One of the challenges of human nature is that we become accustomed to the blessings that Hashem gives us. Things that once would have filled us with excitement eventually become part of everyday life, and we begin to expect them rather than appreciate them. Very often, we do not recognize the true value of something until it is no longer available. A person may take his health for granted until, lo alenu, he becomes ill. Suddenly, all the things he was once able to do effortlessly become precious. The same is true with all blessings and relationships. One of the purposes of thanking Hashem for our blessings is to train ourselves to appreciate them while we have them, so that we do not need to lose them in order to recognize their value. A man told me that he recently had to move to another city, and now it takes him over an hour to commute to work each day. He said he never appreciated living just five minutes from his office. Looking back, he wishes he had appreciated that convenience while he had it. Sometimes a person spends years praying for something. He dreams of getting married, finding a job, buying a home, or having a child. Then, when Hashem grants him that blessing, it gradually becomes part of his routine, and he no longer feels the same excitement he once did. He moves on to making new requests and may even feel as though Hashem never gives him what he asks for. If only he could remember how desperately he once wanted what he already has. Another benefit of thanking Hashem for our blessings becomes apparent from the following story. A woman related that after she gave birth, she was rushed to the ICU with severe complications. She lost a tremendous amount of blood and required more than ten blood transfusions. She was connected to machines, had a tube down her throat, and her hands and feet were extremely swollen. The doctors expected her to remain in the ICU for at least seven to ten days. At one point, they were not sure if she would survive. They told her husband that her life was hanging by a thread. When she finally became aware of where she was, what was happening, and how serious her condition was, she told her husband that they needed to thank Hashem for the healthy baby He had just given them. Even though she was weak, confused, and frightened, she felt that this was the moment to focus on gratitude. Together they began thanking Hashem for everything they could think of. They thanked Him for the doctors and nurses who were caring for her, for the people bringing them food, for her hands and feet that had not been swollen for all the years before, and for countless other blessings. Then they said Mizmor LeTodah together. At that time, her oxygen level was only 88. The doctors had told them that she would not be allowed to leave the ICU until it reached at least 96. Despite all the medical efforts, the number would not move. As they continued thanking Hashem and saying Mizmor LeTodah, they watched the monitor. Eighty-eight became eighty-nine. Eighty-nine became ninety. They could hardly believe it. They continued thanking Hashem for more and more blessings and recited Mizmor LeTodah again. The numbers kept climbing until, all of a sudden, the oxygen level reached 97 and remained there. After a little more than an hour of focusing on gratitude and thanking Hashem, her oxygen level had risen enough for her to leave the ICU. The doctors were stunned. The next day, while she was still in the hospital, the nurses noticed that her numbers were once again not looking good, and they were concerned that she might need to return to the ICU. She asked for a few minutes alone. Once again, she focused on gratitude to Hashem and recited Mizmor LeTodah. When the nurses returned, they saw that the numbers had gone back to normal. Baruch Hashem, she was eventually discharged fully healed. She said she learned one of the greatest lessons of her life. Gratitude does not change Hashem; it changes us. When we stop focusing on what we are missing and start noticing the blessings that Hashem has already given us, something changes inside. We begin to see His kindness everywhere, and that itself is a tremendous zechut. May we always merit to appreciate Hashem's blessings and thank Him for them constantly.
You've lost the weight. Maybe you're still losing it. But when you look in the mirror, you still feel like the same person.Many people call this body dysmorphia. While body dysmorphia is a real clinical condition, many people are actually experiencing something different. They're discovering the gap between changing their body and changing the relationship they have with themselves.In this episode of Body Image Shift, we explore why weight loss doesn't automatically create self-confidence, self-acceptance, or self-love. For years, many of us were taught that changing our appearance would finally make us happy, worthy, or good enough. But when the weight comes off and those feelings remain, we're forced to confront a deeper reality.We discuss why so many people spend years trying to run from previous versions of themselves, how weight loss solves a weight problem but not necessarily a body image problem, and why true healing often begins when we stop trying to escape our past and start appreciating every version of ourselves.You'll also learn a simple mirror exercise that can help you begin rebuilding how you see yourself and why patience, kindness, and self-appreciation are essential parts of changing your body image for the long term.Topics Covered:• Why weight loss doesn't automatically fix body image• The difference between changing your body and changing your self-perception• Why many people still feel the same after losing weight• The connection between body image and self-worth• Appreciating previous versions of yourself• Weight loss versus self-acceptance• The role of emotions in body image• Rebuilding your relationship with yourself• Using mirror work to improve self-perception• Creating a healthier internal dialogueContinue the Body Image Conversation:YLF Livestream:https://yourlevelfitness.com/streamThank you for listening to Body Image Shift.The goal isn't to love yourself once you reach a certain weight. The goal is to appreciate and love yourself at every stage of the journey. When you stop trying to run from previous versions of yourself and start appreciating the person who got you here, everything begins to change.

What do you want your new normal to be?If you're currently taking a GLP-1 medication, you've probably heard people talk about reduced appetite, fewer thoughts about food, lower energy levels, nausea, and significant weight loss. For many people who have struggled with weight management for years, those changes can feel like a welcome relief.In this episode of Life During and After GLP-1, I explore an important question that often gets overlooked: what do you ultimately want your day-to-day life to look like?We discuss the trade-offs that can come with GLP-1 medications, the importance of thinking beyond short-term weight loss, and why it's worth considering how your energy, strength, activity levels, and overall quality of life fit into the bigger picture.This isn't about telling you whether GLP-1 medications are right or wrong. Those conversations belong between you and your healthcare provider. Instead, this episode is about helping you think critically about the lifestyle you're building and whether it aligns with the life you want to live long-term.Topics Covered:• Defining your new normal• Life during and after GLP-1 medications• Appetite changes and food noise• Energy levels and daily activity• Strength, muscle mass, and performance• Long-term lifestyle considerations• Weight loss versus quality of life• Marketing messages around GLP-1 medications• Building a sustainable active lifestyle• Appreciating yourself at every stage of the journeyLinks Mentioned:Your Level Fitness:https://yourlevelfitness.comJournal Prompts:https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailEmail Daryl:daryl@yourlevelfitness.comThank you for listening to Life During and After GLP-1.My goal isn't to tell you what your journey should look like. My goal is to encourage you to think about the lifestyle you're building, the trade-offs you're making, and the version of normal you ultimately want for yourself. The more intentional you are about those decisions, the more likely you are to create a lifestyle you'll actually want to maintain for the long term.
Chiara Benedetto came to live in Paris with an internship in a science field and has now built a life there. Growing up in a simple Italian town, Chiara always felt connected to French culture and language, so it felt a natural progression to head to a Francophone country like Canada, Belgium or France for her work. In this Loulabelle's chat, I was fascinated to hear about Chiara's work, as well as her Parisian life - from the practicalities of sharing in university accommodation, to her own apartment, to having a "melting-pot" group of friends coming to live in Paris from all around the globe.Chiara helps others now with the paperwork required when migrating to France. Her assistance is not based just on her own experience, but on the needs of each individual, as everyone's situation can be different. Chiara doesn't sugar coat the immigrant experience in Paris, but she describes how those who move and stay in France develop a "grit that no filter can capture".Tune into this chat and escape to France with us xx**Louise Prichard is the host of the Loulabelle's FrancoFiles podcast.**Other Loulabelle's links:FrancoFile Fix on YouTubeLoulabelle's FrancoFiles Spotify Playlist Loulabelle's FrancoFiles InstagramLoulabelle's FrancoFiles website

In this episode, I talk about parenting, exhaustion, frustration, and the very real challenge of remaining Stoic when your emotional battery is running on empty.Stoic Mentoring: https://tannerocampbell.com/mentoringSunday 7th Webinar: https://stoictalks.uk/june-cosmologyUsing a story from my own 43rd birthday, I walk through a morning that did not go according to plan. What I wanted was a peaceful day. What I got was a very normal morning with a two-year-old child who wanted things his way, struggled to communicate those wants clearly, and repeatedly tested my patience.The story revolves around a simple trip to a café that gradually became a lesson in expectations, frustration, entitlement, and emotional regulation.The deeper lesson is not really about toddlers. It's about the stories we tell ourselves.I had convinced myself that my birthday entitled me to a peaceful day. Rationally, I knew that wasn't true. But emotionally, I had quietly bought into the idea anyway. That expectation became the source of much of my frustration.From there, I explore several Stoic lessons:Managing expectations before frustration takes hold.Recognizing when we're running our emotional batteries too low.Understanding that self-care is not selfishness.Appreciating how much children learn from our behavior, especially when we're angry.Recognizing the difference between discipline and rage.I spend particular time discussing the impression we leave on our children. Children are constantly watching us. Every outburst, every moment of patience, every act of self-control becomes part of the example we set for them.A parent losing their temper doesn't just solve a problem poorly in the moment—it can shape how a child understands relationships, authority, safety, and emotional expression for years to come.I also argue that many parents wait far too long to recharge. We run ourselves into the ground, then expect one special day, one holiday, or one break to somehow restore everything. That's not sustainable.The Stoic approach is much simpler: maintain the battery before it reaches zero.Even a single hour each week dedicated to rest, reflection, reading, walking, or simply being alone can dramatically improve our ability to show up well for the people who depend on us.The central message of the episode is this: parenting is hard, and perfection is impossible. But we can dramatically reduce the likelihood of losing our tempers by managing our expectations, protecting our own wellbeing, and remembering that our children are always learning from how we choose to respond.Listening on Spotify?

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about the concept that attaining success is not about working harder. Without sounding cliché, it's about working smarter. Both John and Kelly were blessed to take their own personal annual income to over $1 million a year by working smarter. More specifically, understanding how the human mind works. Appreciating that one's daily actions determine their success in each area of their lives. But the majority of their daily actions, up to 95%, are unconscious. Therefore they had to gain control over their unconscious daily actions. That in a nutshell is what working smarter is all about.And here's a great saying to appreciate. Working harder is like stepping on the accelerator when the parking brake is on if you're not leading yourself deliberately and intelligently with a system. John also mentions another powerful saying. That you don't rise to the level of your goals, you sink to the level of your systems. During this podcast John and Kelly also talk about the nuances of using AI. And how transformative it is. And as we said last time, the gap between the 2% in the 98% is widening. Because at two factors. The 2% have a system for intentionally leading themselves and the 98% don't. Also the 2% is embracing AI thoroughly and completely, whereas the 98% is just dabbling with it.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Appreciating What Hashem Gives You (Behaaloscha 5786)
Eric Ries: Incorruptible Eric Ries is the creator of the Lean Startup method, and the author of the New York Times bestseller The Lean Startup, The Leader's Guide, and The Startup Way. Over the last two decades, his ideas about continuous innovation, long-term thinking, governance, and market reform have reshaped company building and management practices. He is the author of Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad…and How Great Companies Stay Great (Amazon, Bookshop)*. If you build a great organization, the predators will come. With the right principles in place, not only can you protect what you love, but help many people flourish because of it. In this conversation, Eric and I show you exactly where to start. Key Points Most leaders are one acquisition, one IPO, one board meeting away from seeing something they love turn into something they hate. If you build something great, they will come. The “they” are the predators who are willing to kill the golden goose. Financial gravity is the force no one controls but everyone obeys. Appreciating its realities and laws will help you build stronger. Rather than framing profit as good or bad, define profit as how you contribute to human flourishing. Harder is easier. Rather than viewing principles as a burden, the best leaders see principles as opportunities. Design the business model so the organization prospers only via mission attainment.

Anxiety Relief - Guided Meditation for Gratitude, Calm & Appreciating the Small Miracles in Life Somewhere between the noise and the rushing, life is still leaving small miracles in your path. A shaft of morning light. The warmth of a cup in your hands. The simple fact that you are breathing right now. In today's 10-minute guided meditation and clinical hypnotherapy session, we slow down long enough to notice them — and in doing so, we gently loosen anxiety's grip and return to the quiet wonder that was always here. This session uses vagus nerve breathwork, deep guided visualisation and clinical hypnotherapy affirmations to shift your nervous system from anxious striving to open, grateful calm. Because gratitude isn't about pretending everything is fine. It's about finding the one small thing that still is. Hosted by Martin Hewlett — clinical hypnotherapist and former frontline paramedic. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
In today's conversation we're joined by Patrick Johnson of Australia. Patrick is currently the Australian 100m record holder, and the first person from Oceania to break the 10 second barrier, having run 9.93 seconds back in 2003.His record still stands to this day over 20 years later, but has reentered the conversation as Australia enters a new golden age of sprinting with young athletes like Gout Gout, Lachlan Kennedy, Eddie Nketia and others all running fast times and coming close to finally taking it down.In our conversation, we do a full breakdown of Patrick's 9.93 100m record race, including his mindset entering the year and exactly how he approached the race. We also discuss the current landscape of sprinting in Australia including the likes of Gout Gout, Lachlan Kennedy and Torrie Lewis, as well his thoughts around why Australia has seen such a rise in talent in recent years.

Appreciating Your Unique Tachlis & Accepting Torah Anew Every Year (Bamidbar 5786)
Though our lives are filled with uncertainty, we're less tolerant of it than ever, says journalist Simone Stolzoff, author of the new book “How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers.” Surrounded by prediction markets, statistics and the world's knowledge on our phones, we think we should always be certain – in who we are, what we believe and what the “right” choice is. But Stolzoff says that accepting and even appreciating uncertainty can help us be more tolerant, humble and ready to take on life's curveballs.

Beginning with breath awareness and meeting yourself exactly where you are, the practice invites you to embody appreciation — first for the breath itself, then for someone you deeply love, and finally for aspects of your own life and who you are. The session closes with a reflection on how to carry appreciation into your day and express it to those around you.Resources MentionedFree Envisioning Guide: mindfulfire.org/startJoin Mindful Fire Legends to practice live: mindfulfire.org/joinKey TakeawaysAppreciation begins with the breath — each inhale and exhale sustains your life, and tuning into that simple fact is the foundation of the practice.Bringing a specific person to mind and letting feelings of appreciation "bubble up like bubbles off the bottom of a boiling pot" deepens the emotional resonance of gratitude.Appreciating traits about yourself and the opportunities in your own life shifts the inner lens from self-judgment to self-compassion.The practice doesn't end on the cushion — the session closes by inviting listeners to express appreciation to those around them in small, concrete ways throughout the rest of their day.PS: Introducing the…
In this message, Pastor Olubi Johnson explores the profound promise of Revelation 2:17 — “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna.” Hidden manna represents the deeper nourishment God reserves for believers who press beyond the ordinary into deeper fellowship with Him. The teaching reveals that throughout Scripture there were two kinds of manna: the daily manna given openly in the wilderness, and the manna preserved in a golden pot inside the Ark of the Covenant in the Most Holy Place. This hidden manna symbolizes deeper revelation of Christ, spiritual strength for overcomers, and intimate communion with God. Pastor Olubi explains how the Tabernacle of Moses provides a prophetic map of spiritual growth — from the Outer Court to the Holy Place and finally into the Most Holy Place where hidden manna is found. The invitation is not for a spiritual elite, but for believers willing to overcome, pursue God diligently, and walk the Path of Life into deeper intimacy with Him.
Send us a message!We read Luke 7 and watch Jesus meet outsiders, mourners, doubters, and critics with authority and compassion. We end by wrestling with how repentance and gratitude shape love, and why awareness of sin can lead to deeper joy in forgiveness. • Luke's detailed storytelling and why it helps us relate to Jesus • The centurion's humility and trust in Jesus' authority • Jesus' compassion for the widow of Nain and the raising of her son • John the Baptist's question and Jesus' evidence-based answer • Jesus' view of John and the danger of cynical spiritual criticism • A Pharisee's dinner and a “sinful” woman's costly love • The two debtors parable and what it reveals about forgiveness • Repenting little as a sign of noticing little Take some time today. Take a couple minutes and pray, God, what do you see in my life that does not please you, that does not line up with the way you would have me live?

What does it mean for a place to be truly quiet? It's a question I've been pondering over the last several months following a webinar from the Keystone Trails Association and Pennsylvania Parks and Forests Foundation. They had a discussion with Quiet Parks International – a nonprofit committed to saving quiet for the benefit of all life. Saving the quiet. What does that mean? Quiet's not something I've ever thought much about. Growing up with my loud family, noisy traffic, ringing cell phones and roaring air conditioning, quiet was never an option. But, I've certainly experienced quiet on hiking trails. Right? Wrong. There's always some sort of noise. If it's not airplanes above or nearby cars and trucks, it's a speaker from a selfish hiker or the hum of a factory or data center. Man, I don't think I've ever experienced real quiet. But what does it matter? How bad can a little noise be. Actually, it can be really bad. It can lead to hearing loss, stress, anxiety, sleep disturbance, cardiovascular damage and more. But not only does noise affect us, it can affect the wildlife around us. Noise can disrupt wildlife behavior, migration patterns and communication. So what can we do and where can we go to experience quiet? Is it even possible? That's what this episode's guest is trying to find out. On this episode, I speak with Matthew Mikkelsen. Matt is an award-winning sound designer, field recordist, filmmaker, conservationist and chairperson for Quiet Parks International's Board of Directors.

The element of luck in #poker means that weak players can having winning sessions and strong ones can go on extended downswings. One can argue that this variance is necessary for the game to survive at all, since without it donators would quickly drop the game. Appreciating how extreme poker variance can be is important for two reasons. First, understanding that downswings are a feature of the game helps us survive psychologically. Second, quantifying how big downswings can be is essential for exercising proper bankroll management.

Service Business Mastery - Business Tips and Strategies for the Service Industry
Most business owners think they only have two options when they want to scale: Pay expensive consultants… or give up equity to investors. But what if there was a third option?
