Podcasts about inaction

In today's episode, I sit down with operational growth strategist and author Jack Jackson to talk about the high cost of inaction. Jack shares the origin story behind his book Reaction to Inaction, sparked by a moment of silence that cost a company $20 million and one passionate leader their drive. We get into what real empowerment looks like inside an organization, why janitors should be trusted just as much as executives, and how structure can create more freedom, not less. Jack breaks down the framework for building organizations where everyone has a voice, a role in innovation, and the confidence to act with purpose.

Can you think of a more difficult decision than the one that President Truman had to make in 1945? We can'tSometimes sitting still and not doing anything is the riskiest thing to do. Tyler recalls a conversation with friend of the show Henry Nutt III. Henry recounted a situation where his boss left him in a room and told him to sit tight until the boss returned. Henry sat around for a while and then decided to go ahead and do what it was that he thought had to be done in this room. His boss returned and decided that Henry had leadership skills. Entrepreneurship involves risk. It requires initiative and a willing to act when others might be unwilling to do so.Eddie encourages us to ask ourselves honestly what we could change about ourselves in order to improve our productivity or some other form of success. Chances are that we know what needs to be done and we're simply not acting on that knowledge. Inaction often makes failure more likely that action. Here's the whole quote as attributed to Harry S. Truman: “There is some risk involved in action, there always is. But there is far more risk in failure to act.”Check out the partners that make our show possible.Find Us Online: BrosPodcast.com - LinkedIn - Youtube - Instagram - Facebook - TikTok - Eddie's LinkedIn - Tyler's LinkedInIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to us!

We live in a world that praises action and constant progress. It's easy to feel like we must always be doing something, chasing the next goal, or staying busy just to keep up.  But sometimes the real growth happens when we stop, take a breath, and let things unfold at their own pace. Pressing pause doesn't mean giving up. Waiting can give us room to see things more clearly, sort our thoughts, and recharge. In this episode, you'll learn the power of inaction, and how these quiet moments can change everything, helping us grow in ways nonstop action never could. The gift of stillness might be the key to your next breakthrough.

Legal Analysis: Could Inaction Be the Crime in the Karen Read Case? Karen Read is on trial for second-degree murder—but what if the case is less about what she allegedly did, and more about what she didn't do? In this edition of Hidden Killers, Eric Faddis, former prosecutor and legal analyst, explores the idea that inaction—not direct intent—could be central to the case. With Dr. Wolf testifying that John O'Keefe did not die immediately after his injuries, and with no evidence that Karen Read ever attempted to render aid, the legal question becomes chillingly simple: if she left him there, did that constitute a fatal decision? Tony and Eric dig into the duty to render aid, legal definitions of “depraved indifference,” and how a failure to act—especially when time could've saved a life—can cross the line into criminal liability. This isn't just about science. It's about responsibility. #KarenRead #LegalResponsibility #EricFaddis #FailureToAct #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillers #JohnOKeefe #DutyToRenderAid #TimelineEvidence #CriminalNegligence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Read 1 Samuel 24 (See also a second similar experience in 1 Samuel 26); Romans 12:9-21 (See also Hebrews 10:30-31)David, pursued by a spiritually declining King Saul, who lost his throne because of disobedience to God (1 Samuel 15) hid with his small band of misfits in the cave of Adullam: In Chapter 26 a similar experience of pursuit is detailed where as in Chapter 24 by divine design Saul was given information as to David's general whereabouts: “The desert of Enged,” (24:1); yet not an exact location. In chapter 24 it is assured that God in His providence led Saul to David's exact cave, where he and his men were hiding. Saul entered this cave alone to relive himself. How convenient for David to be alone with Saul undetected in the cave. David was given by God a golden opportunity for revenge against his very real enemy and God's rebellious king; wouldn't he be doing himself and God a favor in killing him? And doesn't he have a biblical right, although he wasn't an official judge or jury, according to the Torah(e.g. Exodus 21:24; Leviticus 24:20: Deuteronomy 19:21, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, wouldn't it be justice to enact his personal revenge? The answer according to David's Inaction (verses 3-7) and the N.T. (Matthew 5:38-48 and Romans 12:9-21, is No! According to the concept of progressive revelation and in the shadow of Jesus' revelation concerning His teachers against personal retribution: it's not allowed except for self-defense. Only God the creative sustainer and atoner remains the ultimate Judge. This is especially clear in the N.T. but not absent in O.T, for note David's “stricken conscience,”(24:5) and a God supported reaction of mercy again paralleling N.T. teaching on the topic of judgment (again note Romans 12:9-21). Saul was still King, although a very backslidden royal, was still the anointed of God and David respects that. David even regretted cutting off a small corner of Saul's robe, to demonstrate what he could have done to Saul. And it seems in Saul's reaction, what looked like the possible reconciliation between David and Saul; and through Saul's conciliatory words a possible peace between Him and God. But according to 24:16-24 Saul's words of seeming repentance lasted only a moment and not long lasting as to Saul's further behaviors in chapter 26 indicate and also 24:25, David was not counting on Saul's rehabilitation.Saul's further spiritual decline is recorded in his consultation with the medium/ witch of Endor, since God was no-longer speaking to him and Samuel was dead, in chapter 28; and his ignominious death, with his sons, even Jonathan, in chapter 31. But, what can we as N.T. believers be reminded of David's inaction?As answer to the question: If God chose David to replace Saul for valid reasons as King, why allow Saul to pursue David? He loves David, chose him and is almighty, could He not put an end to Saul before the pursuit?Possible answer: David was also being tested by God to learn something about himself: would he continue to trust God in this seeming paradoxical situation? Even Jesus, in His humanity was tested (Matthew 4, Luke 4) tempted and had to learn something about humanity, “yet without sin” (Hebrews 4:15) James 1:2-4 underlines God's use of tests to further our growth in developing the mind of Christ.David as chosen king expressed the correct, divinely approved behavior in regards to Saul. But, David was far from perfect as the rest of his monarchy demonstrates(remember David and Bathsheba 2 Samuel 11; but he proved to be a great repenter not a rationalizer, see Psalm 51.)Since it was God, working behind the scenes that brought Saul to David's doorstep in Chapter 24 & 26, so that David could wax N.T. How can we know when God is orchestrating a personal test to gauge our trust in Him in paradoxical situations? The answer is, as in

Ready to start your business but feeling held back by market fears or a tight budget?

Waiting is a purposeful pause. It's choosing to hold back, not out of laziness, but out of faith – because I trust that God's timing is better than mine.

George Goncalves, Head of Macro Strategy in the Americas previews our expectation ahead of the May FOMC meeting. We believe that the Fed will skip for a third time in the cycle and have a difficult time threading the needle and making everyone happy at this upcoming meeting. If the Fed elects to stay on the sidelines to wait for data to confirm that further rate cuts are needed, they might realize that they will come too late. If the Fed messaging comes across as more hawkish than markets would like, it could result in risk assets to continue giving back recent returns.

Episode #973 Ever wonder what staying stuck is actually costing you—not just financially, but emotionally and mentally? We're bringing back this episode because it struck a nerve with so many men. It's one of those conversations that hits differently the second time around—especially if you've been feeling that quiet pull to make a change but haven't moved yet. In this episode, we revisit a powerful concept that came out of a conversation with a high-level business consultant who uses a dead-simple method to get results: calculate the real cost of doing nothing. Not hypothetically—actually write it down. And not just for business, but for your marriage, your health, and your sense of purpose. You'll hear real-world examples of what men lose by hesitating—relationships, time with their kids, even businesses. And you'll get a straight-up challenge: write down the five core areas of your life and ask yourself, “What is inaction costing me here?” This isn't about guilt. It's about clarity—and then making moves that matter. If you're in a season where you're waiting for the “right time,” this revisit might be exactly what you need to hear today.

This combined segment highlights mounting frustration over Democratic support for Gilmar Abrego Garcia, an accused MS-13 member with a record of domestic violence and human trafficking. While Democrats advocate for his release, critics expose repeated protective orders and Interpol alerts tied to Garcia. In contrast, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is praised for empowering state officers to enforce immigration law, prompting calls for other Republican governors—like South Carolina's Henry McMaster—to take similar action amid growing concerns over criminal illegal immigrants.

In this soulful and engaging episode, the Archetypal Tarot Podcast welcomes guest Kaity Craven about her “Moonflower Moments” practice with card readings. She invites us into the magical world of intuitive card reading — a journey that's equal parts playful, profound, and occasionally butt-kicking (in the best way). With decks at the ready and intuition in the driver's seat, Kaity, a card and nature-rhythm reader, shows how each card becomes a doorway into deeper questions, unexpected answers, and moments of powerful self-discovery. What I love about Kaity's reading style is that it just FLOWS as she trusts her intuition. She is also unafraid to use MULTIPLE card decks, allowing for a diversity of interpretation. Nature's symbolism is frequent in her readings, and I love how she utilizes the Story Through Stone Reflection Card deck! This episode reveals Kaity's reading style IN ACTION while she gives me a live card reading! Budding and experienced card readers will benefit from observing her trust, style and flow — and you'll definitely want to grab your own deck and play along. Kaity shares how the process is less about having all the answers and more about being a big YES to whatever arises — drawing another card, chasing a curiosity, or exploring a feeling until the “well” feels fully drawn. Whether it's joy, mystery, or a spiritual gut-check, the cards are there to meet you where you are and take you further than you expected. Craving more of Kaity? You can watch her frequent and amazing Youtube videos by becoming a subscriber to Moonflower Moments. I highly recommend a reading with Kaity, she can read over Zoom or phone at reasonable rates.

In this intense discussion, the battle against judicial overreach and the challenges faced by President Trump in enforcing his policies are laid bare. The episode explores the growing influence of radical leftist judges who have imposed 209 legal challenges in just under 100 days, compared to a fraction during Trump's first term. With Congress failing to act, the conversation delves into the potential dangers of relying on the Supreme Court to resolve key immigration issues. The hosts also highlight the risks of creating dangerous legal precedents that could undermine U.S. sovereignty, particularly in the face of open border policies. The episode stresses the importance of Congressional action to curb judicial power and hold leaders accountable.

In this fiery and urgent monologue, the speaker argues that the Trump presidency is being systematically undermined by liberal federal judges—enabled by a passive Republican leadership. Highlighting Ron DeSantis's month-old call to action and Speaker Mike Johnson's inaction, the speaker paints a grim picture of judicial overreach, internal party betrayal, and looming legal warfare against Trump's inner circle. With Supreme Court rulings, open border policies, and the fractures within the GOP, this commentary warns of a political and constitutional crisis barreling down the tracks.

Christina gets real about her journey with control, faith, and money — and how learning to let go changed every area of her life.She shares how early experiences shaped her beliefs about success and security, the pressure she felt to constantly be in control, and the fear that held her back from true peace — especially around money.This episode is an invitation to surrender the grip, rewrite your story, and start trusting that your worth and abundance were never meant to be earned through hustle alone.

These firms have been key drivers of market performance in recent years due to their size, influence, and heavy weighting in indices like the Nasdaq. Bessent suggests that the selloff is primarily driven by issues specific to these tech giants, such as overvaluation, slowing earnings growth, or sector-specific pressures (e.g., competition in AI or shifts in investor sentiment), rather than broader economic or political factors. "Not a MAGA problem": "MAGA" stands for "Make America Great Again," a slogan associated with President Donald Trump and his policy agenda, particularly following his re-election in November 2024. Policies tied to MAGA, like steep tariffs or deregulation, have been speculated to impact markets. Bessent, as Treasury Secretary in Trump's administration, is arguing that the selloff isn't a result of these Trump-related policies but rather stems from the dynamics affecting the Mag7 stocks.

Volkswagen will add import fees to vehicle prices, while Volvo and Mercedes-Benz are considering expanding U.S. manufacturing to avoid the 25% duties, according to Bloomberg. Mercedes may move production of a model to Alabama to offset tariffs and is weighing pulling its cheaper cars from the U.S. after a 58% sales jump in its top-selling import, the GLC SUV. Germany's economy minister backed EU talks with the U.S. but warned of a “clear and decisive response” if no deal is reached, calling the tariffs a risk to global stability. Volkswagen, which builds cars in Tennessee, still imports key models from Europe and Mexico. The U.S. now makes up 20% of its revenue, helped by a 7% sales boost in 2024. BMW imports 60% of its U.S. sales and depends on European parts for its South Carolina plant. Mercedes' Alabama factory faces similar supply chain exposure. Volvo plans to expand U.S. production,
