Scaling Up Nation, I cannot wait to introduce you to Paul Edwards. We met in our Mastermind group and have learned a great deal from one another. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, “When you meet new people, you open the door to new ideas and better ways of doing things that you never would have never thought of if you stayed alone in a silo.” Paul is a first-generation Spanish-speaking immigrant to the US with African heritage and Middle East combat experience. Paul's lived in five different countries, speaks two languages, and holds three passports. Paul wears many hats – he is CEO of a ghostwriting and content creation agency, bestselling author, podcast host, and one of the best people I know at networking. And if that wasn't enough, he is a husband, father, mentor, amateur theologian, men's physique athlete, voice mimic, and recovering insurance salesman.  Yes, Renaissance Man, Paul Edwards does a lot of things really well, but in today's episode, he is going to speak into the power of great communication, generous networking, and authentic relationships. When Paul isn't writing content for clients, you're most likely to find him building relationships and creating opportunities for his network. Bottom line: Paul does two things well: words and people. Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client.   -Trace    Timestamps:  James' Challenge: Test for microbiological activity in your cooling systems.

On May 11, 2018, on Episode 38 Mark C. Winters the author of “Rocket Fuel ” was a guest on the show and he introduced the Scaling Up Nation to Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) in a blitz 100 level introductory course. Today I am pleased to have Mark C. Winters back on the podcast to walk us through his 200 level EOS course, which is all about communication.   If you are a new listener, or never had the chance to listen to Episode 38, please check it out today. It will immediately change your business, for the better.    In today's episode, Mark C. Winters teaches us how the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) can specifically help businesses of 10-250 people climb a growth path to success, start their leadership teams with clear goals in mind, and confidently lay out which employee is going to do what to accomplish the company goals.    Additionally, Mark lays out the framework on how Visionaries (those who come up with the ideas) Integrators (those who make visions happen) can communicate better to take their companies to the next level. When Visionaries and Integrators have a great partnership, there is nothing they cannot do.  Bottom line: Mark C. Winters gave my company the tools, confidence, and energy we needed to accomplish more than I could have ever envisioned before we connected.    Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client.     -Trace     Timestamps:   James' Challenge: “Test free chlorine in a cooling tower immediately and again an hour later from the same open sample.” [2:55]  Reintroducing EOS expert, and author of “Rocket Fuel ”, Mark C.

Tim Ferriss (@TimFerriss) introduced me to the 21-day no-complaints challenge and I am going to take it. And I encourage you to try it as well. Complaints are a form of negativity that drag you down rather than fix anything. In this episode I go over my thoughts heading into the challenge, since I don't think it'll be a piece of cake. I overview how little thoughts we have add up to a lot. But I'm up for the challenge and I hope you are too! Let's keep hope alive and spread goodness with this. Comment down below with any questions or thoughts that you may have, or most importantly—your experience doing this challenge. Hit me up on social media @PhilSvitek if it's easier. I'd love to hear from you. And for more free resources from your 360 creative coach, check out my website at http://philsvitek.com.

What is the difference between a rock star email marketer and everyone else? It is not a huge staff or abundant resources (those help) - it is the ability to test and tweak to improve their marketing for their audience. In this episode, we tackle test and tweaking to help you serve your audience better and make more sales.

So they say patience is a virtue but what does that mean? It is defined as behavior showing high moral standards is the definition but why is that important to our day-to-day. Of course, having high moral standards is important but it doesn’t tell us the value of patience.  Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world. Harriet Tubman Patience is not simply the ability to wait - it's how we behave while we're waiting. Joyce Meyer Each life is made up of mistakes and learning, waiting and growing, practicing patience and being persistent. Billy Graham Lots of good advice there but it doesn’t make the process any easier. Patience and be painful and sometimes what trumps success. Let’s look at it from a few didn’t perspectives to see if I can shine some new light on some strategies.  Patience requires restraint. In a world that moves by at the speed of light without much thought to the overall picture or quality of life...patience requires us to slow down and be mindful.   When we feel like we have all the answers and with a little more hard work we can make it happen and happen faster, patience makes us wait. Relax and wait. Where timing and growth meet.  When we are frustrated because nothing is turning out the way we expected and we just can’t seem to catch a break, patience reminds us that life is still moving and things are still evolving and we aren’t finished yet.  Another perspective says: "Patience: the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, difficulty, or annoyance without getting angry or upset."  Notice how impatience arises when we’re not getting our way—specifically, when people or our environment aren’t conforming to our expectations, even in circumstances over that we have no control (for example, the flow of traffic or the length of a line). Our expectations are often out of synch with reality.  Recognize the stressful feeling, and FREEZE FRAME it. Take a time out. Make a sincere effort to shift your focus away from the racing mind or disturbed emotions to the area around your heart. You can pretend that you are breathing thru your heart to help focus energy in this area. Keep your focus there for ten seconds or more. Recall a positive, fun feeling or time you’ve had in life and attempt to re-experience it. Now use your intuition, common sense and sincerity-- ask your heart, what would be a more efficient response to the situation, one that will minimize future stress? Listen to what your heart says in answer to your question. It's an effective way to put your reactive mind and emotions in check and an in-house source of common sense solutions. These are just ideas and strategies to try and isn’t that just it…..not sure anyone is born with patience - you lose your cool, your force things to happen, you fall on your face, things don’t work out the way you want, then hopefully….you regroup and try something new. …..is that where you are? By cultivating a practice of patience, you’re able to let go of things outside your control and live with less stress, anxiety, and frustration. When you are patient you are still and when you are still you have a chance to listen, and when you listen the universe speaks. Challenge: Test your patience and wait - wait before anger, wait before sadness, wait before giving up. Practice patience as you listen to and for direction. Show patience with those you meet - listen, understand, encourage. There is power in patience.  I know YOU can do it!

Matthew 13:3-9 Then he told them many things in parables saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But then the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop – a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. Whoever has ears, let them hear.” Some seed gets snatched.What distractions are snatching the seed from your life? Some seed gets scorched.In what is your life rooted?Some seed gets strangled.Change your mind and change your life.Matthew 13: 24-28 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. The owner's servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from? An enemy did this,' he replied. Some seed gets sabotaged.The enemy can't take your destiny but he can cause you not to recognize it.Challenge: Test your soil.

Background: Our aim was to examine whether measurement of the saliva mast cell tryptase (MCT) concentrations before and after a mucosal challenge test with the offending food would be helpful in diagnosing food allergy. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 44 food challenge tests performed in 38 patients between 2006 and 2009. Patients with a suspected history of food allergy chewed the food until they developed symptoms or until the amount of time known from the patients' history to usually be required for the provocation of symptoms had passed. In 5 patients, saliva samples for the measurement of MCT were collected at minutes 0, 1, 4, 8, 11, and 16 after the first onset of symptoms. The remainder of the patients only had samples taken before chewing and 4 min after the end of the test period. Results: During repeated measurements, MCT peaked about 4 min after the onset of symptoms (p = 0.028). During 33 of the 44 tests (75.0%), we observed oral symptoms during testing; after 25 of the 33 (75.8%) tests evoking symptoms, the saliva MCT concentration increased. The MCT increase was negative in all other tests where no oral symptoms could be provoked. Conclusions: The measurement of saliva MCT 4 min after the onset of symptoms may be helpful to diagnose food allergy. Because of numerous confounding variables, however, a negative saliva MCT increase does not exclude food allergy. Copyright (C) 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel

B. cereus zählt zu den wichtigsten Verursachern von Qualitätsminderung und Verderb bei Lebensmitteln. Daneben wächst die Bedeutung Toxin-bildender B. cereus Stämme als Auslöser Lebensmittel-bedingter Erkrankungen, die zwei Formen einer gastrointestentinalen Erkrankung hervorrufen können: das diarrhoeische Syndrom, welches durch verschiedene Enterotoxinkomplexe (HBL, Nhe) induziert wird, und das emetische Syndrom, welches durch ein Dodekadepsipetid (Cereulid) ausgelöst wird. In komplexen Lebensmitteln werden vielfach Gewürze als Vektor für B. cereus - Kontaminationen angesehen. Jedoch sind kaum Studien über Gewürze als mögliche Eintragsquelle für B. cereus in Lebensmittel publiziert. Auch liegen nur wenig aktuelle Daten aus dem europäischen Raum über die tatsächliche Belastung von Gewürzen mit diesem Erreger vor. Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, das Vorkommen und die Toxizität von B. cereus in Gewürzen analysieren, um eine aktuelle Übersicht über die Kontamination mit diesem Erreger für eine Bewertung der mikrobiologischen Sicherheit von Gewürzen zu gewinnen. Hierfür wurden insgesamt 60 Gewürzproben zwölf verschiedener Gewürzsorten untersucht. Zunächst wurde mittels kultureller Verfahren die aerobe mesophile Gesamtkeimzahl sowie die Belastung mit Enterobacteriaceae und präsumtiven B. cereus bestimmt. Um auch kleinste Mengen des Erregers sicher nachweisen zu können, wurde zudem ein Real-Time PCR Assay als Alternative zur zeitaufwendigen und diagnostisch ungenauen konventionellen MPN- Methode erarbeitet. Im weiteren Verlauf der Arbeit wurden 151 präsumtive Kolonien, die aus den untersuchten Gewürzproben (n=60) isoliert wurden, mittels biochemischer und molekularbiologischer Analyse als B. cereus bestätigt. Anschließend wurde die Toxigenität und Toxizität der Isolate mittels PCR, immunchemischer Nachweisverfahren (ELISA, RPLA) sowie im Zellkulturtest charakterisiert. Darüberhinaus wurde im Challenge-Test mit marinierten Fleischerzeugnissen untersucht, inwieweit eine Kontamination von Lebensmitteln mit B. cereus tatsächlich aus der Verwendung kontaminierter Gewürze resultiert. Nach mikrobiologischer Analyse der Gewürzprodukte (n=60), waren nahezu alle der Proben als mikrobiologisch unbedenklich einzustufen. Kein Produkt hat den von der DGHM und der Europäischen Kommission empfohlenen Richtwert für B. cereus in Gewürzen von 103 KbE/g überschritten. Mit dem Real-Time PCR-Assay wurde zudem eine zuverlässige Alternative zum konventionellen MPN - Verfahren erarbeitet, der es ermöglichte auch kleinste B. cereus Mengen nach selektiver Anreicherung in den Gewürzproben zu identifizieren. Dies ist insbesondere im Hinblick auf das gesundheitsgefährdende Potential pathogener B. cereus von Bedeutung. So wurden 81% der Isolate (n=151), die aus den Gewürzen gewonnen wurden als diarrhöische und/oder emetische Toxinbildner identifiziert. Zudem wurde gezeigt, dass eine B. cereus Kontamination von Lebensmitteln durchaus aus der Verwendung damit hergestellter, belasteter Gewürze resultieren kann. Jedoch ist das Risiko für den Verbraucher hinsichtlich einer Lebensmittelvergiftung durch kontaminierte Gewürze als gering einzustufen. Zwar wurde B. cereus in 70 % der insgesamt 60 untersuchten Proben detektiert, allerdings in Keimzahlen, die nach derzeitigem Stand der Wissenschaft keine Lebensmittelvergiftung auslösen können. Dennoch ist das Gesundheitsrisiko, das von toxinbildenden B. cereus ausgeht nicht zu unterschätzen, da sie als Sporenbildner Erhitzungsprozesse von Lebensmitteln überleben, wieder auskeimen und sich vermehren können. Das Vorkommen von B. cereus in Gewürzen ist somit unter den Gesichtspunkten eines vorbeugenden Verbraucherschutzes und der Qualitätssicherung zu betrachten, nicht zuletzt da es auch angesichts eines stetig wachsenden Welthandels im Zuge der Globalisierung immer dringlicher wird eine mikrobiologisch unbedenkliche Ware zu gewährleisten. Letztendlich sind weitere Untersuchungen mit größeren Probenzahlen für eine besserere Risikoabschätzung unumgänglich. Mit dem Real-Time PCR Assay steht hierfür eine schnelle und zuverlässige Methode zur Verfügung, die einen Erregernachweis direkt aus Gewürzproben erlaubt.
