There is still a caveman instinct inside of us as men. Has the image got distorted as men try to metamorphize ourselves to fit what society tells us a man should be. Trying to fit what we are really not, is hard work. At some point there may be an increased desire to self-soothe and escape into cyberworld for a while – using sex, porn and/or other compulsive behaviours. Consider this poem: Children Learn What They LiveAuthor: Dorothy Law NolteIf a child lives with criticism, he [she] learns to condemn.If a child lives with hostility, he [she] learns to fight.If a child lives with ridicule, he [she] learns to be shy.If a child lives with shame, he [she] learns to feel guilty.If a child lives with tolerance, he [she] learns to be patient.If a child lives with encouragement, he [she] learns confidence.If a child lives with praise, he [she] learns to appreciate.If a child lives with fairness, he [she] learns justice.If a child lives with security, he [she] learns to have faith.If a child lives with approval, he [she] learns to like himself [herself].If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he [she] learns to find love in the world.Templates and scripts from batons and intergenerational patterns passed on, are already shaping the developing brain in such an early formative time, which will set up patterns that continue to play out in adulthood. Therefore, significance must be given to this period in the man's life.(Let's build upon this in the subsequent episodes of this interesting podcast chat).Get some help from The Kairos Centre.

Earthwise Minerals CEO Mark Luchinski joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received encouraging assay results from its 2025 field program at the Iron Range Project in British Columbia, with samples returning grades up to 13.4 g/t gold, 27.2 g/t silver, >10,000 ppm arsenic, and 2.7% lead. Earthwise holds an exclusive option to earn up to an 80% interest in the Iron Range Project from Eagle Plains Resources Ltd., which owns the property 100%. Management from both companies consider the project to have strong potential for multiple mineralization styles, including structurally controlled gold-silver, iron-oxide copper-gold (IOCG), and Sullivan-style lead-zinc-silver SEDEX mineralization. A portion of the property remains subject to a 1.0% NSR held by a third party. Luchinski explained that the 2025 field program focused on detailed follow-up of historic soil and till geochemical anomalies, geological mapping, and prospecting along structural splays of the Iron Range Fault—a major regional structure associated with past discoveries. Work targeted the Pyromorphite, Star West, DIP, and Golden Cap zones. In total, geological crews from Terralogic Exploration Inc. collected 531 soil samples, 15 rock samples, and 5 heavy mineral concentrates. The high-grade assays and strong pathfinder elements support the company's belief that multiple mineralized structures remain underexplored across the district-scale property. Earthwise expects the new results to guide its next phase of exploration as it works toward defining drill-ready targets for future programs. #proactiveinvestors #earthwiseminerals #cse #wise #ironrangeproject #GoldExploration #SilverMining #ZincDiscovery #BCMining #SullivanStyleDeposit #JuniorMining #MiningInvesting #ResourceExploration #MarkLuchinski
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 19, 2025 is: serendipity sair-un-DIP-uh-tee noun Serendipity refers to luck that takes the form of finding valuable or pleasant things that are not looked for, or to an instance of such luck. // They found each other by pure serendipity. See the entry > Examples: “For new music, I rely on ... radio shows like ‘Late Junction,' straight-up luck and serendipity, and my wife, who has impeccable taste.” — Liam Brickhill, LitHub.com, 5 Dec. 2024 Did you know? The word serendipity did not come about by luck; rather, it was intentionally coined by 18th century author Horace Walpole, who was eager to share a happenstance discovery he had made while researching a coat of arms. In a letter to his friend Horace Mann he wrote: “This discovery indeed is almost of that kind which I call Serendipity, a very expressive word, which ... I shall endeavor to explain to you: you will understand it better by the derivation than by the definition. I once read a silly fairy tale, called ‘The Three Princes of Serendip': as their highnesses travelled, they were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in quest of ...” Walpole's memory of the tale (which, as luck would have it, was not quite accurate) gave serendipity the meaning it retains to this day.

That's not me".Many clients initially (but silently and violently) object to any suggestion that there is Narcissism at work. I am never suggesting they have NPD (Narcissist Personality Disorder), but that they WILL have traits from Narcissism.Here is one definition of Narcissism which I use: "Narcissism is the way we conceptualise how we will look after ourselves. In its pathological form, it refers to people who seem incapable of acknowledging or taking sufficient account of the reality of other people and their separate existence. Narcissistic Personality Disorder describes those who exemplify an extreme form of this characteristic. The primary purpose of Narcissism is to compensate for experience, usually in early childhood, when ordinary expectable needs were not met adequately. The Narcissist denies dependence on others and denies even that others exist except as players in the Narcissist's drama. Other people are required to meet the narcissist's needs for recognition and value, but without relationship being reciprocated.The narcissist gives nothing, but demands others give everything. Therefore the original horrific experience of unmet need and the shame and vulnerability that goes with it, is denied and defended against.Traits include being the centre of attention; little interest in others; craves recognition and praise. They are performers and want others to keep on clapping and not stop; controls and dominates interaction with others; has to be right; cannot admit to ever being wrong and never apologises; insists on things being done their way; always makes the choices and decisions. Reliance on another is not acknowledged"."Gary, let me show you evidence that I do not seek attention, take little interest in others, don't crave recognition or attention, let alone a performer and want claps. How dare you...."Until I unfold their behaviours and leave them with 'food for thought' to reflect upon; including going back to my definition of Sex Addiction to see 'the function which the addiction serves'.Get some help from The Kairos Centre.

Markets opened weakly on Tuesday but finished in the green as Buy-the-Dip traders stepped back in. The S&P 500 bounced off its 50-DMA and is on the verge of a momentum buy signal, while relative strength continues to improve — a bullish sign for near-term market direction. Rotation remains the key theme: Energy (XLE) is starting to lift, even with oil prices steady. Natural gas could see rising demand as AI-driven data centers strain the power grid. Consumer Staples are beginning to recover as investors rotate toward defensive names. Lance Roberts explains how sector rotation is shaping market momentum — and what it means for portfolio positioning as breadth improves.

Episode 196 starts with the hosts diving into a nostalgic food-themed segment. Todd introduces lists of popular 80s and 90s foods making a comeback, sparking a lively discussion. Dunkaroos are revisited with debates about chocolate versus vanilla icing and the small size of the icing compartment. The hosts reminisce on other nostalgic snacks like Fun Dip and Nutella, sharing personal anecdotes on how these treats were consumed. The conversation includes a critique of snack packaging design, such as the impractical shapes of the cheese compartments in crackers, showing consumer frustration with inconvenient product design.The segment continues with discussions about frozen snacks like Dippin' Dots, which are praised for their novelty but criticized for their BB-like texture that can get stuck in teeth. The hosts humorously suggest new utensils and marketing ideas to improve the eating experience. Bagel Bites are compared unfavorably to pizza rolls based on texture and burning tendencies, illustrating how food form factors impact usability and enjoyment.Uncrustables are highlighted as a beloved yet rarely consumed treat, with preferences for slightly frozen versus fully thawed versions sparking debate. The hosts impart “bread prophylactic” knowledge to avoid jelly leakage, showcasing their detailed food insights.The nostalgic journey continues with cereals, noting that Golden Grahams and Cocoa Puffs are resurging in popularity, though opinions on their taste vary widely. The hosts recall vintage commercials and discuss the evolution of flavors and texture, with humorous side notes on cereal consumption habits.The podcast then shifts gears into a fun interactive segment titled “Word Teasers,” where the hosts challenge each other to interpret British, Irish, and Australian slang phrases. This game adds a cultural and educational dimension to the show, featuring terms like “posh,” “gas man,” and “bee's knees,” providing a playful exploration of language differences and idiomatic expressions.Highlights[04:19]
The Buy-the-Dip crowd showed up again as markets tested the 50-DMA.

In this episode of The Coach Dave Love Podcast, we dive into one of the most polarizing shooting mechanics in basketball: the Dip.Once seen as a bad habit to eliminate, the pendulum has now swung in the opposite direction—some coaches actively teach it. But what's the science behind it? What are the trade-offs when players dip versus when they don't? And how can coaches make informed decisions rather than rely on trends?Dave and Matt explore:What the dip does (and doesn't) accomplish from a physics perspectiveHow it fits within Dave's Sandbox Analogy of shooting mechanicsHow coaches can help players explore the dip more intentionally and effectivelyPlus: we feature our first-ever listener question!

RUNDOWN Mitch solves last week's "mafia lookalike" mystery — listeners decide he's a dead ringer for The Sopranos' Michael Imperioli. The guys riff through Goodfellas lore, Seahawks' second straight blowout win, and Von Miller's hilarious regret about choosing Washington over Seattle ("it's like turning down a girl who became a movie star"). Heartfelt condolences to the family of Lenny Wilkens, celebrating the Hall of Famer's legacy as both player and coach — and his decades as the Pacific Northwest's ultimate basketball statesman. Then it's back to football as the guys revel in another stress-free Seahawks blowout, highlighted by two identical sack-fumble touchdowns from Tyrese Knight and DeMarcus Lawrence. Mitch welcomes back Brady Henderson and Jacson Bevens for another Seahawks No-Table after a 44-22 dismantling of the Cardinals. The crew marvels at a team that suddenly looks like a legitimate Super Bowl contender, while debating the sloppy second half and the emerging run-game breakthrough. They dig into injury updates on Ernest Jones, and Jarran Reed, the trade for Rashid Shaheed, and the defense's uncanny "next-man-up" magic under Mike Macdonald. Mitch reconnects with Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a wild week in college football — starting with Washington's shocking collapse in Madison. Rick calls it a "disaster," offers perspective on Jed Fisch's road woes, and shares how leadership, not logistics, separates winners from whiners. From there, the conversation races across the national landscape: Penn State's heartbreak at Happy Valley, Texas Tech's oil-fueled rise, and which Group of Five team might crash the playoff. Then Neuheisel dives into Lincoln Riley's number-swap trickery — calling it "legal but unethical" — before handing out Taco Time honors. Mitch reconvenes the Seattle Kraken No-Table with RJ Eskanos and Dylan Travers of Emerald City Hockey for the team's first check-in of the season. Despite a solid early record and a near-top Pacific Division standing, the panel wonders how sustainable it really is. RJ notes that the offense remains among the league's weakest, while Dylan credits new head coach Lane Lambert for installing a defense-first system that maximizes effort and structure.

Home to Allan and his company, Software Strategy Ltd. Let him take up the story:Once upon a time I was a programmer, people I worked with thought I was quite a good one. I was part of a team building a hand-held PC, which was a big deal in 1991. I worked on electricity modelling, I wrote programs for railway timetables, software for banks and real-time data feeds for Reuters. I built secure e-mail systems and mobile phone network diagnostic tools.The code was not the problem, the problem was the way the team was set up, the problem was the way we were asked to work, or the way work reached us. To fix that problem I needed to become a manager… but I didn't want to be a foolish manager like all the ones I'd worked for before, so I got myself a management qualification. And while I was getting that qualification, I discovered that modern management thinking was very close to the then newly emerging field of “agile software development.” When I look back at my experiences so much of the good times matched the thing, we call agile.I still love software, I love coding, but I don't code any more. (Actually, I do code a little, for love.) I devote my time to helping make software better. In my mind when I'm teaching, advising, coaching, consulting I'm helping the person I used to be. When I see programmers at work I see my younger self. And I want them to do a great job, I want them to be able to do a better job than I ever did.Today I call myself an Agile Guide – I guide people and organizations to greater agility. I provide coaching and direct advice on agile working to leaders and teams creating digital products (software!). The companies I work with come from many fields as different as healthcare and surveying. However, they all depend on software to deliver for their customers. Without software they are nothing. Yesterday… I started coding in 1982 on a Sinclair ZX81. By 1986 I was earning money as a regular contributor to BBC Telesoftware – PDP, PDR, Eclipse, Fonts, Demon's Tomb, EMACS (no, not that emacs), Snapshot and Femcoms to name a few, mostly in 6502 assembler. In 1989 I was a system administrator with Nixdorf Computer. In 1991 I was a software tester at DIP in Guildford building the Sharp PC-3000. Even as an undergraduate I was hired by the University to help teach other undergraduates and occasionally post-graduates.

During this sensitive period of development, a child acquires a variety of new abilities and skills that are a necessary part of child development. There are five sensitive period categories, which include language, order, sensory skills, motor skills, and social skills.Many people experience some type of wounding during their early development and learn to numb their pain by self-soothing with one or more compulsive behaviours. As adults, they may continue to struggle with the compulsive misuse of alcohol, drugs, spending, food, sex, relationships or the Internet. All addictions feature a very complex emotional and biochemical process that have origins in childhood trauma and the deprivation of authentic intimacy and bonding during development.Socially induced pathology appears between the ages of 4 to 5 and 8 to 9.The onset of male sexual imprinting is from aged 3 to 4 and peaks at 8 to 9, with an upper tail at about aged 13. These sex and relationship templates (set up in childhood) become activated at puberty and develop and continue throughout adult life.4 Ways in which juvenile sex and relsp templates are developmentally vulnerable to socially induced pathology:· Explicitly neglecting to monitor and reinforce healthy sexual rehearsal play.· Punishing or humiliating children for their rehearsal play.· Prematurely inducting children into sexual rehearsal play.· Coercing children into age-discrepant sexual rehearsal play.Our early attachment styles are established in childhood through the infant/caregiver relationship. Four distinguishing characteristics of attachment are:1 Proximity Maintenance - The desire to be near the people we are attached to.2 Safe Haven - Returning to the attachment figure for comfort and safety in the face of a fear or threat.3 Secure Base - The attachment figure acts as a base of security from which the child can explore the surrounding environment.4 Separation Distress - Anxiety that occurs in the absence of the attachment figure.Templates are setting up traits that will play out in Adulthood, which the child did not vote to have at work in their life.

Nvidia just took a $1 billion stake in Nokia—and Nokia plans to spend that money buying Nvidia's own AI chips. It's not the first time.

Nvidia just took a $1 billion stake in Nokia—and Nokia plans to spend that money buying Nvidia's own AI chips. It's not the first time.

This conversation with CEO of Dip HairCare Kate Assaraf was so fun for me, because 1: it's Dip shampoo bars, and if you've listened to the podcast for a while, you've heard me talk about shampoo bars, and 2: we're talking about an exciting collab with Kate/Dip and GoGo Refill, my refill store back in Maine that I love. They've done a few collabs together, but this November 13, Kate is debuting GoGo Refill's very own exclusive shampoo bar scent, and they'll both be at the South Portland GoGo Refill store to celebrate!Kate's big message is to shop local - especially with the holidays coming up, but in general, consider shopping small and local when we can. Nobody is perfect, but we can try to be support local when it's possible, and keep the currency circulating locally - it also creates a relationship...We talked about Kate's product ingredients, and one of her secrets she's keeping to herself, but another is that she has 20+ years in the beauty industry, and she uses some of the highest quality, science-backed ingredients in the most expensive shampoos - so you're not missing out by using a shampoo bar!Dip has been awarded best hair care and doing good for the planet AND has been recognized as an Oprah favorite!Please don't forget to go to GoGo Refill in S Portland, ME on November 13 for the unveiling of Dip's exclusive shampoo bar scent Coastal Maine Pine!Find Dip headquarters here: https://dipalready.com/Dip's Instagram page is here to follow : https://www.instagram.com/dipalready/Wherever you're on socials, look up Dipalready .We talked about my fave refill store, GoGo Refill- shop sustainable products here: https://www.gogorefill.com/We also talked a little bit about Guster, and the program that Adam co-founded to bring water refill to concerts - here's more about the program https://reverb.org/artist/guster/Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

AI pilots were hot in 2024—but by 2025, nearly half are being scrapped before they ever hit production. So how do you know when your AI initiative is a breakthrough in waiting… and when it's time to walk away? Courtney Baker returns with Knownwell's David DeWolf and Mohan Rao to unpack the signals leaders should watch for. From the 426-AI-projects horror story to the psychological traps that sabotage momentum, they explore how to stay strategic in a sea of experiments. Mohan invokes Seth Godin's The Dip to draw the line between temporary struggles and real structural limits—while David warns against corporate "busy work" that masquerades as innovation. Courtney also welcomes back a past guest for a second try at a ChatGPT voice interview—this time, with much better results. Has the model improved? Is the Scarlett Johansson drama behind us? You'll want to hear how the bot handles a hot-seat question about its own failures.
This week, The Majesty is talking about why the time is NOW to give Jade Cargill a massive push, plus reacting to WWE's WrestleMania Vegas tease poster that had everyone's thumbs busy with very mixed opinions.Dip also takes a trip down memory lane, discussing his classic WCW Galoob action figures, and we debate whether turning Jey Uso heel might be exactly what WWE Raw needs right now.Make sure to follow us on TikTok @cheapheatpod!!!!!!Listen to Cheap Heat Live Fridays 12pm- 2pm EST on Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 on Channel 156.Call in at 844-344-4893Wanna stay MAJ?Join our PateronFollow @cheapheatpod on Instagram and subscribe to Rosenberg's Youtube Channel.Email the show Rosenbergwrestling@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Send us a text- On-Demand Programme Link - https://mailchi.mp/bb2a7b851246/kairos-centreSex Addiction is different to Porn Addiction. Sex & Porn Addiction are different to Love Addiction. They all get set up in 3 ways:1. Opportunity: Material accessed too early in childhood development2. Trauma: Just as it says on the label of the can! But make trauma age-related and its impact on the immature developing brain, not what is going on in wars between Russia & Ukraine, Israel & Hamas3. Insecure Attachment: A disruption in the early years bonding between the child and main caregiversDefinition of sex addiction: A pattern of sexual behaviours which pre-occupy your thoughts and are out of control. You cannot stay stopped for a sustainable period or consistently and it has harmful consequences and the behaviour serves a function in your life and it is used primarily to anaesthetize some negative feeling state. (The important criteria which makes it an addiction, rather than a love of sex, is that it serves a function). Love Addiction: We all want love and affection and to feel special to at least one person. We need attachment and instinctively seek connection, especially romantic connection. There is nothing dysfunctional about wanting love and affection and connection.Love addiction, however, is a compulsive, chronic craving and/or pursuit of romantic love in an effort to get our sense of security and worth from another person. During infatuation we believe we have that security only to be disappointed and empty again once the intensity fades. The negative consequences can be severe and yet the love addict continues to hang on to the belief that true love will fix everything.Therefore, they eventually get back up after the hurt of rejection and try the chase again and again, even when love from at least one other, is in front of them. Caused by “Attachment”, mostly set up in childhood, it seeks to fill a perceived void, that will never actually be filled.We all want love and affection and to feel special to at least one person. We need attachment and we instinctively seek connection, especially romantic connection. There is nothing dysfunctional about wanting love, affection and connection.There is a difference between a Compulsion and an Addiction, even if the journey to recovery is the same.

The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour: Wellness Wisdom ShowGrandpa Bill -Pisces, Narrating the Analysis:"Welcome back, seekers! Grandpa Bill here, closing out October with Tam Veilleux's Energy Almanac in hand. If the first half was about digging up our fears, this second half was about re-planting our roots for long-term growth and getting a spiritual re-calibration. The overarching theme of shifting 'Fear into Wisdom' really crystalized in the final two weeks.The first major shift came mid-month when Pluto stationed Direct in Aquarius (around the 13th/14th, though its energy was strongly felt after the 16th). Pluto's power is huge. After months of inner reflection, this transit pushed forward necessary social, technological, and collective shifts. For us, it meant the long-overdue shifts in power dynamics—in our businesses, our families, even in our communities—started to gain momentum. As a Pisces, I felt this as a powerful surge of collective subconscious change; a massive wave we had to ride with awareness.Then came the beautiful New Moon in Libra (around the 21st). This was the cosmic clean slate! Following the intense Aries Full Moon, this was the moment to set intentions for balanced relationships, new agreements, and harmony. It's the perfect energy for anyone looking to reset partnerships in business or at home—a true win-win opportunity that Venus's earlier entry into Libra had paved the way for.Right on its heels, we plunged fully into the intensity with the Sun Entering Scorpio (around the 22nd), marking the official start of the Season of Transformation. Our focus turns deep, intense, and to the emotional truth. This is when we look at shared resources, intimacy, and the shadow aspects we're still confronting—perfectly echoing Tam's monthly theme.But for me, as a Pisces, the most resonant event was Neptune Re-entering Pisces (Retrograde) on the 22nd. This is a Spiritual Re-calibration. Neptune is our co-ruler, and its dip back into its home sign brought back themes of dreams, compassion, and the subtle realms for a second look. It was a time to check our spiritual boundaries and clear up any illusions that were still clouding our intuition. It truly grounded the holistic healing we talk about right here on the show.Finally, the month closes out with Mercury entering Sagittarius (around the 29th) in opposition to Uranus. This opens the mind, encourages the expansion of faith and trust, and disrupts old thought patterns for one last burst of authentic self-expression. We end the month not just having faced our fears, but having successfully alchemized them into genuine, long-term wisdom."Grandpa Bill's Pisces Energy Almanac Recap (October 16th - 31st, 2025)TitleTransformation Finale: Scorpio Season, Neptune's Reset, & Pluto's Power Surge#,TransformationFinale #PlutoDirect #NewMoonLibra, #SpiritualReset, #OctoberAstrology,#New Moon Focus,T#NewMoonMagic #LibraNewMoon #RelationshipReset, #BalancedLiving, #EnergeticReset,#Planetary Shifts,#Pluto Direct & Neptune's Dip, #Harnessing Massive Change, #Inner Alignment,#PlutoInAquarius, #NeptuneInPisces, #CosmicCalibration, #IntuitiveAlignment, #Astrology2025,#Scorpio Season Focus,#ScorpioSeason, #EmotionalTruth, #ShadowWorkHealing, #Depth and Growth, #HolisticHealingHour,#Holistic/Healing Focus, #ClaimYourPower, #FearToWisdom, #WellnessWisdom #GrandpaBill, #Tam Veilleux,
De strijd is heropend! Amazon investeert 1,4 miljard euro in de Nederlandse markt. Want het marktaandeel moet omhoog. Vijf jaar geleden kwam Amazon naar Nederland met de gedachte de bestaande spelers eruit te concurreren. Maar Coolblue en Bol.com bleken toch wat hardnekkiger. Gaat het ze met deze nieuwe zak geld dan wel lukken? En wat betekent die investering voor Bol.com-moeder Ahold? Dat zoeken we in deze aflevering uit. Je hoort ook over Basic-Fit. Dat gaat flink uitbreiden. Het neemt een Duitse concurrent over, en koopt zichzelf daarmee aanwezigheid in 6 nieuwe landen. En het krijgt er nog iets bij: de titel van grootste fitnessfranchise van Europa. Verder proberen we te achterhalen wat Bernard Arnault van plan is. Hij besteedt op zijn beurt ook 1,4 miljard euro in zijn eigen bedrijf. Hij kocht sinds februari flink aandelen LVMH in, en krijgt daarmee een stuk meer zeggenschap over het bedrijf. En we vertellen je over de brief van het Tesla-bestuur aan hun aandeelhouders. Dat bestuur maakt zich klaar voor een aandeelhoudersvergadering volgende week, waar veel mensen naar uitkijken. Hét discussiepunt: moet topman Elon Musk een bonus van 1 biljoen dollar beloofd worden? De bestuursvoorzitter adviseert beleggers alvast om daar wél mee in te stemmen. Want zonder Musk geen Tesla, en geen aandeelhouderswaarde, zegt hij.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a text- On-Demand Programme Link - https://mailchi.mp/bb2a7b851246/kairos-centreThe report found that 58% of respondents had seen violent pornography, including strangulation and rape scenes, before age 18, with girls more likely than boys to witness such content. Children are exposed to increasingly extreme online pornography, with concerns that new restrictions may be easily circumvented through VPNs. Worry was expressed, that even with new rules, users could bypass restrictions, as VPN usage in the UK had already increased significantly.70% of respondents had seen it, with an average age of first exposure being 13. Boys were more likely than girls to have seen pornography and vulnerable children, including those receiving free school meals or having disabilities, were more likely to have encountered it by age 11. Children are more likely to stumble upon pornography on social media sites like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok than on dedicated porn sites, with many discovering it by accident rather than actively seeking it out.X (formerly Twitter) is the most common source (outstripping the dedicated porn sites!). Other social media sites where porn is accessed, includes Snapchat at 29%, Instagram at 23%, TickTok at 22% and Youtube at 15%.All of this is a big deal because of what is being set up in this early childhood development stage, which will play out in adulthood. Consider the definition of Porn addiction which I use:"A pattern of sexual behaviours which pre-occupy your thoughts and are out of control. You cannot stay stopped for a sustainable period or consistently and it has harmful consequences and the behaviour serves a function in your life and it is used primarily to anaesthetize some negative feeling state. (The important criterion, which makes it an addiction, rather than a love of sex, is that, it serves a function)".Many view the phase of childhood from birth to age 6 (and beyond) as a critical time of sensitivity, during which time, templates are created which shape future interpersonal interactions. During the sensitive period of development, a child acquires a variety of new abilities and skills that are a necessary part of child development. There are five sensitive period categories, which include language, order, sensory skills, motor skills, and social skills. For example, The onset of male sexual imprinting is from aged 3 to 4 and peaks at 8 to 9, with an upper tail at about aged 13.Get some help from The Kairos Centre. See what you cannot see.

I kept going back to view when they were out and took a few to my my room. They never knew".That is the very typical answer that I have been given by a large percentage of my adult clients when taking them through my History Taking Questionnaire. I ask them 188 questions over three 50 minutes sessions and their answers help me and them to build a profile understanding of the client from birth to current adult age; in order to answer the key question - for working with in EMDR and/or my Recovery Programme - 'What happened to you back there during childhood development'. It is not about allocating blame to parents. I say to clients that before allocating blame to parents, they would need to first consider the parents who parented their parents to see the batons and scripts handed to their parents; by implication - for the client to 'get it/understand' what the client is likely to be passing on to their children - despite their parents filtering off the worse excesses of what happened to then, so as not to pass the same excess to their children. Get it?It is about 'curiosity', not blame inquisition. It is about getting into the sandpit with the client.Answering the question 'What happened back there' - helps to better understand the brain's choice of preferred self-soothing behaviour for the adversity which was impacting them back there in childhood. (The client does not choose the type of compulsive behaviour. The brain chooses). That repeat (order from the menu!) over time, unwittingly became a compulsive response to a real or expected or perceived 'look alike' similar adversity.They have embarked on the hamster wheel; created a 'go-to'; carved out a habit; etched on the brain a neural pathway, to manage emotions by escape and camouflaging the adversity for a while. Problem: They are skipping the developmental brains training to use more positive life-skill coping strategies which other children are learning. Problem: They have to begin anew in adulthood to now learn for the first time, those postponed learning that were tools in the toolkit armoury which other children acquired.Problem: They are unaware that what is also happening at that early age, is that the physiology of the body was being changed to become 'use dependent' on the very potent neurochemical mix being secreted into their immature brain - called Dopamine, Serotonin, Oxytocin, norephrinepine - which are as potent as illegal street drugs.Get some help from The Kairos Centre.

In this week's episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-hosts Gunjan Banerji and Telis Demos talk to billionaire investor Cliff Asness, the co-founder and chief investment officer of AQR Capital Management. AQR is a global investment management firm known for quantitative investing, an approach that builds strategies based on data and research. Asness discusses one of the market's biggest trends: the explosion in popular ETFs designed to protect investors from downturns. But do they actually work? Later, Asness shares why he thinks trading on Robinhood can feel more like betting on FanDuel, why the stock market has become less rational due to social media, and whether Palantir and Tesla are on the meme stock spectrum. Then, he weighs in on companies reporting earnings every six months, market froth and the bind facing the Federal Reserve. This is WSJ's Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street's banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.

When markets soar, investors face a subtle but dangerous temptation: trading wisdom for excitement.With headlines touting record highs and optimism running wild, it's easy to get swept up in the momentum. But is now the time to double down—or to take a step back and exercise caution? Today, Mark Biller joins us to unpack the dangers of investing with emotion instead of wisdom.Mark Biller is Executive Editor and Senior Portfolio Manager at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. Bull Market Optimism: Proceed with CautionThe stock market has staged a remarkable comeback since spring, and many investors are feeling hopeful about the year ahead. But while optimism is natural, there's a fine line between healthy confidence and dangerous overconfidence.Just a few months ago, fear dominated the market. Now, investor sentiment has swung in the opposite direction—toward excessive optimism. History shows us that both extremes can lead to poor decision-making. Just as fear prompts panic-selling in downturns, overconfidence during bull markets can drive people to take unnecessary risks.The late 1990s provide a clear example. The dot-com bubble fueled euphoric investing in internet companies, but when the bubble burst, enormous wealth evaporated. While the internet did transform the world, many early investors paid a steep price for ignoring caution.The Risk of Projecting the PresentOptimism in the long term is typically rewarded—stocks have trended upward for more than a century despite wars, recessions, and downturns. But short-term overconfidence is dangerous. Since October 2023, the stock market has gained about 60%—roughly six years of typical returns compressed into less than two. It's unrealistic to assume such momentum will continue indefinitely.In environments like this, investors often fall into two traps:Doubling down on every dip. Rather than seeing pullbacks as a chance to pause, many rush to “buy the dip” without considering long-term goals. Abandoning diversification. When some holdings lag behind, it's tempting to dump them in favor of high-flyers like gold or crypto. This shortsightedness often backfires.Diversification: A Biblical PrincipleKing Solomon offered timeless wisdom in Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Give a portion to seven, or even to eight, for you know not what disaster may happen on earth.” Diversification is, at its core, an act of humility. Since no one knows the future, spreading investments across asset classes is the most reliable defense against both downturns and emotional decision-making.While diversification may feel “boring” during bull markets, it provides stability that helps investors stay committed to their plan when volatility inevitably returns.A strong investment strategy accounts for risk tolerance, life stage, and long-term goals. For a younger investor, this might mean a higher allocation to stocks, consistent 401(k) contributions, and the discipline to stay invested through ups and downs. For others, it may involve gradual adjustments, such as including gold or bonds. The key is making changes based on thoughtful, long-term reasoning—not fear of missing out.Confidence vs. OverconfidenceHealthy confidence comes from setting reasonable goals, understanding fundamentals, and staying the course. Overconfidence, on the other hand, assumes you can predict what's coming next—a trap no investor avoids for long.Optimism has its place, but unchecked euphoria can cloud judgment. By remembering history, practicing diversification, and committing to a steady long-term plan, investors can avoid the pitfalls of emotional decision-making and pursue lasting financial fruitfulness.If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sound Mind Investing (SMI) member, you can visit them at SoundMindInvesting.org.
