“TESTIGO DE CARGO” es una película de Billy Wilder. Basada en un relato corto de Agatha Christie que escribió en 1929 titulado “Manos de traidor”, aunque no se publicó hasta 1948 dentro de un recopilatorio llamado “Testigo de cargo y otros relatos” de Agatha Christie. Sobradamente conocida por sus novelas con sus investigadores favoritos Hercules Poirot o la señorita Marple, la autora sigue siendo una de las autoras más leídas de Inglaterra. Para hablar de la película nos juntamos como siempre Javier Jiménez de Sevilla y Paco Dolz de Valencia, contando en esta ocasión como invitado con José Gómez Tomás de Valencia, que ya participó en otros programas con nosotros. Además, claro está, de Unai Aizpurúa de Donosti, nuestro maestro de ceremonias en la sombra, que se encarga de que todo esto funcione y que sin él no habría programa. Gracias como siempre por estar ahí.

Hinter der Faszination über das überraschende Ende und die brillante Konstruktion verschwindet das Hauptthema das Romans: die Gerechtigkeit. Ist das, was wir erfahren - und auch das, was Poirot tut - wirklich gerecht. Agatha Christie spielt auf faszinierende Weise Schattierungen des Rechts durch. In dieser Folge werdne das Ende verraten und die Handlung als bekannt vorausgesetzt.

2. Teil der drei Folgen zum „Mord im Orient-Express“, notwendigerweise voller Spoiler. Wo deutet sich schon an, worauf es hinausläuft, wo führt uns Agatha Christie in die Irre und so einiges mehr. Im dritten Teil (Folge 141) wird es dann um die Gerechtigkeitsfrage und das überraschende/umstrittene Ende gehen.

Agatha Christies Sehnsuchtszug von Kindheit an: der Orientexpress. Eine katastrophale Reise darin bringt sie auf die Idee, ein Verbrechen in diesem Zug spielen zu lassen. Dazu ein realer Kriminalfall - und das Ergebnis des Mixes ist ein Meisterwerk der Detektivliteratur.

Nội dung chính xoay quanh một gia đình người Mỹ với hai thái cực đối lập: một người với niềm đam mê quyền lực, thích áp bức, quản lý cuộc sống của mọi người trong vương quốc bé nhỏ của mình; thái cực còn lại là những con người từ nhỏ đến lớn đều chịu sự kiềm cặp, theo dõi đến mức không còn khả năng tự lập hay sự dung cảm thoát ly ra khỏi thế giới tăm tối đó.Họ đã có một chuyến du lịch cùng nhau nhưng chuyến du lịch đó đã hoàn toàn thay đổi hoàn toàn cuộc đời và số phận của rất nhiều người. Tội ác đã diễn ra, một “người hùng tội phạm” đã nhân danh “cuộc đời” họ, ra tay kết liễu kẻ bạo chúa kia. Những con người còn sống trong gia đình ấy không những không thương xót mà lại rất dửng dưng và thở phào nhẹ nhõm, khi được giải thoát khỏi những gông xiềng. Vì đồng cảm, họ đã đưa ra những lời nói dối khiến cho vụ án càng đi vào bế tắc. Thế nhưng, sự có mặt tình cờ trong chuyến đi của gia đình ấy của Hercules Poirot đã khiến cho câu chuyện vui của họ không trọn vẹn cho lắm.Điều tuyệt vời mà Agatha Christie đã mang đến cho thính giả ở đây cũng vô cùng quen thuộc trong nhiều tác phẩm có Hercules Poirot của bà: đó chính là nghệ thuật phân tích tâm lý cực kỳ ấn tượng. Không chỉ xây dựng, khắc họa nhân vật rõ nét về ngoại hình lẫn tính cách mà mỗi nhân vật đều có một vai trò trong câu truyện, và các nhân vật đều có một mối liên kết vô hình mà càng về sau mới hiện rõ. Và với những giọng đọc truyền cảm từ Fonos, câu chuyện của Agatha Christie sẽ còn được nâng tầm và khắc họa rõ nét hơn nữa.

It's Christmas Day and we're giving you the gift of a new episode of Casual Trek and we're now, as is traditional, gifting each-other an episode of Star Trek each to cover for the holiday season. There must be something in the air because both Miles and Charlie decide to go with a nice present instead of any potential lumps of coal. Miles desire to make reperations for Tek War results in us getting a good example of film noir in Deep Space 9's Necessary Evil while Charlie gifts Miles a chance to talk about both racism and post-war SF with Far Beyond the Stars, another Deep Space 9 classic, thank goodness there's seven season of Deep Space 9 or we might be in trouble! Episodes include DS9: Necessary Evil (13:49) and DS9: Far Beyond the Stars (41:44) Talking Points include: Christmas Traditions with the family, The Goes Wrong Show and Fawlty Towers, Is there a bad episode of DS9? The strange Mandela Effect of the Meat Loaf song ‘I Would Do Anything For Love.' Thanks to the court case, we are now no longer allowed to say that Sean Orange pays for Twitter while then going on to probably offend all our US listeners, while Charlie makes some small attempt to curb his unreasoning hatred of Blake's 7 (Miles wrote these notes BTW) Yes, we're doing Threshold when we hit the 100th episode of Star Trek covered for the show. Miles' Most Passive Aggressive Handover at Starbucks. Prequels needlessly making big introductions of everything, including Hercules Poirot's mustaches. Quark's Code-switching. Hiding stuff in walls. Miles has been a dick at many a job. The closest character we could compare Odo to is Judge Dredd… not great. Claude Raines in Casablance. How long can a collaborator remain on the sidelines? One more ALLAMARAINE for the season. We'll see how long it takes Charlie to hate Blake's 7 again. SF Writers of the Post-War Age, Golden Age vs. New Wave, Policy Brutality, The Harlem Renaissance, LET'S GET POLITICAL AT CHRISTMAS TIMES, don't trust Centrists, Police Brutality in Riverdale, the ideas of Science-Fiction that can change the world, THE CURRENT EDITOR IN CHIEF OF MARVEL PRETENDED TO BE JAPANESE IN ORDER TO GET WRITING GIGS, the problems with our Big List, what is a ‘Unit of Star Trek,' Top Trumps, the NPR Star Wars Radio Dramas PEDANT NOTES: Miles refers to Kira as a Collaborator instead of a resistance fighter as I meant to. Claude Reins doesn't shoot the Nazi in Casablanca, but helps cover up Rick's role. NEXT WEEK: Saddle up partner as we head to the Wild West… in Space!

Kriminalgeschichten, Humorvolles, Autobiographisches, Religiöses - und fast Science Fiction. Der Sammelband enthält alles, was Agatha Christie an weihnachtlichen Erzählungen erdacht hat, von 1923 bis 1965.

Descubre en este resumen por qué Agatha Christie sentía odio hacia su personaje más popular: Hercules Poirot. El asesinato de Roger Ackroyd, destacada novela de ficción policial de la aclamada autora. Esta obra está narrada desde la perspectiva del Dr. Sheppard, médico en una pequeña abadía, quien detalla las circunstancias que rodearon el asesinato de un hombre a punto de desvelar una inquietante verdad. El doctor colabora estrechamente con el popular Hercules Poirot.

Cacería en Venecia s la tercera película de Kenneth Branagh basada en textos de Ágatha Christie y encarnando a Hercules Poirot

Mehrmals ist Nicky Buckley schon dem Tod entgangen, das vierte Mal ganz in der Nähe von Hercules Poirot. Das bringt ihn dazu, dem Ruhestand endgültig zu entsagen und zu versuchen, ihren Tod zu verhindern. Doch dann trifft es die völlig unbeteiligte Cousine - und Poirot ist von Selbstzweifeln geplagt ... Natürlich nicht lange! Ein wunderbarer Roman von 1932.

Eine Poirot-Geschichte über einen rätselhaften Leichenfund in einer Truhe läutet für die Fans von Agatha Christie das Jahr 1932 ein. Sie veröffentlicht damit außerdem ihre erste Geschichte im "Strand Magazin", das untrennbar mit der Figur des Sherlock Holmes verbunden ist. Eine Geschichte wie aus der guten alten Zeit, inklusive Captain Hastings.

Ooooh, it's a bumper episode of The Movie Robcast this time. Robs Daniel & Wallis cast their critical eye over four, that's right, four movies! Kicking off with Saw X, the horror prequel, well, sequel to Saw, and prequel to Saw II and the rest. Think of it as Saw 1.5. Then onto Rise of the Footsoldier: Vengeance, which Mr. Wallis was surprised to find is a cut above previous instalments in the franchise. The Robs reach different opinions on A Haunting in Venice, the latest Hercules Poirot film from Kenneth Branagh, and they finish talking about The Creator, the new sci-fi epic from Rogue One director Gareth Edwards.

Llegamos al final de esta primera aventura de Hercules Poirot y de Hastings.

Entramos la mundo de Hercules Poirot y de Hastings.

Im Herbst 1928 veröffentlicht Agatha Christie "Double Sin", eine Geschichte, die auch 1923 veröffentlicht worden sein könnte. Poirot und Hastings (noch unverheiratet) machen eine Reise durch das Dartmoor und klären den Diebstahl wertvoller Miniaturen auf. Poirot jammert mal wieder und Hastings schaut mal wieder den Frauen hinterher.

Desde 1995, se vienen observando ejemplares de sapo deformes en el centro del continente norteamericano, en la región entre los Estados Unidos y Canadá. Los Sherlock Holmes o Hercules Poirot de la ciencia han estado luchando durante años para intentar comprender la misteriosa y repentina aparición de sapos con deformidades en sus extremidades. Para muchos, esos defectos indicaban un claro deterioro del entorno en el que viven estos animales. Sin embargo, la respuesta no era tan obvia, en el proceso intervienen dos factores que se potencian entre sí: un parásito y la contaminación. La historia contiene los componentes más importantes de la investigación científica: la observación de un fenómeno; la formulación de hipótesis para intentar explicarlo; la realización de experimentos bien diseñados y controlados para confirmar o refutar las hipótesis y, finalmente, la interpretación de los resultados de dichos experimentos para alcanzar la conclusión más probable.

Im Januar 1927 veröffentlich Agatha, die dringend Geld braucht und an einer Schreibblockade leidet einen Roman und eine Kurzgeschichte. "The Big Four" ist eine Zusammenstellung von Poirot-Geschichten und sicher kein Meisterwerk. "The Soul of the Croupier", eine Kurzgeschichte um Mr. Quin, ist interessant, aber nur im Kontext. Agatha Christie findet sich neu.

Eine Spoilerfolge, denn die schuldige Person wird gleich am Anfang verraten. Ansonsten einiges über Agathas riskanten Wettstreit mit uns Leserinnen und Lesern und den exzellenten Indizien, die hier alle in die Irre führen, außer natürlich Hercules Poirot.

1926 erscheint in Buchform "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd", ein brillantes Verwirrspiel um den Mord an einem Unternehmer. Er passiert in einem kleinen Dorf, wo sich zufällig Hercules Poirot zur Ruhe gesetzt hat. Natürlich aktiviert er seine kleinen grauen Zellen und klärt den Fall auf spektakuläre Weise. Spoilerfreie Folge mit einem Exkurs zu Mah Jong.

Dank der unterschiedlichen Veröffentlichungsstrategien kommen die Leser:innen in den Vereinigten Staaten in der Genuss einer Geschichte mit Hercules Poirot, während er im Vereinigten Königreich noch Gemüse züchtet. "The Under Dog" ist eine lange, klassische Kriminalerzählung, die unspektakulär ist, aber gut unterhält. Und irgendwie ist es schön, dass der exzentrische Belgier wieder da ist.

Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller neix a Torquay, a Anglaterra, el 1890. Filla de pare d’origen nord-americà i mare britànica, degut s les idees contràries de la seva mare respecte l’educació de les nenes, mai va anar a l’escola, i va ser educada pels seus pares. El 1914 es casa amb el Coronel d’Aviació Archibald Christie, de qui n’hereta el cognom artístic, i amb qui té una filla, i de qui acaba divorciant-se el 1928 per la confessió que fa el mateix Archibald que té una relació amorosa amb una altra dona. Durant la Primera Guerra Mundial, treballa en un hospital i després en una farmàcia. Aquest fet la porta a interessar-se per la toxicologia i les seves conseqüències, uns coneixements que li serveixen com a instrument per utilitzar en molts dels crims de les seves obres. El 1920 escriu la seva primera novel·la, ‘’El misteriós cas de Styles’’, on ja apareixen dos dels famosos personatges que l’acompanyen al llarg de la seva carrera: Hercules Poirot i el Capità Hastings. El desembre de 1926 desapareix durant onze dies, la qual cosa provocà gran alarma en la premsa. Després de trobar el seu automòbil abandonat, finalment, és trobada en un hotel d'Harrogate, on manifesta que ha patit amnèsia a causa d'un atac de nervis després de la mort de la mare i la confessió d'infidelitat del marit. Avui dia, però encara no se sap del cert si això fou real o tan sols un truc publicitari. El 1927, comença a introduir un nou personatge en els seus relats, Miss Marple, que, a la llarga, es converteix en la detectiu estrella de la seva obra conjuntament amb Poirot. El 1930 es casa per segona vegada, aquest cop amb un arqueòleg catorze anys més jove que ella. Des d’aleshores, comença a acompanyar-lo en viatges i expedicions al Pròxim Orient, i comença a utilitzar aquests escenaris i vivències per l’ambientació d’algunes de les seves obres. El 1971, Christie rep el títol de Dama de l’Imperi Britànic, i cinc anys més tard, a començaments de 1976 mor per causes naturals. Tant en vida, com després de la seva mort, l’obra de Christie ha gaudit de força èxit i alguns dels seus títols han estat portats al cinema. Val a dir, que a banda de les novel·les de detectius, Christie ha escrit també sis novel·les sentimentals, algunes obres teatrals i un llibre de poemes utilitzant el pseudònim de Mary Westmacott. D’entre tota la seva extensa obra, amb més d’un centenar de títols, entre els que podem destacar ‘Assassinat a l’Orient Express’ (1934); ‘Mort al Nil’ (1937); ‘Cita amb la mort’ (1938); ‘Deu negrets’ (1939); ‘Maldat sota el Sol’ (1941); ‘Cinc porquets’ (1942); o ‘La ratera’ (1952), l’obra que avui posem en antena. ‘La ratonera’ (The Mousetrap) és una obra teatral dividida en dos actes que transcorre al Hall d’una casa situada als afores de Londres. Els personatges queden atrapats a la casa a acusa de la neu i es veuen embolicats en un crim concorregut a Londres recentment. Arriba a la casa el Sergent Trotter, que informa als hostes que l’assassí del crim de Londres es dirigeix cap a la casa. Una nota amb l’adreça de la casa i la cançó dels ‘Tres ratolins cecs’ insinua que queden dues persones per eliminar. En aquest escenari, concorre un segon assassinat a la mateixa casa, del que tots els hostes en són sospitosos. A partir d’aquí s’engega una trama de misteri i suspens per esbrinar qui és l’assassí i qui és la propera víctima. Com a anècdota, cal esmentar que aquesta obra es va estrenar com a format de radioteatre el 30 de Maig de 1947 sota el títol de ‘Tres ratolins cecs’ com a regal d’aniversari a la reina Maria Victòria, i posteriorment va ser adaptada pels escenaris teatrals. La versió radiofònica que avui posem en antena és un enregistrament del Quadre de Veus de Radioteatre de l'any 2011, segons l’adaptació d’Ismael Majó i la direcció de Joan Garrigó, amb les veus de Laura Castillo en Mollie Ralston, Jordi Bernad en Giles Ralston, Ismael Majó en Christopher Wren, Margarida Fabregat en la Senyora Boyle, Joan Rodón en el Comandante Metcalf, Rosa Aguado en la Señorita Casewell, Robert Rué en el Senyor Paravicini i Joan Salvador en el Sargento Trotter. La narració és de Crisol Tuà i la realització tècnica de Joan Borràs.

Zwei letzte Fälle für Tommy und Tuppence 1924: Die Stiefel eines Botschafters sorgen für Verwirrung und ein Spitzenagent aus Moskau wird zur Strecke gebracht. Tommy und Tuppence setzen sich zur Ruhe (vorerst). Parodiert werden Reginald Fortune und Hercule Poirot himself.

Viele Geschichten mit Hercules Poirot - und etliche mit Miss Marple. Darunter eine klassische Herausforderung: die Arbeiten des Herkules. Und viele andere, manchmal obskur und experimentell, meistens lohnend: Die Übersicht über das, was in diesem Podcast zum größten Teil noch kommt!

Agatha Christie hat besonders in ihren ersten Berufsjahren unzähligen Kurzgeschichten in den unterschiedlichsten Zeitschriften veröffentlicht, das wurde schnell unübersichtlich. Im Laufe der Jahre wurden sie fast alle in Buchform veröffentlicht. Des Überblickes erster Teil

Ein Experiment Agatha Christies: 12 Kurzgeschichten, in denen Poirot verhindert, dass die "Großen Vier" die Weltherrschaft an sich reißen. 1927 wird aus den Kurzgeschichten ein Roman. Ein Experiment, das nicht ganz gelingt - und doch spannend ist.

Agatha schließt die zweite Staffel ihrer Poirot-Geschichten ab: mit einem Doppelindiz, einer ganz bezaubernden Weihnachtsgeschichte und einem todbringenden Familienfluch. Dazu zwei Biographien aus Deutschland.

Drei Kurzgeschichten von 1923: Eine verschwundene Köchin, eine unerforschte Mine und ein unscheinbares Mordopfer. Licht und Schatten in Agathas Kunst - und die erste große autorisierte Biographie von Janet Morgan.

W dzieciństwie marzyłam, że będę pływaczką, archeologiem albo prywatnym detektywem, jak Hercules Poirot. Potem zapragnęłam kariery tłumacza i radiowca. I tymi planami żyłam przez sześć lat studiów na filologii rosyjskiej i dziennikarstwie. Ale jak to często z planami bywa, lubią wywracać się do góry nogami. Są jednak trzy historie, na myśl o których w mojej głowie pojawia się pytanie: „A co by było gdyby…?”. Chcesz wiedzieć, co to za wydarzenia? Wskakuj do wehikułu czasu i poznaj mój biznes od kuchni.

Drei Kurzgeschichten aus dem Herbst 1923: Mord oder Selbstmord, Mord beim Dessert und eine Schatzsuche. Schließlich noch die Empfehlung der grandiosen Autobiographie Agatha Christies.

Vier ganz unterschiedliche Kurzgeschichten - einmal geht es ganz tief in Poirots Vergangenheit. Außerdem: ein Pharaonenfluch, Poirot als Einbrecher und Agathas erste literarische Kindesentführung.

In dieser Folge ermitteln dreimal Hercules Poirot und Arthur Hastings, einmal sogar Hastings (fast) alleine. Dazu eine kleine Kurzgeschichte in einem Pulp Magazine, keine Detektivgeschichte, doch vermutlich sehr persönlich.

Unter den zahllosen Kurzgeschichten Agatha Christies im Jahr 1923 sind zahlreiche Glanztaten ihres Meisterdetektivs Hercules Poirot. Innerhalb weniger Wochen geht es um einen Doppel-Diamanten-Diebstahl, einen kniffligen Versicherungsfall mit ungewöhnlichen Ermittlungsmethoden und um nichts weniger als die Rettung des British Empire.

Wie gelingt es Agatha, die Leser:innen in die Irre zu führen? Von Ich-Erzählern, rassistischen Klischees und Erinnerungslücken. Schließlich auch noch ein wenig Kakao.

After a short hiatus, we're back with our tenth episode. It's a mystery this time in the tradition of the Sherlock Holmes and Hercules Poirot stories and was written by Baroness Emma Orczy of Scarlet Pimpernel fame. It's called The Liverpool Mystery, and as the title suggests, is set in the coastal city of Liverpool. Originally published in The Royal Magazine in June 1902, it was part of a series of stories featuring a character known only as the old man in the corner, who reveals the truth behind unsolved crimes to a female journalist from the comfort of a London tea-room. Orczy was inspired to write the stories by the success of Sherlock Holmes, but made a conscious decision to make her detective as different as possible from his more famous forerunner. The stories focus entirely on the reasoning powers of the old man, and unlike Sherlock Holmes, he does nothing to bring the criminals to justice. It's an interesting take, which we think you'll enjoy. C.J. Carter-Stephenson is on narration duty as usual and music is by Kevin MacLeod. Now hold onto your hats as we fire up the Back of the Bookshelf time machine and take you back to our beloved age of steam trains and hansom cabs...

Whodunit? Ese peculiar subgénero policiaco, centrado en la resolución de un crimen dentro de un entorno cerrado, y popularizado por escritores como Agatha Christie ha dado un lugar un buen montón de buenas películas. En un ejercicio de metalenguaje, con la compañía del gran Óscar Díaz, montamos nuestro particular juego de la sospecha. En dos horazas os hablamos de detectives tan caristmáticos como Hercules Poirot, de grandes parodias como Un cádaver a los postres o Cluedo, películones como El nombre de la rosa o Gosford Park y hasta misteriosos juegos criminales hindúes o con toques de licantropía. ¿Quién será la víctima de este crimen y quién el asesino? Chan, chan!

~The Simple Sophisticate, episode #205 ~Subscribe to The Simple Sophisticate: iTunes | Stitcher | iHeartRadio | YouTube "Today's accomplishments were yesterday's impossibilities." —Robert H. Schuller I was recently watching a documentary on Julia Child, and prior to meeting Paul, falling in love with French food and becoming the revolutionary figure she became in the food industry, there was a point in her life where she felt "ordinary", and not as special as she had assumed. It was shortly after the death of her mother to whom she was quite close and also during a time when a man she had been deeply interested in, married someone else. She returned to her parent's California home despondent and not sure of which way to go or with a clue of what to do with her life. Then World War II occurred and she chose to take part in any way she could. The rest is history in many ways, but this lull in her life provided a time of uncertainty about the future and a recognition that what lay ahead for her wasn't something she could predict or foresee. If you are someone who listens to their life, but also does all that you can to plan and put the odds in your favor, you, like me, have no doubt realized that there are still moments, some short in duration and some quite long, that seemingly give no clue how our lives will unfold. Such times are excruciatingly uncomfortable. Excruciating because we do not know if what we are doing is a lost investment or a wise investment. In such moments we begin to question whether we should have perhaps just "played it safe", not stretched so far, dreamed so vastly and swam so far from the shore. While I cannot sit here and write to each reader and confirm without a doubt that all of your dreams will come true, I can confirm that I am on such a ride right now and have been my entire life in many ways. But I have arrived on the other side of many of my worries in the past to see a beautiful reality that at some point along the way only seemed a dream, and in many cases, an impossible dream. Today I'd like to share with you eight things to either do or ways to shift your mind that will help you travel through these inevitable times that we will be introduced to along our journey should we be strong enough to walk away from the "safe" route. I put it in parenthesis because nothing is assured or 100% safe. In fact, when it comes to our mind, I have come to realize that we often have fear that our dreams won't manifest because we want them so badly. If we didn't, we wouldn't give them a second thought. In this instance, we are creating a sense of anxiety that we can actually let go of which leads me to my first point. 1.Make a plan and keep striving forward It's one thing to be worried your plan won't materialize if you haven't done the work. It is an entirely different scenario when you have done the work. Now this is not to say that there is a cookie-cutter approach and then voila! what you want will appear. But the key is to do what you can, keep steadily moving forward, each day, little by little tending to the necessary business and tasks and let go of the "when". 2. Seek meaning In Andrew Soloman's TedTalk regarding one's identity, he shares, "Forge meaning, build identity. Forge meaning, build identity. And then invite the world to share your joy." Another key to the success we seek, the goals we wish to attain is to strive toward something that is meaningful to you. Make sure you are seeking something that is of great value to you. If a particular political issue draws your ire as to how it is being handled, step forward in a manner you are comfortable with and work for the change you seek. As you begin to do so, you will be able to step into areas that you never thought you'd be comfortable going, but it will be your passion for the cause, if it is sincere, that will armor you from the most common doubts. Whatever you are working towards, so long as there is deeper purpose that is fundamental to how you live life or wish to live it, you will have infinite fuel to carry you along the journey. 3. Find the answers to the unknown questions While we may not be able to find all of the answers we seek, the primary reason we are fearful is because of the ambiguity. When we know, we can relax. And based on my mistake of not fully understanding the benefits of taking my business to the next level (LLC or an S-corp), I wasted years and much money because I didn't ask the questions from people who know the answers. When I finally did ask the questions from my now business lawyer, I could have kicked myself. My fears were assuaged because I had the answers, and the answers gave me back the power to make better decisions to determine my financial and personal future. 4. Reflect on your past As I look back over my past and consider the other uncertain times and what eventually unfolded, I am reminded that so many unknowns that I could not have predicted eventually revealed themselves. So long as I refused to stop striving forward, opportunities presented themselves. The key is to keep striving forward, putting forth your best and most sincere effort, being present and being excited about what you will find. Use your past as a confidence boost and apply the lessons you learned along the way. 5. Leave the familiar path Even if the crowd or others in your field have been successful doing something a particular way, it doesn't mean you have to travel in kind if that doesn't work or sit well or feel authentic to you. While it is always a good idea to look around to see what inspiration others can spark in you, as Oprah teaches, stay in your lane. Do it your way, do it well. I like to think of it as taking the time to learn the rules, but then breaking them as necessary as you move forward along your own journey. 6. A quick list to remember Don't fixate on the worst - instead envision what you are working to materialize. We create what we believe, and our energy is finite. Focus on what you desire, use your imagination to make it your reality, rather than envisioning what you do not what to have happen. What you look for, you are more likely to find. Don't become stuck in patterns that didn't work in the past - learn from what didn't work and do it differently moving forward. Perceived mistakes are not failures as they often reveal to us how we can do better next time with the next idea, or the next project. Don't see the unknown as a threat, rather see it as a mystery for you to solve. Become your own version of Hercules Poirot, Sherlock Holmes, or Nancy Drew, and be the detective who discovers how it can all work out. Don't throw your hands up and try anything, hoping something will stick. Be a savvy adventurer into the unknown.  Know the past, understand how history has unfolded (the causes and the effects), and then take educated risks. 7. Become more comfortable with a little messiness If every day each wheel of your machine called life was working smoothly, every email was answered in fewer than 24 hours, the house was always spick and span clean, every bill was paid in advance without a tinge of worry, and debts were paid in full each month even while we were investing, I would be dancing with glee the rest of my life. Some readers may be saying, but that is possible. Having seen what was going on in my life when such a vision was a reality, I can say only from my experience that I saw it as an opportunity to grow, to stretch, to see what else I was capable of, and so I took risks. I invested in my dreams. Now, as I advance in life, I do hope to become more settled, but the reason I kept stretching was because I knew there was more I wanted to experience, more ways in which I wanted to grow and more I wanted to explore. Because of these pulls and interests, I needed to take risks. And when that decision was made or being considered, my mind and my office (and inbox) were sometimes a mess. Not a mess to clean up, but a mess to work through, a mess that needed to materialize in order to strive toward a dream that I could not have made sense of at the time. But with time, each of us can see the beauty of what the mess can give us. We just have to stop thinking everything must be perfect all of the time. We need to allow our lives to be messy temporarily, sort through it, toss and keep what we should and then see the beauty that we were meant to find. 8. Become more comfortable with not knowing Julie Benezet, who in 1999 was working as a director of global real estate for an online company called Amazon as they sought advice on how to best survive and grow their business, in her book The Journey of Not Knowing shares, "I  noticed that when people take chances, they get farther ahead. Too often what happens is people go a more conservative route, because they don't want to deal with the uncomfortable feeling of trying something new when you don't know how it's going to turn out." The key to being willing to take these risks without knowing how they will work out is to become more comfortable with being uncomfortable. In this article she shares four approaches to further yourself in business when it comes to risk taking, and while you don't want to jump head-first without doing your homework, it is important to know that when you have already done the necessary work, you will still feel a bit of fear. Recognize this truth, become more comfortable with this truth, and it will set you free to soar. Whether it is the economy that we wish we could predict, the future of the government we live under, or whether or not our boss will say yes, or the weather will cooperate, the unknown is actually a norm in our lives. What lens we see this unknown through will determine how we navigate through the ambiguity, that while temporary, is inevitable. So take a deep breath, get out of your own way, follow the above eight ideas and enjoy the unique journey you are on. ~SIMILAR POSTS FROM THE ARCHIVES YOU MIGHT ENJOY: ~10 Things People Who Have Found Contentment Understand About Uncertainty, episode #100 ~13 Life Truths to Remember About Making Progress ~7 More Signs You Are Moving in the Right Direction ~Ask Shannon Episode is coming soon!
