Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system, closest to the sun, taking a magical 88 days for a year. It travels fast but spins slowly – a day being 1.5 times as long as a year – with a quirky, egg-shaped orbit.Small with a big character. That kind of sums up mythical Hermes (Mercury) who, on the first day of his life, invents music, fire and ritual, steals Apollo's cattle and snuggles back into his blanket like nothing happened. To get in touch with this endlessly paradoxical being we begin with his Orphic Hymn: an invocation of the god. Only, of course, there isn't one hymn but two. Already he has found a way to 'twin' himself. The first hymn gives us a sense of his role as messenger – his 'day job' – the second as psychopomp: guide of souls who assists us through the many deaths of our lives. That's the thing about Hermes/Mercury. We meet him at the threshold. Even astrologically he is the third in a set of three. He revises where we've been and sets us up for where we're going next. Of course, being an episode about words themselves, there had to be some poetry involved. Dylan Thomas takes us in with On the Words in Poetry – essentially a love song dedicated to the magic of words themselves. And then, to close us out, a poem called, if this isn't too on the nose, Magic Words. ReferencesHomeric Hymn to Hermes — Theoi Classical Texts Library Orphic Hymns — Apostolos N.

Did Life Arrive From Space? The Murchison Meteorite & LithopanspermiaOn September 28, 1969, a blazing fireball exploded over Murchison, Australia, showering the countryside with roughly 100 kilograms of ancient extraterrestrial rock. Coming right around the time laboratories worldwide were outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment for Apollo 11 moon samples, scientists immediately analyzed the freshly fallen meteorite and discovered a startling revelation: it contained dozens of amino acids—the fundamental building blocks of life. Curiously, alongside the 20 standard amino acids used by terrestrial biology, the rock contained dozens of completely alien amino acids unknown to life on Earth. This proved that space is capable of producing intricate organic building blocks through abiotic processes long before planets even form, raising a profound question: could the seeds of life itself travel across the cosmos?This hypothesis, known as lithopanspermia, challenges our common assumptions about the fragility of life in space. Physical evidence confirms that rocks are routinely ejected from planets like Mars by asteroid impacts and eventually land on Earth. Furthermore, shock experiments and extreme organisms—such as Deinococcus radiodurans and tardigrades—demonstrate that microbes can survive the extreme pressures of ejection, cosmic radiation, the vacuum of space, and even atmospheric entry, shielded inside insulating rock. While we have not yet found definitive proof of alien life, early planetary conditions raise the eerie possibility that life began on a wet, ancient Mars and seeded a young Earth.

Today, we journey to the center of the ancient Greek world to uncover the secrets, power, and mystical rituals of the Oracle of Delphi. From the sacred grounds at the foot of Mount Parnassus and the mythic origins of Apollo's shrine, to the mysterious Pythia and the intoxicating vapors said to induce divine visions, we explore how one sanctuary shaped the fate of empires and guided history's greatest rulers. We also dive into the high-stakes politics of who truly controlled Delphi, the legendary prophecies that tested King Croesus and foresaw the defense of Athens, the famous words spoken of Socrates, and the eventual decline of the ancient world's most revered oracle. Welcome to History Camp!

The swan has carried more symbolic weight in European tradition than almost any other animal — beauty understood as divine since at least the Greeks, grace that the old stories treated as a kind of power in disguise. The Moon in Carolina host Shelby Bundy traces the folklore from Apollo's sacred bird to the Irish Children of Lir, through the belief that swans arrive from the Otherworld in the dark months of the year, and the quiet folk tradition that a person cannot die peacefully on a pillow stuffed with swan feathers. 

Leon Black is the founder and former CEO of Apollo Global Management, a leading alternate asset management firm with approximately $1 trillion under management. Black stepped down as CEO in March 2021 when the extent of his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein became public. In particular Black's payment to Epstein of more than $150 million continues to garner questions. The book explores Leon Black's career, the growth of Apollo and the rise of New Wall Street.

A Apollo 13 colocou três astronautas e dezenas de engenheiros em Houston diante de uma tarefa aparentemente pessimista: diante de uma nave avariada imaginar tudo o que ainda poderia dar errado. A diferença é que cada desastre imaginado precisava terminar numa providência. Partindo dessa história, investigamos nossa capacidade de construir futuros dentro da cabeça e a fronteira entre preocupação e preparação. O episódio passa pelo pensamento episódico futuro, pelo ensaio mental e pelas armadilhas da visualização positiva para chegar a uma ideia menos confortável: imaginar o futuro pode ser útil, desde que a gente volte dele trazendo alguma coisa para fazer no presente. Host: Luciano Pires - @lucianopires – lucianopires.com.br Takeaways• A capacidade de imaginar futuros ruins pode nos proteger, mas se torna sofrimento antecipado quando não produz nenhuma resposta ou ação concreta.• O ensaio mental é mais útil quando simula processos, obstáculos e comportamentos do que quando se limita a fantasiar o resultado desejado. • Não controlamos o futuro pela imaginação, mas podemos usá-la para chegar mais preparados às situações que ainda não aconteceram.

Apollo 13 never made it to the moon. It also brought all of humanity together, set a record for the farthest distance from Earth, and produced some of the greatest problem-solving under pressure the world has ever seen.Eric Hanson, CMO at Mitel, joins us to dig into what B2B marketers can steal from the Apollo 13 playbook - and the 2024 documentary that reframed the story entirely. We cover why the clearest mission you can give your team is your most powerful tool, how to break down silos between marketing, sales, and product, why starting with the business need beats starting with the technology every time, and how going contrary to the mainstream is still the fastest path to getting your market's attention.About our guest, Eric HansonEric Hanson is CMO at Mitel, a communications platform helping organizations enable high-value and critical use cases across a hybrid and on-premises world. He is not a typical CMO: he started his career as an inside seller, moved into enterprise sales, co-founded a visual effects studio in San Francisco that worked on major motion pictures and global brand campaigns - including the design bible for Avatar's future interface - before finding his way into B2B marketing leadership. He has held senior roles at companies including DocuSign and brings a rare mix of creative, commercial, and strategic instincts to every team he leads.What B2B Marketers Can Learn From Apollo 13When the mission is clear, the impossible becomes possible. Eric's central argument is that the best B2B marketing isn't really about marketing at all - it's about creating the conditions where people come together around a common cause and do things nobody thought possible. He connects it directly to Apollo 13: "It brought all of humanity together, even for a brief moment. And so often with the way you think about what happens in the workplace, so much of it is about whether you can create that sense of a common cause, that common mission. Because the highest performing organizations, it's when you have that shared vision, that clarity of your mission, that people really come together and the impossible kind of becomes possible." His practical version of this is what he calls the triple threat: treating marketing, sales, and product not as separate functions with a waterfall handoff, but as a single coordinated strategy. When the foxhole includes everyone, you move faster, you adapt better, and you find things nobody would have found alone.Start with the business need, not the technology. Eric has a sharp way of describing the most common mistake in B2B selling: show up and throw up. Lead with the technology, the architecture, the speeds and feeds - and lose the room before you ever got it. His counterpoint is a story about a sales engineer calling on a CIO for an F1 team. The engineer launched straight into the tech, and the CIO cut him off: "If you can tell me how to make the car go faster, I'm all ears." Eric's version of this in practice is to start with the market dynamics, the specific pressures facing your ideal customer - whether it's a hospital struggling with patient flow or a multinational navigating digital sovereignty - and then work backwards to the technology. "The market can't always connect the dots on what the art of the possible is," he says. "That's our job." The faster horses problem is a marketing problem as much as it's a product problem.Tell an old story in a new, more human way. Ian's biggest takeaway from the Apollo 13 documentary is the audacity of director Peter Middleton, who looked at one of the most famous stories in American history - already immortalized in an acclaimed Tom Hanks film - and decided to tell it again. Differently. Without talking-head interviews, leaning entirely into archival footage, centering the human stakes over the mission mechanics. The result is a documentary that feels immediate rather than retrospective, and that lands differently than the movie despite telling the same events. Ian's takeaway for B2B marketers: "Every story that you think has been told can be retold in a different way." Eric adds the business version of this: the fastest path to getting your market's attention is to go contrary to the mainstream. For Mitel, that meant spending two years pushing the concept of digital sovereignty when everyone else was selling cloud. "I wouldn't say we planted it," Eric says. "But we anticipated it. And now the market is saying: yeah, you're right."Make it work with what you have - then adapt. The most memorable problem-solving moment in Apollo 13 isn't the drama of the oxygen tank explosion. It's the engineers in Houston dumping a pile of plastic bags, duct tape, and mismatched filters on a table and being told to build an air scrubber before the crew runs out of oxygen. No extra supplies. No time to order parts. Just: here's what you have, figure it out. Eric connects this directly to the George Lucas documentary series Light and Magic - where ILM built motion-control cameras from scratch because they didn't exist yet, pulling in motorcycle mechanics and stop-motion photographers to solve a problem nobody had solved before. And then he connects both to B2B marketing: "You read and react to what's happening in the market, and you try to optimize for that. Whether you're talking about your website performance and the emergence of AEO and how SEO dropped off a cliff overnight - you don't sit there and admire the problem. You go figure out a creative way to work around it." The crew of Apollo 13 didn't get home because they had perfect conditions. They got home because they broke the problem into the next three steps, solved those, and then took on the next three."The highest performing organizations - it's when you have that shared vision, that clarity of your mission, that people really come together and the impossible kind of becomes possible. I think about that every day. How can I create that type of environment that actually breaks down silos and makes people think about not how they've always done things - but how do we solve this problem that seems insurmountable?"- Eric HansonTime Stamps[1:38] Meet Eric Hanson, CMO at Mitel[1:55] Why Apollo 13?[3:09] About Mitel and Eric's Eclectic Path to CMO[4:23] Meredith Explains the Documentary: Apollo 13: Survival[6:58] What the Documentary Gets Right That the Movie Couldn't[7:54] Was Apollo 13 a Failure?

  On September 11, 2001, hundreds of working dogs and their handlers answered the call. They searched through twisted steel and concrete, guided people out of the World Trade Center, recovered those who were lost, and offered comfort to firefighters and recovery workers during one of the darkest moments in American history. In this special episode of Dog Works Radio, Michele Forto remembers the dogs of 9/11 and the handlers who trusted them to do extraordinary work under extraordinary conditions. The episode shares stories of dogs including Sirius, Roselle, Salty, Apollo, Trakr, and Bretagne, while also exploring the lasting effect September 11 had on search-and-rescue training, veterinary research, and how we understand working dogs. The episode also closes with a personal connection. Robert and Michele later named a litter of their own sled dogs after 9/11 rescue dogs, including Tikva and Bretagne, giving this remembrance a connection that extends well beyond the history books.

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 210 Ron Howard - Director In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with director Ron Howard (AVEDON, APOLLO 13, A BEAUTIFUL MIND). Ron has worked professionally in film and television since the age of 4, and he reflects on his life and career throughout the episode, from chewing fake glass with Yul Brenner as a child actor to directing a wide variety of features and documentaries for almost 50 years. A graduate of the Roger Corman movie factory, Ron reveals what he learned about leadership and collaboration while directing GRAND THEFT AUTO, his directorial debut, under Roger's guidance, and we discuss whether any modern equivalent exists for filmmakers today as a proving ground. Ron also shares how he pushed himself early on to always be creating, and we discuss the creation of several of his films and what he aims for in every movie he makes. We later ask what draws him to a potential project, and we discuss his foray into directing documentaries and how it differs from shooting fiction. We worked with Ron on A BEAUTIFUL MIND, and we had a wonderful time catching up with him. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure ⁠

Ortygia is a small island forming the historical center of the Sicilian city of Siracusa. While already inhabited by native Sicels in ancient times, Siracusa became an ancient superpower after Greek colonists settled there in the 8th century BCE and became part of Magna Graecia. In fact, Ortygia contains many of the city's oldest landmarks, including the Greek Temple of Apollo, the Fountain of Arethusa, and the Temple of Athena, which is today the Cathedral of Siracusa. It was later home to the legendary mathematician and inventor, Archimedes.

Hosts Gene Mikulka, Mark Ratterman, and Heather Smith review ISS crew transitions, wildfire threats to NASA's Deep Space Network, growing criticisms of the Artemis program architecture, and a 1960s navigation satellite still transmitting signals today on episode 1805 of Talking Space. ISS Crew Rotations & Soyuz History * Soyuz MS-28 Departure: The crew prepared to wrap up a 241-day stay aboard the International Space Station, with undocking scheduled for 3:03 AM and a landing in Kazakhstan at 6:25 AM.
 * Soyuz MS-29 Arrival: A fresh crew arrived following an 8-hour fast-track rendezvous, bringing NASA astronaut Dr. Anil Menon alongside Cosmonaut Anna Kikina and Commander Pyotr Dubrov.
 * Historic Visit: The launch marked the first visit by a NASA Administrator to the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan in eight years.
 * Soyuz Legacy: Continuously refined since its ill-fated 1967 debut, the Soyuz vehicle remains the longest-operating human-rated spacecraft design in spaceflight history.
 Madrid Deep Space Network Wildfire * Evacuation: Severe wildfires in Spain forced the emergency evacuation of the Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex (37 miles / 65 km west of Madrid) on July 24.
 * Damage Assessment: Onsite inspections on July 25 confirmed that fire damage was restricted to surrounding vegetation and pavement, leaving the primary antenna dishes and buildings structurally intact.
 * Redundant Operations: Spacecraft communications were seamlessly rerouted to sister stations in Goldstone, California, and Canberra, Australia, ensuring no loss of deep-space science data. See link to Deep Space Network Now for real time status. Artemis Program Concerns & Starship Testing * Bridenstine Criticisms: Former NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine publicly warned that Artemis's complex architecture—potentially requiring up to 15 orbital refueling launches per mission—lacks Apollo's single-launch simplicity and risks long-term delays.
 * Lander & Suit Delays: The hosts highlighted that Artemis III lacks a flight-ready, flyable lunar lander and fully integrated spacesuits, creating bottlenecks for upcoming landing schedules.
 * Starship Test Flight: SpaceX's Ship 40 achieved a successful soft splashdown and satellite payload deployment, though its Super Heavy booster experienced engine anomalies during the backburn phase.
 * Dismantled Oversight: Key advisory bodies like the NASA Advisory Council (NAC) and various science analysis groups have been defunded or disbanded, limiting independent technical feedback.
 Transit 5B5 "Zombie" Satellite * Mission Background: Launched on December 28, 1964, via a Thor-Able rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Transit 5B5 provided pre-GPS Doppler navigation for U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarines.
 * Nuclear Power: Powered by a SNAP-3 Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) fueled by Plutonium-238, the microwave-sized satellite continues transmitting its navigation signal at 136.658 MHz after more than 60 years in polar orbit. * 5B5 Links: See Space Daily for their article about 5B5 and SIGIDWIKI for audio samples of several 5B5 signals Host: Gene Mikulka Panelists/Editors: Mark Ratterman, Heather Smith

He was archbishop of Antioch at the time of the wicked Emperor Numerian. Once the Emperor came to Antioch and attempted to enter a church where Babylas was serving. Coming to the door, the Archbishop forbade the Emperor, as a pagan and a shedder of innocent blood, to enter the house where the True God was worshipped. Retreating in humiliation, the Emperor determined to take his revenge. Shortly after he had Babylas imprisoned along with several Christian children. Babylas was made to watch the beheading of each of the children. Having given them encouragement he submitted himself to beheading. At his own request he was buried in the chains with which he had been bound.   After the establishment of Christianity in the Roman Empire, the Emperor Gallus had a church built in honor of Babylas near the site of a temple to Apollos at Daphne, outside Antioch. (This was where, according to pagan legend, the maiden Daphne had been turned into a tree to escape the lust of Apollos). When Julian the Apostate came to Antioch in 362 to consult a famous oracle there, he found that the oracle had been deprived of its power by the presence of a Christian church nearby. He ordered the relics of St Babylas to be dug up and removed from the Church. As soon as this had been done a thunderbolt destroyed the shrine of Apollo, which Julian did not dare to rebuild. Saint John Chrysostom, then Archbishop of Antioch, preached a sermon on these events within a generation after their occurrence.

In part two of this deep dive into 2026 consumer confidence, Patrick Donohoe, CEO of Paradigm Life, and Gary dig into what the numbers actually mean, and whether current challenges like housing costs, inflation, energy, and AI make America's 250th year the end of the American experiment. It doesn't. The future is so bright you need to wear shades. Gary opens with why summer is prime moving and home-buying season, why questions about recession and AI are on everyone's mind right now, and why he remains the glass-half-full voice in this conversation. He leans on the Apollo 13 story, the carbon dioxide scrubber built from spare parts on the fly, as a reminder of what humans do when a problem has never been solved before. Then he and Patrick break down the consumer confidence index itself: what it actually measures, how reliable it is, who uses it and why, and where the real opportunity sits underneath the headline number. About the Guest Patrick Donohoe is CEO of Paradigm Life, where he leads the company's mission of helping clients overcome financial challenges through proven, economically sound, and time-tested strategies. Since 2007, Paradigm Life has guided over 8,000 clients nationwide toward greater financial independence, helping them build and follow a path to thrive personally and professionally.

In a series of provocative essays encompassing Marilyn Monroe, the myth of Apollo and Daphne, octopuses and girlbosses, reluctant heterosexuals, lesbian separatists, and anti-work cats, Sophie Lewis, author of Enemy Feminisms, Abolish the Family, and Full Surrogacy Now, seeks to put the femme back into feminism. In Femmephilia, Sophie Lewis makes the case for the vital importance of politicized femme-ness: a feminism that is self-consciously artificial, extravagant in its erotic and political appetites, and staunchly anti-work, abolitionist, and utopian. She was in conversation with novelist and poet, Keiran Goddard, author of Hourglass and I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning. You can buy a copy of Femmephilia from the London Review Bookshop.

Leon Black was subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee in the middle of his closed-door testimony about Jeffrey Epstein after he refused to answer questions about possible non-disclosure agreements involving women connected to Epstein. Chairman James Comer said lawmakers wanted the NDAs to determine whether Epstein was involved in writing them, arranging them, funding them, or using them to silence women in his orbit. One subpoena demands the NDA records, and another requires Black to return for videotaped testimony under oath on July 16. Black's lawyer, Susan Estrich, blasted the move as a “planned political stunt” and said Epstein had no involvement with any NDAs, whether they exist or not.Black told lawmakers he had no role in Epstein's sex-trafficking crimes, no knowledge of Epstein's abuse, and never paid Epstein for access to women. He repeated that he hired Epstein for tax and estate planning work, saying Epstein “solved a massive estate problem” and that he believed the fees were partly tax-deductible, even though the total eventually came to about $158 million. Black said Epstein deceived him, describing the relationship as “I knew Jekyll” and “I didn't know Hyde,” while also pointing to an Apollo-commissioned Dechert review that found no evidence he participated in Epstein's crimes. The committee's focus, however, is now moving beyond the old explanation about tax advice and into whether Black's private legal arrangements with women intersected with Epstein's network.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House committee subpoenas Leon Black during Jeffrey Epstein testimonyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

AI CapEx is on track to reach roughly $700 billion at the four largest hyperscalers this year, and equity analyst Irena Petkovic breaks down where all that money is going and what has to be true for it to earn a return. She explains how data centers turned from cost centers into revenue-producing AI factories, the four ways hyperscalers monetize compute, and how the token economy actually works. She then weighs the early evidence of returns against the risks around token pricing, debt financing, and public backlash, and describes how the team positions the portfolio around it. 0:00 - Introduction: The $700 Billion AI CapEx Question 1:29 - How Big Is the Spend? Apollo, Telecom, and Railroads 4:11 - Data Centers as AI Factories: From Cost Center to Revenue 5:53 - Four Ways Hyperscalers Monetize Compute 7:10 - The Token Economy Explained 11:26 - Early Evidence of Returns on AI Investment 14:39 - The Bear Case: Token Prices, Debt, and Backlash 18:49 - Positioning the Portfolio Around AI 20:35 - Outro & Subscribe   Highlights: Hyperscaler AI CapEx of about $700 billion this year is a scale rivaled historically only by the railroads. Capital intensity at Microsoft, Meta, Google, and Amazon has jumped from 5-10% of revenue to upwards of 45%. A high return on invested capital justifies spending down free cash flow rather than protecting it. The data center is now a revenue-producing AI factory that turns electricity and chips into sellable tokens. Compute is monetized four ways: GPU rental, productivity products, enhancing own businesses, and selling tokens. Early returns look encouraging, with sub-three-year hardware payback cited and demand exceeding supply. Risks to watch are token prices falling faster than volumes and a shift toward debt-funded build outs.   Host: Rob Campbell, CFA, Mawer Institutional Portfolio Manager Guest: Irena Petkovic, CFA, Mawer Equity Analyst   This episode is available for download anywhere you get your podcasts.

We continue our coverage of The Odyssey with a focus on proper sacrifice and hospitality rules. As we cannot read the entire epic, there’s no main story reading for this episode. However, towards the very end of the episode, Raisa reads a summary of Odysseus’s reunion with Penelope from ⁠Claudio Patrini’s, “Odyssey: Symbols and Meaning.”⁠ There are many versions of The Odyssey out there, but these are the ones that we have found most recommended: Stephen Mitchell translation. (Adina’s read this one) Robert Fagles translation. (Raisa listened to the audiobook version, read by Sir Ian McKellan) Emily Wilson translation. (First translation by a woman and entirely in iambic pentameter. Highly recommended by Raisa’s wife, brother, and many others. Unfortunately the audiobook is exclusively on Audible) Stephen Fry retelling. (A contemporary version that adds extra context and is easy to digest. Brilliantly narrated by Stephen Fry himself. Raisa listened to this one first before moving on to Fagles and McKellan) Our intro/outro music a sample of Seikilos Epitaph with the Lyre of Apollo, by Lina Palera, under an Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 International License.

In his new book, “Money To Burn,” author and Puck journalist William Cohan traces the rise and fall of one of Wall Street's most towering modern figures: billionaire Leon Black. His private equity and investment firm, Apollo, changed Wall Street, making Black enormously rich. He reached the highest rungs of New York society, but his ties to convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein ultimately took him down. Kara and Bill talk about how Black and Apollo ushered in a "new Wall Street" and the nature of Black's relationship with Epstein, which continued for almost a decade after Epstein's 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor. They also break down some of the latest headlines in business and finance, including Meta's $17 billion settlement and President Trump's escalating trade war with Canada. Questions? Comments?

An overflowing task manager and a crowded-out calendar are rarely ever caused by using the wrong tools. The problem happened well before you entered the task or added the appointment to your task manager or calendar.  And that's what we're looking at this week.  Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   Learn more about my Productivity Academy Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived    Apollo 13 Lunar Module Start-up Procedures   The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script |431 Hello, and welcome to episode 431 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  If you were to look at your appointments for tomorrow right now, how much time do you have that is not already committed? Two, three, four hours?  Now look at your task manager: how many tasks are overdue or scheduled for tomorrow?  In the uncommitted time you have tomorrow, are you confident you can complete all those tasks?  Most people who do this little exercise, if they are being honest with themselves, will answer “no chance”.  And this is the top reason why so many people are struggling with time management and productivity today. And there is a word for it: Overcommitted.  It's not the tools they use or any other complex reason. It's simply because they've allowed themselves to become overcommitted.  This week, I'm looking at how this happens and what you can do to unravel the problem so you are operating within your natural capacity, not overworked or under pressure, and not feeling like you are sinking under the weight of unrealistic deadlines and commitments.  So, to get us started, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Douglas. Douglas asks, “Hi, Carl, I know you tell people to keep their task manager clean and tight, but I find that impossible. I'm collecting 20 or more things into my inbox each day; I often have 4 or 5 hours of meetings, and I have to deal with at least 130 emails and messages each day. How would you get all that under control?” Hi Douglas, thank you for your question.  I did some quick maths on the numbers you provided and noticed that if you are collecting, on average, 25 new tasks a day, have 130 emails and messages to deal with and only have 3 ½ hours of non-meeting time each day, that would mean you would have only 1 minute and 13 seconds to spend on each item.  Yet those numbers assume you are not taking time for lunch or coffee or a glass of water. If you were to include a 30-minute lunch break and 15 minutes to get water and coffee each day, that would leave you with less than a minute available for each email, message, and task.  Is that realistic?  Based on that quick calculation, the issue here is one of capacity. You've no capacity left. All that's needed to completely destroy your day is an urgent, last-minute meeting request, an issue that prevents you from doing any of your planned work or simply an IT problem that doesn't allow you to do the work you planned.  I can assure you, Douglas, you are not alone here.  There are millions of people all around the world struggling with the same thing. They're overcommitted.  Which is why it's completely irrelevant what tools you're using.  The first thing I would advise someone in this situation is to do the maths I did above. Now, I know I do not have all the information. I don't know what work you do, your position in the company, or whether you lead a team.  But what I do know is you've gone beyond your natural capacity, and now you will be building up enormous backlogs. You will be struggling to meet your deadlines, and I bet when you get home you're exhausted.  This exercise will tell you how much capacity you have.  If the meetings you attend each day are non-negotiable, you will need to find a way to reduce the number of tasks you receive. Which means you will likely have to do something uncomfortable.  Reject requests.  Now I know this is very hard to do. Nobody likes disappointing someone. But the choice is: either you disappoint them when they ask, or you disappoint them when you cannot deliver what you promised on time. And I think failing to deliver on your commitments is the bigger disappointment. Think of it this way. If you say no and they ask someone else who can deliver, then you've actually helped them.  Sure, your pride may be slightly hurt, but this isn't about your pride. This is about setting yourself realistic expectations on what you can and cannot do.  However, there is another possible solution. Cap your daily meetings. If, when you do the little exercise on how much non-committed time you have, you realise that you will need four hours of meeting-free time each day, then you cap your meeting time at 3 hours per day.  This will then leave you with 4 or 5 hours for your tasks.  Now there are various ways to do this. You could use a calendar service such as Calendly or Acuity to open blocks of time for people to schedule meetings with you, or you could tell people that you've reached your meeting limit for the day and ask if you could meet on another day.  You will be surprised how accommodating people can be.  Another consideration is to reduce the meeting times to 30 minutes. This has the added advantage that people will get to the point much faster, and you'll find you still cover everything that needs to be covered.  I've learned many things over the years I've been coaching and helping people with their time management and productivity, but one of those lessons stands out: Every “yes” has an invisible “no”.  In other words, every time you accept another commitment, whether it is a meeting or a piece of work, you are saying no to something else you could have done with that time.  But it goes beyond that. Meetings have a nasty habit of generating more commitments. Another meeting, more emails and tasks, for example.  And pieces of work generate what Cal Newport calls “admin costs”; these are the little extra tasks, such as finding information, following up, and answering questions. They are the invisible “nos” rarely ever considered.  So in your situation, Douglas, there are a few questions to ask yourself: Do all your regular meetings require your presence? If not, perhaps you could drop one or two of them. If you can, don't allow the saved time to be replaced by other meetings. Protect that time. Save it for the things you have prioritised.  The goal here is to gradually withdraw from these meetings.  If you manage a team, perhaps you could delegate attendance at some of these meetings to one of your team members. They can then report back to you with a summary of what happened.  What are you collecting? You mentioned that you collect around 20 new items on average each day. That seems like a lot. What are you collecting?  There are some things that will need to be collected; you may need to contact someone for information or organise the purchase of new equipment.  But if you are collecting emails to respond to and articles to read, then your task manager is not the best place for them. Emails and messages have their own self-contained apps. Keep everything within these walls. For instance, if you have a Slack message to reply to but need to think about it first, flag the message. Or you can use Claude or ChatGPT to find all your unresponded messages for today. You could even set this up as an automation  With email, it's easier. You can create an Action folder for emails you need to respond to and drop them in there. Then give yourself some time later in the day to respond to them.  The goal here is to reduce the pressure on your capacity, and one of the fastest ways to do that is to reduce friction points.  For example, if you get an email you feel you should respond to and then move it to your task manager, that's a lot of additional time—remember “admin cost”? It's far faster to drag and drop it into an Action folder.  A great question to ask yourself is: What has to come out of my week to make it more realistic?  Juggling your current commitments around, fiddling with your task manager or trying new tools is not addressing the real issue.  The real issue is a capacity one. You're trying to do far more than you can do. You won't find the solution until you address that.  I would begin with: How much time do you need to stay on top of your work? That could be an extra five or six hours a week. Now you have something tangible to work with.  For those of you who have watched the film Apollo 13, there's a scene where the character Ken Mattingly is in the lunar module flight simulator, and they are trying to find a start-up procedure that would not draw more than 20 amps.  This meant they had to find out what they could turn on and what they could not.  After hours of testing, they finally had a start-up procedure that draws just under 20 amps.  I will put a link to the clip in the show notes, as it is a great illustration of what we sometimes have to do with the time we have. It's finite, and often the only things we can do are the essentials. There's no time for the “would like to do” or low-value tasks.  In many ways, an issue we all share is that we think time is infinite, when it's the opposite. It's finite, and how we allocate our time each day is largely our choice.  The key is understanding that there are always trade-offs and consequences when we allocate our time. If we say yes to one thing, we say no to another, whether we are consciously aware of it or not.  As I am writing this script, I am not responding to an urgent email or talking with my family. Equally, when I am chatting with my wife, I am not writing feedback for my coaching clients.  So, Douglas, look at your calendar. How are you allocating your time each week? What can you remove to free up time for the things you want to spend it on?  It won't be easy, and you will feel uncomfortable doing it. However, I can assure you that it is possible and when you have done it, you will feel lighter, more focused and appreciate your time in ways you've never considered. Plus, the bonus is that other people will begin respecting your time more than they do today.  Thank you for your question, and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.   

More than half a century after humans last walked on the Moon, the next era of space exploration is taking shape. Getting there is cheaper, private companies are playing a much bigger role, and discoveries like vast reserves of lunar water have made the prospect of establishing a permanent presence on the Moon far more realistic. Ian Bremmer sits down with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield to talk about what this new space age could look like. They discuss the growing competition between the US and China, whether rivals can cooperate on the lunar surface, and who gets to write the rules as governments and companies begin looking beyond simply planting a flag. Hadfield also breaks down the practical challenges of living on the Moon – from powering a settlement through long lunar nights to the unanswered question of whether humans can develop normally in low gravity. He explains how private companies are turning space into a commercial marketplace, why regulation will inevitably struggle to keep pace, and why robots alone can never satisfy humanity's drive to explore Mars. And drawing on nearly six months aboard the International Space Station, Hadfield reflects on the surprisingly wonderful experience of sleeping in zero gravity, circling Earth 2,600 times, and how seeing the planet from above fundamentally changed his perspective on humanity and our place in the universe.
