Man, when I see my grown children eat now, it surprises me they ever needed help! But they did. And, of course, they're doing great now all by themselves. But there was a time when they had to be fed. And then I watched that with my grandchildren. See, sometimes - especially the very little ones - they need help, especially when they have this big piece of meat or chicken placed in front of them. If you're little and you can barely see over the top of the table, a piece of meat on your plate looks like this pretty daunting challenge! You can imagine as you sit there you might be going, "How do I tackle that?" So, Dads come or Moms come and cut that meat into little pieces that the little guy can handle. That's how you tackle it. Well, I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Parenting in Bite-Sized Chunks." Now, our word for today from the Word of God comes from Psalm 118:24. It's a familiar verse, probably one you've sung or maybe memorized. But let's apply it to life's great challenge called parenting. "This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it." I have repeated here that scriptural impression that life is meant to be handled in days. It comes up over and over again, not just here. David said, "This is the day...I'm going to handle life as days." But all through the Bible it talks about these 24-hour bite-sized chunks that we're supposed to do. It talks about strength that comes as your days come; picking up your cross daily, getting mercies that are new every morning. The Bible says "our inward man is renewed day by day," and then the Psalmist comes along and says, "I've got this day the Lord made." Not this year, not this month, not this life - I've got this day. Now, that's really helpful when it comes to the challenge of parenting. Man, you look at all that needs to be done in your child's life. They need to know that they're loved by you. You say, "Oh, there's so much to learn about discipline. They've got weaknesses I really need to work on! They've got strengths they don't believe they have, and I really need to build them up. And they have so much to learn about the Lord. There's so much to learn about life, and I have so much to get done in their life." And you look at all you need to accomplish in their lives and you're overwhelmed; you're paralyzed like a little child looking at this big piece of meat on his plate. But you've got to cut it into bite-sized chunks called days. Your mission is simply to have a good day with your child. Don't try to put a whole life, or even a whole month together. Have one good day. One day where you show your child demonstrated affection, where you debrief each other's day; one good day where you just have some laughs with each other. One day where you deal with one piece of an issue in your life or their life. One day when you give them a specific compliment. One day where you touch the Lord together and talk to Him together about something. And then let the Lord stitch those days together into a tapestry that makes a life. See, we tend to be paralyzed by guilt over the past or anxiety over the future. Our fears. Why not trust the Lord to cover both of those, and you have a good day today. That's how you build a better future. So, don't be overwhelmed by that whole piece of things you need to do as a parent. Just take it one bite at a time.
Wie funktioniert das, wenn wir täglich teils massiven, teils subtilen Versuchen ausgesetzt sind, unsere Entscheidungen zu beeinflussen? Welche kognitiven und emotionalen Muster spielen hier? Wie kann man das in Kommunikationsverläufen und deren Wirkungen bei sich selbst aufmerksamer beobachten? Was sind „Chunks“ und „Entscheidungsbäume“? – Michel Reimon geht in seinem Buch Starke Signale dem Phänomen wirkungsvoller systemischer Kommunikation auf den Grund. Dem Ansatz des Radikalen Konstruktivismus kommt dabei eine bedeutende Rolle zu ... Bei der Leipziger Buchmesse 2025 haben wir mit dem Autor darüber gesprochen. _____________ Folgen Sie auch den anderen Podcasts von Carl-Auer: autobahnuniversität www.carl-auer.de/magazin/autobahnuniversitat Blackout, Bauchweh und kein` Bock www.carl-auer.de/magazin/blackout…eh-und-kein-bock Cybernetics of Cybernetics www.carl-auer.de/magazin/cybernet…s-of-cybernetics Genau Geschaut https://www.carl-auer.de/magazin/genau-geschaut Frauen führen besser www.carl-auer.de/magazin/frauen-fuhren-besser Formen (reloaded) Podcast www.carl-auer.de/magazin/formen-reloaded-podcast Heidelberger Systemische Interviews www.carl-auer.de/magazin/heidelbe…ische-interviews Zum Wachstum inspirieren www.carl-auer.de/magazin/zum-wachstum-inspirieren Zusammen entscheiden www.carl-auer.de/magazin/treffpunkt-entscheiden

J. Elvis Weinstein was a head writer on many shows so he knows a good joke while Jay just jokes often from character. On this show we sort out the differences. Also J. talks about his funny family. Hobbies like ice cream, bad jokes, bubble gum jokes, fortune cookies, losing money on documentaries, saving your marriage by wasting less money than your wife thinks, Mystery Science Theater, old credits, and how jokes ruin dramas, hack jokes, improvisations, the perfect punchline, and hating Seinfeld. Bio: J. Elvis Weinstein began his stand-up comedy career at age 15 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. At 17, he was one of the founding writer/performers of "Mystery Science Theater 3000” (MST3K) as the original voice/puppeteer of robots Tom Servo and Gypsy, and the role of Dr. Lawrence Erhardt.Since moving to Los Angeles, he has worked as a writer/producer on a wide range of network TV comedy, including "Freaks and Geeks", "Malcolm and Eddie", "Dead Last", and "My Guide to Becoming a Rock Star.” He was also the Head Writer on "America's Funniest Home Videos" and "Later with Greg Kinnear". In 2008 he reunited with his MST3K co-stars to form “Cinematic Titanic” which toured U.S. Theaters as a live show and produced 12 DVDs, now available as a box set.J. Elvis has written and directed 3 films - 2 feature documentaries (“I Need You To Kill” & “Michael Des Barres: Who Do You Want Me To Be?”) and a comedy short (“The Mediocre Samaritan”). As a performer, he continues to perform as a stand-up (releasing the album “Chunks” in 2019), co-hosts the podcast “Thought Spiral” with comedian Andy Kindler, and recently co-starred in the feature film “The Fiddling Horse” (2020).

In this candid conversation, we peel back the layers of politics often entangled in DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) to expose its pure business value—free from polarization and personal frustration. We start by examining how anger and political grandstanding can obscure DEI's real purpose: driving measurable impact and innovation. Then, we zero in on one core business objective—improving customer satisfaction, accelerating product development, or ensuring team retention—and demonstrate how effective DEI strategies can directly support that goal. By focusing on a single, critical metric, we cut through the noise and set a clear, actionable plan, showing that when DEI is aligned with business essentials, everyone wins.

As the party watches the guards march from the fortress below, they discuss their plans for infiltration. Faerlin offers a few options: directly up the treacherous path to the front door, through the servant's entrance, or a secret passageway around the back. All options have their benefits and risks, but none seem the obvious best choice. Deciding it would be best to consider their options while they make their way down, the group attempts to avoid the guards' gaze. However, Jimothy halts suddenly and causes Eight to lose their footing. Chunks of rock tumble down the side of the cliff, soon followed by the sound of a trumpet. Eight quickly reacts and summons an illusory mountain goat in the hope of disguising the true source of the rockfall.They notice that the doors of the fortress open again, revealing a second contingent of guards heading down the path. Feeling they've avoided being spotted for now, they quicken their pace. Deciding to split up, Faerlin provides a rough sketch of the interior to Rou and Eight, who will be heading the back way near the guards' barracks while Faerlin and Trix head through the front. The two groups make their way in, albeit with mixed results.
