This is part two of my highlights from the books I read in 2022 that had the biggest impact on me and will guide my personal and professional development in 2023. This year, I am focusing less on setting resolutions and more on building systems for achieving my desired outcomes. My inspiration for doing that came from excerpts of the books I read last year. In this episode, I'll discuss impactful passages from:"Atomic Habits" by James Clear"The 5 Love Languages" by Gary Chapman"Life is Messy" by Matthew Kelly"The Success Factor" by Dr. Ruth Gotian Each of these books made an impact on me last year that informs the way I am approaching my biggest challenges in 2023. I hope the lessons I learned will help you build systems to tackle your biggest challenges of the year as well. Share your book recommendations with me on social media or email them to the show at docs2dadspod@gmail.comLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drscottpeds Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/docs2dadspod Email: docs2dadspod@gmail.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/docs2dadspod

Follow Rusk and me on our journey to learning our Love Language, after 20 years of marriage, In 2020 I came across the research of Dr. Gary Chapman and it took our relationship as a couple to another level.  It made it easier for us to express our love to each other without the guessing game, because believe it or not we do become complacent and will take our partners for granted.  When he learned my love language and applied it consistently it made my love for him stronger and encouraged me to show love in his love language too. This can be applied to any relationship or partnership,  it works excellently with your kids and parents.   The 5 Love Languages are five ways people give and feel love, and we learned how to use the knowledge of our love language more nurturing, affectionate, and compassionate. I think this will help you as well.  Take the test HERE!

The details of hope, peace and community can be found in the conversation. As you listen, I hope that you are able to add the details of where you are to your conversation to know where you are going. This is a proud mom moment. The best gift you can give your children is the power of connecting them to God. This show is about you - the listener and how you perceive the experiences you have.

When you talk to some serial entrepreneurs you need to put on your seatbelt! Lots of us, as REALTORS®, have that entrepreneurial bent, starting and running our own businesses. Imran Poladi started young selling real estate.  He served as Vice President of NextHome Real Estate since the launch of the company in 2014 until July 2022. He has mentored brokerage owners and as a speaker, he's taught thousands of agents concepts of business, real estate, and living life.   In this episode, we are talking about business planning. But we're also talking about living life the way you want to live it. Though Imran loves business, he also likes taking control of his life and changing it up sometimes. He lives in California. You can read his full story at ImranPoladi.com.   [4:11] Business planning comes around every year. Imran shares his take on this topic. [6:41] Some people start their business planning at the end of December. Imran says you need to know what your budget looks like in the fall. [9:22] Every year, you rebuild your business. Do you want to grow your business? Do you want to maintain your business? What are the elements you consider when you're planning your business? [9:53] Imran works backward. He operates off a “need” goal and a “want” goal. [15:14] Imran cites the Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman. Imran teaches a version of this in his speeches around the country. He speaks of the Five Love Languages of Real Estate. [21:18] Every individual has personal motivations. It doesn't help you to ask someone else what you should be motivated by. You already know what your motivations are. [23:05] Start your blueprint by understanding what you're not willing to do. [27:58] When you try something, you learn from what happens when you try it. You'll learn new communication skills. You're going to learn something with everything you try. [31:11] Imran shares the 30-30-40 rule. [37:36] Before making a big change, talk to the people that it affects. Are you setting the foundation that when the change happens, you're prepared for it? [39:32] Make sure that ultimately the change ends up making you happy in what you're doing. [43:56] If you look at your beginning business and try to imitate someone's established business, it can set you back in your career. [55:07] Where can you go to get a one-to-four or one-to-three return on your lead generation spending? [57:40] The key is finding how you get to your top 100 connections. Imran cites the book 1,000 True Fans. [59:26] People can't get to know you if you're hiding who you really are. Live according to your core principles so people know what to expect of you. [1:04:20] Imran says, if you want to do really well in business, you have to connect with people who have the same drive as you, the same enthusiasm as you, and the same willingness to learn as you.

If you know what your ‘noes' are, then you can configure your ‘yeses' to them.” — Imran   “If you're strategic about it, everything works.” — Imran   “The question then becomes why are you standing in front of that machine [of online lead generation] putting a dollar in and getting 75 cents out?

The Five Love Languages Full Summary and Review by Gary Chapman Many people think that marriage is the grave of love, and a lot of couples fight with each other or have marriage crises because of trivial things. But they are always close to each other when they are in love. So what turns these intimate relationships into ones ripe with conflict? This book will tell us why as well as discuss the primary reason why communication is so important, and how we can express love in proper ways. It also provides effective ways that will point us in the direction of how to resolve marriage crises. Overview | Chapter 1Hi, welcome to Bookey. Today, we will unlock the book by Gary Chapman called “The Five Love Languages.” It is common that relationships change after marriage, even though many couples were happy when they were in love before that. They may fight with each other more frequently after marriage. More seriously, these conflicts can lead to emotional crises or even divorce. What's going on? The problem is that we all have different love languages, which means we all have different ways of expressing love. When getting along with our partner, we express our love based on our own ideas. These different ideas mean people will eventually end up with different love languages. This is the point: Does your partner understand your way of expressing love? Will he or she feel that you love him? This happens because we ignore the fact that everyone has different love languages. Your partner might not feel your love when you express love in your own ways. Why are love languages important? In the book, the author says that giving and receiving love is at the center of every single adult's sense of wellbeing. Marriage is designed to satisfy our needs for an intimate relationship and love. Feeling loved is the most important emotional need for us. In his book, the author uses a good metaphor: in every child's heart, there is an “emotional love tank” waiting to be filled with love. It's only when a child feels truly loved that he can grow up healthy and happy. However, when the love tank is empty, the child will exhibit problematic behaviors. Adults are the same. If our love tank is empty and we cannot feel loved, our marriage will have problems. So how can we fill our love tank and reap good results in a marriage? The love language teaches us how to fill our love tank in the proper ways, and this book will tell us how to do it in detail. Gary Chapman is a prominent relationship coach who has met lots of couples who were faced with marriage issues. Through deep communication, he found that the reason for the marriage crisis was that both partners used the wrong love languages to get along with each other. Therefore, he wrote this book to help people discover their love languages and have a better marriage.

We are in the middle of a short series on detoxing. Today, we are talking about detoxing from the digital world. Don't worry, this is not a guilt-ridden episode on why all digital devices are bad and from the pit of hell. But it is timely as you consider what you are buying for your kids during the holiday season and as you think ahead about setting new healthy rhythms in your home for next year. We are personally still detoxing from habits we formed during the pandemic - hours of hallmark christmas movies, netflix series and yes, reruns of Survivor. So, no judgment from us. However, in all reality, in this digital age, children, with developing brains, are spending more time interacting with screens than ever before. There is less time playing outside, reading a book, or interacting with family. We have lost basic things like looking each other in the eye while we talk, and finishing a conversation about our days before we hit the pillow. Though technology has its benefits, it also has its harms. So we want to shore up some of our thinking and habits.   Arlene Pellican is a speaker, author and podcaster. Her latest book, Screen Kids: 5 Relational Skills Every Child Needs in a Tech-Driven World was co-authored with Gary Chapman. She's been honored to speak, write books (translated into over 10 languages), and appear on several media outlets like the Today Show, Wall Street Journal, Focus on the Family, Fox & Friends, TLC's Home Made Simple, FamilyLife Today, and The 700 Club.

Robby has a chat with Noah Clark, a consulting applications developer at Merchants Bonding Company, one the top 15 largest surety writers in the United States. On the top of Noah's list of things that facilitate the maintainability of software is team dynamics. Well-maintained software can never be achieved by a single individual refactoring code or having grand ideas/visions. It's not made possible by a team coming together and committing to a practice of well-maintained software. He highlights trust and communication between a team and the company they're developing software for as key. He also advises engineers to avoid writing code just to solve problems.Tune in as Robby and Noah discuss why engineers should ensure that their software code leans on the business domain especially when it comes to naming things, how teams can determine when it's necessary to refactor and/or improve existing software, the complexities that come with basing software development projects on best practices, why and how to avoid blog post driven development, why referring to "organizational debt" might be more effective than "technical debt", and so much more.

That's what it's all about.

Big Dreamers, as the holiday season draws near, have you also been thinking about what to gift your family and loved ones? For this festive episode, we thought it would be the greatest gift ever to all our amazing listeners to talk about how to master the art of gift giving.   The key to giving great gifts cannot be found in advertising or things that we see around us; it is to know and then give a gift based on your recipient's LOVE Language. There are 5 languages of love, according to Gary Chapman, and he believes that everybody's preferred way of receiving love can be divided into 5 categories. Basically, the categories say how a person knows that someone cares about them. In this episode, Sophia and Olga talk about some gift suggestions you can give to your family based on their love language.    You can use these suggestions to pick the right gift for a family member or a friend; what's more, you can use this technique not only during holidays but any time of the year. We're sure that they are going to love your gift! Happy Holidays, Big Dreamers!
