≠ being productive. Use ruthless prioritization and weekly planning to stay focused on high-impact tasks—those that bring joy, enhance customer experience, or make you money. Inconsistent Sales Avoid “feast or famine” cycles by building predictable sales systems. Balance launches with evergreen marketing efforts and build your email list continuously. Weak Financial Controls Know your numbers! Regularly monitor revenue, expenses, and the sources of your income. Use targets and cash flow forecasting to avoid surprises. Fear of Visibility Fear often stands between you and growth. Start small with visibility—like Instagram stories—and build your courage through practice, focusing on who you serve rather than yourself. Undercharging for Services Price based on the value and transformation you provide—not your time or number of lessons. Align your pricing with your confidence and competitor analysis. Hiring Challenges Don't hire too early or too late. Systemize and outsource tasks thoughtfully, and aim to hire people who can take full ownership of their responsibilities. Shiny Object Syndrome Stay focused! Resist the urge to constantly pivot. Rinse and repeat your core offers at least three times before considering a major change. Not Enough Thinking Time Schedule regular “CEO” thinking time to evaluate what's really moving the needle and to course-correct as needed. Trying to Do it All Alone Building a support system—both in your business and at home—is essential for sustainability. Delegate, automate, and eliminate wherever possible. Business will always present new challenges, but every obstacle is 100% solvable when you approach problems as opportunities to level up. Accept these challenges as part of the entrepreneur's journey, and remember: enjoy the process!   Resources & Mentions: Monday.com (for dashboards & finance tracking) Tim Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek (on automating, delegating, eliminating) Pareto Principle (80/20 rule)   Where to find Tina: Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder

It's reorg season…again. And for many companies, it always is. Every 12 to 18 months, another wave of layoffs, leadership swaps, and org chart redraws rolls through the system. And yet, little changes. Strategy stalls. Trust erodes. Work doesn't get better, just messier. So why do so many organizations keep reaching for the reorg lever first? This week, Rodney and Sam unpack the seductive logic (and systemic failure) of reorgs as a change strategy. They dig into why structure work always feels like the fastest, most visible move a leader can make and why it so rarely delivers. Along the way, they explore the very real fallout of these moves on culture, trust, and performance, and offer smarter starting points for those considering a shake-up. -------------------------------- Let's work together: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theready.com/working-together⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Three of your most valuable assets are your inherent spiritual powers of faith, appreciation, and grace. And all three are verbs: verbs of mind action that bring about blessings and create miracles. When working toward a goal, the space between beginnings and endings can feel lonely and long. When you get started, you feel filled with optimism and zeal. When you reach completion, you feel satisfied and proud. Between those two poles is when it's necessary to actively trust that God is at work on the unseen plane. Appreciation is a great way to activate this trust. Appreciation of what already is and appreciation that God is active in all your affairs, is your secret to success. God helps those who help themselves to His help (by believing in it). Grace means the goodness of God is being made manifest, blessing you beyond your efforts and sparing you the worst effects of your missteps. Don't worry about how your good will come about, just live in the joyful expectation that it will come about. On this episode, Darrell and Ed discuss how to keep your three most valuable assets ignited. And, during the second segment, today's special guest Alicia Jackson encourages listeners to enthusiastically utilize their powers of faith, appreciation, and grace.

In her letter to shareholders, CEO Mary Barra emphasized GM's resilience, stating:   To strengthen its domestic manufacturing base and reduce import exposure, GM announced $4 billion in new U.S. factory investments in June. The plan will expand capacity by 300,000 units across key high-margin models — pickups, SUVs, and crossovers — at plants in Michigan, Kansas, and Tennessee. “This will help us satisfy unmet customer demand, greatly reduce our tariff exposure, and capture upside opportunities as we launch new models,” Barra wrote. Currently, GM imports about half the vehicles it sells in the U.S., primarily from Mexico and South Korea. In contrast, rival Ford produces about 80% of its U.S. vehicles domestically. Ford is expected to report second-quarter earnings next week. Meanwhile, Stellantis, which owns Jeep, said tariffs cost it €300 million in the first half of the year and warned that results in the second half of 2025 will be significantly affected. Shares in Stellantis and Ford both fell about 1% on Tuesday morning.

President Donald Trump is ambivalent to the trade partnership with Canada. This moot-status reality is why there's no substantive engagement. ‘No deal' -until USMCA redo- is a win for President Trump. The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is set to expire on July 1, 2036, 16 years after its entry into force on July 1, 2020, unless all three countries agree to extend it for another 16-year term. A joint review is scheduled for July 1, 2026   in July 2026, during the scheduled joint review of the USMCA,
