Amy Edmondson is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, which is a Chair established to support the study of human interactions that lead to the creation of successful enterprises that contribute to the betterment of society. And in today's conversation we certainly talk about Harvard, what it's like to work on a college campus, and what it's like to be specifically at that college campus during this time in 2023 as we record today's conversation. Amy has been recognized by the Biannual Thinkers50 Global Ranking of Management Thinkers since 2011, and recently was ranked #1 in 2021. She's received that organization's Breakthrough Idea Award in 2019 and Talent Award in 2017. She studies teaming, psychological safety (which is going to be a core concept and competency that you've probably heard about at some point if you study environments and teams and groups), and we're going to talk about the famous Aristotle study that Google did that found that psychological safety was the #1 factor in determining team success, so this is definitely a deep dive into that concept and something that hopefully you can take with your teams and organizations. She also studies organizational learning and her articles have been published in numerous academic and management outlets, including Administrative Science Quarterly, Academy of Management Journal, Harvard Business Review, and California Management Review. She's written many books, so we're going to talk about The Fearless Organization, which she wrote in 2019, we're going to talk about her latest book, The Right Kind of Wrong, so a lot of this conversation is about mistakes and failures, and I highly recommend you check out that book. She's also written books around this concept of teaming, including Teaming to Innovate and Extreme Teaming. At her core, you're going to find Amy to be humble but brilliant, you're going to find her to be nuanced and thoughtful when it comes to psychology and the science of humans, and she is someone that I feel as though, even though she's got all these accolades, I feel like I could've talked to forever.  Amy had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “A mindset is something that happens inside your head. It's an approach. It's an orientation” (6:35). “A psychologically safe environment in the classroom is mission-critical for learning and learners” (9:30). “Safe spaces and psychological safety are almost at odds, almost two opposing ideas rather than compatible ideas [in an educational space]” (12:20). “Classrooms can be environments where people can take risks and occasionally failures will happen… and through those we will learn and grow and get to be better versions of ourselves” (14:40). “Psychological safety for me has always been about helping people take their foot off the brakes” (15:05). “The day you decide you don't need to learn anymore, and your mind is made up and your opinions about various people and groups is made up, is the day you cease to grow (16:35). “It starts with a recognition that other human beings are just as important as you are” (21:10). “We all want to feel that we matter” (23:15). “The meaningful memories [on our death beds] have to do with other humans” (29:10). “There's an asymmetry [to psychological safety]” (30:35). “Vulnerability is a fact” (33:00). “If I'm unwilling to confront my vulnerability, then I'm at risk for unhappy surprises” (33:30). “Neuroscience research suggests that some of the same neurons are firing when we get a psychological assault or harm, like being rejected by a group of friends…, as for a physical harm” (36:20). “Emotions are incredibly important, incredibly powerful in shaping our human experiences (45:20). “Probably the most important capacity people can learn, in sports and in life, is how to tame their emotions” (45:55). “Your emotions can simply be data” (46:40). “The more expert we get in any given field or domain, the more we can effortlessly process context and take it into consideration” (56:25). “The best students, the unusually good students, are curious” (59:40). “To cultivate curiosity and collaboration, you have to truly believe that it's in your interest to do so” (1:00:35). “A mistake is an unintended deviation from a known process… A failure is an undesired outcome” (1:03:15). “There's no such thing as a mistake in new territory” (1:03:55). “It's about creating the safe conditions in which [your kids] can fail” (1:14:30). Additionally, you can find all of Amy's information on her website, and also follow her on Twitter and LinkedIn.  Thank you so much to Amy for coming on the podcast! I wrote a book called “Shift Your Mind” that was released in October of 2020, and you can order it on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

In this insightful episode, Dr. John Patrick delves into the concepts of purpose and meaning, examining their profound implications in our lives and society. Reflecting on his recent participation in a Catholic event, he explores the historical perspectives on purpose, drawing from the works of Aristotle and the impact of the Judeo-Christian tradition on the development of Western science. Dr. Patrick provides a nuanced analysis of how the loss of moral consensus and the elevation of science over spirituality have influenced modern society, particularly among the youth. He discusses the importance of a moral structure in sustaining societies and the consequences of its erosion, touching upon topics such as the Industrial Revolution, the role of Christianity in shaping Western thought, and contemporary challenges like promiscuity, anxiety, and the loss of purpose among the younger generation. This episode offers a deep, historical, and philosophical perspective on purpose and its relevance in today's world.

Aristotle, immersed in the pantheon of Greek gods, thought it was totally absurd to think that a human being could be a friend of the gods. Aristotle said friendship was an impossibility because humans and the divine share absolutely nothing in common.Is it absurd to think that man could be a friend of God? Yes. But is it possible? According to scripture...Yes. It's a beautiful absurdity...but a stunning possibility.And it's only possible because the God of Christianity is very different from any other deity throughout all of history.

This week on the show, my good friend, colleague, and fellow alchemist Martin Ferretti comes back on to get real deep into the stages of alchemy throughout all processes of life. Despite his show The Alchemical Mind being on hiatus for some time, Martin has been a diligent alchemist in many capacities for years now, and he's one of my favorite people to talk to when it comes to this subject. Calcination, Dissolution, Separation, Conjunction, Fermentation, Distillation, and Coagulation -- these are the seven stages of alchemy, whether it be mental, physical, or spiritual. In seven stages we even find the levels of heaven and hell, the seven chakras, concepts like the seven stages of grief, and so much more. What does it mean to go through these processes on a psychological, existential level? To further elaborate this food for thought we bring up topics like Carl Jung, shadow work, the Kabbalah, Aristotle's distaste for the written word, Philip K Dick, Liu Cixin's The Three Body Problem, dark timelines and my recent conversation with Eric Millar, deciphering psychedelic revelations, and so much more.

How to Persuade Others You've Made the Right Decisions - Kim Scott Your team has managed to come to a decision, but there are still people who don't agree with it — the same people who will be responsible for helping to implement it. If you're working efficiently, not everybody on your team is involved in every step of the listen-clarify-debate-decide process for everything — just the relevant people. Now that a decision has been reached, it's time to get more people on board. This isn't easy, and it's vital to get it right. Persuasion at this stage can feel unnecessary and make the decider resentful of people on the team who aren't fully in agreement. The decider has painstakingly gone through the listen, clarify, and debate steps and made a decision. Why doesn't everyone else get why it's obvious we should do this — or at least be willing to fall in line? But expecting others to implement a decision without being persuaded that it's the right thing to do is a recipe for terrible results. And don't imagine that you can step in and simply tell everyone to get in line behind a decision, whether you have made it or somebody else has. To help you be more persuasive, and to teach the “deciders” on your team to be more persuasive, the rest of this section will cover, briefly, Aristotle's elements of rhetoric — pathos, logos, and ethos, which I'll translate loosely as emotion, logic, and credibility. Emotion: The listener's emotions, not the speaker's when trying to persuade Credibility: Demonstrate expertise and humility when persuading Logic: Show your work when persuading your team https://kimmalonescott.medium.com/how-to-persuade-others-youve-made-the-right-decisions-a7a38a4555db 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/

None Wiser than the Law is a miniseries of in-depth conversations with Justice MN Venkatachaliah, providing an intimate exploration of the legal realm, his life journey, political insights, and the Indian constitution. The title of this podcast draws inspiration from Aristotle, who said to seek to be wiser than the law is the very thing which is by good laws forbidden. Justice Venkatachaliah, a distinguished figure in the realm of jurisprudence, acknowledges this aphorism in one of his landmark judgments, setting the tone for this series of conversations. The host, Alok Prasanna Kumar, a co-founder of the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, spoke to former Chief Justice of India MN Venkatachaliah in August 2023. Their discussion spans an array of topics, encapsulating the Justice's journey from a young lawyer to a Supreme Court judge, his landmark judgments, and his insights on the ever-evolving legal landscape and society.

He wrote in a much-read article: “We can learn surprisingly little about philosophical problems by studying the works of the ‘great' historical philosophers such as Aristotle, Hegel or Wittgenstein'.

Thoroughly appreciated this "Best of" conversation with Dr. Yuval Levin which we originally had right after the terrible attacks of October 7th in Israel. It was especially timely to have Dr. Yuval Levin on the program as he's not only one of this country's foremost scholars and policy experts, he's originally from Haifa, Israel. So we, of course, discussed what's happening there; however, our recording was only a couple days after the terrorist attacks that sparked the war. We did get to discuss a number of other pressing issues such as Dr. Levin's advocacy for ranked choice voting in primary elections; how to structure institutions to create the right kind of culture; whether our political positions come first or our philosophical and ethical moorings are primary; how Yuval is really just reiterating Aristotle for contemporary society - i.e. "What kind of person do I want to be? And what would that kind of person do in this situation?" With that in mind, a central theme of this program came up: How do we engage with friends, family and neighbors when so many are expressing extremist views? Dr. Levin's recommendation is that sometimes, at Thanksgiving, we just have to say, "I really think you're wrong. Now, pass the gravy..." and leave it at that. And I bet you never knew Alexis de Tocqueville could have been a Borscht Belt comedian!   Yuval Levin is the director of Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies at the American Enterprise Institute. The founder and editor of National Affairs, he is also a senior editor at The New Atlantis, a contributing editor at National Review, and a contributing opinion writer at The New York Times. Dr. Levin served as a member of the White House domestic policy staff under President George W. Bush. And he has published essays and articles in numerous publications, including The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and Commentary. He is the author of several books on political theory and public policy, most recently A Time to Build: From Family and Community to Congress and the Campus, How Recommitting to Our Institutions Can Revive the American Dream.   Talkin' Politics & Religion Without Killin' Each Other is part of The Democracy Group, a network of podcasts that examines what's broken in our democracy and how we can work together to fix it.   Please support our wonderful sponsor Meza Wealth Management: https://www.mezawealth.com/   And you can find Corey on all the socials @coreysnathan such as www.threads.net/@coreysnathan.

In this thought-provoking episode, our guest Seth delves into the primary sources of inspiration for his latest book, The House We Live In: Virtue, Wisdom, and Pluralism. In the wake of the 2016 elections, he felt compelled to discuss the competencies, understandings, habits, and skills vital for the survival of democracy, as he perceived it to be under threat. Seth also draws from his previous work comparing Buddhist and Aristotelian views of the good life, extending this comparison to Confucianism. He examines these three ancient approaches to understanding flourishing, virtue, and wisdom, and seeks to derive commonalities applicable in a modern ethical context. Our conversation takes a turn as Seth and Margaret discuss the continuing threat to democracy in 2023. Seth emphasizes the need for constant vigilance and renewal of our commitment to democracy, as it is always at risk. The conversation evolves into an exploration of pluralism, the conflict of differing visions of a good life, and the challenges of cohabitation amidst diversity. Seth provides a detailed explanation of flourishing-based ethics, stating that virtues like honesty, courage, fairness, and the ability to control emotions are crucial to leading a better life. He also highlights the importance of being emotionally satisfied, having meaningful relationships, appreciating aesthetics, and being fully present in life to achieve a state of flourishing. Seth believes that classical virtues and wisdom, as emphasized by Aristotle, Buddha, and Confucius, are crucial to leading such a life.   Seth calls for an ethical reset, asserting that engaging in virtues not only helps us live better lives but also contributes to a better society. This episode makes for a thought-provoking listen on the intertwining of ethics, democracy, and human flourishing.

This week on the @Versus History Podcast, we welcome back historian Charles Freeman to discuss his new book 'Children of Athena'. Charles Freeman presents a compelling and fascinating portrait of the continuing intellectual tradition of Greek writers and thinkers in the Age of Rome. In 146 BC, Greece yielded to the military might of the Roman Republic; sixty years later, when Athens and other Greek city-states rebelled against Rome, the general Lucius Cornelius Sulla destroyed the city of Socrates and Plato, laying waste to the famous Academy where Aristotle had studied. However, the traditions of Greek cultural life would continue to flourish during the centuries of Roman rule that followed, in the lives and work of a distinguished array of philosophers, doctors, scientists, geographers, travellers and theologians. Charles Freeman's accounts of such luminaries as the physician Galen, the geographer Ptolemy and the philosopher Plotinus are interwoven with contextual 'interludes' that showcase a sequence of unjustly neglected and richly influential lives. Like the author's The Awakening, The Children of Athena is a cultural history on an epic scale: the story of a rich and vibrant tradition of Greek intellectual inquiry across a period of more than five hundred years, from the second century BC to the start of the fifth century AD.“Charles Freeman has done it again – amassed a vast body of knowledge on a major subject and infused it with historical understanding and humane wit” Paul Cartledge, University of Cambridge “The Awakening is a remarkable work of scholarship by esteemed historian Charles Freeman... The book is a fine production, adorned with coloured images of frescos and ancient manuscripts.” Irish Times “Freeman is a good host, a superb narrator and tells his story with aplomb... His elegant prose is a treat for the mind and the accompanying illuminations a treat for the eye.” International Times “A work of serious scholarship by an author who has clearly been everywhere, seen everything and read voraciously. But it is also a work written with great elan and, given its scope, undertaken with considerable courage.” Christopher Lloyd, Surveyor of the Queen's Pictures, 1988–2005For terms of use, please visit www.versushistory.com

In today's (as always ad-free) podcast episode, your host Colleen Patrick-Goudreau explores the profound concept of magnanimity and its application to everyday living, drawing inspiration from the teachings of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas.  Delving into the philosophical roots of magnanimity, we unravel its significance in fostering personal growth, resilience, and compassion in our daily lives.

This podcast episode goes into the impact of anger and offers tips on managing it effectively. It highlights how uncontrolled anger can bring about significant costs.

Remember what Aristotle said, 'Anyone can get mad, but handling anger the right way and at the right time, that's the real challenge.'

Let's learn together! - “ANYBODY can become angry, that is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way, that is not within everybody's power, that is not easy.” -Aristotle --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/a-fulfilled-life/message

What was the role of computation? - So graph theory evolved as a theory after practice, like thermodynamics and the steam engine? - Graphs as knowledge representation were popular in AI the late 60s, and more formally in theoretical CS a decade later. - ​Was it a big effort to integrate graphs in Wolfram Language? Is it missing some part of the recent developments? - Has anyone formulated Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory in terms of graph theory? - At what point in history did mathematics reach a level where a single individual could no longer learn all "known knowledge" at that time within their lifetime? - It seems too often amazing discoveries go years without being picked up by a particular community. - If Aristotle were alive today, how might he describe modern technology? How would one explain modern technology to someone from Aristotle's time? - Would you say the words "soul" or "spirit" were used in the past in much the same way we use the term "software" today? - Why would cellphones be inconceivable? They work the same way speech does. The only difference is that the ancients didn't know about the electromagnetic field. - In your own experience, have there been any major changes to a field of study that changed the way one would view a certain topic?

None Wiser than the Law is a miniseries of in-depth conversations with Justice MN Venkatachaliah, providing an intimate exploration of the legal realm, his life journey, political insights, and the Indian constitution. The title of this podcast draws inspiration from Aristotle, who said to seek to be wiser than the law is the very thing which is by good laws forbidden. Justice Venkatachaliah, a distinguished figure in the realm of jurisprudence, acknowledges this aphorism in one of his landmark judgments, setting the tone for this series of conversations. The host, Alok Prasanna Kumar, a co-founder of the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, spoke to former Chief Justice of India MN Venkatachaliah in August 2023. Their discussion spans an array of topics, encapsulating the Justice's journey from a young lawyer to a Supreme Court judge, his landmark judgments, and his insights on the ever-evolving legal landscape and society. With over seventy years of experience as a lawyer, judge and public figure, Justice Venkatachaliah has seen it all - the birth of indepedendent India, the tenures of multiple Prime Ministers, the rise of social movements, secession, deep social conflicts and their resolutions.  What does he make of India and the journey it has taken over the last 75 odd years?  In this episode, we will be hearing from Justice Venkatachaliah on his perspectives on the state of the Indian judiciary, what the legal profession ought to be like and where legal education should go.  Subscribe to the BIC Talks Podcast on your favourite podcast app!

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Thirty-second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 493The Saint of the day is Saint Albert the GreatSaint Albert the Great's Story Albert the Great was a 13th-century German Dominican who decisively influenced the Church's stance toward Aristotelian philosophy brought to Europe by the spread of Islam. Students of philosophy know him as the master of Thomas Aquinas. Albert's attempt to understand Aristotle's writings established the climate in which Thomas Aquinas developed his synthesis of Greek wisdom and Christian theology. But Albert deserves recognition on his own merits as a curious, honest, and diligent scholar. He was the eldest son of a powerful and wealthy German lord of military rank. He was educated in the liberal arts. Despite fierce family opposition, he entered the Dominican novitiate. His boundless interests prompted him to write a compendium of all knowledge: natural science, logic, rhetoric, mathematics, astronomy, ethics, economics, politics, and metaphysics. His explanation of learning took 20 years to complete. “Our intention,” he said, “is to make all the aforesaid parts of knowledge intelligible to the Latins.” He achieved his goal while serving as an educator at Paris and Cologne, as Dominican provincial, and even as bishop of Regensburg for a short time. He defended the mendicant orders and preached the Crusade in Germany and Bohemia. Albert, a Doctor of the Church, is the patron of scientists and philosophers. Reflection An information glut faces us Christians today in all branches of learning. One needs only to read current Catholic periodicals to experience the varied reactions to the findings of the social sciences, for example, in regard to Christian institutions, Christian life-styles, and Christian theology. Ultimately, in canonizing Albert, the Church seems to point to his openness to truth, wherever it may be found, as his claim to holiness. His characteristic curiosity prompted Albert to mine deeply for wisdom within a philosophy his Church warmed to with great difficulty.

How To Be The One with Justin Prince

Our guest today is Justin Prince, and our focus is on "Being The One." Our aim is for you to reflect on who you are in this moment and how you can elevate yourself to a higher level. This conversation provides practical models and strategies for making transformative changes in your life, propelling you towards an exciting future. Justin shares compelling stories, valuable insights, and powerful lessons. Without further ado, let's dive into the discussion. [2:30] Why should I listen to you?  To answer your question, I believe you would find me willing to listen, and the reason for that is my genuine care for people. I possess a deep curiosity about others, a love for understanding their complex stories, and a keen interest in learning. I'd ask numerous questions and lend a listening ear, truly attempting to comprehend who you are, what motivates you, and what sparks your passions.  [3:40] When you look at collecting stories, what does that mean to you? I'm a person who tends to speak quite a bit, much like you do. For me, every communication should have a story, and every story should convey a meaningful point. I firmly believe that by making points within your communication and weaving them into a compelling story, you can connect with people on a much deeper level. Stories inherently carry a point, and points become more vivid and engaging when they're intertwined with a story. I'm constantly on the lookout for new stories and unique angles. I'm particularly inspired by individuals who provide me with stories that I can use as illustrations to inspire others. I consider myself a story collector' and am always in search of various tales—be it in the realm of business, human experiences, or stories of resilience. I believe that the true drama lies in the intricate details of these stories. Thus, I'm consistently focused on finding and collecting stories to serve as vehicles for moving people forward. [5:28] Can you tell us a bit about yourself—the human side of you? In life, we often encounter a universal pattern: the dream, struggle, and victory. Each phase is essential, but stories typically focus on the triumph, leaving the struggle hidden. My journey began with divorce, followed by 13 relocations, limited education, and various odd jobs. I harbored big dreams. At 25, I launched my first business, which eventually failed, forcing us into financial turmoil. My wife and kids shared a small loft while I juggled part-time jobs. I questioned if success was possible for me. Perseverance paid off as I rebuilt my business, eventually selling it. I ventured into private equity consulting for two years and spent over a decade transforming a struggling company, achieving two and a half billion in revenue. This path led to speaking worldwide and writing books, allowing me to inspire others. The essence of my story is simple: dreams are attainable, and extraordinary lives are within reach. [8:43] What do you notice stops people from moving toward that thing that, for you, seems so obvious? Firstly, many people lack clarity. They're often confused and uncertain. I advocate for having 3D vision. When you lack vision, you limit your potential to influence and inspire others. Your vision should be crystal clear and always at the forefront of your mind. High performers can articulate their latest goals almost instantaneously, a key sign of clarity. Secondly, fear can be a major obstacle. It can be fear of what others will say, fear of failure, or even fear of success. I've developed a '3 C Success Loop' to address this. It begins with 'confidence,' believing in yourself, which leads to 'commitment.' With confidence, you commit to your goals. Commitment, in turn, leads to 'competence,' improving your skills and abilities. As your competence grows, it boosts your confidence. But to break the cycle of fear and doubt, you need 'courage' to take the first step, even when you can't see the entire path. Courage is what sets you apart, as it's a rare quality. Anything rare holds greater value. Be the one who runs toward the roar, not away from it.  [16:04] What do you find to be some of the common fears that keep people from chasing a lion right now? I understand the fear of being crushed when pursuing something big, whether it's in sports or any other life endeavor. That fear often stems from the worry of being embarrassed in front of others, especially when you're aiming high. I can relate to a personal experience that occurred when I was just starting my entrepreneurial journey. I was at church one Sunday, feeling inspired and enthusiastic about my new venture, and I shared my aspirations with some acquaintances, what I'd call "church friends." Their response was far from supportive. They ridiculed my ambitions, and it left me feeling small and uncertain. I had three initial emotions: a strong urge to fight back, a desire to take back my words, and a need to defend myself. However, I ended up just sitting there, feeling diminished. The lesson from these situations is that when you pursue your dreams, you might encounter naysayers who hammer you down or pull you back. It's crucial to empower the words of those who believe in you, those who say, "You got this." The negative voices will always be there, but it's your choice to listen to the empowering words and let them carry more weight. Like the story of President Reagan, who overcame skepticism at each stage of his life, from playing football to becoming the President of the United States, it's essential to listen to the believers and keep moving forward. [24:20] What is your book about, and who is it for?  I wrote the book "Be the One" for two important reasons. Firstly, I firmly believe that success is rooted in one's identity. How you perceive yourself significantly influences how you perform and engage with the world. If you see yourself as a loser, you'll struggle to perform like a winner, and vice versa. I wanted to emphasize that success is an identity process, and I want people to recognize that they are the one. They are the culmination of generations of people who came together, bled, cried, and sacrificed for their existence. Understanding your value and purpose is vital, particularly in a world facing high rates of suicide, anxiety, and depression. Realizing that your life has meaning can be a transformative realization. The second reason for writing the book is to provide practical and tactical strategies, habits, and routines to help readers become the people they were born to be. While I hope the book motivates and inspires, it's primarily designed to teach and equip readers with the tools they need to be the best version of themselves. My journey from a broken home with no formal education to achieving billions in sales and traveling the world was a result of applying practical strategies and habits, which I share in the book. Ultimately, I want to help readers recognize their identity and provide them with actionable steps to fulfill their potential. [27:38] How does someone elevate beyond their current level when who they are determines the actions and habits that shape their life? The first step in personal transformation is recognizing the need to update your identity. How you perceive yourself significantly impacts your performance. In the book, a story is shared about Jaime Molina, an exemplary individual who transitioned from a troubled past. His story demonstrates that we're not defined by our past but by who we're meant to be. We can create visions for our future, but it's essential to translate these visions into daily habits. Aristotle's wisdom emphasizes that excellence is a result of consistent habits. Your success isn't accidental; it's a product of daily, intentional decisions. Break the cycle, empower your family, and create an unforgettable life by updating your identity, cultivating new habits, and making conscious decisions. [33:06] How can you approach individuals who struggle to envision a future beyond what they currently know or dislike, especially when they doubt their ability to achieve it? How do you help them plant the seed of a vision that extends beyond their current limitations? In a recent event, a woman approached me and said she couldn't cast a vision for her future; her mind felt stuck. I shared the power of words, emphasizing that our words significantly influence our beliefs and actions. When I started lifting weights with a tough trainer, he instilled three rules. The most crucial one was to never say, "I can't do something." He explained how the conscious mind believes what you tell it. So, I adopted a habit of speaking positively and confidently, even when I doubted myself. This practice boosted my strength and self-belief. Research shows that our spoken words are 10 times more impactful than our thoughts. So, by changing your word patterns, you can enhance your future outlook and capabilities. Stop dwelling on past failures and focus on your potential strength and capacity.  [40:30] What promise did God make to the world when he created you?  When I was financially below zero, living in my wife's parents' garage and working two part-time jobs, I reached a point of despair. At that moment, I made two solemn promises to myself with tears streaming down my face. I said to God, "If you ever help me find success, there are two things I will do." The first promise was, "I won't forget what it feels like to struggle. I'll remember that lump in my throat, the challenges I'm facing, and what it's like to be the underdog." The second promise was, "I'll do everything in my power to help others achieve their dreams and goals. I'll work tirelessly to inspire and serve them." I believe that God placed me on this earth with a mission to serve and add value to people's lives. This is why I cherish conversations like this. I hope that by sharing my experiences, I can help the next person stay in the game and keep moving forward.  Key Quotes [29:30-29:35] You are not who you are, you are who you are born to be and you are not what you did but what you repeatedly do.  [32:11-32:14] You can't always control what happens but you can control what happens next.  How to connect with Justin Prince Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamjustinprince Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/iamjustinprince Twitter: https://twitter.com/justinkprince

Soren Kierkegaard on the Self and God  “The greatest hazard of all, losing one's self, can occur very quietly in the world, as if it were nothing at all” - Soren Kierkegaard. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?—Jesus, Mark 8:36. The Human Condition: Who Are We? A. Philosophical problem: philosophical anthropology i. What is our nature? ii. What is our problem? iii. What is good for humans? B. Existential problem of being human under the sun i. How do we cope with our nature? ii. How do we address our problem? iii. How do we embrace the good and shun the bad? C. The Theme in Philosophy in Seven Sentences All of our philosophical sentences invoke or provoke the self, but from different angles. Protagoras brings it all back to the self, which is the measure of all things. I measured Protagoras wrong. Socrates exhorts the self to examine itself for truth for as long as it takes. For that, he should be commended and emulated. For Aristotle, our nature as human selves is to seek knowledge. He was right. Descartes finds certainty in his indubitable awareness that he is thinking and thus an existing being who has the concept of an infinite God in his mind. We could find worse places to start our investigations. Pascal exhorts us to consider reasons of the heart, that aspect of self that knows directly and intuitively. Groothuis, Douglas.

When we think of Western philosophers who pondered questions about the good life, we typically think of the classical era of Greece and the likes of Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle. But my guest would say that the poets and philosophers who came out of the preceding period, Greece's Iron Age, also have something to say about the nature of existence.Adam Nicolson is the author of How to Be: Life Lessons from the Early Greeks. Today on the show, Adam takes us on a tour of Iron Age Greece and how these seafaring people set the stage for our modern sense of self. Adam makes the case that the early Greeks had what he calls a "harbor mindset," which lent them a mentality centered on fluidity and transience. We discuss how Odysseus exemplifies this harbor mindset, and how a group of lesser-known pre-Socratic philosophers defined life through a lens of change and contradiction. Adam then explains how a mystical guru named Pythagoras paved the way for Greek thinkers like Plato and Aristotle and the rise of cooperative civility.Resources Related to the PodcastAdam's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #857 — Why Homer MattersAoM Podcast #337: What Homer's Odyssey Can Teach Us TodayThe philosophers of Miletus:AnaximenesThalesAnaximander

Dive into the ancient wisdom of Aristotle as we unravel the mysteries of existence with his theory of the Four Causes. In this brief (but hopefully enlightening!) video, we'll explore the fundamental questions that have captivated thinkers for centuries: What is the essence of being? Why do things occur the way they do? Aristotle's answers lie in his Four Causes – Material, Formal, Efficient, and Final. These causes offer a timeless framework that has shaped philosophical thought and our understanding of the world around us.

 In a competitive space like the liquor and spirits industry, it's almost impossible to come up with a name for your business. So, Michael McGeary—who holds a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy from Colorado College—drew inspiration from the ideals he aspires to: he looked at Aristotle and his eudaimonia, the principle of living well and finding meaning in life. Thus, Euda Wine was born. Alongside his wife, Abi, Michael runs Euda Wine in Old Fort, North Carolina and is focused on crafting transparent, authentic, and minimal-intervention wines. In this episode, Mike and I discuss the origin story of Euda Wine. We explore the challenges of naming a winery in a competitive industry. We describe the growing collaboration in the alcohol industry and how it can lead to innovative and unique products. We also outline Euda Wine's upcoming product releases and underscore its philosophy of making authentic wine. This week on Consuming the Craft: ●     How Aristotle's eudaimonia concept inspired Michael's Euda Wine●     The importance of checking the USPTO for trademarks when naming a business●     Michael's background in viticulture and enology●     Sparkling wines, skin-contact Tremonette, carbonic maceration wine, and upcoming Euda Wine releases●     The challenges of not having your own vineyard●     Michael's favorite wine to make●     How Euda Wine is working with partner vineyards●     The rise of non-vinifera varietals and the importance of working with grapes that grow well locally●     Booze Clues: what industry collaboration tastes like●     The collaborative and innovative spirit of the craft alcohol industry●     Euda Wine's philosophy in making authentic wine●     Michael's vision for the future of Euda Wine Resources Mentioned: ●     The United States Patent and Trademark Office Connect with Michael McGeary: ●     Enartis●     Euda Wine●     Euda Wine on LinkedIn●     Euda Wine on Instagram●     Euda Wine on Facebook●     Michael McGeary on LinkedIn●     michael@eudawine.com Consuming the Craft Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of the Consuming the Craft Podcast, brought to you by AB Tech's Craft Beverage Institute of the Southeast.

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Thirty-first Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 487The Saint of the day is Blessed John Duns ScotusBlessed John Duns Scotus' Story A humble man, John Duns Scotus has been one of the most influential Franciscans through the centuries. Born at Duns in the county of Berwick, Scotland, John was descended from a wealthy farming family. In later years, he was identified as John Duns Scotus to indicate the land of his birth; Scotia is the Latin name for Scotland. John received the habit of the Friars Minor at Dumfries, where his uncle Elias Duns was superior. After novitiate, John studied at Oxford and Paris and was ordained in 1291. More studies in Paris followed until 1297, when he returned to lecture at Oxford and Cambridge. Four years later, he returned to Paris to teach and complete the requirements for the doctorate. In an age when many people adopted whole systems of thought without qualification, John pointed out the richness of the Augustinian-Franciscan tradition, appreciated the wisdom of Aquinas, Aristotle, and the Muslim philosophers—and still managed to be an independent thinker. That quality was proven in 1303, when King Philip the Fair tried to enlist the University of Paris on his side in a dispute with Pope Boniface VIII. John Duns Scotus dissented, and was given three days to leave France. In Scotus's time, some philosophers held that people are basically determined by forces outside themselves. Free will is an illusion, they argued. An ever-practical man, Scotus said that if he started beating someone who denied free will, the person would immediately tell him to stop. But if Scotus didn't really have a free will, how could he stop? John had a knack for finding illustrations his students could remember! After a short stay in Oxford, Scotus returned to Paris, where he received the doctorate in 1305. He continued teaching there and in 1307 so ably defended the Immaculate Conception of Mary that the university officially adopted his position. That same year the minister general assigned him to the Franciscan school in Cologne where John died in 1308. He is buried in the Franciscan church near the famous Cologne cathedral. Drawing on the work of John Duns Scotus, Pope Pius IX solemnly defined the Immaculate Conception of Mary in 1854. John Duns Scotus, the “Subtle Doctor,” was beatified in 1993. Reflection Father Charles Balic, O.F.M., the foremost 20th-century authority on Scotus, has written: “The whole of Scotus's theology is dominated by the notion of love. The characteristic note of this love is its absolute freedom. As love becomes more perfect and intense, freedom becomes more noble and integral both in God and in man” (New Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. 4, p. 1105). Learn more about John Duns Scotus!

In today's solo cast, we are exploring the crime of the century how the lockdown and CV!9 theater broke billions of minds, and how we can prevent this from happening as an individual and a collective in 2023 and beyond. Look, it is no surprise that you made it here to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast. Maybe you saw the title and you clicked it maybe you already feel the way that I feel and that we feel in this community and that is that we have been robbed and sometimes the most loving thing we can do is to be at war. By the end of this solo cast, I will promise you that you'll take away the following five big rocks that you can use to protect yourself and your family and your mind, most importantly, from any future attacks on your ancient brain specifically the amygdala. We'll discuss some of the most cutting-edge and recent developments in the origin of the CV!9. Why Matt Ridley, a British writer, journalist, and public speaker, has written a book about CV!9 and has collectively sold over a million copies that have been translated into 31 languages. The framing of the plandemic as a political distraction. How fear-based headlines grab hold of your neural chemistry, and what to do about it. The real reason for spiritual and consciousness maturation that we are destined to learn from this theatre nonsense in early 2020. What tools I use when I'm overwhelmed and stressed. How to bulletproof your mind against amygdala hijacking.   [02:10] COMMUNISM + MIND CONTROL TACTICS Now look, I know it's a touchy subject for media, and probably many are exhausted with this conversation about the pandemic and lockdowns and masks and jabs and medical freedom and Gestapo mind control from the media and the government but this is something that we need to and we must and we get to explore. Otherwise, our children and our children's children will pay the price. Somewhere in your subconscious mind, there's probably already a question why should I listen to josh for the next 10 minutes? Well, I will tell you, because I've spent the past two years just like you, experiencing the nuclear fallout from an economic, mental health, the community split by the acts of what I believe is communism and mind control tactics by the most elite of the elite, who essentially run the world. I'm talking about the powers that be behind closed doors at Vanguard and BlackRock capital. I'm talking about $20 trillion that is managed by Vanguard and BlackRock and probably a lot more that just isn't showing publicly. All you have to do, and don't worry you won't go down the rabbit hole today and there's no tinfoil hat needed, is make the connections between the two largest capital firms in the entire planet, literally in the history of humanity, this much wealth has never been held by such few people. Now, the free market capitalist inside of you and inside of me is celebrating when people succeed, but there is a limit to the succession of financial gain when it comes to creating scarcity and fear, and pain for others. What do I mean by this? Let's dig in. All of the money in the world can be funneled into and out of the largest capital firms like Vanguard, and BlackRock, traced to, and from the federal reserve, which is a private company that is for profit which most people get wrong, and of course, traced to the United States federal government, and then that is where all the money supposedly gets applied to state and local city governments. But you and I both know if you've ever gone to get a driver's license or registration or a permit that the existential energy and every single office whether at a local city or federal level has a flavor doesn't it? It has a flavor of lies and frustration, like an existential pressure that we all can feel whenever we step foot into a government or authority organization. Now the father in me knows that order and structure, and a framework for chaos, which is life is necessary. But you and I also both know that too much structure allows for no flow and no energy to move from point a to point B. In other words, too much control given to too few people will ultimately yield corruption and that is exactly what we are seeing with the financial system. Make sure that you listen to the episode with Robert Breedlove, where he does an incredible job, breaking down the financial system, and the rise of cryptocurrency it is a master class on financial wellness. It's very important for you to listen to this episode.   [05:40] WHY THE TRUTH IS BEING HIDDEN FROM US Now back to the crime of the century. The reason we had to talk about money before that is because money created this CV!9 theater. Period and stop. If you look at the YouTube video interview with Jordan Peterson and Matt Ridley, the author of Viral: The Search For The Origin Of CV!9, titled The Origin Of CV!9, you will learn from the most accurate and observational research of the data that mainstream media is not sharing that there is a smoking gun when it comes to the Chinese communist party and their involvement in the leaking out of this virus that caused so much death and destruction and mind control. And emails now exposed the head of the NIH, the National Institute of Health is quoted: “We can't damage international harmony, we mustn't dampen the reputation of Chinese science.” And this, my friend, is the smoking gun, the Wuhan CV!9 research lab in China. Still to this day, has not released their files about what viruses they were working on at the time of the leak and the outbreak. When the Chinese lab was confronted by the United States government to release their records, they were told no. If this isn't the biggest smoking gun, that should allow natural sacred anger and sacred rage to come forth from you and I and us as a collective, then nothing ever will. What we have gone through over the past 2 and a half years is a vile and disgusting cover-up, to which there may never be forgiveness and tell the truth is exposed. Matt really continues to share with us through his research that conversations were controlled by the communist party in China here in America and censorship that was funded by. The CCP has been rolling out ever since the leak. Now I'm sure this episode is going to get flagged whenever you mention CCP or China or BlackRock or any of the terms I'm talking about automatically the technocrat agencies will flag this episode as a controversy or that you don't have the responsibility in your own mind to protect yourself against me. So they are going to place a huge blue or green or black label on this continent where you're listening or watching it to “keep you safe” and isn't that so disgusting that these technocrat agencies don't believe in you, they don't believe in your own agency and filter of information so they slap warnings on contact like this to “keep you safe “which is essentially hidden censorship. It should not surprise you by now, but there is a silver lining in this, which I will get to you in a moment.   [09:23] CV!9: A POLITICAL DISTRACTION? Essentially, what has been happening is that all media has been controlled and the entire Plandemic was used as a political distraction tool to divide people into pro-mask or anti-mask, pro job or anti-jab pro BLM or anti-BLM and it's all a fucking joke and a fucking lie and you and I both know it. This is divisional language 101. If you look at military tactics of war, the very first thing you do is that you put sides against each other then you confuse them, then you take away their resources, then you control the world and all of its people. Is it so hard to believe that at the highest level your attention is being controlled which will lead to the choices that disempower you and disenfranchise you from your very own freedom? This is why billions of minds were broken because the truth will set us free but in order to have freedom we must have freedom of press and freedom of speech which you and I both know absolutely was under siege over the past 2 and a half years and even more aggressively so now, which is why we're here on this podcast to get the mental physical, emotional, spiritual and financial truth about how we can support our wellness. And wellness starts in the body and in the mind. Head over to the show notes page JoshTrent.com/501 if you want to get all the links and resources and dive much deeper with me into this topic let's move on because I promised you we would get into five core aspects that you can use to bulletproof your mind about anything similar that may happen in the future so let's continue.   [10:55] THE ILLUSION OF SEPARATION So why is this all happening? Let's take a deep breath. I believe this is happening because we are in need of a collective and an individual wake-up call. The quote by Aristotle that Alan Watts has been very famous for is that nature abhors a vacuum. Nature hates a vacuum. Well, the vacuum that is being pulled on us by the media, and by those at the highest levels of power is sucking away our sovereignty and our individuality through the lens of “it's for your safety. The real reason for this pandemic and of this insanity is that we have to crack open so that light can pour out of us and into us. We are living as Paul Levy my guest on episode 503 next week will share in a collective dream. We will go much deeper into this topic next week, which I know you would love. The collective dream is that we are separate. We believe this dream of illusion that there is such a difference between the hearts in our chests, in the air that we breathe and the emotions that we all feel. We are taught that we are separate, but we are not. We are absolutely not separate. We never have been, and we never will be. So in order to come to the truth, we have to experience the vacuum the contrast, the darkness, the opposite of love. I don't know why God made it this way my friend, it makes me sad at times and it's definitely a spiritual maturation process for me to accept, but it is what it is and so what do we do about it now? You've heard me say many times since interviewing my friend and mentor Scott Jackson that we are at cause, but being at cause does not always mean that we are at fault. But it is with our compliance and our talking detail between her legs and wearing the masks and getting the jobs and following orders and hoping it will all go away… This is what perpetuates the darkness and perpetuates the attacks on the mind.   [13:08] STEPS TO BULLETPROOF YOUR MIND So let's talk about how to bulletproof the mind so you can be free of this control, tactic by the media and the highest elite power. The very first thing you must do is to place your phone on “do not disturb.” I know it's a very simple thing, but place your phone on do not disturb, next have specific times that you check social media. Once, twice, maybe three times a day, or just have specific days that you check social media. Next, and this is very very important, whenever you see something on your Instagram Facebook, social media feeds, or news and it makes you feel fear and you'll know you're feeling fear because your prefrontal cortex will shut down and you'll start feeling anger or sadness or rage, immediately unfollow, block, and hide the source that showed you the main control message. I'm talking about CNB, CMS, MBC, Fox, CBC, BCBBB, whatever the acronyms are it doesn't even matter. Any major news outlet – immediately unfollow it. There are only five news outlets globally, and they hide behind subsidiaries. And if you don't believe me just do a quick Google search or search on YouTube for the video titled “This Is Extremely Dangerous to Our Democracy” and you'll see what I mean. It's also in the show notes at JoshTrent.com/501.   [14:40] TAKING CARE OF YOUR BODY TO STRENGTHEN YOUR MIND Next, if you want to bulletproof your mind, you have to care and love for your body. Now look you don't need to buy anything for this but if you have income that you're spending on alcohol, drugs or partying, or anything else that is taking you away from your physical sovereignty I want you to listen really really closely here. JoshTrent.com/Store it's really serious and meaningful to me. I've worked very hard to get the deepest discounts possible to get you all the tools that will fuel and support your physical mental emotional, spiritual and financial health so you can be well and when you're well you're less controllable when you're healthy, you're less controllable. There's two specific products I want you to use. The first one is the Upbeat from Nootopia, and the second one is the Kanna or the MesemBright from LiftMode. Both of these are built to support your new chemistry and make your mind and your nervous system strong. When you combine that with your discipline of putting your phone on “do not disturb” and hiding the fear-based news, you were going to be rock-solid, my friend that is my promise. Another way that you can bulletproof yourself is through breathwork and meditation. As you know, I absolutely love breathwork. It is a core part of my life and you can join me in a three-week program titled Breathe: Breath & Wellness. The new year is coming. It's a perfect time for you to join me in the program you can go to breathwork.io and use the code “PODCAST25” to get 25% off the Breathe: Breath & Wellness program in that program will talk about the many layers you can put into place right away to make you bulletproof physically and mentally from this mind control from the media by just using your breath in the most intelligent way. That's breathwork.io. Use the code “PODCAST25” to support and nourish yourself through your breath. I really like the MitoZen Nasal Spray. It has got oxytocin and Hape. It's very calming. I use it in the evenings to connect with my partner or if I'm feeling stressed. Here's the key if you feel like you're out of your body, you most likely are, and when you're out of your body, your prefrontal cortex is shut down. So when you spray the oxytocin and the Hape into your sinuses, you come back into your body. The prefrontal cortex starts to come back online and you're actually yourself again you can go to JoshTrent.com/MitoZen and use the code “WELLNESSFORCE” to get 15% off the oxytocin and Hape Zen nasal spray. Now look again, you don't have to buy any of these things. I just love them I use them myself and thousands of people in our Wellness + Wisdom Community have purchased them and use them as well so I think they will really really help you.   [17:55] SPARKING MEANINGFUL CONVERSATIONS And I trust that this podcast lit a fire inside of your heart to motivate you to dig deeper in 2023 and have this conversation at the holiday table or with a friend or with a family member who just simply does not know. Maybe they're unconsciously incompetent about it, in other words, they don't even know they don't know this can be your special moment to connect with a friend or a family member that you haven't connected with for a long time and make it a meaningful conversation. Please, share this podcast with someone who literally does not know that they don't know share this crime of the century how this CV!9 theater broke billions of minds and how we can heal collectively. Everything today's at JoshTrent.com/501 from my heart to yours thank you for being here please share this podcast. Please leave us a review at JoshTrent.com/Review.
