The Last Ten Nights Are HereBefore diving into the final ayah of Surah Al-Muzzammil, a timely reminder — tonight is the 23rd night of Ramadan. The last ten nights are upon us, and the Prophet ﷺ told us to hunt for Laylatul Qadr in these nights, especially the odd ones. Tonight is one of them.So what should fill these nights? Extra raka'at. Extra Quran. Extra dhikr. And the best du'a for this occasion comes to us through Sayyidatuna Aisha (رضي الله عنها), who asked the Prophet ﷺ: if I encounter the Night of Al-Qadr, what should I say? He replied: “Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul ‘afwa fa'fu ‘anni” — “O Allah, You are the Most Pardoning and You love to pardon, so pardon me.”Now, there's an important distinction here between ‘afw and ghafar. When we say astaghfirullah and ask for Allah's forgiveness (ghafar), the record of the sin remains — but the punishment is cancelled. The deed is still in the books on the Day of Mahshar, but Allah will not punish us for it.Al-'Afw is something else entirely. It is when the record is expunged altogether. Wiped clean. As if the sin never happened. This is why the Prophet ﷺ said that whoever fasts sincerely and prays during the nights of Ramadan — and catches Laylatul Qadr — will have all their past sins forgiven. They exit Ramadan like the day they were born. No record of sins whatsoever.It's just a few nights. Sleep a little less. Yes, there will be tiredness — that's okay. This is our training. Don't miss a night that is greater than a thousand months, greater than 83 years of worship.Grounded is a reader-supported publication.

Why? Because the day is full of heavy tasks — spreading truth, standing for justice, enduring hardship — and the strength to carry all of that comes from the spiritual work done at night. Reading about Jannah motivates. Reading about Jahannam sobers. The connection to Allah realigns everything.Then came the warning through the story of Fir'aun — richer, stronger, more powerful than the Quraysh, yet destroyed in an instant when he rejected Prophet Musa. Then the terrifying imagery of Yawmul Qiyamah: skies torn apart, children's hair turning white from sheer terror. And finally, the choice: believe and take the prophetic path, or reject and face the consequences. Every choice carries a consequence.Now the surah circles back to where it began — Qiyamul Layl — but this time with something remarkable: mercy.Allah Knows Our WeaknessThe original command was demanding. Stand up most of the night — two-thirds, or at least half, or at the very minimum a third. The Prophet ﷺ did this every single night, without exception, even while travelling, even during battle. But Allah knew that the rest of the ummah would struggle.Allah says: “Indeed, your Lord knows that you stand less than two-thirds of the night, sometimes half, sometimes even less than a third — and so do a group of those with you.”Allah is the One who measured the length of night and day. Some seasons, the nights are long and Qiyamul Layl is easier — in Perth during winter, Maghrib comes in at 5:15 and Fajr isn't until around six. Plenty of time to sleep and still wake up. But in the peak of summer, when Fajr is at 3:30? That's a different story. Allah knows all of this.And so He says: “He has forgiven you.” Qiyamul Layl is fard upon the Prophet ﷺ, but for the rest of us, Allah has already shown mercy and lifted that strict obligation.But Don't Abandon It AltogetherHere's the key — just because the full obligation has been eased doesn't mean doing nothing is an option. Allah says: “So read what is easy for you from the Quran.” Stand up for even two raka'at. Read whatever surahs have been memorised. Carve out even a small portion of the night for spiritual work.This is a fundamental principle in Islam: what cannot be accomplished entirely should not be abandoned in totality. Islam doesn't teach perfectionism — it's not 100% or nothing. It teaches consistent effort. The Prophet ﷺ said that the most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are consistent, even if they are small. Two raka'at every single night outweighs a marathon session once a month.And this, by the way, is one of the great purposes behind memorising the Quran — so that those surahs can be recited in prayer. Al-Kahf, Al-Mulk, Al-Baqarah — they come alive when recited standing before Allah at night.The Three Excuses Allah AcceptsThen Allah provides specific concessions. First: those who are sick. Illness isn't a choice — when rest is needed for recovery, Allah says it's okay.But then come two more categories that are remarkable, because they are things people can choose — and Allah still grants them as valid reasons for doing less Qiyamul Layl.The first: those who travel the earth seeking Allah's bounty — meaning those who are out working, doing business, building economic stability. The second: those who fight in the path of Allah, defending the religion and the community.These two are placed in equal standing. Working hard to earn a living is given the same weight as defending the faith. That is extraordinary. It tells us something profound about how Islam views economic productivity — not as a worldly distraction, but as an act valued by Allah Himself.The Prophet ﷺ said the best rizq is what a person earns from their own effort, and he pointed to Prophet Dawud (عليه السلام) as the example — a prophet, a king, and yet also a blacksmith who worked with iron and ate from the labour of his own hands.Ibn Umar expressed this beautifully. He said the best deaths he could wish for were two: martyrdom in the path of Allah, and dying on a business journey — on his camel, with his trade goods, on his way to earn a living. Because this ayah puts them side by side.Islam Wants Muslims to Be Wealthy — But With PurposeThe encouragement to work hard and build wealth doesn't come without direction. Islam doesn't say: get rich so you can buy the fanciest car, then a fancy island, and once you run out of things to buy on earth, spend a trillion dollars trying to conquer Mars.Islam says: be rich, but that's not the end goal. The ummah becomes strong when Muslims have economic power and an akhirah mindset. With wealth, the community can build schools, support students in critical fields, fund long-term projects. This is Sadaqatul Jariyah — continuously flowing charity that keeps giving long after the initial contribution.There's a telling hadith in Imam Al-Nawawi's Forty Collection that captures this tension perfectly. The poor companions once came to the Prophet ﷺ and complained: “Ya Rasulullah, the rich have taken all the extra reward! They pray like we pray, they fast like we fast — but they can give charity from their surplus wealth, and we can't.” The Prophet ﷺ reassured them that dhikr — saying SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar — is also charity. The poor companions went away happy. But a few days later? The rich started doing dhikr too. Now they had both. The poor came back and said: what about us now?The point isn't to vilify poverty. The Prophet ﷺ went on to explain that there is charity in every good act — helping someone onto their ride, carrying someone's load. But wealth opens doors that nothing else can. Zakat, the pillar of Islam, is only payable by those who have wealth. And the framing matters: it's not that the wealthy have to pay zakat — they get to pay zakat. Without wealth, that entire pillar of Islam is inaccessible. And hajj is the same.The story of Sayyidina Uthman (رضي الله عنه) at the Battle of Tabuk drives this home. He donated so generously — horses, camels, wealth — that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Nothing Uthman does after this will harm him.” Guaranteed paradise. And Uthman wasn't living in poverty. He had luxuries. But look at the scale of what his wealth allowed him to do for the ummah.At the same time, Islam doesn't expect anyone to give 100% away. The best charity, the Prophet ﷺ said, is what is spent on family — on spouses, on children. The balance is always there: spend on yourself, on your family, and on the ummah for the sake of the akhirah.The Beautiful LoanEven with all these concessions, Allah says: still, read what is easy from the Quran. Establish your salah. Pay your zakat. Don't let the extras overshadow the foundations — a hundred raka'at of Qiyamul Layl mean nothing if Fajr is missed. Generous charity donations mean nothing if zakat is neglected. The obligatory always comes first.Then comes a stunning phrase: “And give Allah a beautiful loan (qard hasan).”A qard hasan is a loan with no deadline for repayment and no interest. Every good deed — every act of worship, every charity, every kindness — is a loan to Allah. And here's the beauty of it: Allah doesn't need our loan. He owns everything in the heavens and the earth and everything in between and beyond. He could simply say: “That's Mine, I gave it to you, give it back.”But in His mercy, Allah understands human nature. He understands that people are wired to think in terms of profit and return on investment. So He frames it as a transaction: give Me a loan, and I will surely repay you — multiplied many times over. In human transactions, demanding extra on a qard is riba. But with Allah, He is the One promising to multiply the return. It's the ultimate ROI.And what can a person invest with? Two things: wealth or skills. Both require Muslims to be hardworking.It's All For UsAllah then makes something clear: whatever is sent forth for the akhirah, it's essentially for our own benefit. Allah doesn't need our investment. Every command He gives is for our sake, not His.And there's a profound observation embedded here. As humanity lives more and more comfortably — materially, physically — mental health continues to decline. The richer the country, the higher the rates of depression and anxiety. Why? Because life without purpose erodes the soul. When everything is easy and comfortable, humans lose their sense of direction.Islam solves this by providing a purpose so enormous that no amount of wealth or comfort can make it irrelevant: getting to Jannah. How do we get there? That question structures every day, every decision, every effort. It keeps life purposeful no matter the circumstances. And when the community works together with that shared purpose, everyone rises.Ending with IstighfarThe surah closes with a command to seek Allah's forgiveness. Wastaghfirullah — make istighfar. There are two dimensions to this.First, the timing. The pre-dawn hours — suhoor time — are the best time for istighfar. Allah praises those who seek forgiveness in the early morning. For those already awake for Qiyamul Layl, this flows naturally.Second, there's a subtler reason. Sometimes, in the middle of worship and good deeds, something dangerous creeps into the heart. A feeling of: “I woke up for Qiyamul Layl. I read Surah Al-Kahf in one raka'ah and Surah Al-Mulk in the next. I'm amazing.” Or after giving a large charity: “I'm so generous. Look at what I gave.”This is kibr — arrogance — and it's one of Shaitan's favourite tricks. When he can't stop someone from doing good deeds, he tries to spoil the deed through the intention. So the surah ends with the antidote: astaghfirullah. Centre yourself. Realign the intention. “Ya Allah, if there was any misalignment in my heart, I seek Your forgiveness.”Indeed, Allah is Most Forgiving and Most Merciful.The Complete Message of Surah Al-MuzzammilAnd with that, Surah Al-Muzzammil comes to a close. Its message is beautifully complete: stay up at night, even a little. Pray. Read Quran. Let that spiritual recharge fuel everything in the day — the work, the earning, the serving of the ummah. Islam is a religion of balance: worship at night, work hard in the day. And in between, give everything its right. The body has a right — rest, nutrition, exercise. Family has a right — time and attention. And Allah has a right — acts of worship.Fulfil all those rights. That's the straight path.Your Action Steps This Week* Make the du'a of Laylatul Qadr every night. Memorise “Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul ‘afwa fa'fu ‘anni”and repeat it abundantly in the remaining nights of Ramadan. Understand the difference — this isn't just asking for forgiveness, it's asking for a complete clean slate.* Do something every night, even if it's small. If two raka'at is all that's manageable, pray two raka'at. If one page of Quran is what's realistic, read one page. Don't let the inability to do everything become an excuse to do nothing.* Reframe how work fits into worship. This ayah places earning a livelihood alongside fighting in the path of Allah. Approach work this week with the conscious intention that economic productivity is an act Allah values — and use what is earned to benefit family and community.* Audit the foundations before the extras. Before adding more nawafil, make sure the obligatory salah and zakat are fully in order. The extras don't compensate for gaps in the foundations.* End every night with istighfar. After Qiyamul Layl, after du'a, after any act of worship — close with astaghfirullah. Let it be the safeguard against arrogance creeping into the heart through the very deeds meant to bring closeness to Allah.May Allah grant us the strength to apply the lessons from Surah Al-Muzzammil — to pray at night, recite the Quran, and work hard in the day for the benefit of the ummah. May Allah allow us to enter Jannah with the Prophet ﷺ and with the Sahaba.Next week, inshaAllah, we begin Suratul Muddaththir. Don't forget — tonight is the 23rd night. Qiyamul Layl. Stay up extra. Make lots of du'a.Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.Thanks for reading Grounded! This post is public so feel free to share it. This is a public episode.

Dr. Friday highlights expanded IRS partnership audit enforcement under the Bipartisan Budget Act framework. She stresses clean records for basis, allocations, and distributions to protect partners. Transcript G’day, I’m Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday’s Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment. And this is really for people that are in partnerships, which would also be LLCs. The IRS is expanding its partnership audit regime against the Bipartisan Budget Act framework, which allows adjustments to be assessed at the partnership level rather than partner level. That means the partnership can actually end up with the partner being in trouble, so you need to make sure proper documentation is in place. The partnership must maintain clear records supporting basis calculations, income allocations, and distributions. These are important words, and you need to make sure your tax person and accountant are doing them. You need help? drfriday.com.

Hey Team! This week I've got Cate Osborn and Erik Gude on the show. Cate, known online as Catieosaurus, holds an M.Ed and uses her background in research and sex education to help neurodivergent folks navigate relationships and communication. Erik, known online as HeyGude, is an advocate and speaker who uses his platform to destigmatize the messy internal monologue of the ADHD brain. Honestly, it almost feels like I don't need to introduce these two given everything they've produced; they are definitely an online powerhouses. I've been a fan of their podcast, Catie and Erik's Infinite Quest: An ADHD Adventure, for quite a while now. So I imagine you've probably seen at least something from them. And they've spent the last few years distilling their combined experiences into a new book designed to act as a foundational knowledge base for neurodivergent adults. The book The ADHD Field Guide for Adults was a ton of fun to read; it's written in an incredibly ADHD-friendly manner, and I really appreciated the approach, making this a book for adults where I don't feel like I'm being talked down to. So in the episode, we're definitely talking about the book, but we go into a ton of different topics. We talk about the "systems-first" approach to ADHD management. We break down the precision of language and why understanding that distinction matters. And a whole lot more, there's just a ton of stuff in this episode. Check out The ADHD Field Guide for Adults which is available in hardcover, e-book, and as an audiobook narrated by the authors Cate and Erik. Visit Catieosaurus.com for information on Cate's national tour, "Wildly Unprepared," and upcoming book signing events.

Shame is an unchangeable dead end, but guilt is a "window for change" that allows you to acknowledge a behavior, such as being late or having a messy car, without condemning your entire identity. Recognize that "defeat" is often more comfortable than "failure" because defeat asks nothing of you; it simply means the game is over. Overcoming ADHD difficulties requires a healthy relationship with failure. Try viewing failure as a data point for "dissecting the system" rather than a reason to just stop trying. Many ADHD systems fail because they are built to satisfy "residual gook" from childhood. We often have internalized rules about how things "should" be done, like folding socks or separating silverware that have no basis beyond that it's just how we've always done it. Audit your tasks to see if you actually care about the result; if you don't, dismantling the expectation (like using bins instead of folding laundry) can remove the cognitive load of a performance you don't actually value.

Mitch Bach talks with Jenn Barbee, co-founder of Destination Innovate, about the real inner workings of DMOs, those three letters that every tour operator has an opinion about but few actually understand. Jenn has spent 30 years inside destination marketing, from a shoestring US Department of Commerce team trying to promote America on a $50,000 budget to her current work closing the gap between DMOs and the small businesses they are supposed to serve. The conversation covers how DMOs get funded, why they sit on valuable visitor data, and what tour operators can actually do to get beyond the dead-end website listing.It goes further than the typical "how to work with your tourism board" advice. Jenn and Mitch get into the identity crisis hitting tour operators and DMOs at the same time: both are losing ground to OTA platforms, both need direct guest relationships, and neither is building enough local partnerships to fight back. They talk short-term rental hosts as untapped referral channels, guerrilla marketing tactics that cost almost nothing, and the hard truth about inbound tourism to the US heading into World Cup and the 250th anniversary.Key TakeawaysYour DMO has expensive visitor data that could sharpen your product, pricing, and ads, but they will not hand it over unless you ask. 06:14 – 07:19 DMOs invest in data about visitor appetite, competing markets, and traveler clusters by neighborhood and interest type. That information rarely trickles down to small tour businesses because DMOs feel pressure to contextualize it or fear judgment on their numbers. Frame your ask around strengthening the destination's tourism product, not just helping your business, and you stand a real chance of getting access to insights you could never afford on your own.The single best first move with your DMO is to find the community manager and introduce yourself with specific visitor language, not a sales pitch. 11:48 – 12:58 Audit your tour product against what the destination website is promoting in terms of itineraries or themes, then reach out where you see a match or a gap. Lead with collaboration. Once you have that baseline, you can inch toward higher-value asks like data sharing or co-promotion, but only after you have earned the relationship through showing up and being useful.Survey your customers about whether they booked the experience before the hotel, then bring that data to the DMO. 56:29 – 56:39 If you can show a DMO that your tour attracted bed nights, you are speaking their only real language: occupancy and bed tax justification. Most tour operators never collect this data, and most DMOs have never seen it from a small business. It positions you as a strategic asset rather than another name on a listings page.DMOs are shifting from marketing organizations to stewardship organizations, and that tension is something you can use. 08:50 – 09:59 Many DMOs now describe themselves as "destination management" or "stewardship" organizations, moving toward what is right for their communities. Their boards and bed tax collectors still want heads-in-beds KPIs. If your tour disperses visitors into underserved neighborhoods, supports local businesses, or tells a more honest destination story, you become the kind of partner that helps a DMO justify its new direction to the people holding the purse strings.Getting listed on the DMO website is a win. Stop underestimating it. 13:10 – 13:45 Many operators treat a listing as table stakes, but some DMOs do not even offer that without a paid membership. If you are listed, follow up by tagging the DMO constantly on social media and feeding them content they can reshare within their brand guidelines. The social media managers have more flexibility than the executive staff and will amplify content that feels fresh or on-brand.If your local DMO is stuck promoting only the marquee attractions, skip them and go to the state level. 17:38 – 18:32 A DMO locked into bread-and-butter promotion is usually in protection mode, worried about occupancy numbers. State tourism offices have embraced experience-driven programming and are more open to working with operators who tell a broader story. For most small tour businesses, the state governor's conference on tourism is where accessible DMO relationships start.Short-term rental hosts are closer to the guest than any DMO, and tour operators should be building direct relationships with them now. 24:31 – 26:00 Short-term rentals nationally overtook hotels in occupancy as of September 2025. Those hosts talk directly to guests about what to do in town. A recommendation from a local Airbnb host is warmer than any OTA listing and costs zero commission. Finding them is manual (social media DMs, local searches), but the payoff is a direct referral channel with no middleman.Stop chasing first-time visitors. Loyal, repeat visitors spend more, stay longer, and sustain the businesses that matter. 32:49 – 33:32 DMOs and operators both fixate on acquiring new customers while ignoring the people who already love the destination. Repeat visitors become patrons of smaller, niche experiences and local businesses. For multi-day operators especially, a returning guest who books a deeper or different tour is more profitable than constantly feeding the top of the funnel.Identity beats branding. Know who you are and say no to the rest. 38:44 – 41:27 Jenn draws a hard line between brand (what you market) and identity (who you actually are and who you serve). When you lead with identity, you market less because the right people find you. That means turning down some customers and product ideas, which is terrifying for newer operators, but it prevents the bland, generic positioning that makes you invisible on platforms like Viator and GetYourGuide.The "book direct" movement matters for tour operators just as much as it does for short-term rentals and hotels. 42:58 – 44:28 Hotels lost roughly 80% of their distribution to OTAs. Tours and activities sit around 40% OTA-controlled, which means there is still time to build direct channels. DMOs missed the OTA boat the first time and are caught in a relevancy crisis. That creates a shared interest: both of you need to reclaim the guest relationship before the platforms own it entirely.Guerrilla, person-to-person marketing is the only thing worth betting on in this environment. 34:16 – 35:03 Replace coffee sleeves at a local shop for a week with a message like "next time mama's in town, try this." That costs almost nothing and puts your name in front of a local audience in a real, physical moment. Operators burning money on flashy ad campaigns and agencies are losing to the ones doing the manual work of building one relationship at a time.Bring tour operators, short-term rental hosts, and local businesses into the same room. The collaboration that comes out of it is worth more than any campaign. 30:35 – 32:17 A 12-person Tourpreneur meetup in Dallas turned competitors into collaborators planning joint tours before they left the room. Those rooms should include short-term rental hosts, restaurants, coffee shops. Nobody is organizing these cross-sector local gatherings yet. That is the opportunity.Rethink the "travel presentation at the library" model. Gather local people around something that is not your tour. 53:23 – 54:46 Jenn pitches a revival of the house-party model for travel: 10 to 15 people, food, conversation, then introduce the experience. For multi-day operators, this replaces the stale slide deck. Book clubs are surging. House gatherings are surging. The sale happens because you built trust in a personal setting, not because you ran a Facebook ad.Quirky, unpolished video cuts through. But virality does not equal business success. 36:32 – 37:38 Behind-the-scenes, day-in-the-life content is what is actually getting traction on social right now. The less templated and less AI-generated it feels, the better it performs. Use that attention as a hook, then shift to collaborative content and real relationship-building that converts. A weird 30-second clip of your tour prep is worth more than a polished banner ad.The inbound tourism situation in the US is worse than most operators realize, and pretending otherwise is a losing strategy. 48:28 – 50:43 Canadian airlines are pulling US routes for summer 2026. Sixteen countries now have travel advisories against

Cette semaine, j'ai eu l'honneur d'être accueilli par Jean-Pierre Trevisan, un hôtelier chevronné qui a fait ses armes dans des établissements emblématiques comme le Georges V, le Ritz et le Crillon. Aujourd'hui, il est à la tête du seul palace de la rive gauche de Paris, le Lutetia. Diplômé de l'école hôtelière de Strasbourg, il a gravi les échelons en passant par des postes clés dans des hôtels de renom à Paris. Son expérience au sein de groupes prestigieux comme Accor et Four Seasons lui a permis de développer une expertise unique en matière de gestion hôtelière. Depuis 2021, il dirige le Lutetia, où il a relevé le défi de repositionner l'hôtel en véritable palace après sa réouverture post-pandémie.

You're not overcompetitive. You're just competing in the wrong arenas. I asked my dog's groomer what he'd need to do to get an A+ instead of an A. The lady next to me thought I was crazy. She was wrong. I break down why being wired to win isn't a character flaw — it's a competitive advantage most people are too afraid to claim. Plus, the etymology of the word "compete" will completely reframe how you see your rivals, your industry, and the people chasing the same finish line as you. The real question isn't whether you're competitive. It's whether you're competing for the right things. Hit play. This one's for the winners. Who This Episode Is For If someone has ever told you that you're too competitive — this one's for you. Social Caption Everyone's competitive. Not everyone's honest enough to admit what they actually care about winning. Key Takeaways Being wired to win isn't overcompetitive — it's a sign you take your limited time seriously True winners don't just excel in one area; their integrity, values, and execution make them winners across all areas of life Everyone is competitive — just not about everything. Find your arenas and own them. The etymology of "compete" means striving together — your rivals make you better, not worse As you grow, the skill isn't wanting to win less — it's choosing your battles with more precision Questions for Reflection What areas of your life are you pretending not to care about winning — when deep down you know you do? Are you competing in battles that drain your energy without advancing your actual goals? Who are the competitors in your life that are making you sharper — and are you grateful for them? Action Steps List the three arenas where you are genuinely, unapologetically competitive. Own them — stop apologizing for wanting to win there. Audit the battles you're currently in. Identify one you need to exit because it's costing you energy without moving you forward. Identify one competitor — in business, fitness, or life — and genuinely root for them to get better. Iron sharpens iron. Featured Quote "Don't compete for everything — but the things you do compete in, give it your absolute all."

Jack sits down with Paul Calf (Salesforce Release Manager at Standard Life, and Gearset DevOps Leader for 2026) to talk through a decade-long Salesforce journey that took him from accidental admin to release manager. Paul gets candid about the failed audit that forced his team to get serious about governance, what it looked like to build a compliant release process from scratch, and why cherry-picking components in VS Code nearly broke him (and the team).The conversation goes beyond tooling. Paul opens up about the culture-first approach his team takes to collaboration, from daily standups to blameless post-mortems, and what happens when someone accidentally data loads the wrong file into prod. He also shares his take on evaluating DevOps tools, approval bottlenecks, and how his financial services org is treading carefully, but deliberately, into AI territory.About DevOps Diaries: Salesforce DevOps Advocate Jack McCurdy chats to members of the Salesforce community about their experience in the Salesforce ecosystem.

This week's episode comes from my recent conversation on Mike Crowson's Check-In's Pro podcast, and it was too good not to share here. We dive into what it actually means to be “set up for scale,” why so many coaches try to grow before their foundation is ready and the simple audit I mentally run when setting up strategy for a business owner. Whether you're trying to hit your first $10k or $100k month, this conversation breaks down the difference between growth that lasts and growth that creates chaos. We also talk about what scaling really looks like behind the scenes of a 7-figure business and the lessons we're seeing play out in the industry right now.

In Japan, "engagement" is a loanword (エンゲージメント), which is a neat metaphor: the sound exists, but the meaning can feel fuzzy at work. Yet global surveys still measure it, and Japan often lands near the bottom — Gallup's recent Japan spotlight reporting puts engaged employees at about 7%.  So how do you lift engagement in a culture that's cautious with self-scoring, allergic to over-promising, and hyper-sensitive to responsibility? You stop chasing a Western definition and start building the three drivers that actually move hearts and behaviour in Japanese teams: manager trust, senior leadership credibility, and organisational pride — with one emotional trigger that lights the fuse: feeling valued by your boss. What does "employee engagement" actually mean in Japan? In Japan, engagement shows up less as loud enthusiasm and more as quiet commitment, discretionary effort, and loyalty to the team. If you use a US-style definition ("I love my company and I'll shout it from the rooftops"), you'll undercount people who are genuinely doing the work and protecting the brand. This is why Japan can look "low engagement" on dashboards while still delivering operational excellence at firms like Toyota, Panasonic, and major banks — effort is often expressed through endurance, quality, and risk reduction rather than overt positivity. Post-pandemic (2020–2025), hybrid work also reduced informal connection, which matters disproportionately in relationship-heavy cultures. Do now: Define engagement behaviours in your context (e.g., proactive problem-solving, collaboration, customer ownership) and measure those, not just imported survey language. Why do Gallup-style engagement surveys often score Japan so low? Japan often scores low because translation and culture collide with how questions are interpreted and how people self-rate. Gallup's Japan-focused reporting highlights that engagement is extremely low by global comparison, and that disengagement is widespread.  Two common traps: Translation nuance: Questions like "Would you recommend this company to friends/family?" carry responsibility risk in Japan. If the friend hates the job (or the company hates the friend), the recommender feels accountable. Perfectionism penalty: Japanese respondents frequently avoid top-box scores. Luxury and service sectors have long observed that Japanese satisfaction ratings can be systematically harsher than other markets (the "Japan factor"). Do now: Audit survey translations with bilingual leaders, add Japan-relevant behavioural questions, and interpret trends (up/down) more than raw global ranking. How do you measure engagement without getting fooled by the numbers? Use a "triangulation" approach: one survey, a few operational signals, and regular manager check-ins. In multinationals, HQ loves a single engagement score — but Japan needs a dashboard that respects context. Practical measurement mix (2024–2026 reality check): Survey pulse: Keep it short; use Gallup Q12-style consistency, but validate Japanese phrasing. Operational indicators: regretted attrition, internal mobility, absenteeism, safety incidents, quality defects, customer complaints, and project cycle time. Manager "meaning" rhythm: monthly 1:1s, quarterly career conversations, and team retrospectives (especially important in hybrid setups). Compare apples-to-apples: Japan vs. Japan (trend), not Japan vs. Denmark (culture). Do now: Pick 5 metrics max, publish them quarterly, and make every manager accountable for one engagement input (e.g., 2 meaningful 1:1s per month). What are the three strongest drivers of engagement in Japanese teams? The biggest levers are (1) satisfaction with the immediate manager, (2) belief in senior leadership, and (3) pride in the organisation. These drivers are universal, but they hit harder in Japan because trust, clarity, and belonging are the social glue. Immediate manager: People don't quit companies, they quit bosses — and in Japan, the boss is also the cultural translator. Gallup research often points to managers as a major factor in team engagement variance.  Senior leadership credibility: If the "why" is vague, Japanese employees assume hidden risk. Clear direction reduces anxiety and boosts execution. Organisational pride: Internal rivalries (Sales vs Marketing vs IT) kill pride. Strong leaders unite teams against external competitors (Rakuten vs Amazon, incumbents vs startups like Mercari, etc.). Do now: Run a 30-day leadership reset: manager 1:1 cadence, CEO "why" messaging, and a pride campaign celebrating customer impact and team wins. What's the emotional trigger that flips people from "showing up" to "leaning in"? Feeling valued by your boss is the fastest emotional accelerator of engagement. People don't guess they're valued — they need to hear it clearly, consistently, and specifically. In Japan, "valued" lands best when it's concrete and modest: "Your analysis prevented a customer escalation." "Because you coached the new hire, the team's cycle time improved." "I trust you with this client because your prep is world-class." Tie value to meaning: how the work helps customers, protects colleagues, or strengthens reputation. This is where confidence, enthusiasm, and ownership start to appear — without forcing extroversion. Do now: Every manager: give 2 pieces of specific recognition per person per month, linked to business impact (customer, quality, speed, risk, revenue). What should leaders in multinationals do when HQ demands Japan "fix engagement"? Push back with data, reframe expectations, and localise the playbook — without looking defensive. Global leaders often see Japan at the bottom and assume leadership failure; the smarter move is to explain the measurement context andshow your improvement plan. A practical HQ message: "Japan's baseline is structurally lower due to survey interpretation and scoring norms." "We'll improve trend lines via manager capability, leadership clarity, and organisational pride." "We'll report both engagement and behavioural indicators quarterly." Gallup's Japan spotlight materials reinforce that Japan's disengagement is economically meaningful — which gives you permission to act decisively.  Do now: Agree with HQ on a 12-month target focused on movement (e.g., +2–4 points) and manager behaviours, not a magical leap to US levels. Final wrap If you want engagement to rise in Japan, stop arguing about the katakana and start building the conditions where people feel safe, valued, and proud. Fix the immediate manager experience, make senior leadership's "why" painfully clear, and create pride by uniting teams against external competitors. The best part: these levers cost zero yen — but they do require leadership discipline. Optional FAQs Is there a Japanese word for "engagement" at work? Not a perfect one — that's why many firms keep エンゲージメント and define it behaviourally. Agree on what engagement looks like day-to-day, then measure those actions. Should Japan use the same engagement questions as the US? Not without localisation. Translate for meaning (not words), test with Japanese employees, and adjust "recommend to friends/family" style items carefully. What's the single fastest engagement improvement tactic? Manager behaviour. Increase high-quality 1:1s and specific recognition; managers are a major lever in engagement differences.  Why do Japanese teams avoid giving 10/10 scores? Perfectionism and modesty norms. Use trend-based targets and multiple indicators rather than chasing top-box scores.

Are you truly productive, or are you just... "busy"? In this episode of Pursue Your Passion, we're pulling back the curtain on the "Busy Trap"—the socially acceptable excuse we use to keep our biggest dreams on the back burner. We often treat our passions like a luxury we'll get to "someday" when things finally settle down. But the truth is, life doesn't settle down; it expands. Today, [Your Name] dives deep into the psychology of why we fill our schedules with "good" obligations that prevent us from reaching "great" milestones. In this episode, you'll learn: The Back Burner Effect: Why neglecting your passion isn't just a time issue—it's an identity crisis. The "Good" vs. "Great" Filter: How to identify the tasks that are stealing your creative energy. The Art of the "No": Tactical ways to set boundaries without the guilt. The Passion Pivot: A 3-step framework (The Audit, The Non-Negotiable Hour, and The Big Three) to reclaim your time starting today. It's time to stop being a "doer of chores" and start being a "creator of dreams." If you've felt like your spark has been dimming under the weight of a crowded calendar, this episode is your permission slip to clear the deck and put yourself first.

Okay guys, we need to talk about the sneaky fears.The ones you dress up as strategy. The ones that feel responsible and safe but are actually just keeping your business tiny.In this episode, I'm getting raw about the fears I've been holding onto - the kind that sound tactical but are actually emotional.I had to check myself hard on this, and I'm walking you through what happened when I finally looked at the actual data instead of the drama.We're talking about auditing your numbers, choosing above-average activity, and the question that changed everything: where are you redesigning your entire business strategy to protect your feelings?If you've been optimizing for emotional comfort instead of growth, this one's gonna sting in the best way.

In this episode of Building the Billion Dollar Business, Ray Sclafani delivers a direct message to advisory firms. Market appreciation is not the same as real growth. When AUM climbs because of a bull market, it may boost revenue, but it does not automatically build enterprise value.Ray challenges firms to separate capital market lift from true organic growth. Real growth comes from net new relationships, expanded wallet share, stronger engagement, and intentional investments in business development and marketing.He outlines the practical shifts the best firms make, including tracking net new assets accurately, funding growth strategically, upgrading marketing from SEO to AEO, and setting ambitious targets that are not dependent on market momentum.The message is clear: growth is not accidental. It is earned through deliberate choices, disciplined execution, and a mindset that refuses to confuse momentum with mastery.Key Takeaways70% of RIA channel growth over the past decade has come from capital markets.Firms must clearly distinguish net new assets from capital appreciation.Tracking client acquisition, retention, wallet share, and lifetime value is critical.Advisors must know their CAC (client acquisition cost) and LTV (lifetime value).Firms that build organic growth muscles win new clients even when markets stall.Questions Financial Advisors Often AskQ: What is the difference between market-driven growth and real organic growth for RIAs? A: Market-driven growth occurs when portfolios expand due to a bull run and AUM increases because of capital appreciation. Real organic growth is the kind that builds enterprise value by adding new ideal clients, increasing wallet share from existing clients, creating deeper engagement, and expanding capacity to serve more clients.Q: How can advisory firms accurately measure organic growth? A: Firms should separate net new assets from capital appreciation, monitor actual client acquisition and retention, track wallet share and client lifetime value, and analyze numbers as if the market did not change.Q: What reports should advisory firms review to track real growth? A: Firms should be able to track net new assets from existing clients, new assets from new clients, and opportunity reports showing client meetings and new opportunities created. They should generate reports that clearly distinguish net new assets from capital appreciation.Q: What should financial advisors do immediately to improve organic growth? A: Strip market gains from reports and analyze numbers without market lift. Develop a focused business development strategy with defined roles and funding. Audit marketing strategy, including SEO to AEO and AI usage. Define an ambitious growth target tied to new relationships and revenue streams.Q: What growth rate should firms target for real organic expansion? A: Firms serious about organic growth should pursue mid to high teens year-over-year growth, minus capital markets and inorganic growth.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeTo join one of the largest digital communities of financial advisors, visit exchange.clientwise.com.

Most contractors don't ignore safety because they don't care. They ignore it because they're overloaded… and OSHA paperwork feels endless.

Main Question This Episode Answers: Are you using AI in a way that builds trust for your brand, or are you slowly eroding it through inconsistency and siloed use? Episode Summary- AI is everywhere. But simply using AI tools does not guarantee growth. In fact, without structure, AI can fragment your messaging, dilute your tone, and weaken trust. In this episode, Donna Peterson shares what was happening inside World Innovators when team members were using AI independently, without alignment. Tone drift, duplicated efforts, and disconnected messaging began to surface. She explains the three structural changes they implemented to strengthen alignment, protect brand integrity, and build sustainable trust in long sales cycle environments: Creating a centralized AI Library Developing practical AI Guides for tools Holding structured monthly AI alignment meetings This episode is especially relevant for presidents, CEOs, marketing leaders, and sales leaders responsible for guiding teams through AI adoption while protecting brand consistency. Key Topics Covered: The hidden risk of siloed AI use inside organizations Why tone consistency is critical in long sales cycles How fragmented AI use weakens compounding learning The structure of a centralized AI Library What to include in brand guardrails and tone sheets Why prompt-sharing eliminates duplication The importance of tool discipline versus tool overload Why leaders must understand AI tools at a strategic level How alignment creates confidence and trust at scale AI does not build trust. Alignment builds trust. Growth comes from trust. Trust comes from consistency. Consistency comes from leadership structure. If alignment is weak: Silos form Tone drifts Confusion spreads If alignment is strong: Messaging compounds Confidence increases Mission scales Action Steps: Schedule one structured AI alignment meeting per month. Audit your current AI tools and ensure you are using them to full capacity before adding new ones. Create a centralized AI Library with brand guardrails, tone sheets, templates, and strong prompts. Why This Matters: In long B2B sales cycles, every piece of communication builds on the previous one. If tone and messaging are inconsistent, trust weakens.

Are you working hard but still not seeing the revenue results you want?Most founders aren't struggling because of a lack of effort, they're struggling because they're focused on the wrong things.In this episode, Rebecca walks you through her Six-Step Focus Framework: a practical system she's implemented in her own business to audit exactly where your time is going and redirect it toward activities that actually generate revenue. Not leads. Not engagement. Revenue.You'll learn how to separate the tasks that produce results from the ones quietly draining your time, why reactivating proven strategies will always beat chasing shiny new ones, and how to mine your existing database for money you're already leaving on the table. Rebecca also breaks down how to identify the single bottleneck holding back your growth — and how to finally close the gap between deciding to do something and actually doing it.This is a 90-day framework you can start implementing today.BONUS - Download the FREE $1M Focus Audit Here.Follow Rebecca on Instagram here for deeper conversations on leadership, scale & business.

In this conversation, compliance is reframed as a trust accelerator that helps teams move faster, make better decisions, and speak up without fear. From whistleblowing to innovation, from guardrails to growth, this episode reveals the way leaders listen may matter more than the rules they write.   Experience our episodes in a whole new way—watch every video version on our YouTube channel.

Everything. This episode explores the spiritual principle of inventory.

Something in your business is done this week. Not failing - done. Outgrown. And you probably already know what it is. Tuesday's Lunar Eclipse in Virgo is the biggest transit of the month - a South Node eclipse that releases what's pretending to work in your systems, your service, and your daily operations. But the eclipse is only one day. The rest of the week is about what happens after. In this week's CEO Operating Brief, I'm walking you through the full arc (day by day) from Monday's audit through Tuesday's release, Thursday's first breath of expansion, Friday's visibility shift, Saturday's one flash of clarity in the middle of Mercury Retrograde fog, and Sunday's reality check. This week's day-by-day: → Monday - Mars enters Pisces. Your action style shifts. Audit what you're maintaining out of habit before the eclipse arrives → Tuesday - Lunar Eclipse in Virgo. Name what's complete. Decide. Put it down → Wednesday - Let it settle. Notice what's still solid. Leave space for surprise → Thursday - Sun trine Jupiter. The first exhale post-eclipse. Ask what you'd build for joy, not proof → Friday - Venus enters Aries. Your visibility and attraction style just changed gears. Tighten your CTA → Saturday - Sun conjunct Mercury Rx (the cazimi). One flash of total clarity mid-retrograde. Capture everything → Sunday - Venus conjunct Saturn. Reality check. Test the download against what's actually sustainable Card pull: 9 of Pentacles - stand in your garden. What's still here after you let go is enough. If you haven't listened to last week's Mercury Retrograde deep dive, go back and listen first. That episode showed you the leak. This week's eclipse is sealing it.

“Audio is non-negotiable. If it's hard to listen to, people won't stay.”I did a full podcast audit for Christopher Welsh, the host of a brand new philosophy podcast. I love doing audit episodes because they reveal things that most podcasters simply cannot hear themselves.What stood out to me in this episode was the ambition. There was real creativity, strong storytelling, and a clear desire to make something different. But it was also a perfect example of why the fundamentals matter more than creativity at the start.We talked about audio issues that can instantly turn listeners away, why leaving your niche too early can confuse your audience, and how branding, structure, and consistency all shape the listening experience. This was one of those episodes where the lessons apply to almost every podcaster, especially if you are just getting started.Key Talking PointsWhy audio quality is still the fastest way to lose a listenerHow creating in a vacuum makes it hard to hear your own mistakesThe risk of stepping outside your niche too earlyWhy inconsistent artwork and metadata hurt your podcast more than you thinkHow simple structure builds trust with new listenersChapters & Timestamps00:00 – The importance of first impressions in podcasting04:15 – Why podcast audits reveal what you cannot hear yourself08:40 – Audio mistakes that push listeners away15:10 – Niche clarity and why episode three is too early to experiment22:30 – Artwork, titles, and metadata consistency30:05 – Structure, trust, and aiming for 1% better every episodeSend a textEmail me (niall@sevenmillionbikes.com) or contact me on Seven Million Bikes Podcasts Facebook or Instagram to book your free Podcast Audit!Thanks to James Mastroianni from The Wrong Side Of Hollywood for the endorsement!

Dominic Forth is the CEO of Thought Leaders America, where he helps founders, operators, and investors earn trust and raise capital through credible media visibility. With a background training at the BBC and working across major U.S. TV markets including Kansas City, Tampa, San Francisco, Tulsa, and Denver, Dominic brings more than two decades of media and research experience to the entrepreneurs he serves.      Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Leverage credible media placements to build trust that compounds across AI search, Google, and investor due diligence  Clarify your narrative by defining who you are, what you do, and how you relate to your target audience  Lead with authenticity. Audiences quickly disconnect when messaging feels forced or over-rehearsed  Recognize that people just one or two steps ahead can offer more relatable value than distant "experts"  Focus on ROI-driven visibility, not vanity PR. Media should support capital raising, credibility, and measurable business growth      Topics Why Credible Media Matters More in the AI Era How AI increasingly pulls from trusted media sources instead of traditional search rankings  Why appearing on outlets like ABC, CBS, or Fox strengthens long-term digital authority  The Three Pillars of a Powerful Personal Brand Who you are (your authentic personal story)  What you do (your expertise and value proposition)  How you understand your audience's journey (investors, clients, stakeholders)  Why You Don't Need a Dramatic Backstory Shifting from "near-death experience" narratives to audience-centric storytelling  Emotional engagement through authenticity, preparation, and relatability  Overcoming Imposter Syndrome in Thought Leadership Why those one or two steps ahead often deliver the most actionable insight  How smaller media reps build confidence before major national appearances  Turning PR Into Measurable ROI Commissioning research to create newsworthy stories  Using media placements as credibility assets for investor conversations  Structuring PR efforts around business outcomes, not just visibility
