With spring games coursing on over the weekend, the Astros took on the Cardinals Friday followed with the Yankees and the Nationals throughout the weekend. Winning against the Cardinals on Friday but falling short Saturday and yesterday, the Astros finish the weekend 1-2 rolling into another fresh week of spring games. Noting some changes around the field with Altuve in left-field now followed by Paredes plugged in at third and rotating prospects around the infield, the Astros look to be stringing things along in determining spots before the start of the season. With the infield looking pretty solid lots of attention has now turned to the outfield, not in regards to their production on defense but rather their production on offense. Attaining his first hits this spring training followed with two RBI's yesterday, Jake Meyers had himself a day with many raising question if this can be sustained in the long run. With Altuve the leadoff hitter moving from the infield and Yordan now mostly the Astros DH, should there be a concern with the offensive production in the outfield roughly pertaining to the backend of the lineup?

In the journey to improving our health, diet and exercise are considered the paramount activities that lead to transformation. While focusing on those two areas is important, we also need to prioritize spiritual growth. In order to experience physical transformation, we have to transform spiritually and mentally first. That's why I developed a program with 6 pillars, and took a more holistic approach that tends to your entire being. Everyone wants to be healthier, but implementing lasting change is easier said than done. When we bring God into the process, and stop striving in our own power, it gets easier. God is able to give us strength when it gets hard, and that spiritual aspect actually cascades into all the other aspects of improving ourselves. How do you set yourself up for lasting success when it comes to health? How do you build solid habits that can withstand disruptions in your routine? In this episode, I'm joined by one of my clients, Harsha Jayatunge. He shares his experience in the TLC 6 Pillar program, lessons he learned and what he's done to implement long term change and transformation. Things You'll Learn In This Episode -The piece that ties it all together Committing to lifestyle changes can be challenging if we don't bring God into the process. We can't do it on our own strength. How does the spiritual aspect of the 6 pillars make it easier for us to achieve our health goals? -How to make good habits stick How do we bake our habits in so that when our lives or routines are disrupted, it's easier to get back on the wagon? -Setting yourself up for lasting success Attaining better health isn't just about taking the right medications and eating the right types/amounts of food. Why does mindset play such a huge role in the process?

Liturgy Sermon @ Three Holy Youth Coptic Orthodox Church - Rockwall, TX ~ December 4, 2025
Unleash your physical freedom. Reclaim your body and mind from bad habits, restrictive and narrow goals, and unrealistic expectations. Physical Freedom: Financial Freedom as an Analogy The concept of financial freedom - no longer stressing about finances and not having to trade your time for things you do not wish to do - helps derive useful lessons for health and fitness. Attaining financial freedom requires discipline. One must define and follow through with hard decisions over a long period of time. This, though, is the path to freedom. Don't look for shortcuts. And, even if you somehow find yourself with a sudden pile of money, you will only use that money well if you have developed the habits ahead of time. Physical Freedom: Bash Bad Habits The first and most obvious steps you must take is to remove bad habits. You have trouble saying no to highly processed sugary foods. You overeat. Do you feel free when you make these decisions that do not align with your stated goals? Of course not! Freedom requires some discipline to build virtues (e.g. the virtue of temperance so you can willingly say no to the donuts). Physical Freedom: Remove Restrictive Goals Many of our coaches and clients have followed overly restrictive goals that they bought into. For example, you follow the dictum that physical strength is the most important thing in life. When you follow this, you will sacrifice your health and get fat to pursue this goal. You will avoid activities you enjoy, such as skiing, swimming, hiking, because this will remove weight on the bar in your next session. Unless you have a hyper-specific goal or truly believe such a restrictive goal is true, ditch this counterproductive dogma. Physical Freedom: Own Your Choices Here is another example. You are so concerned with leanness, that your plan (even if you have not said this explicitly) requires you to never eat your grandma's pie again. Is this really sustainable? Can you avoid every holiday food for every meal forever? Are you really going to eat chicken breast and broccoli every meal. When you have physical freedom, you can choose in indulge when appropriate, knowing you will not go off the rails and that you can make another choice to get leaner after a vacation or holiday period.

Without spiritual strength, we can't maintain niṣṭha or steadiness in practice. So to this end two points about practice. One is it's really hard to make it up at the last minute. Sometimes people become serious about Kṛṣṇa consciousness, but they're, of course, Khaṭvāṅga Mahārāja is an example. Even at the last minute, you can, you should try, and you can do it. But generally, if you try to pass a test at the last minute by studying the night before, it's very difficult, because it takes time to develop momentum, to have spiritual strength or acumen in any particular subject. So don't try to make it up at the last minute, because we've seen people near death, and then they say, I'd like to do it, but I don't have the yoga-balena, I don't have the spiritual strength. So remember that your practice is giving you the spiritual strength now so that you'll be prepared especially for death. Because you have to be able to be strong when you leave this body in order to attain the destination that requires niṣṭha, steadiness in the practice. And we get that through sāṅkhya-pūrvaka, which means numerical strength. So you have to be consistent and keep a certain number every day, can't fluctuate. So even if you start small, then keep that number and don't go below. And then gradually, when you feel spiritual strength, you climb the ladder, take the next steps, and take a higher number according to your qualification at that point. And then keep it. And if you stay there, and you keep that practice going, and arrange everything around that then you come to the stage of niṣṭha. And It's important also to remember that taste comes later, because oftentimes people say, I don't have any taste for this, but don't worry about that. Now worry about niṣṭha or steadiness. Now let your taste be in niṣṭha or steadiness, not in yugāyitaṁ nimeṣeṇa, that I'm feeling one moment to be like 12 years or more, where the tears are flowing from my eyes. That comes of its own accord, that comes as a descending process from Kṛṣṇa. He awards that to those who have attained niṣṭha. So have a taste for steadiness, and that comes from having a sense of duty. There's there is taste in doing one's duty that I'm doing this for a higher cause. You can get a taste from that. So get your taste in niṣṭha and duty. Don't worry about crying and rolling on the ground, or feeling like you're devastated because you're chanting the holy name that comes by Kṛṣṇa grace. Our part is to practice. We may be in the beginning, last point, we may be in the beginning feeling that I'm nowhere. I don't have any adhikārī whatsoever, but everyone can grab on somewhere (excerpt from the talk 13:45) ------------------------------------------------------------ More videos to revitalize your Japa: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkKtsBboQFvxPojUUp8O3Rc40FAtqIo0b To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ (USA only) https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #makejapagreatagain #kttvg #mantrameditation

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
How often do you take time off simply to rest? Do you carve out moments to recharge and find stillness before the daily whirlwind begins? If you're a successful entrepreneur who doesn't prioritize rest, you may be heading toward burnout. Today's featured guest is an entrepreneur who's created several noted frameworks for business owners, empowering countless individuals to elevate their businesses. Gino Wickman is an entrepreneur, content creator, and most notably the founder of Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS). Through the years he's noticed highly accomplished entrepreneurs tend to feel unfulfilled in what should be the highest point of their success. This happens when they forget the fundamental purpose behind building a successful business: to create a fulfilling life. In this episode, you will gain insights into achieving success while maintaining fulfillment in both your professional and personal life. Gino has created many business frameworks but EOS is what he's best known for and is used by hundreds of thousands of companies around the world. In his new book, "Shine," Gino explores the idea of achieving success while maintaining balance and fulfillment in life. This is something many entrepreneurs often struggle with and may not even realize it. In this episode, we'll discuss: Why business success isn't enough. Breaking work cycles. 3 discoveries to free your true self. The ten disciplines.

The Missing Piece: Why Isn't Business Success Enough? With a track record of thirty years working with entrepreneurs, Gino realized that, even though he has been helping them create thriving businesses, many of his clients continued to feel unfulfilled. This is something Gino himself can relate to and what led to him to creating his latest framework centered on helping entrepreneurs master both their inner and outer worlds. Many people achieve remarkable success but continue to feel unfulfilled or unbalanced, even if they have more money than they know what to do with. Attaining external success and continuing to struggle with finding purpose and feeling empty on the inside is common for business owners. This underscores the need to nurture our inner selves in addition to focusing on external achievements. In our fast-paced and achievement-oriented society, it's easy to get caught up in the pursuit of external success and validation. However, without a strong foundation of inner fulfillment, external achievements can feel hollow and unsatisfying. That's why prioritizing self-reflection, self-care, and personal growth is essential to cultivating a sense of inner peace and fulfillment. Breaking the Work-Hard and Hustle Cycle After selling EOS Worldwide, Gino found himself in a remarkable position, engaging in work that he genuinely loved. This newfound contentment revealed to him he had been operating under a belief system based on non-stop work since age fifteen. Back then he committed to work hard and build an empire around what he thought would make him happy. Now, years later, it finally hit him that he had been enduring the unhappiness created by his work obsession and the feeling of safe and contentment after the sale is what helped reveal this pattern. He realized it was time to work on his inner struggles and find true fulfillment. Just like Navy SEALs commonly experience trauma once they are safe at home, entrepreneurs often find that their inner demons come to the surface when they are not focused on a task or goal. These moments of stillness and introspection present an opportunity to confront our fears, insecurities, and past traumas, and ultimately free ourselves from the burdens that have been holding us back. To deal with this, Gino recommends meditation, which many people reject fearing that the moments of quiet will evoke past trauma. Nonetheless, Gino believes there is a need to let this stuff come up, to shed the layers of armor you've built up, and to free yourself. Achieving this freedom is what will allow individuals to make a real impact on the world and become much more creative. 3 Discoveries to Free Your True Self Some people think that growing and selling your business brings freedom. However, Gino presents a different perspective, advocating for three transformative insights that can help you unlock your authentic self while enhancing your energy, impact, and inner peace. Recognize and accept that being driven is part of an entrepreneur's DNA and wiring. Acknowledging this helps you navigate the ups and downs of that drive and recognize the impact it has on your mental, physical, and emotional well-being. All decisions are made out of love or fear. Understanding the motivations behind your actions will help you make more conscious choices that align with your true self rather than your ego. This awareness can help entrepreneurs break free from patterns of fear-based decision-making and move towards a place of love and authenticity. Know it is possible to be BOTH driven and have peace. This may seem contradictory at first, as many driven individuals equate drive with a constant state of hustle and striving. However, finding peace does not mean losing drive; in fact, it can enhance it. At this stage of his life, Gino has everything he'll ever need; nonetheless, he's more motivated than ever. By letting go of the need to constantly be in motion and finding a sense of inner calm, driven entrepreneurs can tap into a deeper source of motivation and creativity. The Ten Disciplines The next step after embracing these discoveries is how to implement them into your life. In this sense, Gino emphasizes the transformative power of shedding everything that isn't the real you. He encourages entrepreneurs to let go of societal expectations, comparisons to others, and unnecessary tasks or responsibilities that do not resonate with their core values and passions. The 10 disciplines outlined by Gino provide a roadmap for achieving this state of authenticity and include: Tenure thinking Taking time off Knowing oneself Being still Knowing one's 100% Saying no often Avoiding low-value tasks Preparing nightly Organizing one's life Practicing humility Following these disciplines, anyone can begin to strip away the layers of conditioning, false beliefs, and distractions that prevent them from living in alignment with their true selves. For instance, knowing your 100% is a step that will help you pinpoint the perfect amount of effort you'll need to create something amazing as an entrepreneur. Also known as the work container, this measure should answer how many weeks of the year and hours per week you can work to reach your maximum output without going over or under that measure. One extra hour over that measure may lead to burnout while one hour less might mean you'll start to get bored. The key to finding this magic number is to start experimenting with how you manage your time. Instead of deciding you'll only work three days of the week as of tomorrow, start reducing your working hours little by little and see how you feel, how your energy levels change, and whether or not you're still able to handle your workload. The perfect balance will allow you to manage your energy while making as big of an impact as possible. Learning to Sit Still Without Guilt Do you find it challenging to sit still? If so, you may struggle because your mind is preoccupied with tasks and responsibilities that are piling up, making it difficult to take a moment to reset and recharge. What does ‘stillness' mean in this scenario? It means four things: meditation, prayer, contemplation, or journaling. The idea behind this daily exercise is to set aside time to just stop and let your soul catch up to be present and aware. For his part, Gino recommends dedicating thirty minutes each day to simply sit in silence. As simple as that sounds, it's hard for driven entrepreneurs. If this is your case, just try starting with 10 minutes every day and slowly work your way up to 30 minutes. Being constant with this practice will allow you to feel more present, aware, energized, and creative, which will benefit every aspect of your life, not just your performance as an entrepreneur. Why 130 Days Off Could Boost Your Business Just like sitting still can be a challenge for entrepreneurs, taking time off can be even harder. However, Gino recommends business owners take at least 130 days off a year, which may seem like a lot if you're used to working long hours and prioritizing productivity above all else. Personally, Gino has taken the month of August off for the last twenty-five years and is a big believer in the power of a sabbatical. He insists these days off must be days when you do not think about work at all. By taking time off, we allow ourselves to rest and rejuvenate, which can lead to increased creativity, productivity, and overall well-being. It allows us to step back from our daily routines and responsibilities, gain perspective, and come back with a fresh outlook on life.

Church is a place for meaningful connection—a like-minded community which worships, prays, and participates together for the singular purpose of glorifying God. If King David's words from Psalm 133:1 are to be believed –– “How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity!” –– unity can exist. Attaining and maintaining this isn't easy. The apostle Paul had to remind the church to “make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace” (Ephesians 4:3). In his book, Life-Minded, Pastor Brady Boyd draws our attention to the reality of that text by pointing out it does take effort to stay unified with our spiritual family. Effort takes commitment. It takes persistence. It takes hope. Speaking both truth and grace, Pastor Brady offers 8 practical challenges to put peaceable unity into action.
