Podcasts about Command

What you're about to experience goes far beyond traditional affirmations—these are precision tools designed to create immediate shifts in your energetic field and physical reality. Traditional affirmations often operate on a superficial level, merely suggesting positive thoughts to your conscious mind. But quantum command affirmations work differently—they function as direct instructions to the quantum field that surrounds and permeates your entire being. Quantum command affirmations utilize specific linguistic structures that collapse probability waves in the quantum field. These affirmations incorporate precise power words that carry specific vibrational frequencies and operate from non-locality, the understanding that time is not linear but simultaneous. The connection between our thoughts, words, and physical health is not merely metaphysical speculation—it's supported by growing scientific evidence. When we speak healing affirmations, we activate multiple pathways of transformation within our bodies. At the most fundamental level, affirmations shift our nervous system from stress response to healing mode. Research has shown that positive, empowering statements can lower cortisol levels and increase production of healing neurotransmitters and hormones. This biochemical shift creates an internal environment where regeneration can occur naturally. What makes quantum command affirmations uniquely powerful for healing is their ability to bypass the conscious mind's resistance. Our bodies are constantly listening to our words. Each cell contains receptors that respond to the energetic frequencies we generate through our thoughts and speech. When we pronounce power words like "REGENERATE" or "HARMONIZE" with focused intention, we're literally transmitting healing frequencies to our cellular structure. The practice of speaking these affirmations creates new neural pathways in the brain, reinforcing healing patterns that eventually become automatic. Many people report experiencing immediate sensations during quantum command affirmations—warmth, tingling, pulsing energy—physical evidence that healing processes are being activated.

Jesus' Command to Love: The Hardest and Holiest Calling Jesus gives us His commandment to “love one another,” . . . . . . emphasizing that true love, as exemplified by Jesus, is the most difficult yet most essential commandment. Rather than focusing on religious rituals like daily prayer or tithing, Jesus calls for radical, sacrificial love modeled after his own. The Homily underscores that love is only possible through the Holy Spirit and involves humility, equality, and self-giving. The Early Church It also recounts the early Church's struggle with integrating Gentile believers, particularly at the Council of Jerusalem, where leaders chose not to impose the full burden of Jewish law on Gentile converts . . . except out of love and respect for others' consciences. The Church's journey through subsequent theological disputes (e.g., Jesus' divinity and nature) illustrates that doctrinal clarity often takes centuries, but division still persists today between “conservatives” and “progressives.” The Homily calls for unity in the Church through love empowered by the Holy Spirit, rather than through labels or legalism Listen to this Meditation Media.

As Marines advanced across Saipan, the naval battle for the Marianas reached a critical turning point. On June 19, despite dominating enemy aircraft in the "Great Marianas Turkey Shoot," American ships faced Japanese coastal artillery and nighttime air raids. Meanwhile, Admiral Spruance launched a daring, long-range strike against retreating Japanese carriers, dealing devastating blows but suffering heavy aircraft losses. On Saipan itself, fierce ground fighting continued, with Marines battling stubborn Japanese defenses across rugged terrain, while rising tension between Marine and Army commanders foreshadowed controversial command decisions ahead. ************* Visit HistoryoftheMarineCorps.com to subscribe to our newsletter, explore episode notes and images, and see our references.

Sometimes insubordination within the command chain actually works. Want an example? Take the infamous 1973 Yom Kippur War, when the divisional commander of a reserve formation (Ariel Sharon) circumvented not just his superiors but also the IDF chief in order to get approval for his plan. Gross insubordination….but it worked. History favours Sharon's own narrative but the command chain had a different perspective. Personalities matter in C2: sometimes the clash of commanders can be detrimental to the campaign. Sometimes insubordination is necessary, but you won't end up as Prime Minister every time. Nate Jennings explains the context of the fight, the decisions, and the background to the big decisions.

What if everything you've been taught about leadership is actually holding your team back? Join me as I sit down with Mike Abrashoff, former Navy commander and bestselling author of "It's Your Ship," who shattered traditional leadership paradigms by asking one simple question: "What do you think?" When Mike took command of USS Benfold, it was near the bottom of Navy performance metrics with an abysmal 8% retention rate. Through his revolutionary leadership approach of empowering his crew rather than controlling them, he transformed it into the best ship in the Navy—and his insights are even more crucial for today's executives than they were two decades ago.In this episode, you will be able to:Learn how to create a culture of ownership where team members step up and drive performance without micromanagementDiscover how to break free from command-and-control leadership that drives away top talent in today's workplaceUncover the counterintuitive strategy that allowed Mike to reduce his workload by 70% while dramatically improving performanceMike's profound wisdom about "excellence without arrogance" offers exactly what today's leaders need—connect with me on LinkedIn or subscribe to my Power Presence Academy newsletter for more insights on leading with less ego and more soul.Grab all the links and resources mentioned in this episode HERE.More About Mike Abrashoff Mike Abrashoff is at the center of one of the most remarkable modern day stories of organizational transformation.  At 36, he was selected to be Commander of USS Benfold and was the most junior commanding officer in the Pacific fleet.   The challenges of this underachieving destroyer were staggering, with low morale and the highest turnover rate in the Navy.  Few thought the ship could improve. Yet 12 months later it was ranked #1 in performance -- using the same crew.  How did Mike do it?  By replacing command and control leadership with commitment and cohesion. The lesson was clear:  Leadership matters and culture is everything. Since leaving the Navy, Mike has worked with over 1200 organizations instilling leadership initiatives at every level – achieving phenomenal change in unexpected places.  Leaders especially identify with Mike being accountable for results in an environment where he couldn't make the rules.  He focused on the one thing he could influence: his crew's attitude, because culture is the ultimate competitive weapon for any organization.  That's why Wall Street Journal, Fast Company and others have cited Mike's story.  It's also why Mike is so popular with such a wide rangeConnect with Janet Ioli:Website: janetioli.comLinkedin: Janet IoliInstagram: @janetioliJanet is the founder of Leadership Presence.

Hey there! Send us a message. Who else should we be talking to? What topics are important? Use FanMail to connect! Let us know!The CopDoc Podcast - Season 8 - Episode 152What happens when a Naval Captain witnesses his crew cheering as his predecessor leaves? For Mike Abershoff, it sparked a leadership revolution that transformed USS Benfold from one of the worst ships in the Pacific Fleet to the best in the entire US Navy – all in just 15 months."The days of top-down command and control, my way or the highway leadership style, are over," Abershoff explains in this riveting conversation. Drawing from his bestselling book "It's Your Ship" (which has sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide), he shares how replacing fear with respect created extraordinary results.Abershoff's methods were unconventional but effective. He interviewed all 310 crew members individually, seeing his ship through their eyes. He published the budget openly, empowering sailors to make financial decisions. He replaced divisive "diversity training" with a unity program based on mutual respect. Most remarkably, he reduced disciplinary cases from 28 to 5 per year, discovering in the process that previous leadership had unconsciously targeted minority sailors.The parallels to policing are striking and instructive. Both military and law enforcement organizations have traditionally valued hierarchy and directive leadership, yet both face increasingly complex challenges requiring adaptability and innovation. "Just because we grew up in a system where our chain of command were buttheads to us doesn't mean we need to continue it," Abershoff advises police leaders.Throughout our conversation, Abershoff reveals himself as a leader still learning – willing to acknowledge self-doubt, emotional connections, and the importance of seeing leadership from different perspectives. His "monkey tree" analogy (what looks like smiling faces from the top looks very different from below) offers a powerful reminder about truly understanding those we lead.Whether you're a veteran police leader, an aspiring supervisor, or simply interested in organizational transformation, Abershoff's insights will challenge conventional wisdom and inspire a more engaged, respectful approach to leadership. Listen now to discover how small, consistent improvements can revolutionize your team's performance and culture.Contact us: copdoc.podcast@gmail.com Website: www.copdocpodcast.comIf you'd like to arrange for facilitated training, or consulting, or talk about steps you might take to improve your leadership and help in your quest for promotion, contact Steve at stephen.morreale@gmail.com

The space between your current reality and the extraordinary life you've imagined isn't measured in external circumstances but in the quantum architecture of your consciousness itself. This Quantum Field Sleep Programming bypasses the analytical mind entirely, working directly with your subconscious during the hypnagogic state—that magical threshold between wakefulness and sleep where the barriers between dimensions of consciousness become permeable. As your body relaxes into perfect stillness, we'll activate specific neural pathways that allow quantum command phrases to rewrite the electromagnetic templates governing your reality manifestation. You might call them affirmations but they are so much more. These aren't ordinary words but vibrational instructions that interface directly with your energy field and the quantum substrate beneath physical experience. When received during the delta and theta brainwave states of deep sleep, these commands bypass all resistance, instantly dissolving limitation patterns while simultaneously installing new coherent frequencies that the universe responds to with perfect fidelity. The technology you're about to experience represents the convergence of ancient wisdom traditions and cutting-edge quantum consciousness research—a synthesis of techniques that creates immediate vibrational shifts at the causal level of reality creation. This process systematically reprograms the actual broadcast your energy field transmits to the quantum field, permanently upgrading your reality creation architecture.

After sharing my quantum command phrases in previous episodes, I've been overwhelmed by your messages describing the remarkable financial breakthroughs you've experienced. The testimonials have been pouring in – stories of unexpected money, new opportunities, and financial transformations that seemed to manifest shortly after incorporating these specific linguistic patterns into your daily practice.  Many of you specifically requested an episode focused on attracting large sums of money using these quantum command phrases. You shared how the identity transformation phrases, reality-restructuring commands, and energetic alignment statements I developed have already created noticeable shifts in other areas of your life.What makes these quantum command phrases uniquely powerful is their precise linguistic structure. Unlike ordinary affirmations that merely suggest possibilities, these phrases issue direct commands to the quantum field through specific vibrational signatures. When spoken with proper emotional resonance and intention, they literally collapse probability waves into your desired experience of financial abundance. The phrases I'm about to share utilize the exact same quantum linguistic technology I've developed through years of research and testing.

In this episode, Chris Benzinger joins us to discuss navigating big and small life transitions. We have all probably found ourselves on the other end of a transition feeling unfulfilled or confused. Chris takes us through a reflection of Joshua leading the Israelites across the Jordan and relates it to change in our lives. We talk about why it can be difficult to move on from blessings of the past and how remembering with gratitude is the first step in walking through transitions. We also discuss the practice of taking memorial stones with us to remember the Lord's blessings, giving thanks in all circumstances, and growing a lens of gratitude. Join us for part two next week!   Heather's One Thing - Festival of Praise at Franciscan University Sister Miriam's One Thing - Sacramental transitions Michelle's One Thing - Chris! Chris' One Thing - Michelle :)   Journal Questions: What transitions am I currently going through? How have I experienced transition in the past? What do I need to remember with gratitude? What truth is the Lord speaking to me in my current circumstances?   Discussion Questions: What are you most grateful for in your recent transitions in life? What did the Father show you about His character in the previous season? What are the greatest fears you experience when facing transition? How will you allow space in your heart as you experience changes in your season of life? How can you embrace both the grief of what has ended and the joy of the new adventure in your transition?   Quote to Ponder: “And the Lord said to Joshua, “Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony to come up out of the Jordan.” Joshua therefore commanded the priests, “Come up out of the Jordan.” And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, as before.” (Josua 4:15-18)   Scripture for Lectio: “Rejoice always, pray continually, and give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)   Sponsor - Our Holy Home: We're so grateful to partner this season with Our Holy Home — a Catholic brand that's on a mission to fill homes with beauty, subtle reminders of faith, and a deep sense of peace in the everyday.
