Motivation and Inspiration Interviews with Professor of Perseverances
Two inspiring men came into my life as God had plan. They left an impression on me that I honor them on October 10th.Mr. Brice Hall used to umpire some of my high school baseball games and after my injury, when I became a coach, Mr. Hall was still on the diamond. Fun Fact: he was born on 10 / 10 / 10 – October 10th, 1910. He was a great inspiration for the young ball players because of his age in his late 80s. He kept doing what he loved – not at home dying but living on a baseball field.Mr. Fred Webber and I met in the hospital. Mr. Webber with a kidney stone and I with a spinal cory injury. When he was discharged from the hospital, he wrote a powerful motivational letter which dates back to October 10th, 1983. I read his letter every year.Thanks for listening in advance and have a bless day.To learn more about James, visit Professor of Perseverance.

One of the Most Important Men in Texas Music You've Probably Never Heard Of... Without D.j. Dugan's relentless efforts, the Texas Music landscape would look very very different. And that’s no exaggeration. Hailing from the Ft. Worth Stockyards, Dugan is a creative innovator, a 7th generation entrepreneur, creator and co-owner of Shake Music TV, and marketing / digital distribution manager for Smith Music. Odds are pretty good – if you’re listening to a Texas artist on Spotify, or buying an album at Buck-ees rest stop – D.j. had a hand in getting in there. He’s done a whole heck of a lot more too… Watch as we discuss: pitfalls most musicians are making in 2018, online distribution, the importance of marketing, being yourself, becoming a “Music Friendly Community”(LET'S DO THIS WF!) and much much more… Books recommended by D.j.:– Guerrilla Marketing by Jay Conrad Levinson For more information about D.j.

In this episode, Mark performs a full FasterEFT session with Rebecca. Rebecca had caught her husband having multiple affairs. During the session, we find out that the feeling she has about the affairs is similar to the feeling she has that, all important men in her life leave her. They not only leave, but they die. Listen in as we discover how it is all related and how we re-imprint, transform and change the story of the hurtful memories.

Imagine this: a young African girl, barefoot but wearing a dress and head wrap, clenches her fists and looks you in the eye. Behind her a semi-circle of men, some in suits and some in kente cloth, turn their backs to her. The girl is Abina, the men are “Important Men,” and together they grace the cover of of Abina and the Important Men: A Graphic History (Oxford University Press, 2012), a collaborative effort of historian Trevor R. Getz and graphic artist Liz Clarke. In 1876 Abina took her former master to court in the British-controlled Gold Coast for having enslaved her. She had already escaped to freedom: she seems to have brought charges simply because she wanted her experience of slavery to be recognized. It wasn't. Abina lost her case. But in reconstructing Abina's story in graphic form, Getz and Clarke bring it to present-day readers. And they also bring important questions to the students who are the intended audience of this book: What background information do we need to understand Abina's story? Whose voices do we hear, and whose don't we hear? What do historians do when they don't know all the details of a story? Trevor R. Getz is Professor of History at San Francisco State University, and Liz Clarke is a professional artist and graphic designer based in Cape Town, South Africa. Together, they bring a silenced voice back to life, and they do it in an enormously engaging way.
