No one ever became excellent by chance, the Stoics said…so if you want to be courageous and disciplined and ethical, you gotta do the work.

If the greatest gap between successful and unsuccessful people is the thinking gap, how can you close it? In this episode, John Maxwell is sharing the key to shrinking the distance between where you are and where you want to be!  After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede sit down to talk about what John has shared and offer you practical application for your own life and leadership.  Key takeaways:  The most effective leaders give themselves permission to think about what's possible, not just what's probable.  If I think that there is an answer, I'll become a victor. If I think that there's no answer, I'll become a victim.  When facing a problem, think beyond just resolving the issue at hand. Discover solutions to eliminate the root cause and equip others to handle it in the future.  Our BONUS resource for this episode is the How to Close the Thinking Gap Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching.

The Christian Duty of Hard Work, Discipline, and Courage : Luke 22:35-38 : Pastor Raef Chenery : 06-08-25 by Park Community Church

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the deep divisions in the country and the personal power each individual holds over their mindset. He urges listeners to rise above the chaos, political strife, and media-fed negativity by embracing an unshakable inner confidence and joy. Drawing inspiration from Stoic philosopher Epictetus and biblical teachings, Brett emphasizes that while we cannot control the external world, we can choose how we respond to it. He calls on his audience to reject fear and despair and instead live with courage, purpose, and good cheer. Stressing that life is finite, Brett argues that we should not waste it worrying about inevitable conflict or the unknown future. Instead, he encourages cultivating joy as an act of strength and defiance in a world consumed by division. The message is clear: own your mindset, live fully, and be a light in troubled times. We’re joined by Coach Matt Doherty to discuss the recent unrest in California, the challenges of law enforcement, and the deeper implications for American society. Brett and Coach dive into what they see as a troubling lack of leadership from state officials, raising questions about whether political motives are allowing chaos to fester. Coach Doherty highlights concerns about sanctuary policies, the role of illegal immigration in the labor force, and the broader cultural shift away from accountability. We’re joined by Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley for an in-depth discussion on key issues facing the country. Chairman Whatley reacts strongly to what he describes as failed leadership in California, criticizing Governor Gavin Newsom and other Democrats for prioritizing political agendas over public safety. He points to President Biden’s border policies and California’s sanctuary stance as contributing factors to growing unrest. Shifting to a more optimistic note, Brett and Chairman Whatley discuss the progress of the “big, beautiful bill,” aimed at cutting taxes and providing relief for working Americans. They also touch on encouraging economic indicators and President Trump’s international trade negotiations, including new deals with China, the U.K., and India. Finally, Whatley highlights the surge of conservative energy in North Carolina, emphasizing its pivotal role in the upcoming elections and the Republican Party’s continued momentum.

In this candid conversation, Alvero "Al" Aguirre takes us through his remarkable journey from helping in his family's restaurants as a child to launching Taco Central, a unique Mexican-American fusion restaurant that opened in Downtown Marion around the beginning of 2025.Growing up with a grandfather who pioneered Mexican restaurants in Virginia during the 1980s, Al learned the craft from the ground up—delivering chips and salsa as a young boy, running the register by 13, and falling in love with kitchen work as a teenager. Now, he's channeling that passion and experience into a restaurant concept that deliberately breaks the mold. "We're not your normal Mexican restaurant," Al explains, describing how Taco Central blends authentic Mexican recipes (like his mother's birria) with creative American influences, offering everything from specialty wings to waffle fries alongside traditional tacos.The conversation dives deep into the realities of restaurant ownership—the sleepless nights, the challenges of maintaining consistency, the delicate balance of family life, and the critical importance of learning from mistakes. With refreshing honesty, Al discusses the inevitable hiccups of opening a restaurant and how transparency and continuous improvement have won customer loyalty. But perhaps most inspiring is his philosophy toward community building. Through initiatives like exchanging shirts with neighboring businesses, hosting local vendors on their patio at no cost, and planning various ways to give back, Taco Central exemplifies how small businesses can lift each other up rather than compete.Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur, a food lover, or someone passionate about community development, Al's story offers valuable insights about taking risks, believing in yourself, and creating something that transcends mere business to become a true community asset. Guest Links:Facebook: www.facebook.com/TacocentralOHMain Street Reimagined:Facebook: facebook.com/MainStreetReimaginedThe Main Street Reimagined Podcast, Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqfkmF5bRH0od1d3iiYKs3oEn_gvMYk7NHenry Development Group:Facebook: facebook.com/henrydevelopmentgroupWebsite: www.henrydevelopmentgroup.comDeveloping News Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/33110524eb5c/developing-newsLuke Henry:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/luhenryFacebook: facebook.com/luke.henry.148#FromPassionToPlate #LatinoEntrepreneur #RestaurantOwnerLife #StartupStories #ChasingDreams #MexicanAmericanFusion #TacoCentral #NotYourAverageTaco #FusionFlavors #ModernMexicanCuisine #KitchenGrit #BuiltFromScratch #FamilyBusinessRoots #SmallBusinessStruggles #FailForward #SupportLocalBusinesses #CommunityOverCompetition #GivingBackMatters #DowntownMarionEats #StrongerTogether #CandidConversations #BehindTheScenesBusiness #FounderFeature #RealTalkEntrepreneurs #SmallBizSpotlight

Send us a textAt just fourteen years old, Christy found herself pushing suitcases out of her window, running away with a boyfriend to Texas, and soon after, discovering she was pregnant. This moment would be the first of many life-altering decisions that shaped her journey through addiction, motherhood, and eventually, recovery.Christy's raw account of growing up too fast pulls no punches as she details her early introduction to methamphetamine, the painful choice to place her daughter in an open adoption, and her years-long battle with alcoholism that followed. What makes her story particularly powerful is her unflinching examination of family patterns and her determination to break the cycle of addiction for her children—even when that meant making heart-wrenching choices that others, including her own mother, couldn't understand.The turning point in Christy's recovery came unexpectedly when her ex-partner Blake faced a life-threatening medical emergency. Despite their complicated history, she stayed by his side through weeks of uncertainty, balancing her grandmother's funeral arrangements with hospital visits, all while maintaining her own sobriety. Through this crisis, both found their way to recovery together, demonstrating how connection can emerge from chaos.Today, with nearly two years of sobriety, Christy speaks eloquently about the miracle of changed perspective—how situations that once triggered anger or resentment now evoke compassion and understanding. Her journey illustrates that recovery isn't just about abstaining from substances; it's about transforming how we relate to ourselves and others, making amends, and sometimes making difficult choices out of love rather than convenience.Whether you're personally struggling with addiction, supporting a loved one in recovery, or simply seeking to understand the complex interplay between family dynamics and substance use, Christy's story offers invaluable insights on healing, forgiveness, and the courage to choose differently than those before us. Her testimony reminds us that breaking generational patterns often requires brave, unpopular decisions—but the freedom found on the other side is worth every difficult step.Thank You for Joining Us..

Emerson Fittipaldi made history with Lotus in 1972 by becoming the first Brazilian to win the Formula 1 World Championship. In 1974, he won the title again with McLaren. Emerson's achievements on track are legendary, but his actions off track are just as iconic. In a special F1 Beyond The Grid Legends episode, Emerson tells Tom Clarkson why he refused to take part in the 1975 Spanish Grand Prix, the extensive medical precautions he had in place during race weekends, and how he and some of the sport's other big names at the time helped improve safety in the sport. Emerson also talks about leaving Brazil for the UK to pursue his racing career, forming his own Brazilian F1 team, and the incredible phone call he received from Enzo Ferrari after Niki Lauda's serious accident in 1976. Plus, which current F1 driver reminds Emerson of himself? What impresses him the most about Max Verstappen? And how does he view this year's title battle between McLaren teammates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris?

We often talk about diversity in terms of background or culture, but age diversity plays just as big a role in team success. In this episode, we explore what happens when you bring together different generations at work and create space for all voices to be heard.Gary Danoff, a global leader at Google and an experienced executive coach, shares how he builds strong, multigenerational teams. He explains how to recognize and work with the different experiences that shape each generation. His approach centers on curiosity, active listening, and what he calls leading with love. Gary also shares how he encourages open conversations on teams and why understanding strengths is more useful than relying on labels.This is a practical look at how to create respectful, high-performing environments where people of any age feel valued and motivated.Key Takeaways:1. Curiosity is the bridge - Asking questions and staying open to others' experiences helps create understanding across generations.2. Labels are only starting points - Generational terms can guide conversations but should never limit how we see or support people.3. Love belongs in leadership - Caring about your team as people helps build trust and brings out their best work.4. Strengths matter more than age - People thrive when leaders match work styles to individual strengths, not generational stereotypes.5. Tough moments create growth - When conflict shows up, leaders need to step in, listen, and help teams learn through it.Resources MentionedThe Inspire Your Team to Greatness assessment (the Courage Assessment)How can you inspire our team to be more proactive, take ownership and get more done?You demonstrate and empower The Courage of a Leader.

Annie, Ella & André review the Spirit's 3-1 win over North Carolina Courage!It was a multi-goal win in Jonatan Giráldez's sign off at Audi. We discuss another iffy start, how the Courage frustrated the Spirit early, the solution that led to two goals, and the toll the international break took on the entire team.We also discuss the pre-match press conference, which doubled as a limited opportunity for some to ask Giráldez about his move to Lyonnes. We talk about how the questionable management of the presser didn't help clean up any of the poor optics, or messaging, around the move.Then we look ahead to this weekend's match against a very streaky Portland Thorns team. Thank you for listening, please subscribe, rate, and review. It means a lot to us!

At just 27, Richard Blank took a leap that would shape the rest of his life — relocating to Costa Rica to train over 5,000 employees at one of San Jose's largest call centers. That bold move sparked a journey filled with unexpected turns, cultural challenges, and remarkable growth. Today, Richard is the CEO of Costa Rica's Call Center (CCC), a company he founded in 2008. With a background in communication and Spanish from the University of Arizona — and a language proficiency certificate from the University of Sevilla — Richard combines motivational leadership with tactical communication strategies to empower his team. Over the years, he's personally trained more than 10,000 bilingual telemarketers. Beyond the headset and call metrics, Richard brings a unique twist to company culture: gamification. CCC boasts the largest private collection of restored American pinball machines and Rock-Ola jukeboxes in Central America — a reflection of his belief that fun, connection, and shared experiences are key to building strong teams. A passionate mentor and educator, Richard is also a keynote speaker and scholarship donor at his alma mater, Abington Senior High School, where he supports students pursuing world languages at the university level. This episode is packed with insight on leadership, resilience, and how culture can transform performance.
