Iran invents another cheap drone. America invents a cheaper way to kill it. Iran puts another missile on a truck. America finds the truck. Iran hides a command center. America finds the command center. Iran threatens another ship. America watches the ship. That's the game. And the Left keeps looking at one weapon system at a time. Trump is looking at the entire chessboard. THERE WAS NEVER A PIVOT This is the part I want you to remember. The media says: "Trump is pivoting away from war toward economics." No. Trump is using economics as part of the war. That's what they don't understand. Trump restored maximum pressure on Iran in 2025 specifically to deny the regime revenue and choke off the resources supporting its nuclear program, missile program and terrorist proxies. (The White House) And now the military pressure has made the economic pressure more powerful. That's not a pivot. Kevin Jackson has been called, the "white-collar" Joe Rogan. Given their similar backgrounds in TV, comedy, and martial arts, it's easy to see why people enjoy Kevin's show so much. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Did you know that Katie has a 'doom pile'? She explains what it is and how it can spiral out of control.

Perversions of Science (1997) Episode 1 Dream of Doom

Fr. Mike introduces us to the prophet Jeremiah, who is also known as the Prophet of Doom and the Weeping Prophet. He explains what makes Jeremiah different than the other prophets, and encourages us to cling closely to him as we hear about his difficult call. Today's readings are Jeremiah 1, Ezekiel 27, and Proverbs 14:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

What if the biggest problem in your relationships isn't what you're saying—but the fact that the other person hears it completely differently? Licensed therapist and author Jason VanRuler joins Ginny to talk about his new book, Discovering Your Communication Type, and the five communication styles—Peacemaker, Advocate, Thinker, Harbor, and Spark—that shape how we connect, handle conflict, and respond under pressure. Jason explains why great communication is often more about listening than speaking, why vulnerability gives others the opportunity to love us well, and how childhood experiences can shape the way we approach hard conversations. They also unpack the “Three Ds of Doom”—distraction, defensiveness, and dismissal—and why defensiveness often comes from confusing our mistakes with our identity. Ginny shares a deeply personal story about broken relationships and a difficult apology, leading to one of Jason's most powerful pieces of advice: when you've hurt someone, resist the urge to immediately explain yourself. From marriage and friendship to parenting adult children, this conversation is packed with practical ways to communicate better, repair relationships, and help the people we love feel truly heard.

Erick walks through a sobering Washington Post editorial on America's fiscal reckoning: with Social Security projected insolvent by 2032 and the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund by 2033, demographics and mandatory spending are driving the country toward a debt cliff that no war or recession created. He revisits Mitch McConnell's “we will not fix it […]

Doom's gore-fueled Hell was one of those games Tipper Gore woke up in cold sweats dreaming about in the 90s when they were all about censoring things for the good of the children. The story of Doom was initially a bit light on the ground (of Mars), being mostly just a vehicle for good ol fashioned wanton violence. But there have been so many entries in the series that now that Doom has several different alternate timelines worth of story. Joe and Matt rip and tear their way through the lore of Doom, from the early days through the Dark Ages and beyond.Oh, and Isabelle from Animal Crossing and Doomguy are married. It's canon now.

Curious about the future of radiology economics? Richard E. Heller III, MD, MBA speaks with co-hosts Sherry S. Wang, MBBS, and Surbhi Raichandani, MD, to discuss radiology economics, from the basics to the niche and what is up ahead. Listen to their discussion in episode 2 of Difficult Conversations, an AJR Podcast Series. Full article: https://www.ajronline.org/doi/10.2214/AJR.26.35690 *Key Takeaways The Efficiency Fallacy: CMS recently implemented a 2.5% efficiency reduction to work relative value units, assuming that technology makes reading scans faster. However, modern multiplanar CTs contain thousands of images which can slow down down interpretation times. The No Surprises Act and Ghost Rates: While designed to protect patients from unexpected out-of-network bills, poor implementation allows insurers to use "ghost rates," which are contracted rates for never-billed services, to artificially lower the Qualifying Payment Amount and force rate reductions on practices. Advocacy is Essential: Radiologists serve as the nexus of the hospital. If the specialty does not demonstrate its downstream value, such as avoiding unnecessary surgeries and shortening hospital stays, business-minded policymakers will continue to treat it as a high-cost expense center to be cut. *Chapters  0:00 - Welcome 1:12 - Future Outlook For Radiology 2:27 -  How Radiologists Generate Revenue 3:09 - RVUs Conversion Factor Basics 4:30 - MIPS And Payment Adjustments 5:59 - Revenue Versus Paycheck 7:22 - Medicare Fee Schedule Trends 8:53 - Efficiency Adjustment Debate 12:50 - How CMS Sets The Rules 14:24 - Comment Letters And Advocacy 17:16 - Medicare As System Benchmark 19:09 - Commercial Insurer Headaches 21:21 - Steerage And Pediatric Risks 22:57 - No Surprises Act Explained 27:59 - Arbitration And Implementation Issues 29:10 - Radiology as Nexus 30:16 - Proving Downstream Value 31:34 - Total Value Equation 33:44 - RVUs and Complexity 36:53 - Fixing Incentives 46:04 - AI as Capacity Booster 49:01 - Will AI Cut Pay 50:12 - Teleradiology Done Right 54:30 - Radiology in 10 Years 57:53 - Optimism and Call to Action Follow AJR on Social Media LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/ajr-radiology/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfFAYezkLMxJGMgIJLN0Dpg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ajr_radiology/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ajr_radiology X: https://x.com/AJR_Radiology BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/ajrradiology.bsky.social Threads: https://www.threads.com/@ajr_radiology *These sections were generated using artificial intelligence (Descript and Google Gemini) and then reviewed for accuracy.

Doomwar is a 2010 miniseries in which Dr. Doom sponsors a coup in Wakanda in order to get his hands on all the country's processed vibranium. As we continue to celebrate 60 years of the Black Panther, Tim is joined by Professor Alan, whose Doomspeak podcast celebrates Dr. Doom, a character who will be cinematically very relevant in a few short months! With writing by Jonathan Maberry and art by Scot Eaton, Doomwar is a series that raises a number of questions, whether in the text itself or simply in the minds of reviewers: In what circumstances is a violent response justified? How violent? Should superhero comics, which run on their own progression of time, bring in real-life U.S. Presidents and significant events? While an issue cover with a spoiler may be justified for marketing that issue, should it really be included in the trade?

Is a lack of motivation a personality flaw, or a signal from your brain that something needs attention? We tend to think brain decline begins with memory loss, but changes in motivation, behavior, attention, and decision-making can show up much earlier. Apathy can look like laziness. Poor sleep can feel like memory loss. Doom scrolling gets blamed on dopamine, even though the science does not support many of the claims people repeat online. And the habits we rely on for brain health are often based more on trends than evidence. This matters because your brain is constantly deciding whether a reward is worth the effort. When that calculation becomes harder, doing even simple things can feel overwhelming. Understanding how motivation works can help you reduce friction, take action before you feel ready, build routines that support your brain, and pay closer attention to changes in yourself or someone you love. Purpose matters. Curiosity matters. Relationships matter. And movement may be one of the most effective tools we have for protecting cognitive health. Dr. Masud Husain is one of the world's leading neurologists studying memory, motivation, attention, and cognitive decline. He is a professor of neurology at Oxford University, co-leads Dementia Research at Oxford University, and serves as editor-in-chief of Brain, one of the most respected journals in neurology. He is also the author of Our Brains, Ourselves, which explores how the brain shapes our behavior, identity, relationships, and sense of self. What's Discussed: (06:01) Why losing motivation can appear before memory problems and signal early cognitive decline. (08:07) How apathy differs from depression, even when the behavior looks almost identical. (12:14) What two tiny strokes revealed about the brain circuit responsible for motivation. (20:55) How purpose, curiosity, and strong relationships help protect the aging brain. (22:23) Why unmotivated people may use more brain energy deciding whether something is worth the effort. (24:54) What dopamine actually does and why it is not the brain's pleasure chemical. (26:31) Why the idea that social media gives you constant dopamine hits is not supported by evidence. (34:50) Whether Alzheimer's can be reversed and what current treatments can realistically accomplish. (45:17) How breaking tasks into smaller steps, starting before you feel ready, and building routines can create motivation. (57:12) Whether relying on AI is making our brains lazier and changing how we think. (01:01:36) How loneliness and isolation affect cognitive performance and long-term brain health. (01:07:22) How poor sleep, anxiety, and low mood can create memory problems that feel like dementia.   Thank You to Our Sponsors!

Kristian Harloff breaks down the biggest movie news stories of the day, led by major Avengers: Doomsday updates as advance ticket sales begin generating huge buzz. With Marvel Studios preparing for its next massive Avengers event, Kristian discusses the early pre-sale numbers, the latest comments from the Russo Brothers, and whether Avengers: Doomsday could become another record-breaking MCU blockbuster. Plus, new reports raise questions about Marvel Studios' highly anticipated X-Men reboot as Charles Melton may no longer be in the running to play Hank McCoy/Beast. What does this mean for Marvel's new X-Men cast, and could a major announcement still be coming soon? The show also covers the first reactions to The End of Oak Street, with early viewers claiming the film finally "makes dinosaurs scary again," and Samara Weaving officially joins the growing cast of the live-action Legend of Zelda movie. Today's show is headlined by Avengers: Doomsday as anticipation continues to build for Marvel Studios' next massive crossover. Kristian looks at the early ticket sales and discusses whether the combination of Doctor Doom, the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and returning MCU characters could push Doomsday toward historic box office numbers. We also dive into the constantly evolving X-Men casting rumors, the surprisingly strong early buzz surrounding The End of Oak Street, and the latest addition to Nintendo's highly anticipated Legend of Zelda adaptation. If you're a fan of Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel Studios, X-Men, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr., Beast, The Legend of Zelda, or the latest movie news, this episode is for you. #AvengersDoomsday #Avengers #Marvel #MarvelStudios #MCU #DoctorDoom #RobertDowneyJr #XMen #Beast #CharlesMelton #LegendOfZelda #SamaraWeaving #TheEndOfOakStreet #MovieNews #BoxOffice #KristianHarloffShow #EntertainmentNews SPONSOR: Ka'Chava:  Go to https://kachava.com and use code KRISTIAN for 15% off your first order.

SED News is a monthly podcast from Software Engineering Daily where hosts Gregor Vand and Sean Falconer break down the biggest stories shaping software engineering, Silicon Valley, and the broader tech industry. In this episode, Gregor and Sean dig into a wave of “runaway AI” stories, including Anthropic and OpenAI disclosing that their models accessed outside organizations during cyber evaluations, and Amazon reporting a staggering budget overrun blamed on bad agent loops. They explore why most of these incidents trace back to human decisions rather than models breaking free, and the awkward reality that today’s systems can bill you for tokens without reliably counting them. They also talk about the “Kimi moment.” Moonshot AI‘s open weight model has closed the gap with frontier models like ChatGPT and Claude at a remarkable pace, and the hosts unpack what it means for open weight strategies and how chip scarcity is pushing Chinese labs to innovate. As always, the episode wraps up with a few standout Hacker News threads, including a JetBrains test of a “caveman speak” skill that promised big token savings, how refactoring can cut input token costs, the release of CodePen 2.0, and a build of Doom that renders through SQL queries.Sponsorship inquiries:sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com The post SED News: The Kimi Moment, Runaway AI, and Tokenmaxxing appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

Stephen Moss, Part Two: Moss explores the Raven, a bird of deep mythology and intelligence, appearing in Norselegends as Odin's messengers and in modern culture like Game of Thrones. Though often seen as harbingers of doom in works by Shakespeare and Poe, Ravens are highly adaptable and have successfully recolonized urban areas. The narrative shifts to the Cormorant, whose guano fueled a 19th-century fertilizer boom that enriched businessmen while exploiting Chinese indentured laborers. This led to synthetic fertilizers, which Moss argues have caused a decline in farmland birds like the Gray Partridge and Skylark. A tragic highlight is Mao Zedong's campaign against the Tree Sparrow, which triggered a massive insect population boom and a famine killing up to 50 million people. Moss also recounts the "Emu War," where the Emu successfully evaded the Australian army's machine guns. The Snowy Egret's near-extinction due to the fashion industry's demand for plumes is credited with sparking the founding of the Audubon Society by women activists. Finally, the Emperor Penguin is presented as a modern "miner's canary," signaling the urgent threat of the climate crisis to global biodiversity. (2)

Si is joined by Jonathan and Ordy this week to start really looking at the season ahead and how expectations are shaping up for the new manager and squad. Is it just pure excitement with a new manager, players and a bit of unknown or are there legitimate causes for concern as displayed by some national media? Winning Jaissle's first game in Valencia - a good start or just a training exercise? What are the absolute essentials still needed by the end of the month to give him the best chance this season? And we have an early look at what we think is a realistic expectation of the manager for the season ahead (assuming we get business done!)

Stop looking for the deposit. 3 signs God is elevating you financially, from a Christian lender who sees this every week.Most Christians assume the first sign of elevation is a deposit in the account. It is not. The first signs are quiet shifts in your character that you have probably not connected to God yet. You have been begging God for a financial breakthrough for months, maybe years, and you have not noticed that He has been answering the whole time. Just not the way you expected.I am recording this one from inside my own storm. I am watching all three of these signs show up in my own life right now, and I am not standing over anyone. I am standing next to you.After years of doing loans for Christians, I can tell you there are three quiet signs God gives you right before the elevation shows up in your account. And most people miss all three because they are watching for the wrong thing. God prepares the vessel before He pours the blessing, and every one of these signs is how you know the preparation is in motion.What we cover:Sign One: Your old lifestyle habits stop being satisfying. You walk through Target and put things back on the shelf. The car you always wanted stops looking as good on the lot. Doom scrolling stops giving you the dopamine hit. This is not you being disciplined. This is God changing your appetite.Sign Two: You get drawn to help people in situations you used to be in. You find yourself sending long text messages to friends going through what you already survived. You take calls that do not pay you because they need to be taken. This is not you being generous. This is God building the platform before He puts you on it.Sign Three: You start seeing money problems as spiritual problems. The old prayer sounds like "God, please fix my finances." The new prayer sounds like "God, please change me so You can trust me with the finances I am asking for." That shift is the moment elevation is closer than you think.Scriptures referenced:Ecclesiastes 5:10, 2 Corinthians 1:4, Romans 12:2The three signs God is elevating you financially are not the ones you are looking for. You are looking for the deposit. God is watching the character. If your appetite for the wrong things is fading, if you are being drawn to help people you used to walk past, and if you are starting to see your money problems as spiritual problems, God is not delaying your breakthrough. He is finishing your preparation.If this episode hit you, the last episode covers the three mistakes that will block the breakthrough if you keep doing them.

Peter Zeihan, a geopolitical analyst, predicts that the globally integrated just-in-time world trade that we've all become accustomed to (for the past 80 years), will devolve into regional (and less connected) trading blocks. Mic, Brian, and Jeff look at three ramifications that the average American might face, if Zeihan is right. One, is pharmaceuticals. China produces 90% of the world's Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients. What happens when that source is cut off, or severely restricted? A second sector is food. While the US can produce most of its food needs, much is imported. Does what you like to eat come from overseas?

In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, Jason and Sarah Hull break down one of the most expensive mistakes property management business owners make: hiring based solely on what the business appears to need instead of what the owner actually needs. They explain why this common approach leaves entrepreneurs overwhelmed, wearing the wrong hats, and trapped inside businesses they no longer enjoy running.  You'll learn how a simple time study can reveal where your energy, focus, and profitability are being lost, why every new hire should solve both a business problem and an owner problem, and how reallocating your time toward high-value activities creates sustainable growth.   You'll Learn [00:00] Why Most Property Managers Hire the Wrong Way [03:18] The Hidden Cost of Bad Hiring Decisions [08:25] Using a Time Study to Find Your Next Hire [13:05] Balancing Your Needs With the Business's Needs [18:12] Why Every Business Owner Needs an Assistant [22:20] Stop Doing Low-Value Work [26:15] Freeing Yourself to Focus on Revenue Growth [29:10] Building a Team That Creates Freedom Quotables "One bad hiring mistake is usually a 10 grand minimum mistake."

Jason Hull  "The point of having a business is you should get more fulfillment, more freedom, more contribution, more support." Jason Hull Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:00) Okay, we are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGro, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGro, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses.   We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now, let's get into the show. All right. So today's topic, we're going to talk about how to make the decision as a property management business owner to hire. How to effectively decide it's time to hire and how not to screw this up. So we're not going to get into the whole hiring process. We've talked about that a bit on some other   Episodes. If you'd like to hear more about that, reach out to us or check out our other episodes. But today we're going to talk about how to make the right decision of who to get and when to hire and who you need in the business. Cool.   one bad hiring mistake is usually a 10 grand minimum mistake. And anybody that's gone through hiring a lot of team members, you know. Like I've hired lots over the years, and it's been some of them can be pretty painful when you make a bad move. So you want to make sure you make good decisions. So   So here's how most people do it, which is wrong. How most people do it is they look, what does the business need? And they're like, the business needs a maintenance coordinator, or the business needs this. And they just continually keep giving the business what it needs. And so this I call kind of the solopreneur way of hiring hiring. They think the way a solopreneur thinks, they think I do everything. Now I need to hire somebody to do these other pieces that the business needs. And they start building a team based around.   What the business wants.   every team member, should exist if they are taking something off of your plate because you do everything initially. Now, sort of, they're like, well, you know, I'm doing the maintenance stuff, so I need a maintenance coordinator. And that's kind of works. But the problem is if you continually build your team based on what the business seems to be asking for and what it needs, and you're not taking care of yourself, you end up with an entire team.   And you're still miserable in your own business. And this is pretty much most business owners at NARPAM. This is most of the people in the two to 400 door range. So I'm calling you out. So if you are a member of NARPAM and you have between two to 400 units and you are still wearing hats you don't enjoy in your business, I promise you you have the wrong team. Why? Because I know for a fact you cannot build the right team around the wrong person. And so if you're still wearing hats you don't enjoy,   Meaning you are showing up as the wrong person in the business, doing stuff that you don't like doing, that's not your favorite thing, and you've built an entire team around you, you have the wrong team. All right. So how do we fix this? Well, first you have to know that that is your case. So sometimes you talk to people and they have no idea. They don't realize. They go, no, I have a great team. My team is awesome. I I really   So it's hard to fix a problem if you don't recognize that it's the problem. It's almost like when you have a plumbing leak. It's hard to fix that leak if you're not sure where the leak is coming from. So we need to identify where the issue is and then rip the walls open. If we just start ripping the walls open and looking for the leak, it's   just   pretty expensive and inefficient. So we need to recognize, hey, there's a problem leak here. And then we need to identify where is the leak and what is the actual problem. So I'd say that's the very first thing. And sometimes that's also really hard for people to do. Especially when they're attached to their teams. Like, no, I love my team. How many times have we heard that? I love my team. I have to my team's great. Yeah. Mm-hmm. So but they might be great. You might have great people, but they are not   Your ideal team because you're still involved in stuff. So usually what we do is we have them do a time study. This is how we figure out five different currencies: time, energy, focus, cash, and effort. These are the five things that you have to invest in the business that the business has to invest. These are your resources and   In order to hire a new team member or bring somebody else in, you have to make sure that if you're going to reallocate these resources, you've got to do it in a way that's really effective. Otherwise, this could be dangerous. So a lot of times I'll share the analogy so people understand how important this is. if you've ever seen Indiana Jones in the Temple of Doom, Indiana Jones, he's running from this giant boulder. He's carrying this gold statue. He's trying to like   Get out of there, and this boulder's rolling down the hill at him, and he's trying to get out of there as quick as possible. Otherwise, squish, Indiana dies, right? So, this is a great analogy for business. So here's how I look at this. Imagine this picture. There is an entrepreneur running from the boulder. What is the boulder? Expenses. It's always moving, it's always coming after you. And sometimes that boulder picks up speed or grows as the business grows.   And so that's expenses. Indiana Jones running, that's sales and revenue generation and generating cash like for the business. The gap in between Indiana Jones running and the boulder, which is expenses, is cash flow. If the business runs out of cash flow, the business is essentially dead. The business dies. Or it goes into debt, which it's just eventually going to die. So we want to make sure that we are.   Constantly generating revenue. The speed, the slope of this path is the speed of which the business grows. And so if we want to grow really fast, we spend a lot more money. There's a lot more expenses. Everything's moving a lot faster.   And so this is where hiring can cause some big problems, or rolling out new tech can cause big problems because we get distracted and we're no longer focused on revenue generation and that has to stay the main thing. So you've got to keep running and you can't stop and unless you're able to somehow dramatically reduce expenses. So it slows down or it's less scary. But you've got to keep running. So we do a time study, and this helps us figure out time, energy, focus, cash, and effort.   Where am I currently investing all this? And is it giving me what I want? Is this according to my highest priorities and what I need? So this is the lens we look at for you. So imagine a Venn diagram with two circles. Circle on the left is you. Circle on the right is the business. Most entrepreneurs build their team, build their systems, build the business, only focusing on the business. And so they end up neglected and they end up more and more miserable. And they end up with a business that becomes like almost like a   master to them. You're like a slave. If you ever felt like a waking up and you're a slave to your own business, you've put too much attention on the business and not enough on yourself.   What happens if your expenses catch up to Indiana Jones? Squished. Right? He gets squished. And as a business owner, it's not a great thing to feel squished. But there is something that probably should be squished. And that's pests. Yuck. So moving into a new place is exciting, but setting up utilities, that's a big pest, isn't it? Yep.   That's where Utility Profit comes in. It's a free tool that property managers share with their tenants during move-in, and it completely takes a headache out of getting the utilities set up. So it's less stressful for you and for them. So here's how it works: tenants get a personalized page with their utility options that are already mapped out for their specific address. Things like internet, electric, gas, you name it, they pick what they need, they set everything up, and it's all in one place.   No Googling, no back and forth with landlords saying, hey, who's the electric company here again? Never heard that one. And for property managers, it's white labeled, so it feels like part of your own onboarding process. You get notified once your tenants' utilities are set up. It's one less thing for you to follow up on on your probably never-ending list of things to follow up on. It's completely free for everyone. There's no contracts and it takes only minutes to get started. So check out   Utility Profit because movement day should feel like a win, not a checklist nightmare with a big pest. Perfect. All right. Thanks to Utility Profit for sponsoring today's episode. All right. And check them out at DorGro Live. That's coming up in October. Yeah. In Austin, the ninth and tenth. So if you're interested in checking out Utility Profit, you can just do a quick search. They should come right up, Utility Profit, or you can see them at   Dorboro Live. Okay. So getting back to what we were just chatting about, Venn diagram, you, the business, we need to shift the attention to you. We have to make sure every new hire is taking something off of your plate because you are doing everything in the business in the beginning. And so if you do a time study, you'll be able to see where am I investing time? What is that time worth financially? Where is my focus currently? Is this helping me reach my goals?   And then we look through a lens for the business, which is the six core functions, which is lead gen, nurture, conversion, delivery, lifetime value, and financial. And so then we're looking what does the business need most? So what does the business need most and what do you need most? And the overlap is where you make your best decisions. So every team member should be born out of a time study.   Basically, when we have our clients do a time study, one of the big factors is energy. It's like, is this a plus sign for you or a minus sign? Does it give you life or energy, or is it taking it away? And if it is a minus sign, we need to find somebody that this would be a plus sign for them and bring them in. And so you're able to give your minus signs to somebody else that enjoys doing it. And this is how we free you up from the business and how we make sure we're hiring somebody that makes sense. And this person   should be helping the business improve your cash flow situation, which means if you're the revenue generator, you're the salesperson or you are your own BDM, that means we're freeing up your time doing minus signs that are also financially draining and getting you to spend time doing revenue generating activities. And that's a really awesome trade. You're basically trading and giving up a little bit of money to go be able to make more money.   And then it's a smart decision to make because that's what the business maybe needs as well, is more lead gen, more nurture, conversion. Those first three functions are sales. So this is how we make the decision to hire. So every new hire, I think, should be born out of a time study. Every new tech or new system you roll out should be born out of a time study. Because otherwise you're just adding expense, you're just adding stuff, you're just adding people, and it's not actually giving you more fulfillment, more freedom, more contribution.   More support. And this is the point of having a business is you should get more of what I call the four reasons:   Usually the first person that we recommend that people hire is what? An assistant. Which is wild because a lot of times we'll see a business owner with an entire team and what don't they have? An assistant. And sometimes they'll even have team members. Yeah and he doesn't have an assistant. And I went, Ew, why? What's what's really funny is a lot of times as business owners, because we're hiring and getting what the business needs and not taking care of ourselves.   We will even see team members that have assistance. we have a property manager and an assistant property manager. And yet the business owner is still involved in a lot of things and doing really low level financially ineffective tasks that are like low level, that your time probably as a business owner should be calculated based on what the top line revenue of the company is, divided by like 40 hours a week, divided by, you know.   50 weeks in the year. So basically divide it by 2000, your your annual revenue. That's what your hourly rate should be sort of judged by. And so, you know, if you're a million-dollar business owner, your hourly rate is like probably like 500 bucks an hour or something like this. And you might as well just double it, just for perspective. But you the goal is to get you to a place where you are worth that amount of money. And you're not doing five dollar an hour tasks that maybe or even less that maybe AI could do.   Maybe $10 an hour tasks that a good VA in a foreign country could do that's really seasoned. Maybe $20, $25 an hour tasks that a decent US-based team member could do. And so you want to make sure that you are doing stuff that makes sense for your business. Otherwise, you are losing money.   it's it's hard to argue when you go, Well, you're spending 70% of your time doing tasks that cost twenty dollars or less. And then they go, it's kind of hard to argue with that. Then it starts to become very, very clear that yeah, we need to make some shifts in the business. Yeah. If if I ever hear hear a business owner and I ask, Who's your main salesperson? Who does the business development? And they're like, That's me.   Cool, what are you spending most of your time doing? If they don't say that thing, there's a problem. Because sales is the lifeblood of the business. They're like, I want to grow. Cool. Who's your salesperson? Me. Cool. What are you spending your time doing? Maintenance, coordination, leasing, inspections, well, like posting notices. Cool. So if you're great at doing sales or you have a team member that's great at doing sales, your whole job is to free up that person's time. If it's you, free up your time.   To allow you to spend more time doing sales. Otherwise, that's kinda like buying a Ferrari, paying for it, and then you're using it to plow a field, as I usually say. That does not make sense. It doesn't make sense at all. Literally does not make financial sense.   All right. Cool. So that's today's episode.

Comic-Con 2026 has proven to be a standout event, particularly for Marvel and its competitors, as they unveiled thrilling new projects that promise to captivate fans. Let's dive into what made this Comic-Con unforgettable! Marvel Takes Center Stage Marvel absolutely dominated Comic-Con 2026, showcasing their upcoming projects with excitement and flair. One of the most talked-about announcements was Ryan Gosling’s role as Ghost Rider. This unexpected casting choice has fans buzzing, as Gosling’s range as an actor could bring a fresh take on the iconic character. His ability to convey both depth and intensity might just make him the perfect fit for Johnny Blaze. Why Ghost Rider Matters Ghost Rider has historically been a challenging character to adapt, with past attempts falling flat. However, Marvel’s current trajectory suggests they are ready to tackle this supernatural hero with the seriousness it deserves. The involvement of director Sean Levy, known for his work on Deadpool, adds an extra layer of confidence to this project. With Marvel expanding its supernatural universe, Ghost Rider could become a pivotal character alongside titles like Moon Knight and Blade. The Avengers Assemble Again Marvel also revealed extended footage from the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday. While details remain under wraps, early reactions suggest that Doctor Doom will emerge as a formidable villain, and fans are eager to see how the X-Men will integrate into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Notably, Peggy Carter's return and Deadpool's surprise appearance during the presentation left audiences electrified, proving that Marvel knows how to create memorable moments that resonate with fans. DC Strikes Back While Marvel stole the spotlight, DC made significant strides with their presentation of the Lanterns series. This new direction appears to focus on mystery and character development, moving away from the big-budget spectacles that have defined past DC films. By exploring a detective story featuring Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and Jon Stewart, DC seems poised to offer a fresh perspective that could redefine its cinematic universe. The Importance of a Strong Narrative This approach signifies a shift in DC’s strategy, emphasizing storytelling over spectacle. By leaning into character-driven narratives, DC might finally capture the essence of what makes their heroes compelling. The potential for rich storytelling in the Lanterns series could set a new standard for future DC projects. Apple TV Plus Emerges as a Sci-Fi Contender Apple TV Plus has quietly become a contender in the science fiction genre, showcasing series like Foundation, Silo, and the newly announced Necromancer. This platform’s commitment to intelligent storytelling is commendable, as they invest in unique narratives rather than relying solely on existing franchises. Necromancer, in particular, has garnered attention for its long-awaited adaptation of a beloved cyberpunk classic, raising expectations for high-quality content. The Future of Sci-Fi As we look ahead, the success of these franchises suggests a promising future for science fiction in film and television. With increased competition among studios, fans can expect more innovative storytelling and diverse genres. The combination of established IPs and fresh ideas is bound to lead to exciting developments, ensuring that Comic-Con continues to be a launching pad for the next big hits in pop culture. Conclusion San Diego Comic-Con 2026 was a whirlwind of excitement, showcasing the best of what's to come in the realms of sci-fi and superhero storytelling. With Marvel leading the charge and DC reimagining its approach, fans have much to look forward to in the coming years. Whether you're a die-hard superhero fan or a casual viewer, there's something for everyone to be excited about. Share your favorite moments from Comic-Con with us, and stay tuned for future updates!
