Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Supercharge Your Year With Retrospection and Prospection July 4, 2025 | Episode 5130 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description It's Independence Day and we're halfway through 2025! Time to get real about where you've been and where you're headed. I'm sharing two uniquely human abilities that my high-performing clients swear by every single day. Forget traditional goal-setting and reflection – this is about feeling your way through the first six months and creating magic in the next six. These aren't just fancy words; they're your secret weapons for staying on track and becoming the person you're meant to be. Featured Story Fresh off a coaching call, Scott shares a powerful conversation with a client who thought his year was "a kick in the knackers" – until Scott reminded him about his new big client, beautiful motorcycle, loving wife, and great kids. It's a perfect example of how we forget our wins and focus on what's wrong. This story illustrates why retrospection isn't just looking back; it's about feeling the truth of your journey and recognizing what you've actually created in your life. Important Points Retrospection and prospection are uniquely human abilities that your pets can't do – only you can look back with feeling and create forward with intention. Most people blow through these exercises superficially the first time, so expect to dig deeper on your third or fourth attempt before it clicks. Clarity is the number one thing in personal transformation, followed immediately by getting rid of the clutter that's holding you back. Memorable Quotes "You as a human have the very unique ability to go come up with an idea and go create it." "Do not get down on yourself if you haven't figured it out yet – I've seen very smart people take months to get it dialed in." "You can prospectively decide what you want to create today and then just go make it happen." Scott's Three-Step Approach Look back retrospectively at your first six months of 2025 and feel how it went – not just think about it, but actually feel whether it matched your expectations. Move into prospection by deciding what you'll create in the second half of the year from a life experience perspective, not just goals. Practice this daily in 60 seconds, or spend five minutes doing it for the whole year, and watch your life transform. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Americans will mark Independence Day with flags, parades, and fireworks. The traditions endure, even as the democratic ideals they're meant to celebrate appear increasingly hollow. It's been 249 years since the United States broke away from British rule, and over the past year, it seems to have broken away from the global order it once helped shape, and from the foundational principles of reason and integrity. Within the U.S., this unraveling feels like a national crisis. From outside its borders, it resembles an unplanned, chaotic revolution. This Fourth of July, the message from the world is clear: it, too, is seeking independence - from America.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (07/04/25), Hank notes that as Americans celebrate Independence Day today, it is important to remind ourselves of the fundamental purpose of the United States as set forth in the preamble to the Constitution: “to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”. To discuss what is essential to know about our particular Government, Hank introduces a special presentation of his conversation with Professor Francis Beckwith, author of Politics for Christians: Statecraft as Soulcraft.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, and happy Fourth of July to all our listeners tuning in today! In this episode, your host Hunter invites you to join him as he journeys through day 186 of the year, reading from 2 Kings 15 and 16, Hosea 1, and Hebrews 1. Together, you'll witness the tumultuous reigns of Israel and Judah's kings, the heartache and prophecy in the story of Hosea, and the ultimate message of hope and love declared in the opening chapter of Hebrews. Hunter encourages us to hear not just words of judgment, but Christ's words of belonging and love spoken over our lives. As you listen, you'll be guided through prayer, reflection, and a reminder that—no matter where you are or what day it is—you are truly loved. So grab your Bible, settle in, and let's let the Scripture shape our hearts today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: God's final word is not judgment, but life. Throughout the long story of Israel, we see a heartbreaking pattern—God reaching out in love through the prophets, but the people turning away again and again. The story we heard today, through the tragedy of Hosea and Gomer, is a vivid picture of this unfaithfulness: Israel behaving like a wayward spouse, wandering far from her first love. The consequences are deeply painful—names like “Not Loved” and “Not My People” are spoken over Israel, words that carry the weight of loss and separation from God. But God doesn't leave the story there. His final word to us isn't one of rejection or shame. The book of Hebrews begins by telling us that, though God once spoke through the prophets, now he has spoken to us by his Son. And the words that Christ speaks over us are utterly different. They are words of embrace, words of forgiveness and peace, words that say, “You are my people and you are loved.” Through Jesus, God has made a way for us to come home. Not by our own striving, not by following a set of laws or rituals, but by receiving the gift of his love and belonging poured out through Christ. The words that once named us “outsiders” are replaced by the words of the gospel: “Beloved, you belong.” Wherever the message of Jesus is received, hearts are changed. The reality of belonging, being chosen and loved by God, takes root deep inside, and everything changes. So today, hold fast to these words that Jesus speaks over you. Don't let the old words of judgment or shame take hold. Let the gospel's word—“You are mine, you are loved”—sink in and bring you peace. That is my prayer for my own soul today. That is my prayer for my family—for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that is my prayer for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

It's the Fourth of July, and she might be a little dinged up, but after 249 years, America is still standing. And she will keep standing as long as there are independent Americans out there to stay vigilant and ensure that the torch that Lady Liberty holds high above her head as a beacon for all stays lit. And this show will always stay vigilant. Especially on Independence Day. Or INDEPENDENTS Day! It's a time for us all to reflect on what independence really means. And explore who will stand up now and fight for it. Men and women of all backgrounds—united in a love for America. And a dedication to making it better. Men and women like the fine residents of New York's 17th that are represented by this episode's guest. He's Republican Congressman Mike Lawler—and he's here to mix it up with Paul and react to the New York mayor's race, Ukraine, the AUMF, Trump's Iran strikes, the dropping popularity of his party, and his support for veterans. He's been effective in representing a rare moderate perspective inside the GOP. It's how he has won in a 2 to 1 Democrat district. And how he might try and win the New York governor's seat next year. It's America's birthday and after the start to this year, we could all use a break. So put your feet up, kick back and press play. Listen now or watch us on YouTube.

Send us a textA nation and world altering event took place on July 4, 1776 in Philadelphia when 56 representatives of 13 British colonies signed the Declaration of Independence from Great Britain.The Declaration is America's original founding document and is “the most consequential enumeration of the fundamental and unalienable Rights of Mankind as irrevocably endowed by our Creator.”Today in a special Independence Day program, we're going to commemorate this bold act that altered our nation from being yet another British colony under the King and Church of England. Instead, America became a Constitutional Republic that separates power from the dictates of one king into branches of government and elected representatives of the people. We will examine what led to the Declaration of Independence and the impact it made on America, even to this day.The Bible says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord” (Psalm 33). While this specifically refers to Israel, there is general blessing for any nation that reveres and obeys God. God has greatly blessed America. The question going forward as we increasingly rebel against Him is: Will America repent and honor God?
Over the last two and a half centuries people in the US have used July 4 to make their stand against injustice, inequality, and oppression, and demand their rights. From an infamous speech by Frederick Douglass to women suffragists demanding the right to vote, civil rights protests, and a historic farm workers' march, today we look at moments of July 4 resistance.This is episode 55 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange. Independent investigative journalism, supported by Global Exchange's Human Rights in Action program. Each week, we'll bring you stories of resistance like this. Inspiration for dark times.

We discuss Inclusive Constitutionalism, a fresh way to interpret the Constitution that makes inclusive democracy real. By contrast, originalism interprets the meaning of the Constitution as fixed in time in the 1800s and ignores the constitutional amendments during reconstruction that were designed to foster a multiracial democracy. Madiba's civic action toolkit recommendations are: Join or form a local union! Pay attention to state and local courts. Madiba Dennie is Deputy Editor and Senior Contributor at the critical legal commentary outlet Balls and Strikes. Her debut book is The Originalism Trap: How Extremists Stole the Constitution and How We The People Can Take it Back. Let's connect!

The Season 8 bonus episode of Rootsland titled American Dreamland embarks on a profound exploration of the American Dream, through the reflective dialogues of host Henry K and co-host Sia. The episode commences with festivities surrounding Independence Day, which serves as a thematic anchor for discussing the aspirations and expectations tied to this quintessentially American ideal. Sia's recollections of her youth in Jamaica provide a poignant lens through which the American Dream is examined; she recalls the excitement and hope that accompanied her thoughts of America, a land perceived as a beacon of opportunity. Her narrative is not merely nostalgic but serves as a catalyst for a deeper inquiry into what the American Dream signifies to contemporary society. As the conversation unfolds, a critical examination of the present-day realities reveals a dissonance between the aspirational narratives of the past and the struggles many individuals face today. The hosts engage in a candid discussion about the perception that the American Dream has become a mere illusion, with Sia explicitly stating her belief that it feels 'dead' for many. Yet, Henry offers a counterpoint, suggesting that the dream is not extinguished but instead obscured, akin to a hidden treasure that requires active pursuit and belief to uncover.
