It's quite a time to be alive, and in this episode with incredible artist Luke Schroeder (@lukeschroederart) we explore ways to use imagination, clear communication and truth seeking, and key actions to create a better world. The transition won't be easy, but it will be incredibly rewarding! In 10 years we can be living in systems that are healthy, rewarding, regenerative - if we orient towards a future where that can come forth. We have a lot of the ideas we need as a culture, it's time to bring them into the forefront of our minds and take action on them.  In this episode you will find key ways to re-engage with life, community and connection, such as:  Acknowledging we are ecosystems ourselves, and honoring our microbiomes Meeting in person and having open, longer form conversations Using Nonviolent Communication - not sure where to start? Order the book! Accessing the rich plethora of plant medicines and psychedelics that exist to heal our minds and our bodies Confronting our own cynicism. Realizing that everything we buy or participate in is a vote for that thing to keep persisting. Our individual choices matter - we have so many grassroots things we can do. Don't wear polyester, don't buy from factory farms, but also know that no one is perfect.  Coordinating an open flow of information, and using that to turn the marketplace we live in to a democratic system by working together in this way.  Coming up with a precise set of demands of things that we want to see happen so that when we protest, we get the full spectrum of changes we want because we're so clear on our deeper set of demands and our plans.   Meditation and nature connection practices. Books and Podcasts Luke recommends to help understand and navigate these times:  Guns, Germs and Steel - how did the continent of Europe come to dominate the world the way it has? Overview of the society and situation we find ourselves in.  The Closing of the Western Mind by Charles Freeman - Explores the rise of Christianity and fall of philosophical paradigms of Rome and antiquities.  Unruly Americans Woody Holton  Elinor Ostrom - Environmental writer and researcher analyzing how people solve the problems of the commons and communal resources use.   Podcast - What is Politics?

We can all learn a lot from how great managers handle criticism. Dealing with criticism at work is not easy and as you climb the ranks, you are guaranteed to get more criticism. Take these 5 key actions to handle criticism at work.It is really easy to get defensive or dismiss criticism without thinking about what is behind the criticism. How you handle criticism at work in part will determine how far your career progresses.  The better you get at dealing with criticism and in particular reframing criticism into learning opportunities, the more useful you will find feedback, the more comfortable colleagues will feel providing feedback and the quicker you will learn. All great building blocks for a successful career. The first action in how effective leaders handle criticism is to listen carefully and acknowledge the criticism. Working to understand what is behind the criticism gives you great insights into problems, attitudes and thinking. How to deal with criticism positively should always start with listening carefully.  The second action in how to deal with criticism is to ask questions to get the specifics. Most people criticise others in general terms. By asking questions, you can guide them to giving you very specific feedback, which then become useful to you.  The third action for how to handle criticism is to find the kernels of truth. “What is behind the criticism?” “Should I do something about it?” and “What can I do about it?” are all questions to ask to find the kernels of truth behind the criticism. Dealing with criticism is part of the job description of any manager and leader.  The fourth action for how to handle criticism at work is to create an action plan. There is not better way to deal with criticism than to take positive action to address the criticism. Work out what, if any, actions you are going to take to address criticism.  The fifth action for dealing with negative criticism is to practice receiving feedback. The better you get at managing your emotions and reactions when receiving criticism, the more likely you will get good at handling criticism in a very positive way, which will benefit you, your team and the business. Don't take criticism personally where at all possible. Look to learn as much as you can from the criticism, regardless if it is justified or fair or not.  If you have any questions on “How Great Managers Handle Criticism – 5 Key Actions to Take”, please email me at support@enhance.training JessEnhance.training

The conversation focused on the importance of employee engagement and how to retain employees. Leaders in the tech and organization space shared their best practices for creating a culture of engagement. It was highlighted that employee engagement is a critical factor for an organization's success, as research shows that when employees feel engaged, they are more likely to stay with the company. Five key actions leaders can take to keep their employees engaged were identified, including creating a positive work experience, providing regular feedback, offering challenging opportunities, being transparent about key decisions, and recognizing and rewarding employees for their hard work. With these steps, leaders can create an environment of engagement and a culture of trust, ultimately helping their employees feel more engaged and invested in their work.00:01:00 Cheetung Leong, Co-Founder of Engage Rocket - How Leaders Can Leverage Data to Keep Employees Engaged 00:02:30 Shirin Nikaein, Founder of Upful AI on How Fair Assessments are Critical for Employee Engagement 00:04:00How a Vision for Success Helps Keep Employees Engaged - Tim Sackett  00:05:18The Roles Coaching and Employee Development Plays in Employee Engagement - Emily Farr00:06:29Open and Transparent Communication and Its Impact on Employee Engagement - Lisa First Willis Music Credit: Maarten Schellekens - Riviera Follow us at: www.cascadingleadership.comlinkedin.com/in/drjimklinkedin.com/in/1lawrenceobrown

Frailty doesn't have to be your reality as you age. With the right approach, it's possible to maintain a vibrant and active lifestyle, even in your 60s, 70s and beyond. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Anurag Singh, the Chief Medical Officer at Timeline Nutrition, who also runs a Switzerland-based research company working to discover and develop novel nutritional compounds that target improvements in mitochondrial health.  We delve into the three essential elements that contribute to your overall well-being as you age: diet, exercise, and supplementation. According to Dr. Singh, one of the most important factors is maintaining the health of your mitochondria. With age, these powerhouses of your cells can decline, leaving you feeling tired and unable to do the things you enjoy. You'll discover how to know if your mitochondrial health is declining and steps you can take to keep them functioning at their best. Muscle health is critical, and maintaining it requires a sufficient intake of protein. After focusing on diet and an active lifestyle, specific supplements can further promote your health and support your energy levels, which we explore in this enlightening discussion. We also discuss the exciting area of mitophagy, the process by which faulty mitochondria are eliminated and replaced with healthy ones. Dr. Singh shares information about a test he developed and the latest research on urolithin A, a food-based compound that plays a role in mitophagy and cellular health in ground-breaking ways.

This is how Marie-Claire Ross summarised our lively discussion about leadership and trust:

http://bible.com/events/48967417 Church of the Nazarene - Harrisonburg When God Seems Silent When God Seems Silent: "Are you listening? Is there sin?" What should I do when God appears not to be speaking? The truth is that God always desires to speak to us, if we “have ears to hear.” There were times in history when God was literally silent, we believe on this side of the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ he is never actually silent today. He longs to speak to us, and he does that through many different ways.‭‭ Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11-14‬‬ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”-The Hebrew word 'seek' means to seek with a purpose, to seek with the expressed intention of finding. This is not aimless wandering. -What happens when we seek Him like that (verse 13)? -First, we seek Him. The very act of seeking Him compounds: it leads to more seeking. Active listening produces listening and more listening. -Second, we will find Him. Seeking Him leads to finding Him. Active listening produces hearing. To seek Him with desperation means obstacles must be overcome. Sometimes we cannot hear His voice because something is blocking the connection: sin.‭‭ Psalms‬ ‭66:16-20‬‬ Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me. I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer. Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me! This incredible truth causes us to be humbled and hopeful. -What is humbling? You could be seeking the Lord, but because of sin in your heart, you could also be totally missing what God is trying to say to you, in spite of His efforts to speak. -What is hopeful? When we confess our sin and turn to the Lord, He forgives us. Our connection to God is restored.‭‭ 1 John‬ ‭1:9 ‬‬If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Bottom Line: If we are serious about seeking the Lord, we will be serious about confessing our sin. Verses for further study & reflection: Luke 18:1-8 Psalm 19:1 Romans 1:20 1 Kings 19:12 Isaiah 59:1-2 Psalm 28:1 The three Key Actions in Pursuit of God Listening John 10:27-2827 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. Revelation 3:20 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. Seeking Matthew 7:7-87 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. James 4:8a 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Waiting Isaiah 40:31 (NKJV) But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. Psalm 27:14 Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heartand wait for the Lord.

How does the mercy you have received from God impact how you treat or respond to others? Mercy includes compassion, tenderness, forgiveness, and an unwillingness to be cruel. We know the Lord's mercy never ceases (glory!), but how about your mercy? How about my mercy? Key: Actions cannot stand alone; mercy stems from the heart, so it must stem from the core of our being.

Did you see the darkness giving way to the light? Did you notice streams of light coming from the sun or the sun's brightness as it begins to climb higher in the sky?  As I was walking along the beach, the sun was rising. As usual, it was lighting a pathway on the water. I stopped walking to pause and look. As I marveled at its splendor, God gently reminded me that His mercies are new every morning.

While the Southern Baptist Convention continues to lament the Guidepost report on sexual abuse, there were some critical steps missed over the last few years. How did the SBC miss with the Predator Database? What can a Predator Database tell us about the movement of abusers within the Church? How can the Church use data and technology to recognize potential abusers in their report? Why has it taken so long to put reforms in place? These are some of the questions we attempt to answer in this week's episode of the Thriving in Ministry Podcast.  I'm Kyle Willis, Founder of Talanton Church Services, and as always Dr. Dace Clifton, from DailyPastor.com and also a SBC pastor from Central Texas.

We all know that there are a collection of 4 letter words you shouldn't use in polite conversation, which except in the most gruff environments, you especially wouldn't use at work. Today, I want to talk about another 4 letter word. It's one you hear all the time, and may have even used yourself. Yet, despite pop culture often glorifying it, it's not good, which is why today I'm talking about it. The word: BOSS. In this episode, we explain the important differences between being a boss and a leader. We also teach you how to overcome the challenges of stopping being a boss and becoming a leader your time wants to follow. Show Notes and Key Actions for You to Take: To stop being a boss, and become a great, servant leader:   Admit it. Tell your team you want to pay more attention to their needs and be more empowering. Admit you've been bossy. Listen. Let your team vent. They're likely frustrated with you in a variety of ways. Shields down. Some of it will hurt. Try not to be too defensive. Ask for examples so you can develop more empathy from them. Take action. Whatever they tell you, look for ways to make them feel heard. Something small and incremental right away is better than a big gesture that takes a long time. Stay committed. It will not happen over night. You have to keep working at it and over time your team will believe in you more. Focus on buy in. Bosses make a lot of decisions on their own. To change, start soliciting your team's feedback, and incorporate what you can. Keep listening. It's a never ending journey to empower and involve your team. And chance takes time for you to fully embrace and for your team to believe.    Links for Further Reading and Learning: You can listen to Dan Pink's excellent post on bringing out the best in your employees in his TED talk here called“The Puzzle of Motivation”.

Vor wenigen Tagen hat die EU-Kommission die Retail-Payments-Strategie vorgestellt. Das Papier ist eine Vision auf Basis von 17 Key Actions für eine europäische Payment-Strategie. Die Kommission blickt darin mit Sorge auf die BigTechs und deren Ambitionen im Payment-Sektor Fuß zu fassen. Deshalb hat sich Brüssel viel vorgenommen und erwägt etwa eine gesetzliche Verpflichtung zur Akzeptanz von bargeldlosen Zahlungen, einen EU-Standard für QR-Codes, technische und regulatorische Unterstützungen für pan-europäische Zahlverfahren, ein „Lex Apple Pay Plus“ und vieles mehr. Die Strategie soll auf vier Säulen fußen: (1) Einer wachsenden Zahl von europaweiten Digital- und Instant Payment-Zahlungslösungen. (2) Einem „innovativen und wettbewerbsfähigen Paymentmarkt“. (3) Effiziente und interoperable Paymentsysteme und (4) effizienten internationalen Zahlungsmöglichkeiten, inklusive Überweisungen. Wie immer hat der Blogger-Kollegen Hanno Bender vom Bargeldlosblog, ein regelmäßiger Podcast-Gast bei uns, eine gute Quelle. Noch vor Erscheinen des Papiers hat Hanno eine sehr lesenswerte Analyse in seinem Blog geschrieben und die darin die wesentlichen Punkte zusammengefasst. Jochen und Kilian haben Hanno erneut als Gast in den aktuellen Podcast eingeladen um das Papier und die EU-Payment Strategie zu analysieren. Sie haben sich zu dritt die wichtigsten Punkte herausgepickt und diese dann sowohl kritisch als auch wohlwollend diskutiert und analysiert.

Hosted by TNC's CEO, John Waterhouse, and CTO, Craig Northveth, Down The Wire Podcast brings you Episode 2: 'Key Actions to Make Network Transformation Cost Effective'. The world is divided into those who have started to transform and those who know they need to transform.

In this episode, Jehoshaphat was king of Judah following Asa's reign, and he was king of Judah at the same time that Ahab was king of Israel. So he was contemporary with Elijah and Elisha, although these two prophets belonged to Israel, and not to Judah. These two chapters from Second Chronicles reveal one of the great periods in the history of the southern kingdom, based in Jerusalem. Individual people have complex characters, with many aspects, having both commendable and less worthy features. Even more so are whole societies much more complex than mere individuals, being made up of many different and complex people. This story emphasises the need for justice, which was a point at which many problems arose continually through the Old Testament story. KEY ACTIONS 1. Restoration of the true Worship of God (17:1-6) 2. Re-establishment of teachers of the Word of God (17:7-9) 3. Reverence for God among the nations (17:10) In the 20th Chapter Jehoshaphat demonstrates complete dependance on God 1. Recognized the problem - Fear (v.1-4,12) 2. Relied on God (v.5) 3. Requested for protection from a faithful God (v.6-12) 4. Responded in Praise (v. 20-23) 5. Reaped God's provision and victory (v.17-24,ff)

Contagious Joy – Joy in Humility A Walk through the Book of Philippians (week 5) Sermon Summary Philippians 2:1–4 (ESV) 1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.   As we move into chapter two of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Philippian Church, Pastor Chris highlights an essential message for Jesus’ disciples to live-out: a lifestyle of Humility. The paradox is that greatness comes through genuine humility. Our culture makes “tooting your own horn” an acceptable activity. Acommon practice of secular society is to promote pride, to engage in self-promotion, the fruit of selfish-ambition. Pride was the first sin, committed by God’s first created being – Lucifer,the ‘Day Star. Son of the Morning.’ “13 You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high….14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.15But, you are brought down to Sheol (place of the dead)…’”Isaiah 14:13-15 (ESV)   In contrast, humble people who follow in the footsteps of the Lord Jesus inherently find joy in serving others. Humility bears the fruit of assurance, dependence (on God), authenticity, and thankfulness. “2 All these things my hand has made, and so all these things came to be, declares the Lord. But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.” Isaiah 66:2 (ESV)   “6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God…gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6 (ESV)   Humility vs. Pride: Pride Humility About my glory About the glory of Jesus Christ Makes me my own “god” Celebrating God serving me in love Leads to arrogance, cockiness, smugness Leads to confidence Is independence Is dependence Is controlling Relinquishes control Our greatest enemy Our greatest friend Is demonic and satanic Is Christ-like and Spirit-enabled     Four Actions of Humility 1. Humility Builds Churches Strong and Healthy 2. Our Goal is the Humility of Jesus 3. God Humbled Himself 4. Humility is Exalted   To the Apostle Paul, humility was the essence of unity in the church. He worked hard to demonstrate by his own example that a life of humility was challenging but rewarding. “5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.” Philippians 2:5–7 (ESV) Paul knew the disciples had witnessed Jesus in the flesh showing them what a humble lifestyle looks like. His effort was to be as much like Christ as he’d heard about. “12 When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, ‘Do you understand what I have done to you? 13 You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. 14 If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you.’” John 13:12–15 (ESV) Ultimately, Pastor Chris encouraged us, humility transformed Jesus so that God might exalt Him. His name became powerful and brought glory to God the Father. Jesus exaltation was fourfold: resurrection, coronation, intercession, ascension. “9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:9-10   3 Thoughts on Pride 1. God hates proud people Proverbs 6:16–17 (ESV) 16 There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, Proverbs 8:13 (ESV) 13 The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate. 2. God humiliates proud people Proverbs 16:5 (ESV) 5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord; be assured, he will not go unpunished. Proverbs 16:18 (ESV) 18 Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. 3. God opposes proud people James 4:6 (ESV) 6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” 1 Peter 5:5 (ESV) 5 Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”   3 Key Actions to Cultivate Humility 1. Live Thankfully 2. Listen and agree with Word more than your thoughts 3. Invite and pursue correction and counsel   Discussion Questions 1. How do react when you hear an arrogant person at work or school? What thoughts come to mind? 2. Thinking about Paul’s message in chapter two, what do you suppose the followers in the Philippian church were struggling with? How do Christians today struggle with the same issues; how are they evident in the church? 3. Why do you think God hates pride so much? 4. How do you recognize your own prideful thoughts?   Application Questions 1. What steps will you take this week to uncover prideful thoughts and manners in your life? 2. Who will you share with, and ask prayer from, this week to replace your pride with humility?

The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Text LEARNERS to 44222 Full show notes can be found at www.LearningLeader.com Episode #352: Patrick Lencioni - The Five Key Actions Of Excellent Leaders Notes: Leaders who sustain excellence = Humility - They don't feel they are more important than others, but they realize that their words and actions carry more weight. "Leadership is a privilege... It's about serving others. A lot of leaders lead because they think it looks cool." "Leadership has to be about what you can give, not what you can get." Exploring the two leadership motives: Reward-centered leadership: the belief that being a leader is the reward for hard work, and therefore, that the experience of being a leader should be pleasant and enjoyable, avoiding anything mundane, unpleasant or uncomfortable. Responsibility-centered leadership: the belief that being a leader is a responsibility, and therefore that the experience of leading should be difficult and challenging (though certainly not without elements of personal gratification). One of the questions to ask yourself: “How do you see your job in terms of verbs?” — what do you do to really help the business? The leader must be a constant, incessant reminder of the company’s purpose, strategy, values, & priorities.  You’re not only the CEO, you’re the CRO.” Chief Reminding Officer The actions of great leaders: Running great meetings Managing the executive team Managing the executives as individuals Having difficult conversations with people Constantly communicating and repeating key messages to employees "The CEO should have the most painful job in the company." For the mid-level manager -- "Am I waking up with the right rationale to do this job?" Love is a verb: Time Affection Discipline "Leadership is not a noun, it's a verb." Running great meetings: "Meetings are the central activity of leadership.  Bad leaders have other people run their meetings." Good meetings have debate and conflict.  People are able to be passionate without consequence.  The leader prioritizes what will be talked about. CEO's are responsible to build teams.  Your job is to build teams based on trust When receiving a message from a cynical leader who says "You don't understand."  Our response? "No, we're not going to be that way.  The ones who do the hard work change the world." Micro-managing vs. Accountability: "There is an abdication of management.  You should know what your team is doing." Parenting: "The great news about being a parent is it's humbling." The leader must be the chief reminding officer: "Constant, incessant, reminder of the company's purpose, strategy, values, and priorities. You must over-communicate." Marriage advice: "Be completely humble, vulnerable, especially in front of the kids.  Engage in healthy conflict.  When people can't argue, that's a problem."

Steve:  Welcome To The Becoming Your Best Podcast. This is Steve Shallenberger your host. I’m excited to talk about the subject today. It’s how to stay motivated and 6 Key Actions that you can take to stay highly motivated. As we think about Becoming Your Best and the 12 Principles of Highly Successful Leaders, I’ve been thinking about never giving up, that’s principle #12.  Each one of the Principles alone is important but alone really, insufficient by themselves. It’s how they work together that creates a chemistry of excellence. Never give up   is a decision to keep going, it is a pattern of employing the other 11 principles and in the process of working on our vision and goals, of Becoming Your Best, while experiencing success, failure, making pivots, failing again, succeeding, succeeding, failing, learning and moving forward to a great place.  Never Giving Up is at the heart of success for all humanity. It is a principle, a force of human will, will power of overcoming setbacks, learning, never giving up and making progress.  Sometimes spectacular progress. The subject today is part of Never Giving Up and a vital component, even a full cousin and it is  Staying Motivated to Reach Our Vision and Goals! Whether you’re a Sales Person, CEO, Division Leader, Parent, Coach, Teacher, Professional (Doc, Dentist, Lawyer, Accountant, etc.) Student, technician, truck driver and so forth the STAKES ARE HIGH!  Our level of motivation can literally determine our success!  Our level of motivation is like a light burning without that radiates everywhere without.  One of our five sons is working as a Sales Rep in Chicago and it’s very interesting because he has some very clear goals, a great skill set and deciding to make a difference is a mental state and it literally drives us to a high level of achievement but it is the motivation that is the drive line that is helping Tommy be successful every single day. One of the things that Tommy has done to help reinforce this motivation is he’s chosen my wife (and I get to be the bystander to reporting each day). She is his accountability partner. He calls her every single day and reports how it’s going. This is one of the ways Tommy is able to sustain a high level of motivation and it’s paying off. He’s one of the very top in this business. Towards the end of his wonderful and amazing life, Stephen Covey and I went to lunch one day and we were talking about what were the most important things that he taught. And out of all the things that he taught, the 7 Habits and the other things, he said, these are the two: P/PC balance – Probability now and Profit Capability. The PC is the ability to produce profits over a long period of time. Our ability to balance these in a successful way are what determines our long term success. So if you focus too much on profitability this year, you can burn yourself out at the expense of your PC. If you focus too much on the PC then your P suffers this year. It’s this balance. The second of the concepts that he felt were the greatest that he taught, was that the private victory precedes the public victory. I love this concept and it is as true today as it was over his illustrious career where he touched millions throughout the world. This is what I’d like us to think about is that the private victory has a huge impact on our public victory in terms of sustaining high motivation. So in preparation for this podcast, here at BYB, we have been doing research throughout the world on this very subject:  How Do You Stay Motivated or What Discourages You or What keeps you from staying highly motivated .  The findings from this research have had a huge impact for me on better understanding what people do to stay motivated or what discourages them. I appreciate the feedback from our many listeners around the world. This has been so helpful. Staying motivated is both a science and an art. I have culled from the feedback from the research on this study and developed this into 6 key actions you can take to stay motivated. The opposite of being motivated is to be discouraged.  This can vastly impact your happiness, joy and productivity, not to mention your quality of life.  This is especially true is you are suffering from fiery adversity.  The fact is:  The STAKES ARE HIGH in our lives. What can you do  (what can I do?) to stay highly motivated? So here are the 6 things that I have called from this research and I’ll try to really touch on some of the various thoughts that have been given – I’ll weave them into the 6 thoughts as well. Follow your vision, goals and pre-week planning. This is huge in terms of staying highly motivated. Dr Oz recently said, “Your heart needs a reason to keep beating.” That is what we put into our vision. What is the reason that we have for living? So making it passionate, exciting and meaningful. This is the head point, the starting point, the head gates, the direction we want to move in life including love, relationships and doing great things with your talents.  This REASON is articulated it in a vision and cascading now through smart annual goals and being executed pre-week planning.  This is a process that inspires leadership and action. And literally as you embrace these experiences, you recognize the daily victories that you have!  It’s interesting as through this study, I’ve realized that ,money as a goal is important, but it was far from the biggest factor in keeping people highly motivated.  So this is an important part of our  vision and goals and pre week planning to be financially reliant and ahead of the game but it’s not the most important think that keep us highly motivated. One fellow said, “Money isn’t important, but it does rank right up there with oxygen.”  Well, what’s so important about pre-week planning is it helps you to put it all together.  It helps you to visualize your success, the things that count most to stay highly motivated.  The components of that that do help us maintain this high motivation is Exercise, meditation, doing good things, working on balance; so it’s this whole package of key things that allows us to stay at the top of our game. Some people said in the survey and in our research to  make a game for achievement.  So, daily execution in sales is a good example if that happens to be your business. I recall, when I was going through college, during the Summers, I was a  door-to-door book salesman for the South Western Company also for Eagle Systems International. Here was the game that I made: this was Door-to-Door sales, everyone was a potential customer – we just didn’t know it until we  opened the door. So everything was pretty fast hitting. The game was to give 20 demos in morning, afternoon and evening.  People in the area that I worked in called me “The Running Book Salesman.” I literally run from door to door so I could achieve that goal. I did that  - the result was that it would help me be the Top Sale Reps in the company. And so, these are things you can do: vision, so you really follow your vision, annual goals that are set by roles – so what are going to do in the personal aspect, family and friends, professionally and civically? This very clear focus of smart goals meaning very specific achievable, measurable, relevant to your vision and timely – they help us stay focused. And then it’s down to the implementation, pre week planning which is simply this: taking a few minutes during the weekend, 20-30 minutes to think through the lens of your roles, the key roles that you have in your life and what are the actions that matter most. And then you mesh that in to when you’re do them with your existing goals and so you set up your week so you can win and succeed. This focus really helps you control the things that you can control. It’s interesting because when you follow a focus on these things, you’re literally working on what you can control and not wasting your time or your focus to things you cannot control. This focus has a huge impact on being able to stay highly motivated. Just one quck footnote before we go on the number 2 , from the study, these are actually the things that discourage people:  Not living up to my potential, not getting things done/procrastination, having negative thoughts or when things don’t pan out that’s what leads to discourage. This next one is really interesting - no recognition, direction, or deadline. This one of no recognition from others is important. Biases, and lack of finances. So what I found is our annual goals and Pre-week planning really help with every one of those. They really help you control the things you can control and work on those type of things so you end up on the other side of the ledger. Now, we actually listed in a graphic pie chart each of the top of these 6 things. Here is number 2. Belief in a higher power. This was ranked way up there in helping people remain highly motivated. And expressing gratitude and recognition of this belief in a higher power. What this does is that when people believe in a higher power, they recognize the potential they have.  My friend Zig Ziglar used to say, “God don’t make no junk!”  How true that is! You are special and have God-given capabilities and capacity.  There is a higher purpose in life.  This belief can provide enormous motivation.  This belief will help you LOVE yourself and realize how good you really are. At least that’s my take on it. That’s why so many people I think rank this as such a high force or influence in their life to stay highly motivated. Prayer and meditation. These are major influences on staying highly motivated. This reminded me of both George Washington and Abe Lincoln. Two of the very most significant historical influences to impact on our world particularly on the United States and being key figures on setting up and establishing a government a constitution, a way of living that has influenced all of us in our modern world and billions of people. George Washington in the very depths of despair in trying to stay motivated – he needed, as the leader of this force – this continental army who were fighting for their very lives, needed to stay upbeat and motivated. Our home and others, that I’ve seen that we have this great painting by Arnold Freeberg of George Washington kneeling in prayer. There’s many accounts of this of this is where he gained his strength to stay focused and motivated. Abe Lincoln, during the battle of Geddessburg, he went to his study and knelt in prayer and asked for divine help, that they were able to be successful in the battlefield. He relates that this gave him a great sense of peace and confidence  and people were marveling while many were leaving Washington during that battle of Geddesburg and the event that the confederate army would have been victorious, Abe Lincoln said, “I’m staying.” During this time, he was very motivated. This is the account that he gave. Meditation and reflecting on the things that count most are very helpful to us. Associate with other upbeat motivated people. Have fun. Recognize others for the good that they do.  Failure to recognize others and their contribution does leads to discouragement.  On both sides of this – we are going to determined to control what we can control but we can control recognizing others. So let’s associate with other people that are like minded. In this regard, I am so fortunate. I’m fortunate to have an upbeat family. My work associates are amazing, high achievers and they focus in all aspects on their lives in being upbeat and having fun. A good example is at a conference last week, a number of us executives went to. Just before the evening or the afternoon session of the conference, we went out to a Go Kart place which was not too far away. And we had a great time. We survived the Go Kart experience together. My back got slightly rearranged but we work hard and we play hard. We have upbeat language and actions and consideration and respect for each other’s. All of these things literally create a culture of high motivation. It doesn’t we don’t have challenges. It doesn’t mean we don’t have set backs and problems.  How we approach it really is a big deal.  So have an accountability partner on positive goals.  If possible, stay away from chronically negative people.   Let’s go over these first four: Follow your vision, goals and pre week playing. Belief in a higher power – everybody isn’t going to do that in the way you do it, but that is one of the results of this survey from across the board for what people can do. If it’s helpful, it’s something you can think about. Prayer and Meditation and the strength, peace and depth it can give you. Associate with other motivated, upbeat people.   Fill your mind with upbeat, inspiring thoughts. This is something that you can control. I like what William James wrote, “The greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering the attitudes of their minds as you think, so shall you be. These are things you can control for example like: Read great stuff, listen (podcasts, TED talks, motivation materials, upbeat soundtracks), Learn – literally as you learn, you increase size of hippocampus. The size of your hippocampus, it directly impacts the health of your brain, body and your life. Memorize upbeat poems. I love doing this. This does the very same thing as in filling your brain with the right kind of stuff. Share learnings and experiences with others.  One of the people that I met last week in a seminar came up to me afterwards said ‘I loved being here today. I love the thought of BYB. I’ve been thinking about motivating thoughts. And I’ve created a journal where I’m writing these down. And in the morning, when I wake up, I look at the journal and it helps me continue this process. When I say fill your mind with upbeat  and inspiring thoughts, I mention soundtracks, movies, whatever. I like things like “Amazing Grace,” with William Wilbur Force, Apollo 13, Rudy, Remember The Titans, The Sound Of Music, The Legend Of Bagger Vance, Rocky and so forth. These are all little things that we just keep doing little by little. Positive Self Talk and affirmations (include this type of language in your vision). I like what Ralph Waldo Emerson said: “Sow a thought and you reap an act. Sow an action and you reap a habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny. And that’s what we’re talking about here. Positive self talk and affirmations. This the type of language that you include in your vision. So a good example of this one is “Today is going to be a great day.” That is an affirmation. “I do great work.” These are the type of things we can put in our vision and fill our minds. Positive Talk. The body is very obedient.  The body will conform to what we ask it to do. One of the great examples of this. One of my first companies – ESI we have over 700 hundred sales reps and they would go out and of course be positive with every single client or customer. We would hold a training with all of them before the launched out to all of their assigned areas in the United States and as we worked on positive self talk and one of the things we would work on is, we would say together, three times, but they may need to say it 10 or 20 times or as many times as they were going to their areas: “I Feel Healthy, I feel happy. I feel  terrific. “ At  first they may not have felt healthy, happy and terrific. They may have felt lousy and discouraged and down in the dumps. But as they said, “I Feel Healthy, I feel happy. I feel  terrific,” over and over , pretty soon they found themselves feeling that way. It literally impacts the body on releasing endorphins and changing how you feel. So those are 6 things that you can do that came from this research. I’m just going to review it one more time. Follow your vision, goals and pre week planning.

**UPDATE: Download Jason's new book, Creativity for Sale for FREE here: www.creativityforsale.com/radical EPISODE 34: Jason SurfrApp sold off his last name to the highest bidder twice, making over $100,000 in the process. If you listen to what prompted him to come up with and execute this wild idea (besides the profit), you won't judge him for selling out. Before that, he founded IWearYourShirt.com, a company where clients paid him to wear t-shirts and which generated over $1,000,000 in revenue. He also made a big chunk of cash by getting 20o+ sponsors for his new book, CREATIVITY FOR SALE (currently $13 on Amazon, but available FREE  to download for Radical Tribe listeners). I have a casual yet very interesting conversation with Jason where we chat about various topics, from his beginnings as an entrepreneur to coming up with crazy business ideas and profiting from them.  Here's what you will learn in this case study: Why and how he sold off his last name - twice. How Jason and his partner landed Kanye West as a client for their graphic design company. How Jason came up with and started IWearYourShirt.com and built it to an 8-person business that generated over a million dollars in revenue. How to come up with a business idea - do you start from the problem or solution? A method to his madness: how Jason follows a structured process to come up with and test wild ideas. The number 1 tip you implement to be more creative. Key principles for successful pricing. Why you shouldn't emulate or copy anyone while building a brand, and what you should do. Jason's biggest mistake, and how you can avoid this no matter what type of business you're building. How he structured his pitch to potential sponsors for the 'Sponsor My Book' project for his book, Creativity for Sale. What happened when he started tearing down personal walls and shared authentically with his audience, and why you should do this with your audience as well. Key Actions you can take to start a business based on your interest and passions.
