Podcasts about Anticipating

This is Matt Reustle. Today we are breaking down the cable giant Charter Communications. Tony Coniaris and John Sitarz of Harris Associates join us for this deep dive on the cable market and Charter's business. We've spent a big portion of the first half of the conversation outlining the history of cable, the asset itself, what it does differently versus some of the alternatives, and then we flash forward to how the industry is operating today. The idea of cord cutting has become very consensus, but it's not very obvious in terms of how that actually impacts a business like Charter and its flagship product Spectrum. We go into some of the case studies that have recently occurred and then tie it all back in terms of the business model. There's so many different lessons that you can take out here thanks to Tony and John.

The Christmas Season is here! This week, Brian Barr kicked off our Christmas series entitled “Anticipating Christ.” The Christmas holiday is all about celebrating the coming of Jesus. But when Jesus came, He taught (to everyone's surprise) that He would come twice. In His first coming, He was slain like a lamb for our sins; in His second coming He will fully deal with evil like a lion. Christmas isn't just about celebrating Jesus coming as a baby, but also about anticipating His mighty return as savior and judge of the whole world. It can be easy to get caught up in the sentimentality of the Christmas season (which isn't bad in itself), but anyone who has experienced suffering knows that sentimentality isn't enough for a hurting soul. The promise of Christ's return is! When we learn to root ourselves in the reality that Jesus will put all things right, we can face any temporary suffering with unshakable hope.2 Peter 3:1-14 You can join our OneLife Sunday morning gatherings via livestream at 9am and 11am CST every Sunday morning.

We've been looking ahead to the new year in recent episodes, but today we will address the fact that not everyone feels excited about the new year. Some of you have had a tough year and need time to process or heal from it. Or, maybe you are in a big season of doubt or confusion as an artist. All of this can impact how we feel going into a new year. Join us for Episode 56 of the Thriving Artists Podcast, How to Anticipate A Great Year Ahead (Even When You Have Your Doubts), as we discuss a few simple suggestions for bringing some positive anticipation into your life this time of year, whether you are feeling excited or not.  Jamie and Kaylan's Tips for Anticipating a Great Year Ahead: Enter into Deeper Awareness: Do some reflection and write about your past year. Writing how you really feel and reflecting with honesty can help you find a lot of gratitude. This can bring you into a deeper understanding for where you are currently at with things in your life.  Set Firmer Boundaries: Many of us struggle with stressful anticipation and doubt because we are actually experiencing a lack of boundaries or security in our present moment. Ask yourself where you need to set some firmer boundaries and what is contributing to your stress right now. Evaluate where you can carve out more time and space for yourself. Move Forward with Self-Compassion: You have done, and you are doing SO MUCH dear artist. You deserve a medal, a gold star, and a cash prize just for being an artist. It is such hard work. Please be kind to yourself this time of year and always. Recognize that you are human and you deserve softness and grace and understanding. As always, we are here for you, we are cheering you on, and we believe in the work you are doing as thriving artists!  Join the Thrive Together Network to plug into our programming for 2024!

Most of us would identify as experts at anticipating problems. We expend a lot of our time and energy thinking about what could go wrong, or how something could be challenging. This is a powerful skill that's part and parcel of creating your dream life, but it's also one that can be extremely limiting when left unquestioned.   Living a satisfied AF life is about pursuing and achieving big goals, but it's also about enjoying every moment without being constantly terrorized by your brain. If you're ready to create positive momentum in creating the life, career, and relationships you want, join me this week to discover how to stop engaging in the habit of anticipating problems and begin engaging in the practice of anticipating delight instead.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.korilinn.com/161

Most of life is experienced in the past tense. I get aroused remembering things I've experienced, seen, or read. This is particularly true of spanking. Anticipating or remembering a spanking is a turn-on. Experiencing it isn't. We seem to be programmed to be fueled by the past. This makes sense.

5 YR Old Calls 911 After Finding Parents Shot To Death HEARTBREAKING - FULL 911 CALL Parents Shot, 5-Year-Old Calls 911 March 31, 2005 — -- A young child was rescued from her house by Florida deputies early Monday morning, after calling 911 and telling the dispatcher her parents had been shot by an attacker. "My mommy and daddy … there is blood coming out of my dad's mouth and he fell off the bed," the girl said on the 911 tape. "I don't know quite how to characterize what you hear in that 5-year-old's voice," Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson told "Good Morning America." "Her composure is extraordinary given what she had just seen. She was an amazing little girl. The information she gave us and the manner she gave it to us, we wish we could get that out of adults." The girl told the operator her age and that she had a dog named Liza. The dispatcher calmly spoke to her while sending authorities to her home. Her mother, Julie Hernlen, 31, was dead when they arrived, and her father, Aeneas Hernlen, 29, was taken to the hospital and died the next day. The attacker, David Edward Johnson, 33, believed the couple were responsible for his arrest in November on charges of growing marijuana and possession of steroids, according to the sheriff's office. Officials said the couple were not involved in his arrest, but had requested an injunction against their would-be attacker in January. Johnson committed suicide at his home later Monday. 'Amazing Little Girl' The attack occurred in the middle of the night with the sound of a gunshot waking the young girl. The sheriff praised the dispatcher, who is also a mother, for remaining focused while listening to a child in a dangerous situation. The dispatcher kept the girl on the phone until the authorities arrived at her house and is heard asking her questions in a portion of the tape. CHILD: I'm 5 years old and I have a dog in a house. OPERATOR: OK baby, OK. Let me get someone right over to you. OPERATOR: OK, and what made you wake up tonight? CHILD: There was, I think I heard a gunshot. OPERATOR: Who has a gun in the house? CHILD: I don't see a gun but I'm scared. OPERATOR: Oh sweetheart! I will not let anything happen to you. Anticipating a Threat? Police said the Hernlens were apparently aware that David Edward Johnson posed a threat to their safety. Julie Hernlen was preparing to graduate from Dayton Beach Community College this spring and then pursue a law degree, according to reports in The Daytona Beach News-Journal. She spoke to an instructor and expressed concerns that Johnson was ruining her life, the newspaper reported. In early January, the couple was denied an injunction against Johnson. In an interview with "Good Morning America" Circuit Judge Richard Graham said he was "very upset" when he was informed about the slayings. The judge recalled the request for the injunction arriving by fax with very little information. "Had I had more information, I think I would have granted it," said Graham. But the sheriff explained that the injunction may not have prevented the attack. "I don't really believe it would have in a case like this," said Johnson. "An injunction is fine for someone who is willing to accept the rules. This individual here was set on taking action," he said. "The only way you could have prevented it would be to put him in jail and keep him in jail. There was nothing there to do that. When someone is bound and determined they are going to do a criminal act, it is hard to stop it." The girl was not harmed physically and is staying with relatives. Johnson described her as doing OK for now. "At 5 years old, I don't think they really understand death yet," said Johnson. "We are more concerned about the long-term well-being of the little girl. She is a smart little girl."

In Episode 217 of Small Business Talk, Cathy Smith explores the essential principles of building and maintaining strong client relationships, a key factor in the success of coaching and small business ventures. Cathy emphasizes the importance of active listening, which involves deeply understanding clients' needs, concerns, and feedback. This approach fosters trust and a deeper connection. Consistent communication is highlighted as crucial for keeping clients informed and building a relationship based on reliability. Cathy advises on the strategy of underpromising and overdelivering to exceed client expectations, enhancing their perception of your dedication and reliability. Personalisation in business interactions is stressed as a necessity, with Cathy explaining how tailoring your approach to each client's unique challenges and goals can strengthen the relationship. Transparency is another key principle discussed, with an emphasis on being open and honest, even when delivering challenging news. This builds trust and client loyalty. Anticipating clients' needs and addressing them proactively is also covered, demonstrating a commitment to their success and preventing potential misunderstandings. Cathy discusses the importance of seeking and acting on client feedback. This practice is essential for continuous improvement and shows clients that their opinions are valued and integral to the business. Cathy wraps up by reiterating that these strategies are not just beneficial but critical for building lasting, meaningful client relationships that can propel a small business or coaching venture to long-term success.

New forecasts for weather patterns could help the solar and wind industries make better investment decisions in the long term.Climate trends are accelerating rapidly. Global temperatures hovered consistently at around 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels from January to August. Then in September, they shot up to 1.8 degrees. Dr Zeke Hausfather, research scientist at Berkeley Earth, opined in a recent NYT piece that global warming has actually accelerated in the last 15 years, rather than continuing at a gradual pace. The effects of climate change are no longer something for the next generation to worry about; they're being felt here, and now. As a result, it's crucial to deploy renewables as quickly and efficiently as possible. This involves continuing to invest in the two largest sectors – wind and solar. There's a strong correlation between the effectiveness of these energy sources and the weather predictions we make to inform our long-term planning and investment decisions. Anticipating and planning for variability in supply and demand comes from analyzing historical weather and climate data. On the Interchange Recharged today, David Banmiller is joined by Rob Cirincione, founder and CEO of Sunairio. They have a model which they say can make better predictions for solar and wind demand and supply, helping the industry to make better investment decisions and deploy more quickly. Traditionally, historical data has been the primary tool for making predictions about future weather events and their possible impact on supply-demand imbalances. Historical data has its limits and does not always provide an accurate representation of future weather events. With climate change accelerating faster than we thought, and with a limited amount of historical data available, there's a need for modeled projections to fill this gap.For instance, in the solar industry, historical average models like the typical meteorological year (TMY) are used to predict future performance and returns. However, the assumption that the climate is the same as it was when the model was developed is flawed. Therefore, it's essential to continually measure and observe the impact of climate trends on irradiance and thus, the performance and returns of solar projects.Rob explores with David the tools used to predict weather-driven variability in energy, what the solar industry currently uses to predict long-term performance, how to apply the predictive model Sunairio is developing to make better investment decisions, and how progress with decarbonization efforts could impact future forecasts.Subscribe to the show on your podcast platform of choice and visit woodmac.com/podcasts to listen back to previous episodes.
