Podcasts about distractions

On Day 2, we tackle the internal monologue. True, effortless focus begins with identity. If you constantly tell yourself you're easily distracted, your brain works hard to prove you right. Today, we're using the power of affirmation to embed a new self-image into your subconscious. Get ready to release the belief that focus is hard, and anchor into the truth: 'I am present, focused, and my attention is my superpower,' shifting your internal identity away from effort and toward effortless alignment." This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "Rewiring Your Attention Span for Laser Focus & Deep Work," episodes 3409-3419. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: The 10-minute Friction Fighter When the craving hits, do not touch the device. Immediately perform The Neural Navigator Breath and assume the Hakini Mudra for 60 seconds. Set a mental or physical timer for 10 minutes. this challenge uses behavioral conditioning to increase your brain's craving tolerance. By intentionally delaying the dopamine hit, you weaken the immediate reward circuit, making high-value, sustained tasks (like Deep Work) feel less effortful and more naturally rewarding over time. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Welcome to Dopamine Detox: Rewiring Your Attention Span for Laser Focus & Deep Work! If you feel like your attention is constantly being held hostage—pulled between notifications, endless tabs, and the relentless urge to scroll—you are not alone. In our hyper-stimulated world, distraction isn't a moral failing; it's a chemical problem. Your brain has been systematically trained by technology to seek out the tiny, instant gratification hits of dopamine that low-value tasks provide. This constant craving leaves you exhausted, scattered, and stuck in the restless loop of the Default Mode Network (DMN), making true, high-quality concentration feel impossible. This week, we are fighting fire with Neuroplasticity. This 7-day series isn't just about trying harder; it's about giving your brain a complete reboot. We will introduce targeted, science-backed meditation tools that strategically decrease your brain's dependence on instant hits and build the myelin sheaths required for Deep Work. By the end of this journey, you will have moved from reacting to distraction to proactively commanding your focus. You will build an unbreakable internal system that allows you to bypass analysis paralysis, overcome the resistance of starting difficult tasks, and enter the elusive Flow State on demand. Get ready to transform your attention span from a liability into your most powerful competitive advantage.

Listen as Pastor Rob McCoy—Charlie Kirk's pastor and close friend—addresses the conspiracy theories targeting those closest to Charlie, explains why Christians must reject speculation and "vain babbling," and issues an urgent call to pastors about the moment we're in.Charlie Kirk discipled an entire generation out of intellectual slavery. He gave them biblical confidence and taught them how to think. Now, in the aftermath of his death, Christians are being swept into conspiracy theories instead of focusing on what God is doing through this tragedy. Pastor Rob explains why this is spiritual warfare, how to maintain biblical peace amid chaos, and why this revival will fail without proper discipleship.✅ YOU'LL LEARN:How to apply 2 Timothy 2:14-17 to conspiracy theories and speculationWhy joy (not happiness) and peace (not absence of conflict) matter nowThe Moses/Joshua framework: Charlie freed them, pastors must lead themWhy the Jesus Movement had massive conversions but zero cultural impactWhat discipleship (not conversion) actually looks like in practice

In this message, Ministers Mark Ashton & Mary Claire Tarcza walk through the final chapter of our Long Story Short series—exploring the return from exile through Zerubbabel, Esther, Ezra, and Nehemiah, and pointing us toward the ultimate hope found in Jesus. This fast-paced overview traces 100 years of Israel's restoration: rebuilding the temple, standing with courage “for such a time as this,” returning to God's Word, and rebuilding a broken city and a broken people.If you've ever felt discouraged, distracted, disappointed, or unsure of where you fit in God's story, this message will anchor you in a bigger reality—God restores, God rebuilds, and God never stops working in the rubble of our lives. Discover how the themes of Mission over Mediocrity, Sacrifice over Silence, Devotion over Distraction, and Calling over Cushy shape a resilient faith that stands firm, even in seasons of ruin and rebuilding.Whether you're exploring Scripture for the first time or longing for a deeper spiritual foundation, this teaching will help you see the Old Testament with fresh clarity and point you to the only King who never fails—Jesus, the Cornerstone of every true restoration.

In our distraction-filled world, staying focused on God's purpose has become increasingly difficult yet spiritually critical. Nehemiah's story demonstrates the power of refusing distractions while rebuilding Jerusalem's walls. Despite constant interruptions, threats, and attempts to pull him away from his work, Nehemiah consistently responded with determination to continue his calling. Your great work exists at the intersection of a problem you can solve, a possibility for change, and a passion that moves you to action. When you identify this calling and refuse to come down from your wall, people will recognize that what you accomplish is only possible with God's help.

Ryan launches a multi-part series, Twisted Passions, addressing homosexuality and same-sex attraction from a biblical framework. He establishes why pastors should clearly preach what Scripture says while also equipping the church to counsel and care for strugglers, and he outlines upcoming topics: Is this sin “different,” are people “born this way,” and how do we raise kids in a sexualized culture? The aim is clarity, compassion, and confident hope in Christ for real victory.Topics DiscussedWhy churches must preach plainly on homosexuality (OT & NT texts)Common progressive rebuttals and why they don't hold up biblically (e.g., “love = affirmation,” misuse of John 8)Word study: ἀρσενοκοίτης and Paul's clarity in 1 Cor 6 / 1 Tim 1Beyond the pulpit: moving from denunciation to discipleship and counseling in the local churchShepherding kids in a perverted culture; building a proactive family planInviting listener questions/testimonies for future episodesKey TakeawaysScripture speaks clearly; pastors should, too—without hatred or compromise.“Love the sinner; hate the sin” isn't a cliché—Jesus says, “Go and sin no more.”Paul's terminology intentionally names male-with-male practice; it isn't vague.Churches must pair clear preaching with hands-on help for real people.Parents need an intentional, early plan to disciple children amid cultural lies.Ready to download the Cord App?

What if the greatest threat to your future isn't political chaos or an economic collapse—but spiritual blindness? In this powerful episode of Ready Radio, Bill Anderson—your “modern-day Noah”—sits down with expert instructor and patriot Todd Fossey of Integrative Defense Strategies (https://thisisids.com) to uncover the patterns shaping our times. From the art of psychological warfare to the crumbling foundation of our financial system, they reveal how propaganda, fear, and distraction are being used to divide and deceive. Are we witnessing history's oldest battle—the war for truth—playing out before our eyes? Todd shares insights from his background in neuropsychology, human performance, and geopolitics, warning that the enemy's tactics haven't changed since Eden: deception, disillusion, and the slow erosion of truth. But he also offers a way forward—how to “observe but not absorb,” stay grounded in prayer, and become the kind of spiritual watchman who sees danger coming before it strikes. As America faces moral decay, manipulated media, and a fragile fiat economy, the question remains: How do we prepare our hearts, homes, and finances for what's next? This conversation will leave you rethinking everything you thought you knew about readiness—because being prepared isn't paranoia. It's wisdom. Find out more at https://Ready-Radio.com

On today's episode, I talk to journalist and writer David J. Roth. Raised in Ridgewood, New Jersey, David started out his writing career writing and editing content for the backs of Topps trading cards. This led to writing for The Wall Street Journal's sports blog, co-founding and editing his own sports blog The Classical, and contributing to Vice and The Baffler, as well as many other publications. In 2017, David became an editor-at-large at Deadspin, and two years later, he and the entire writing and editorial staff resigned, protesting major editorial interference from the private equity holding company that had bought the publication. The following year, David and a number of the other former Deadspin writers formed Defector Media, one of the exciting new worker-owned journalism companies, and in the last five years, it has become one of the most well-regarded sites online. In addition to all of this, David also hosts the wonderful Defector podcast The Distraction. This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, follow me on Twitter.

Keeping the main thing the main thing is sometimes not that easy. Distractions abound. Is that possible in the church as well? Are believers at risk of losing track of the core reason we gather?

Ever blink at 4 p.m. and wonder where your day went? We've been there—busy all day yet weirdly light on results. This conversation lays out a distraction detox that replaces chaos with clarity using two simple moves: track the curveballs that hit you and cage the squirrels you chase. The payoff isn't just productivity; it's the calm that comes from finishing what matters most.We start by exposing curveballs—emails, calls, texts, “got a minute?” visits—that shred focus. By writing each one down and reviewing at week's end, you'll spot repeat sources and install better systems: scheduled check-ins, shared priorities, response windows, and clearer urgency signals. Fewer drive-bys, fewer pivots, more deep work. Then we turn inward to the squirrel cage, where ideas and impulses hijack momentum. Instead of fighting creativity, we give it a home: a capture list that preserves the spark without blowing up the plan. You can explore later; right now, you execute.We also walk through the Daily Domination Board, a simple Trello or paper setup that helps you commit to a realistic daily limit, move tasks to Done, and earn a reward: no squirrel time until the essentials are complete. That tiny rule rewires motivation and kills the “busy but not done” cycle. To seal it, we share a surprisingly effective bonus: visible do-not-disturb cues. A red headset, a desk sign, or a clear status teaches your environment to respect your focus, especially during morning deep work.If you're tired of scrambling, try this: track curveballs, cage squirrels, protect your best hours, and let systems carry the load. If this helped, subscribe, share it with a friend who's drowning in distractions, and leave a quick review to tell us what you'll implement first.Set the stage for an amazing new year with the Self First Framework.https://calendly.com/jesse04/self-first-webinar Download a PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Behttps://www.depthbuilder.com/books

BT & Sal bring in Hoff to dissect the growing anxiety around Pete Alonso's contract situation, which they argue is becoming a massive distraction that "handcuffs" the Mets' entire offseason. The hosts rail against Scott Boras's perceived playbook, which they believe involves holding out Alonso to maintain leverage, even potentially blocking other Boras clients like Cody Bellinger from signing with the Mets. Sal pushes the Mets to "rewrite the rules" and set a hard deadline, demanding they either sign Alonso or move on quickly to "blow the whole thing up" and execute a smart, aggressive rebuild focused on pitching and reconfiguring the defense. The core question: Can the Mets navigate this drama and make the smart business decisions necessary to finally fix their flawed infrastructure?

Send us a textWhat if the worst day of your life was not a spiritual ambush but a sovereign appointment? We open the book of Job and trace a hard but hopeful line: God permits and sets the limits, Satan merely acts as the instrument, and the purpose is your refinement, not your ruin. That single shift—seeing the Surgeon instead of staring at the scalpel—changes how we pray, endure, and worship when the ground gives way.We walk through Job's opening scene where God commends His servant and grants permission with boundaries, revealing a world ruled by wisdom, not chaos. From there, we tackle a common mistake: attributing to the enemy what God authors for our good. That confusion not only robs us of comfort; it quietly dishonors the Lord. We explore how Proverbs reframes correction as love, why rejoicing in trials is a learned reflex, and how endurance grows when Scripture retrains our instincts. Along the way, we confront performative Christianity—public display without private integrity—and ask whether our devotion holds when applause fades and losses mount.This conversation also zooms out to the state of the modern church. Distractions multiply, easy-believism spreads, and fear-of-the-enemy theology steals attention from the One who actually holds power. Yet hope remains: Christ keeps a people who love the Word, embrace discipline, and refuse to bow to comfort. Real ministry looks like real-time care, honest questions, and a shared commitment to suffer well under God's hand. If your faith has been shaken by hardship, consider this a steadying invitation to trust the God who wounds to heal, tests to prove, and prunes to make you fruitful.If this reframed your view of suffering, share the episode, leave a review, and subscribe so you won't miss what's next. Your story could help someone else find courage when the knife feels closest.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

PREVIEW. US Operations Near Venezuela and Strategic Deception. General Blaine Holt discusses US operations near Venezuela concerning the unacceptable Maduro dictatorship. Holt suggests the highly visible fleet and air power might be a distraction for the regime, which expects a predictable Bay of Pigs-type assault force. President Trump is likely avoiding a "wash, rinse, repeat plan," indicating the "pointy edge of the spear" they are watching is probably not the thing that will get them.

What gets in the way of you getting traction in your efforts to save your marriage? These days, there is one very substantial reason... one thing that keeps you (and many others) from making progress.  And it is only accelerating.  What is it? Distraction. Yep, it absolutely gets in your way, pulling you away from what is most important.  Pulling you away from priorities and opportunities. What is the antidote?  We talk about it in this week's Save The Marriage Podcast.  Listen below. RELATED RESOURCES: Save The Marriage System Save The Marriage Toolkit My Books

In this episode, our pastors explore the vital role of self-discipline in the Christian life and the pursuit of sanctification. Why is self-discipline difficult—even for pastors and leaders? What does the Bible mean by discipline, self-control, and self-denial? And how does God use these to shape us into Christlikeness? Through Scripture, practical analogies, and real-life challenges, the pastors discuss: • Why discipline is essential—not only for leaders, but for every believer • How true self-discipline is rooted in love for God and others • The transformative power of spiritual habits like prayer and Scripture • How discipline produces joy, peace, and spiritual fruit • What to do when you struggle or feel spiritually distracted • How to pursue consistent growth in following Jesus Click here to Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCenfIkvDIJa4Qb4WgsH8hkw?sub_confirmation=1 REDEEMING TRUTH MEDIA: http://redeemingtruthmedia.org/ Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/redeemerbibleaz/ For more information about Redeemer Bible Church in Gilbert, Arizona, or to help support this ministry, please visit us at https://www.redeemeraz.org Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/redeemeraz Follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/redeemeraz Never miss a sermon, find our Redeeming Truth Podcast in your favorite player, and subscribe!

Ron Paul's podcast explores the possible real reasons our government is focused on Venezuela drug trafficking. Maybe this is simply a purposeful distraction from other issues that are not working out so well right now. But maybe a large part of our population really does think it is a good idea to kill possible drug traffickers, in international waters, who may be trying to sell to willing adults in the United States.Clip Used: Trump Administration Planning Panama Style Attack On VenezuelaBy: RonPaulLibertyReportFollow Us:YouTubeTwitterFacebookBlueskyAll audio & videos edited by: Jay Prescott Videography

Neoborn Caveman opens with a satirical reflection on life's mutual interactions and unfulfilled expectations, critiquing government and corporate intrusions—like dynamic pricing scams and AI coercion (e.g., Grok's 'hallucinations')—that undermine sovereignty and privacy. NC condemns Minnesota's teachers' union for promoting early sex education (including incest concerns), spotlights Jim McMurtry's Kafkaesque Canadian case, debunks alien/UFO distractions amid elite war games and military resource exploitation, and explores historical injustices through Proclamation 1625's Irish enslavement under British rule, calling for monarch reparations while drawing parallels to African slavery. He emphasizes inner peace over triggered hate, righteous rage for community defense, ethical stances against fake nudes and porn consumption, and affirming personal worth while encouraging blessings to others.Music guests: Sweet Water, pMad, Neoborn CavemanKey TakeawaysSovereignty requires rejecting corporate and political overreach.Political figures' histories (e.g., Keir Starmer's communist ties) reveal hidden agendas and absurdities.Historical enslavements like the Irish demand truthful acknowledgment and reparations from monarchs.Respecting differences builds stronger communities.Affirmations of worth counter societal pressures.Ethical rants: Stop creating/sharing fake images and consuming porn—it's bad for the soul.Independent thought resists manipulative narratives.Sound Bites"We are always forked over by the government, by the agencies, by the corporations and quite often by each other.""Do you think it's really good to encourage children for incest and other things like in Minnesota?""Keir Double Forking Starmer, you know, the communist camp lover.""King James I had this proclamation, ordering the Irish be placed in bondage.""The Irish and African slaves were housed together and were forced to mate.""Everybody's talking about reparations.

Week two of our “How We Run” series (Hebrews 12:1–3). Pastor Charlie unpacks the difference between weights that slow us and sins that take us down—and why the Christian life is about traveling lighter so we can run longer. Through stories (marathons, ultralight backpacking, a “brick” phone limiter), we name three common cultural weights—consumption, comparison, and anxiety—and hear a clear call to move from might to must: lay aside what entangles, and fix our eyes on Jesus. The message ends with three reflection questions: What do I need to say no to so I can say yes to God? What sin am I putting to death so I can truly live? Who will I tell so I don't run alone?

We live in a distracting world, but sometimes distractions are a good thing. Every so often, God interrupts our routines so we can experience something new and greater. In today's message pastor James Pelias of Encounter Church (Swift Current, SK) reminds us that God will invade our world when we least expect it, and teaches us how to spot these “Divine Distractions.” -- GIVE: Visit www.connectcalgary.ca/give to help share #LifeOverflowing across Canada.

Chad walks us through Ephesian 6:10-12, speaking about the enemies plan to tempt; discourage' and distract you from becoming who god created you to be.

“Let your eyes look directly ahead And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you” (Proverbs 4:25).

He has written 14 books or so, including Philosophy in the Garden, Distraction, and On Getting Off: Sex and Philosophy. He has also edited a couple of books on philosophy and martial arts, such as Engagement: Philosophy and the Martial Arts, and Martial Arts and Philosophy: Beating and Nothingness, perhaps my favourite title. His latest work is Immortal Gestures, Journeys in the Unspoken.

Unfortunately for Damon, he's not doing a lot of sword swinging at the moment because of an as yet unidentified issue with his arms. We discuss how he might get this issue sorted – which may involve flying to Helsinki – and how it can be tricky to prioritise your own health over other priorities and difficult life stuff. We also revisit the definition of a sword. What is a sword? When is a sword-like object not a sword? Damon's new book is about gestures, and we talk about the weird politeness of a salute or a bow that's absolutely essential before you try and murder someone with a kilo of sharp steel. A gesture can be an important symbol of trust and respect, and this courtesy separates martial arts or duels from a more bestial act or something a commoner might do. Our conversation goes off in several tangents, discussing whether philosophy is a scam, pens, getting rid of stuff, cataloguing your book collection, notebooks and the history of sticking two fingers up to the French.

Charlotte Foster, royal reporter for the Daily Mirror, tells Jennifer Newton how two weeks of scandal for the former Duke of York is enough to fill a year of news. They discuss Prince Andrew and Fergie's uncertain status at the Royal Lodge, and the distraction from work of other members of the Royal Family. Jennifer and Charlotte also look at the King's “moving and emotional” visit to the Vatican with Queen Camilla, where they met Pope Leo XIV for the first time. Alongside the family dramas and historic visits, the Pod Save the King duo also discuss Harry and Megan's “date night” at an LA Dodgers game, and the Duke of Sussex's “cringe and awkward” appearance on comedian Hasan Minhaj's podcast.

In this episode, Ashleigh and Rachel have an impromptu mental health chat, talking about their own personal struggles and ways in which we can all face our challenges head on rather than looking for ways to numb or distract ourselves.

After all, most of us are working on our health so we can enjoy life to the fullest. And also, to lighten the mood, they talk Halloween costumes.

Brown, acclaimed ADHD coach and creator of the ADD Crusher program, for a candid and practical conversation about the everyday habits that make ADHD more challenging. Focusing on making ADHD easier to manage (and avoiding the traps we so often fall into), Diann and Alan break down what really sabotages our brains and share actionable tools to turn things around.Alan shares practical tips and science-backed insights on why sugar and simple carbs can sabotage focus, how movement (not just "exercise") is essential for managing ADHD, and why consistent sleep hygiene is often the missing link for better mental clarity. They also get real about the seductive pull of screens, the pitfalls of "revenge bedtime procrastination," and how to set up healthier habits even if you struggle with planning ahead.Episode Overview & Key TopicsWhy Sugar and Simple Carbs Are So Tempting (and Toxic)The neuroscience of sugar, dopamine, and ADHD brainsWhy people with ADHD reach for snacks more oftenPortable proteins, smart snacks, and what to keep out of your pantryThe "Immediate Gratification" TrapHow impulsivity and habit shape eating and lifestyle choicesSimple prepping strategies for making healthier choices easierExercise Without the PressureHow movement supports the ADHD brain (hint: it's more than fitness!)The real benefits: BDNF (“Miracle-Gro for the brain”), focus, and moodHow to start (or restart) with what you're “willing” and “able” to doThe Underrated Power of SleepHow sleep deprivation mimics ADHD and worsens executive functionThe role of “revenge bedtime procrastination” and the “second wind” Huberman Lab-inspired tips for honoring circadian rhythm and better restScreen Sucking & The Modern ADHD SaboteurHow screens (phones, apps, streaming) are addictive false friendsThe myth of “restful scrolling” and how screens prevent true breaksGuilt-free social media windows and restorative breaksQuick Self-Check: Alan's One-Simple-Step ApproachRate yourself in three key areas: diet, sleep, and exercise (scale of 0–10)Identify your lowest score and add ONE actionable change Use sticky notes and gentle accountability to turn intention into habitsGuest Bio: Alan P. BrownAlan P. Brown created the award-winning ADD Crusher™ video program for ADHD teens/adults. Undiagnosed for decades, his untreated ADHD manifested in underachievement, substance abuse, and worse. Once diagnosed, he found it difficult to learn coping strategies from books, so he researched his own evidence-based “brain hack” strategies to fuel a successful advertising career and two start-ups. In addition to his successful coaching program, Alan is also a best-selling author and a conference and TEDx speaker.
