Sometimes it's hard to face our fears. If we do that means we can't avoid nor deny their existence. Yet, if we don't face our fears they will continue to stalk our minds, weigh heavy on our hearts, and make us ineffective in the faith. How do we F-A-C-E our fears? F – Focus our thoughts on God's promises not our fears.“For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory.” (2 Corinthians 1:20) When fear creeps into our minds, then we remind ourselves of God's promise to hear our prayers and answer according to His will. A – Accept that greater is God within us than all of the evil in the world.“Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4) When fear of this world attempts to overtake our hearts, we can breathe in peace because God is in control and He will be with us. C – Choose to believe God's word in faith in spite of our circumstances.“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” (Romans 1:17) When fear paralyzes our ability to move forward, we step out in faith—not seeing with our eyes, but knowing in our hearts that God will take care of us. E – Expect God to show up in His perfect timing and way.“What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”—the things God has prepared for those who love him.” (1 Corinthians 2:9) When fear tempts us to doubt God's goodness and grace, the Holy Spirit within us will lead us into all truth. Prayer Dear Lord, strengthen my faith so that I can face my fears and move forward. In Jesus' name, amen.
In our final episode of Season 17, Dr. Kerry Burnight offers listeners a chance to examine ageism through their own attitudes toward aging and her perspective on how the field of gerontology has shifted in the last few decades. Gerontologist, professor, researcher, podcaster, and writer, Dr. Burnight is “America's Gerontologist,” and provides relatable, digestible, and humor-filled insights on aging through articulating six core principles that support individuals to age well. About Kerry Dr. Kerry Burnight is a gerontologist on a mission to make older better. She served as a Professor of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology at the University of California, Irvine for 17 years. She is the co-founder of the nation's first Elder Abuse Forensic Center, where her team of law enforcement officers, physicians, attorneys, and social workers have served over 2000 older adults. Her research focuses on the two ends of the spectrum of the aging experience: wellness and purpose at the one end and loneliness and elder abuse at the other end. As a society, and as individuals, there is so much we can do to improve older lives. Burnight founded the national non-profit Ageless Alliance and serves on executive advisory boards for companies innovating in the aging space. She is currently writing a book and was recognized for her work by the U.S. Department of Justice and has appeared on the Dr. Phil Show, The Doctors, Money Matters, and Headline News. Key Takeaways Our health spans are a key component of aging, and there's lots of variability among the adult population. “Othering” older people is harmful. We are, as a society, starting to acknowledge that intergenerational connection is both necessary to our health and is an antidote to ageism. Getting older is inevitable, growing older is not. It takes effort to continually grow and you have to think about what kind of older person you want to be and what will it require to get there. We are all – at least – somewhat ageist. Internalized ageism is really dangerous. We must start looking at our own ageist thoughts, feelings, and actions. Six Principles of Aging: A: Acceptance (Accept Yourself) B: Be that Friend (the one who brings over soup, gives the best hug.) C: Challenge Yourself D: Decide to Give (Recognize what you have to give, and give it.) E: Educate to Navigate (Learn about resources to help you navigate your aging journey) F: Focus on Interdependence (Humans are naturally interdependent; don't silo yourself, especially as you age!)
Pastor Josh wraps up the semester long journey of understanding the various attributes of God by reminding us what understanding is all unto worshipping God in spirit and in truth. He discusses the difference between True seeking and False seeking of God's face, and he introduces an acronym to better understand what it means to seek God's face. F - Focus of worship, A - Aim of worship, C - Cause of worship, E - Effect of our worship.

Meet Ashley Bernardi Ashley Bernardi is the founder of powerhouse media relations firm Nardi Media, where she works with corporations, brands, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits in obtaining high-profile placements in broadcast, print, and online media. Trained as a journalist at CBS News, nationally syndicated program energy NOW! on Bloomberg, and Washington Post Live, she has a natural ear for a story and journalist's passion for research. The traumatic death of her father at a young age and diagnosis of Lyme Disease and postpartum depression after the birth of her third child deepened her passion for health, wellness, and spirituality, and taught her how to access her own authentic power to heal her life. She is a certified Life Designer® and received her certificate in The Science of Well-Being from Yale University. In addition, Ashley hosts the award-winning podcast 2 Girls Talking. Ashely is also the author of the new powerful book, Authentic Power: Give Yourself Permission To Feel. The oldest child in a proud military family, Ashley was born in Schweinfurt, Germany, and has lived and worked in New York City and Washington, D.C. She currently resides in Northern Virginia with her family. Ashley is a frequently featured expert in the media, including Forbes, Great Day Washington, Good Day DC, and more. If you have ever struggled with not letting yourself feel your emotions, pushing down trauma or feelings that are uncomfortable, or putting on a mask of strength to hide your pain or grief, this conversation is for you. There are so many insightful takeaways both from Ashley's vulnerable journey of grief and healing from an illness that almost took her life. She noticed that at the beginning of the pandemic she was caught in a wave of intense and messy feelings that triggered old trauma and loss. Ashley decided to do something about this and after an intuitive life coach session with yours truly, she realized that what wanted to be birthed was a book to help others learn to feel and heal through their own authentic power. Ashley set out to interview some of the top healers, physicians, luminaries, and leaders to dive into how we can all move through this time of greater uncertainty and fear with a greater sense of hope and real tools to both experience your authentic feelings and come out stronger. Ashley so poignantly shared that when you bury your trauma, it will come out in other ways. This is what happened to her after years of people-pleasing, wearing a mask of 'everything is fine', hyper over achievement, and doing all the things to stay disconnected from her real feelings. On paper, it all looked good. Real good. Inside though, Ashley was a full-on disaster. She saw this play out in her workaholism, destructive relationship with alcohol and men all the while ignoring her feelings and trying her best to keep up with the world. She did this until her life came tumbling down after experiencing another double trauma --- being diagnosed with a mysterious illness, soon to be realized was Lyme disease and postpartum depression. Her body felt like it was shutting down, between losing control of her bowels, losing too much weight, not digesting food, dizziness, and feeling like she had the flu and no control of her body. She cried out to God for help and surrendered at a level she had never experienced before. Although bedridden, after this deep surrender, she started to actually feel her feelings and soon noticed that she felt better. Healing was literally happening because she was going through her feelings, not avoiding them. This is such a powerful lesson and is much of what inspired Ashley to write a book to help others suffering from a lack of full permission to feel and express their emotions. Some of the key insights that Ashley gleaned from this excruciating yet transformative experience was that there's not a one size fits all for healing and that when you give yourself permission to feel, you tap into your own authentic power and allow for massive transformation. Her goal was to help others also going through challenging feelings to know it's ok to take off the mask of strength and to feel whatever comes up. One of the best ways to dive head forward into your feelings, which for many of us, can feel like saying I want to go take a walk in a landmine, is to get curious. Use the blessing of curiosity, which is one of the key components to being a coach, and the coaching work Ashley did in the Life Designer® Coach Academy for coaching mastery, and look for the answers from within. Some of the questions to ask yourself are: Where is this emotion showing up in my body? and What might this feeling be telling me or showing me? We also talked about Ashley's helpful FEEL framework, which she came up with organically when learning how to feel her emotions during her healing process. Here's the FEEL overview which we hope will help you as you move through whatever it is you are facing. F - Focus on your emotion, don't avoid it! E - Enter into that emotion rather than push it down. E - Experience your emotions and feelings, no matter what they are. None are good, bad, right, or wrong. They will pass. L- Listen, Learn and Love that emotion back. Listen for what it's telling you, learn what the lesson might be, and shower your emotion with love. I asked Ashley about how she finds time and space to feel remnants of grief, sadness, or whatever she might be feeling. She very wisely shared that she takes breaks throughout the day to pause, feel and in the least take 10 breaths to reset. You can always make time for yourself and it's imperative that you do so! Another great tip she shares in her book, Authentic Power, is from Dr. Jamie Hope, who is a dear friend and amazing ER physician, author, and leader. Dr. Hope talks about stressing hard and stressing soft. We're meant to experience stress and it's about knowing how to give yourself what you need to deal with your stress, whether that might be throwing old dishes against a wall, hitting a 'dammit doll' (love that) punching your pillow. In the end, this is all about honoring you, your emotional landscape, and whatever feelings are here to be expressed. You, and your feelings, are sacred and the most important thing is to remember your authentic power and start by giving yourself permission to feel.

早安，我是叶梓，算上前一段时间更新的三条视频早自习，今天应该算是早自习陪伴大家的第1777天了。今天我想回答一个器材方面的问题，有一位同学@我，想让我讲讲自动对焦锁定和自动曝光锁定，很遗憾就是找不到这位同学的名字了，但是问题大概就这么个问题。那么我之前好像也讲过，今天我们再换一个方式再来讲一讲，看看大家能不能理解。图片来源：dcfever.com首先是这样子的，相机是可以自动曝光和自动对焦的，那么这两个功能分别叫做AF和AE，这其实挺好记，因为A肯定就是自动，然后F就是Focus是对焦，然后E就是曝光。那既然有自动的对焦和自动的曝光，我们就可以有一个功能，就是让相机一直停留在这个对焦结果上，或者停留在这个曝光的参数上不动，就是所谓的锁定。所以自动对焦锁定和自动曝光锁定的符号，就是在前两者这个名字的基础上变成了AF-L还有AE-L，L代表Lock锁定。说实话对于大部分的摄影师而言，这两个功能都不算很常用的功能，但是它有的时候确实有点用，所以相机厂商喜欢把这两个东西做到一个按钮上去，消费者就会在相机的某一个按钮上同时见到AF-L、AE-L这么两排英文字母，说这个牛，既可以当做对焦锁定用，也可以当做曝光锁定用，还可以什么？还可以两者同时用——就是一个按钮按下去，两个功能同时实现。那具体这个按钮按下去是什么效果，你要查说明书，要看你的相机的菜单里面如何去设置，你是可以去设置这个按钮的功能的。那么对焦锁定和曝光锁定分别都会在什么时候用呢？这个真的是很少见。有一种情况可能是要用到的，就是当你要在这里测光，但是在那里对焦时，测光和对焦对象不一样时。我举一个比较极端的例子，现在你要拍一个姑娘，然后你有一张国际标准的18%灰反射率的灰卡，然后当你的相机点测光在这个灰卡上，相机绝对能达到一个标准的曝光值，这是一个非常严谨的工业流程。但这有个问题，就是你拍出来的这个人像照片里肯定不想有这张灰卡，你也不能对焦在这个灰卡上，你还是得对焦在一个人物眼睛上对不对？所以怎么办呢？你可以把灰卡请助理帮你挡在模特的脸的前方，紧贴着鼻子冲向相机，然后让相机用点测光模式点测这个灰卡，测好光了以后锁定曝光值，也就是打开自动曝光锁定，然后请助理把那个灰卡给拿开，接下来从从容容的对着模特的眼睛进行对焦。你看，我们测光测的是灰板，但是对焦对的是人物的眼睛，测光和对焦这两件事必须分开来做，这个时候你可以用上对焦锁定或者曝光锁定。但说实话这功能其实它没有也无伤大雅，可能就是稍微麻烦一点点。比如说对焦如果想被锁定很简单，不就是先对好焦，然后把镜头上的对焦模式从自动对焦改为手动对焦，只要改为手动对焦镜头就不再对焦了，不就是锁定在刚才对焦结果上了吗？所以通过切换手动对焦其实是可以起到锁定对焦的效果的。曝光锁定不就更简单了吗？你自己先在光圈优先模式下相机测个光，光圈、快门、感光度给你了，给你了以后记住那三个值，切换到手动曝光模式，一模一样的设上那三个值，这个时候这个曝光值是不会再变了的，所以曝光也会被锁定下来。只不过就是这两个原来要手动去做的功能，现在就放到一个按钮上去给某些人提供一些方便吧。对了，我还需要补充一点，在有一种情况下对焦锁定还是蛮管用的。比如说你在拍体育比赛的时候，在拍撑杆跳高或者是拍百米冲刺，你可以提前的把对焦锁定在杆的位置上，或者是那一个冲刺的线的位置上，然后就等着运动员到那个杆的位置或者是撞那根线，你就按下快门就好了，因为这个时候省去了对焦的环节，所以抓拍起来可以更快，更容易抓拍到精彩的画面。有人会想说这不也可以通过切换到手动对焦来实现吗？是的，但是很多高级的体育及新闻机里面，它可以同时锁定不同的几个距离，比如说你可以第一个对焦距离锁定在起跑线上，第二个对焦距离锁定在终点线上，甚至在中间，你比如说跨栏比赛哪一个栏上，你再锁定一个对焦距离，这样的话你可以通过一个按钮就在三个对焦结果之间切换。因为省去了中间的每一次都要告诉相机要对这个杆、对这个线，省去了这个过程，提前就相当于做好了准备工作，所以对焦就会更快、更准。最后想说一句，现代的数码相机提供了太多太复杂太细致的功能了，这些功能它真不一定是给你使用的，但是有人需要，他们可能是拿来能用得得心应手。但是对于摄影爱好者来说，你好奇是个好事，但是心里也要知道，不是所有的功能都必须要去用上。你的注意力，最核心的问题其实还是要放在如何创作优秀的艺术作品上，你到底想表达什么？你用了哪些技法来配合表达？顺带一提，学表达的话来参加我的摄影工作坊是再好不过的了。元旦期间这一次的摄影工作坊会在广州举行，欢迎全国的同学们过来参加，我们会花三天时间小班授课来辅导你完成一组真正的艺术作品。想了解工作坊的同学可以点语音下方的第一条蓝色链接进去了解详情。另外12月4号的故宫外拍课已经报满了，我们又在下午加开了一场，现在报名还有机会，大家可以扫描语音下方的二维码加我们的课程顾问进行预报名。最后还有两个通知，一是上个月的艺卓摄影大赛，有数百名摄影爱好者都投了稿，我们将在本周五的晚上8:00来进行投稿的点评和宣布获奖人名单。大家可以密切关注我们公众号，到时候我们会公布听课的链接。另外我们在下周一晚上会推出一场看咔图超级会员的直播课，继续就着陈曼和迪奥的风波来谈谈有关审美有关艺术的问题，我谈得比较深入一些。想听的同学们不妨把整个图文拉到最底部，看到那张黑色的会员卡，戳进去，了解一下我们的超级会员的权益，有大量这样的直播的好课。今天是摄影早自习陪伴大家的第1777天，我是叶梓，每天早上6:30，微信公众号还有喜马拉雅“摄影早自习”，不见不散。

Leadership is never an easy task but, what truly separates a leader from a follower? What are the keys to good leadership? Hear about all this and more from this episode's guest Wendy Ryan as we discuss the topic 'Learn Lead Lift: Think, Act and Inspire Your Way to Greatness.' Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Unlock the keys to great Leadership Discover how Mindset, Skillset, and Behavior distinguish the type of leader you are. Learn how to change or affect change as a leader Episode Highlights Are leaders born or made? Wendy shared that leaders are not necessarily born or made. Wendy explains that what we do with the raw material life gives us determines if we become great leaders or not. Wendy explains that one of the main characteristics of a leader is intentionality about their actions. Intentional leaders are not only concerned with themselves but with the members of their team and its overall mission. Wendy reminds us that leadership does not have a specific look and despite humans creating staples of what we believe a good leader looks like or traits they should possess, we can find good leadership in environments such as our homes. Aspire to Inspire Wendy explains that life is our greatest teacher and that the experiences we have in life are the things that shape us and allow us to acquire the right tools needed for effective leadership. People become intimidated when it comes to being an inspiratory leader. However, it is not always about fitting the usual extroverted model that makes someone an impactful leader, things that contribute to being an inspirational leader include, but are not limited to the way you show interest in your team and the way you interact with and value people on a personal level. The Right Mindset of Leadership Wendy highlights that it is vital for people to realize that we don't all start at the same place in the race of life but, no matter where we start from, we all start with something. One of the most important things we can leverage in life is our mindset. Our mindsets affect or determine your course of action in life. Wendy gives us a list of different mindsets and how each affects us as leaders. Growth Mindset - A way of thinking that knows or always tries to learn and improve. Grit Mindset - Recognizes that failure doesn't always mean to give up but rather to revisit, readjust and try again because success isn't always the first thing we experience. Identity Mindset/Identity matters - Wendy highlights how important it is to recognize that everybody is different and each person's experience is shaped by their identity. Leaders need to tap into empathy and acknowledge the differences each person experiences. How do we change Wendy believes that significant steps to changing or being better leaders include; Changing your mindset - Understanding how people think and learning how to think about our reasoning ability enables us to learn more skills as we grow. Examining your Skillset - After understanding one's mindset, you need to figure out the skill sets required to make you a better leader. These include emotional intelligence and systems that help you to plan for contingencies. Behaviour - Changing one's mindset and working on one's skill set is important as a leader. However, ultimately it is the behavior of a person that is the final demonstration of good leadership. Wendy uses the acronym FIDAH to talk about the five behaviors that are critical to leadership. i) F- Focus ii) I- Integrity iii) D- Decisiveness iv) A- Authenticity v) H- Humility 3 Powerful Quotes from This Episode “It isn't about volume, it's about intention.” “Mindsets are the lenses through which we view the world.” “A lot of our life experience gives us the opportunity to acquire the mindsets and the skillsets and...

Has your walk become stale? Revelations 3 reveals five steps to overcome staleness in our walk with God. Step 1: WAKE UP. Consider your ways, take care of yourself, take care of the home of God. Step 2: STRENGTHEN YOUR FAITH even if it is as small as a mustard seed. 2 Timothy 1:6 encourages us to keep our F.L.A.M.E. F-Focus on God, L-Light it, A- Access, give God access to your heart, M-Remember all God had done for you, and E- Energize. Step 3: REMEMBER what you have received. STEP 4: KEEP WHAT YOU KNOW and treasure it. As Deuteronomy 30:19-20 always choose life. Step 5: REPENT.Jessie Seneca felt God calling her into a speaking ministry for women in 1996 at a “Women of Faith” event she attended. Through, battling Cushings Syndrome, a life threatening disease, she knew there was more to “just” surviving, but that God was going to use her story in a way that would encourage women. At the time of her illness, it was hard to understand God’s will in it all, and even when she felt God’s call, she didn’t know what it was going to look like. But through years of preparation, and many encouraging individuals, today, she is enjoying the fruit of her obedience to God through full-time ministry. She is a national speaker, author, leadership trainer and founder of More Of Him Ministries and SHE Leads Leadership Conference. Her ministry helps women grow in God’s Word and experience His touch on their lives which challenges them to make God a priority and inspires them to move into a “wholehearted” lifestyle, one devoted fully to God.Jessie has shared with women in the U.S. and Canada. She also works with LifeWay as one of their YOU Lead trainers. God uses Jessie’s passion and wisdom to speak into the lives of her listeners and readers through her Bible studies and books. She lives in Bethlehem, Pa with her husband, John. They have two daughters and two wonderful sons-in-law. She is also enjoying her role as Mimi.

I heard a quote once that said, "Times of stress or trouble reveal your true colors." The Bible speaks about this in Luke 6:44-45 [paraphrased] that says, "Every tree will be revealed by the quality of fruit that it produces. Figs or grapes are not picked off thorn trees. People are known this way (like trees). Every man produces good out of the goodness stored in them and if you have evil stored up in you - it will come out. For the overflow of what you store in your heart will be seen by the fruit you produce and it will be heard in your words. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of" and then eventually it is seen in your actions. If you and I are trees growing to bear fruit - what are we feeding ourselves now? Kindness, generosity, selflessness, self control, etc. What you feed yourself will be the fruit you produce in every season. The following verses talk about how fools don't follow this practice and stumble. Ahhh, but you are no fool, my friend if you are listening to this podcast with Lily Rodriguez, owner of Lily Bakes. She shares with us her struggles during this pandemic, and how through a flour drought she gave anyways...to me and many others with her delicious cookies and cupcakes! In a crisis, she showed her true colors, the good fruit of her heart of generosity, and her faith in Jesus. I was so moved by her generosity that I had to share her story with you! It was vital for me to have her on as proof that even in troubles when we have an inclination to hold on and store up for "our 4 and no more", thus, close minded to generosity - when you shift change to generosity God will open up the windows of Heaven for a blessing that you cannot contain (Malachi 3:10)! He's not into keeping a scoreboard or you scratch my back - I'll scratch your back system in His giving. Nope. He is gracious to give to us all the time, but when we give to others - He is extravagant to give back to us in response. Sticky note quote: "You can never out give God." S - Stand firm in God even in the tough times -> Don't be swayed to fall apart, play the victim, panic, or worry when things don't pan out. Remember God's promises and stand on them. H - Hope for what you cannot see (faith) and put action to it -> Keep baking, keep producing, keep creating, keep working. God's got you! I - Impact others by searching for that one person you can bless. -> Keep an eye and an ear out for that person you can bless and say, "I got you!" F - Focus on the fruit and ask for the rest. -> Don't stop baking, producing, or creating because of a missing ingredient. Ask God for what you need. You have not because you ask not! Talk to Him and then reach out to your circle of trust. T - Thank God for the blessings and repeat! -> When He exceeds your expectations, Thank Him for what He's provided and repeat the cycle! Be a blessing to others around you by your giving! Connect with Lily on Instagram: @Lilybakes.tx and order your next delicious treat for your next occasion! You will not be disappointed!

This week on Inside the Headset, we are featuring Super Bowl XXXV champion, and current Lipscomb Academy Head Coach, Trent Dilfer’s session from the 2020 AFCA Convention. Coach Dilfer discusses the importance of developing pros, the concept of thermostat leadership, and the significance of Energy, Effort, Attitude, and Focus. Trent Dilfer led the Baltimore Ravens to a Super Bowl championship in 2000 and was a lead analyst for a variety of ESPN programs. The 14-year NFL veteran joined ESPN in July 2008. Dilfer played for five teams during his career, including the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1994-99), Baltimore Ravens (2000), Seattle Seahawks (2001-04), Cleveland Browns (2005), and San Francisco 49ers (2006-2007). Dilfer led the Ravens to a 34-7 victory over the Giants in Super Bowl XXXV. The 1997 Pro Bowl selection finished his career with 20,518 passing yards. Dilfer was the sixth overall pick by the Buccaneers in the 1994 NFL Draft out of Fresno State University.

Len necelé dva týždne pred odovzdaním kandidátnych listín sa v politickom zákulisí opäť hovorí o možnom vzniku veľkej pravicovej koalície - PS/SPOLU, Za ľudí, OĽaNO a SaS. Šéf agentúry FOCUS Martin Slosiarik v relácii Fair Play Michala Kovačiča na jednej strane upozorňuje, že tak krátko pred voľbami to môže byť riziko, na strane druhej hovorí, že takéto zoskupenie by mohlo získať až 30 percent hlasov.
Show #592 Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Thursday 26th September 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story to save you time. Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. Hello to new Patreon PRODUCER DOUG BUTCHER Sign up to new petition online from Scott Edy. “Ban the advertising and endorsement of internal combustion engines.” NIO PLANS DEEP JOB CUTS AS LOSSES PILE UP "Nio, China’s home-grown answer to electric-car maker Tesla, posted a worse-than-expected quarterly loss, triggering thousands of job cuts and exacerbated concerns that a bubble in the world’s largest EV market may be bursting." says Automotive News Europe: "The dire situation has prompted the automaker, which is backed by technology giant Tencent Holdings, to raise $200 million from founder William Li and a Tencent affiliate, and to plan the spin off some businesses. Its U.S.-listed shares dropped as much as 28 percent to less than $2 on Tuesday and are off more than 80 percent from their peak following last year’s IPO. Nio has accumulated about $6 billion in losses since it was founded by Li, who is also CEO, in 2014. Fire risks led to a mass callback of nearly 5,000 vehicles in June, a significant portion of the 17,550 units Nio had sold as of the end of May." https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/nio-plans-deep-job-cuts-losses-pile IN AUGUST, NIO SOLD ALMOST 1,800 ES6, BUT ES8 HIT ROCK BOTTOM "NIO is in the process of ramping up the production of sales of its second all-electric model, the ES6, while at the same time it tries to maintain sales of the ES8 seven-seater." says InsideEVs: "Last month, sales of the two amounted to 1,943, which is the highest result this year and third-best in the short history of the Chinese company. Year-over-year growth was 73%. However, looking at the model results, we see a worrying decrease for the ES8: ES6: 1,797 (3rd month on the market). ES8: 146 (down 87%)" https://insideevs.com/news/372544/august-nio-sold-1800-es6/ JAGUAR CALLS A HOT-RODDED I-PACE A WHEN, NOT AN IF "Michael van der Sande, the head of SVO, told British magazine Autocar that a high-performance I-Pace is more of a when than an if." reports Auto Blog: "The production model would receive more comprehensive changes, including a more powerful electric powertrain, but its body kit would certainly resemble the one worn by the eTrophy cars. Whether the hotter I-Pace would arrive as a limited-edition model, like the XE Project 8, or as a standard addition to the range is up in the air. Jaguar is aware that venturing into the high-performance electric car segment would force it to lock horns with Tesla, which offers jaw-droppingly quick versions of the Model S and the Model X." https://www.autoblog.com/2019/09/24/jaguar-calls-a-hot-rodded-i-pace-a-when-not-an-if/ TRITIUM OPENS NEW PLANT IN LOS ANGELES "The Australian fast charging station manufacturer Tritium has opened a new plant in Los Angeles. Tritium now has expanded manufacturing and logistics capacities for the American market as well as a research and development department." according to electrive: "In addition, Tritium will introduce the High Power Charger RT175 with a charging capacity of up to 175 kW, specially developed for the American market and scheduled to be available from the fourth quarter of this year. The RT175 charging station is based on the Veefil PK concept, which is used throughout Europe by Ionity, for example. Recently, Tritium refitted its chargers at Ionity charging sites with liquid-cooled cables that will enable charging capacities of up to 350 kW. The Australian company also presented its latest high power charging system at Cenex-LCV in the UK this September. The system for commercial use is scalable and capable of charging an electric vehicle with 475kW." https://www.electrive.com/2019/09/24/tritium-opens-new-plant-in-los-angeles/ VW CHAIRMAN AND CEO ACCUSED OF STOCK MARKET MANIPULATION "Volkswagen Group is under new scrutiny as German prosecutors charge two top bosses with stock market manipulation. Prosecutors allege VW Group CEO Herbert Diess and Chairman Hans Dieter Poetsch failed to promptly inform investors about the Dieselgate scandal according to Automotive News." says Motor1.com: "The new charges are just the latest development in the years-long scandal that has rocked the iconic automaker and has led to billions in fines for the company and its subsidiaries. Prosecutors also charged former CEO Martin Winterkorn in the case. Lawyers for both Diess, who will remain as VW’s CEO, and Poetsch say neither could have predicted the scandal’s financial impact on the company. Diess joined the company in July 2015, months ahead of the scandal breaking in September when the automaker admitted it’d installed software on 11 million vehicles to cheat emissions testing, racking up $33 billion (€30 billion) in fines and expenses so far, according to the publication." https://www.motor1.com/news/372588/volkswagen-accused-stock-manipulation/ TESLA CEO ELON MUSK GIVES VW CEO KIND WORDS "Despite allegations made by the EPA regarding the German automaker, Musk gave Diess his support as a response to an article written by Bloomberg‘s Chris Bryant, who said that the VW executive should win an award for “Worst Sense of Timing.” This comes just a few weeks after the Tesla CEO trolled Volkswagen for cheating on emissions testing." picked up by TEslaratI: "“Herbert Diess is doing more than any big carmaker to go electric. The good of the world should come first. For what it’s worth, he has my support,” Musk said on Twitter. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-elon-musk-kind-words-vw-ceo-sustainability/ TESLA MODEL 3 IS THE BEST-SELLING CAR IN NORWAY IN 2019 BY FAR "Tesla’s (TSLA) Model 3 has become the hot-selling car in Netherlands, with year-to-date sales crossing 10,000 units. Undeniably, this figure is massive. This seems to be an impressive feat for a model that started delivery since February 2019. Not many vehicles manage to sell this much even in a year. Reportedly, Model 3 was the third best-selling vehicle in the country in the January-August period, just behind Volkswagen’s VWAGY Polo and Ford’s F Focus." reports Yahoo! Finance "In the Norwegian market, Tesla Model 3 is the hottest-selling car, that too by a large margin. With around 12,000 units sold in Norway so far this year, Tesla’s Model 3 sales have been more than double than Volkswagen Golf, which is in the second spot. Notably, Netherlands and Norway have always been a big market for Tesla, even before Model 3 hit the roads. But with the launch of Model 3, Norway and Netherlands are much ahead in the EV game in Europe." https://finance.yahoo.com/news/teslas-tsla-model-3-takes-152003025.html MAZDA CONFIRMS IT WILL PRESENT FIRST PRODUCTION EV IN TOKYO "Mazda confirmed this Wednesday (September 25) that it will present its first EV at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show. Not only that: It will be the company’s first production EV." according to InsideEVs: "The e-TPV has a small battery pack of only 35.5 kWh. For you to have an idea, it has the exact same size as the one that the Honda E uses. The new Mazda PHEV will have a rotary engine as its internal combustion unit. At least this is what the carmaker told the journalists that drove the e-TPV." https://insideevs.com/news/372762/mazda-ev-debut-2019-tokyo-motor-show/ MG EXTENDS CUSTOMER OFFER AFTER SECURING 2,000 ORDERS FOR ZS EV MG Motor UK has secured 2,000 orders for its affordable electric SUV, the ZS EV, in just two months since launch. In light of this success, the brand has introduced a new offer for the next 1,000 retail customer orders, continuing to match the government’s plug-in car grant for the ZS EV Exclusive version. With the MG grant of £3,500 for the range-topping ZS EV Exclusive on top of the government’s own £3,500 plug-in car grant, customers benefit from an outstanding overall price from just £23,495. ZS EV Excite benefits from a new £3,000 MG Grant which, when paired with the government grant, results in an overall price from just £21,995. https://electriccarsreport.com/2019/09/mg-extends-customer-offer-after-securing-2000-orders-for-zs-ev/ EDF SAGS UNDER THE WEIGHT OF HINKLEY POINT FIASCO "You may remember Thomas Piquemal. He resigned as chief financial officer of Electricite de France (PA:EDF) three years ago after warning that the French government’s determination to have EDF build the Hinkley Point C reactor in south-west England could bankrupt the company." writes Yahoo! Finance: "EDF warned of yet more overruns to the project. It now expects up to $3.6 billion in additional costs and warned that it’s more likely than ever that the project will be delayed. EDF was worth 107 billion euros back in 2010 when the British government announced the sites where it wanted to build a new generation of nuclear plants. It’s now worth 30 billion ($33 billion).The U.K. guaranteed EDF a price of 92.50 pounds per megawatt-hour for Hinkley Point C in 2012. Last week, it auctioned offshore wind power projects at a strike price of as low as £39.65/MWh." https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stockbeat-edf-sags-under-weight-061700361.html?.tsrc=rss QUESTION OF THE WEEK The MYEV.com Question Of The Week… What do you want to hear on this podcast?

Neuro-Linguistic Processing, or NLP, is one of the many psychological coaching tools out there that some people completely swear by, while others think it’s just another pop-psychology fad. Our guest Nick Cownie, armed with a clinical background, has made a name for himself by distilling a lot of overwrought NLP techniques down to just their most essential components, and he’s here to tell us about how to put them to good use—and tell us a harrowing tale of being kidnapped and left in the desert! Background Nick Cownie is a sales psychology consultant, NLP consultant and practitioner based out of Wagga Wagga. Originally trained in traditional Chinese medicine after his health sciences degree, he worked in a clinical setting for fifteen years before moving into NLP. He and his wife were early adopters of the training and coaching methods that are standard today, moving their mindset training services online back when that was unheard of in the field. A method that matters In a landscape pretty crowded with models and tools vying for our attention, what’s the big deal about NLP and mindset training? Nick says it matters because it’s so well-equipped to tackle the major problems he sees over and over again for people going into business for themselves: Low confidence. Nervousness, anxiety, and impostor syndrome, which all lead to self-sabotage for otherwise talented and capable people. Procrastination and lack of discipline. Feeling stuck putting off tasks you know will help you—or only getting stuff done when you really feel like it—majorly holds people back. Lack of influence. Being comfortable influencing others—without slipping into inauthenticity, sleaziness and manipulation—is a crucial skill to develop. Sleaze versus science Nick says NLP absolutely has a bad reputation with some—and in a lot of cases, it’s totally deserved. A lot of techniques and materials practitioners sell are heavily padded with unnecessary fluff, and there are entire niches of NLP dedicated to using it for manipulative sales, or even manipulation in your personal life. That said, while his methods pull from a lot of classic NLP frameworks, he shies away from using a lot of their terminology, preferring to stick with the established psychological terms for the same things. While some of the wording around mindset training and mindfulness can get very hokey very quickly, Nick emphasizes that NLP terms like “anchoring” are really just psychologically-standard tools like state elicitation and associative conditioning. They’re about training your brain to stop getting stuck responding to negative stimuli, and start being able to access positive states in a predictable way. "I'm a pragmatist,” Nick says. “All I'm interested in is results." Influencing yourself The trick to fixing your mindset, Nick says, is essentially to get out of your own way. That means identifying the person you are right now, with all your pros and cons—that’s You, Version One. You have a lot of obstacles in your way—maybe fear of failure, impostor syndrome, lack of discipline—that are stopping you from succeeding. You, Version Two, is the person who is able to succeed, because they aren’t held back. You need to identify what the differences are between Versions One and Two of yourself, and take action to clear the obstacles and gain the skills you need to bridge that gap. Obviously, it’s easier said than done—but Nick shares one of his tools with us for getting past your fears. Tune in to learn how to use emotional states and conditioning to instantly access the most confident version of yourself! Influencing others Communicating effectively with others is a big part of NLP—and while the basic techniques can be used in a manipulative way, Nick stresses that won’t do you any good, in sales or in life. Effective, influential communication using NLP tactics can get your genuine message across to clients in a way that’s most likely to reach them. “You can do that and still be authentic without manipulating anyone,” Nick says, “and do it in a way that's more likely to have them convert if they are the right client.” He also says that manipulation tactics are really a way of influencing the wrong people—which always comes back to bite you in the end. “You get a bunch of refunds, a bunch of bad reviews—it doesn't really work anyway.” Nick shares one of his tools with us for learning to influence others in a genuine way—it’s easy to apply in sales settings, and it’s easy to remember, too. He uses this simple four-step acronym: F - Focus their attention. A - Access emotions. S - Seed potential. T - Trigger the response. An integrated method Nick pulled a lot of useful knowledge from his time working in Chinese medicine, including a foundational concept called bian-zheng, the process of recognizing patterns in diagnosis. He uses it as a guidepost for recognizing patterns in his own work, and has found it helps him find approaches that work across different contexts and industries. How to get started NLT and mindset training are skills, Nick says, just like anything else. There’s no overnight solution, and every tool in the system takes time to be fully effective. He stresses to Troy that every time you show up to work on your skills, even a little, you're improving. But take the pressure off yourself to be a master overnight. Let your incremental progress add up like compound interest, and it will! Nick is also leaving WPElevation listeners with some freebies—click here to access The Self-Sabotage Solution, which includes an infographic, a voice-guided walk-through of the mindset technique mentioned earlier, and a two-hour training video running through mindset training tools. You can also reach him on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

James 1:5-8 Faith that does not waiver has at least 5 characteristics for sure, F-A-I-T-H. F-FOCUS on the faithfulness of GOD. Let us fix our eyes on JESUS! A-ACTIVE OBEDIENCE. Faith without works/obedience is dead! I-INTIMACY with GOD. Do you know HIM or just know about HIM? T-TENACITY. Faith that will not waiver is tenacious in prayer! H-HEARING. Without the WORD of GOD all we have is presumption. But standing on the promises of God we shall not waiver! You can listen to more of Brian’s sermons here: https://brianlongpreaching.com/

In this week's episode, Natalie talks about why focusing is about being discerning and committing, and why we allow ourselves to get busied up in all manner of distractions because we are afraid of putting our stake in the sand and saying, ‘This is who I am, this is what I’m about, and this is what I need’. She also talks about why a lot of our painful relationships and problems are about avoiding our potential and purpose, along with delaying on reaching a resolution about outstanding decisions.

Today Diane interviews Susie Miller to discuss improving relationships from “boardroom to bedroom” and how to make time in your day for the people you love. Susie explains her PROFIT method for helping busy professionals work on their relationships while still striving in their career. Susie draws on personal experience to give her advice and Diane discusses her own particular interest in this topic relating to her past. Diane and Susie also examine ways you can ask the people around you for help by highlighting the time when they value your company the most. The advice in this episode is particularly for Type A personalities who might need to be reminded that the most important relationship is the one with themselves; looking after yourself helps to sustain your other relationships. Susie is a professional counselor who moved into life coaching after a sudden illness made her re-evaluate the levels of stress in her career. She has clients all over the world and published her first book in 2015, the second book is expected in early-2016. What you will learn: Susie Miller has a Masters degree in counseling and now works as a Life and Relationship Coach. To maximize your relationships you need to recognize the value they have in every area of life. You need to work on relationships now, and not “when I get to X” in your career. The PROFIT method is an acronym covering ways to work on your relationships while still striving in your career; P – Priorities, invest your time intentionally R – Reconnect, rekindle your relationships O – Open-up, don’t bottle those feelings F – Focus, there’s no such thing as multitasking in your relationships I – Intentional Interactions, set your alarm to not miss important events T – Tenacity, you can’t fix everything immediately It’s not about the amount of time you spend with someone, but the amount of presence you bring. Treat your relationships like a garden; without nurturing they will wither. Build margins into your day so you’re ready to engage when you get home. Take one step at a time, huge change through small steps. You need to look after yourself to sustain relationships. Quotes: Sometimes relationships take the backseat to the busyness of life It’s not about the same amount of time, but the same amount of presence. These relationships are the “why” behind what we’re doing. You need nose-to-nose time.
