SMART goal setting is the gold standard for achievement and success. Michel & Daniels (2002) said that goal-setting is “quite easily the single most dominant theory in the field, with over a thousand articles and reviews published on the topic in a little over 30 years.” In 1990, two researchers published a book that caught the attention of many people in business and management circles. Edwin Locke and Gary Latham developed a theory of goal setting, providing a framework for achieving success. They said that whether we are consciously or unconsciously pursuing our goals, we do so nonetheless, and this goal-directed action shares three common features;* Self-Generation The actions of living organisms are fuelled by a source integral to the organism.* Value Significance All goal-directed behaviour has value significance for the organism in terms of its survival.* Goal Causation Goal attainment is caused by consciousness, the person's vision, expectation, and imagination for a future state.Locke and Latham were highly critical of the behaviourist view. Behaviourism stated that your actions are a consequence of environmental contingencies. In other words, your behaviour is a consequence of the promise of reward or the threat of punishment. Instead, Locke and Latham stated that there is causal efficacy of consciousness in goal pursuits. In other words, goal pursuit is caused by consciousness. Goal Setting Theory assumes that human actions are directed by conscious goals and intentions.The SMART Goal Setting FrameworkThe SMART framework is derived from Locke & Latham's work on Goal Setting Theory. Cognitive behavioural therapies, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) (Hayes et al., 2006), take it a step further, suggesting that setting goals guided by our values is of critical importance. Therefore, before setting any goals, it is essential to clarify the underlying value(s) that drive these objectives. There are different versions of this acronym. In Harris' version, taken from the book The Happiness Trap, SMART stands for:S - Specific: specify the actions you will take, when and where you will do so, and who or what is involved. Example of a vague or non-specific goal: “I will spend more time with my kids.” A specific goal: “I will take the kids to the climbing wall on Saturday.”M - Meaningful: The goal should be personally meaningful to you if it is genuinely guided by your values, rather than trying to please others or avoid pain. If it lacks a sense of meaning or purpose, check in and see if it is really guided by your values.A - Adaptive: Does the goal help you to take your life forward in a direction that, as far as you can predict, is likely to improve the quality of your life and that of others? Is it adaptive?R - Realistic: The goal should be realistically achievable. Take into account your health, competing demands on your time, financial status, and whether you need to develop new skills to achieve it.T - Time-bound: To increase the specificity of your goal, set a day, date and time for it. If this is not possible, set as accurate a time limit as you can.Download the worksheets* Personal Values Worksheet* SMART(er) Goal SettingWhat are the benefits of achieving this goal?What are the potential pitfalls and what will you do if they arise?Write a commitment statement.Follow the Russ Harris worksheets hereEssential Mental Skills Is Launching SoonThe Essential Mental Skills Course is launching soon.

C'est l'un des pays qui déforeste le plus au monde. Si aujourd'hui, l'essentiel de la production de bois est assurée par des plantations, certains États autorisent toujours la coupe de bois endémique. Et en la matière, c'est la Tasmanie, un État très peu peuplé et dont les forêts sont, pour partie, classées au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco en raison de la richesse de la biodiversité qu'elles abritent, qui bat tous les records. Une activité menaçant certaines espèces animales, de plus en plus critiquée, et qui par ailleurs crée au final très peu d'emplois. Reportage en forêt où les arbres tiennent encore debout. De notre correspondant en Tasmanie,« Non à la coupe des arbres endémiques », c'est le cri de ralliement de plus de 4 000 personnes qui ont défilé à la fin mars 2025, dans les rues de Hobart, la capitale de la Tasmanie. Cet État australien est non seulement l'un des derniers à autoriser l'abattage des forêts endémiques, il est aussi celui qui le pratique le plus massivement. Près de 20% de la production de bois en Tasmanie est issue de ces forêts. Une situation qui choque Sue, l'une des manifestantes : « Pourquoi détruire ces magnifiques écosystèmes, indispensables pour les animaux (qui y vivent), pour purifier notre air et l'eau, toutes les choses dont nous avons besoin, simplement pour en faire des copeaux de bois. Les forêts, c'est la vie, et nos forêts les plus anciennes doivent être protégées. »Plus de 70% des arbres endémiques coupés sont en effet transformés en simples copeaux de bois, qui sont ensuite exportés vers la Chine et le Japon, pour fabriquer du papier et du carton. Une activité qui provoque par ailleurs beaucoup de gâchis. C'est ce que nous montre Jenny Weber, de la Fondation Bob Brown, en nous emmenant sur une zone de coupe. Au milieu d'une zone entièrement rasée, trône une énorme souche, de plus de trois mètres de diamètre : « Nous nous tenons sur la souche d'un arbre qui avait plus de 500 ans… Et ce qui est tragique, c'est qu'après avoir été coupé, les bûcherons se sont rendu compte qu'il était trop gros pour être débité et chargé sur un camion. »Des espèces animales menacées d'extinctionUn immense tronc git juste à côté de cette souche, à l'orée d'une forêt pour l'instant encore intacte. Elle abrite de nombreuses espèces animales, qui pour certaines sont menacées d'extinction par les bûcherons. C'est notamment le cas de la perruche de Latham, le perroquet le plus rapide du monde, comme nous l'explique Charley Gros. Il est Français et conseiller scientifique de la fondation Bob Brown : « Ces oiseaux ont besoin des cavités dans les arbres pour se reproduire et les exploitations forestières détruisent ces forêts. Donc s'il n'y a pas de cavités, il n'y a pas de nid, il n'y a pas d'enfants, il n'y a pas d'espèces. »L'organisme chargé de la gestion des forêts pour l'État de Tasmanie assure pour sa part exploiter de façon raisonnée les forêts, et replanter systématiquement des arbres là où il y a eu abattage. Mais ces fameuses cavités, indispensables pour la reproduction de ces perruches, prennent, elles, plusieurs siècles à se former. L'impact économique de cette activité est par ailleurs très limité : la coupe d'arbres endémiques a rapporté moins de 50 millions d'euros en 2023, et l'ensemble de la filière bois fait travailler moins de 1% de la population active en Tasmanie.À lire aussiAustralie: près de 400 «dauphins-pilotes», coincés dans une baie en Tasmanie, sont morts

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.You've spent years researching, developing, sourcing, and finally crafting your spirit, however, without proper attention paid to the most basic aspects of the governance of your entity, regardless of how good the liquid is, all the blood, sweat, and tears can be for naught.This presentation will (1) walk through basic considerations when forming your entity or taking in early investment dollars to avoid issues with co-founders, or early investors, (2) provide insight into common pitfalls that can and will cause additional expense and delay when dealing with potential investors or acquirers (or in the worst scenarios cause companies to lose investment or exit possibilities), and (3) discuss what types of diligence investors and acquirers will focus on during the course of a transaction and how companies can not only be prepared for those requests, but differentiate themselves from other potential target companies in their preparedness for diligence.Drew was raised in a family-owned fine dining restaurant and catering company, which was an outgrowth of his grandparents' local burger joint and watering hole.

Interview with Malcolm Dorsey, President & CEO of Torr Metals Inc.Recording date: 13th May 2025Torr Metals (TSXV:TMET) is a Canadian exploration company preparing for its maiden drill program at the Kolos Project in southern British Columbia—a road-accessible copper-gold porphyry target located near major producing mines like New Afton and Highland Valley. With strong early indicators including high-grade surface samples and a 1,300m x 800m geophysical anomaly at the Bertha Zone, Torr is targeting up to 3,000 meters of drilling in 2025.The Kolos Project benefits from exceptional infrastructure: it lies along Highway 5, 30 minutes from a lab in Kamloops, and requires no seasonal camp. This accessibility dramatically reduces costs and supports fast assay turnaround. CEO Malcolm Dorsey emphasizes that Kolos exhibits “a very large zone of hydrothermal alteration and mineralization,” consistent with porphyry systems sought by major miners.Torr's land position is strategically located within a competitive mining district. Majors like Teck, New Gold, Hudbay, Fortescue, and Boliden have recently staked nearby, signaling rising interest in the area. With New Afton and Highland Valley approaching end-of-life within 6–15 years, a discovery at Kolos could serve as a future feedstock source for local mills.Beyond Kolos, Torr offers exploration optionality with two additional projects: the Filion Gold Project in Ontario, featuring high-grade historic samples, and the Latham copper-gold project in northern BC, both aligned with the company's low-cost, highway-accessible strategy.With just 42 million shares outstanding, a ~$6M market cap, and 25% insider ownership, Torr Metals provides investors with high-leverage exposure to copper-gold discovery. As electrification drives long-term copper demand and supply tightens, Torr is positioned as an emerging junior in a region that majors are watching closely.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

We're starting to see the impact of a string of deals reached over the last two months between President Donald Trump and top law firms. Some firms appear to be moving on—and even thriving—after pledging hundreds of millions of dollars in free legal services on causes backed by the White House to avoid punitive executive orders like those Trump has lobbed at others. At least three firms that made deals are primed to cash in on Saudi Arabia's plan to invest $1 trillion in the US, thanks to their ties to a leading sovereign wealth fund: Latham & Watkins, A&O Sherman, and Kirkland & Ellis. Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft, meanwhile, is seeing the downside of doing a deal with Trump. A string of partners have headed for the exit since the firm's agreement with Trump was announced, including some who left because of their opposition to the deal. Justin Henry joins fellow Bloomberg Law reporter Roy Strom on this episode of our podcast, On The Merits, to talk about these two developments and about why it's still too soon to say whether law firms that acquiesced to the president made the right move.

Part of the reason why we wanted to start the Rethinking Economics series is that I think many aspects of economics, economic thinking, and economic institutions need reforming. And one of the main areas where this reform needs to happen is antitrust. Antitrust has become a popular and, as of late, bipartisan issue. Antitrust laws give the government power to regulate, manage competition, prevent monopolies, and stop harm to consumers. Antitrust powers were first vested with the government with the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, when businesses first began to reach their “giant” status. After 1890, there were some pretty substantive reforms to antitrust power that at times strengthened the government's ability to intervene in the economy, and at other times weakened it. I will let you, the listeners, determine whether you think the government has too much or too little power to intervene in markets, but what is undeniable is the growth of gargantuan companies like Google and Amazon, while the gap between the rich and the impoverished widens. And I'm sure many of you listening think these two phenomena are inextricably linked. So, how can the state better shape markets and market structures to shrink this gap?My guest today helps us reimagine the goals of antitrust and how it can be used to form innovation ecosystems to the benefit of society. Mr. Ahuja is a lawyer, researcher, and political organizer. He initially began his career as an antitrust lawyer at Latham and Watkins, where he mainly worked on competition and market structure cases. After a brief stint working for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, Mr. Ahuja became a Fellow with the Department of Energy, where he worked on reducing market barriers in solar energy. Mr. Ahuja is currently an affiliate of the University of Oxford and a Fellow at Harvard University's Growth Lab, where he researches and teaches antitrust and green development. He has written numerous publications that have appeared in newspapers and journals such as the Financial Times, Promarket, the Roosevelt Institute, and the Cambridge University Press. Mr. Ahuja earned his master's from Harvard in Public Policy and Oxford University in Law, and is currently a Ph.D candidate at Oxford.Together, we discussed Mr. Ahuja's innovation-as-capabilities approach to antitrust, green industrial policy, and how the state can shape markets and go beyond simply correcting market failures.To check out more of our content, including our research and policy tools, visit our website: https://www.hgsss.org/

In this soul-nourishing episode of "Teach the Babies," host Dr. David Johns sits down with doula, author, and maternal health advocate Latham Thomas, founder of Mama Glow. Together, they explore the revolutionary act of reclaiming birth as a sacred, communal experience deeply rooted in ancestral wisdom.Latham shares her journey to becoming a doula after her own transformative birth experience, which led her to create Mama Glow, an organization that has trained over 3,000 doulas nationwide. In a healthcare system where Black women face dramatically higher maternal mortality rates, Latham's work stands as both resistance and restoration.The conversation delves into how doulas serve as modern-day midwives, holding space for birthing individuals while helping them access their ancestral magic during this powerful transition. Latham illuminates how birth is meant to be experienced in community rather than in isolation, with profound insights on how even non-birthing individuals physically change to support new life.From the power of language as a tool for healing to the alchemy that transforms trauma into joy, this episode offers wisdom for anyone interested in reproductive justice, community building, and reclaiming African ways of being. As Latham beautifully articulates, "It's not enough to survive—our birthright is transcendence.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/teach-the-babies-w-dr-david-j-johns--6173854/support.

Procurement has come a long way over the last few decades, but the fact that they always want to achieve more shouldn't lead them to discount or overlook how good they have it today.

In this enlightening episode recorded live at the URG Conference in Orlando, we capture conversations with key industry leaders who are reshaping how recyclers work together.Shan Latham, past president of ARA and owner of Coco Auto Salvage, shares how his vision for greater industry collaboration has blossomed into tangible results. "We are better together," Latham emphasizes, highlighting how the major organizations—ARA, URG, and Team PRP—have moved from operating in separate silos to creating unified initiatives. This collaboration manifested powerfully at the conference when the combined industry donated two vehicles to Tunnel to Towers Foundation, supporting homeless veterans.The episode takes listeners behind the scenes of industry networking, with Latham revealing that sometimes the most valuable knowledge exchange happens informally: "We learn a lot at the bar at night." This candid assessment underscores the unique culture of automotive recycling, where competitors freely share best practices and open their facilities to help others improve.ARA Executive Director Vince Edivan brings additional perspective, detailing his journey from insurance adjuster to industry advocate. His stories about falling in love with the recycling community highlight what makes this industry special—multi-generational family businesses that treat each other like extended family. Edivan also provides an insider's view of ARA's recent Hill Days, where recyclers conducted 80 meetings with legislators about pressing industry issues including right to repair legislation and catalytic converter theft.Whether you're a seasoned recycler or considering entering the industry, this episode offers valuable insights into how education, advocacy, and collaboration are creating stronger businesses and a more unified profession. The message is clear: the future belongs to those who work together.Don't miss upcoming opportunities to participate in this collaborative movement—mark your calendar for ARA's 82nd annual convention in Birmingham this October, featuring facility tours, tech talks, and dozens of educational sessions designed to help your business thrive in today's complex environment.

What if the best person to solve the mystery of alien communication isn't a SETI researcher or a radio astronomer, but instead a theoretical physicist trained in the deepest notions of physical law, symmetries, and quantum field theory? Well, today, I'm joined by Latham Boyle, a renowned theoretical physicist exploring the fundamental symmetries of the universe and developing new ideas to understand how the universe began. But his research goes beyond that—he's also tackling one of the greatest mysteries of all time: the Fermi Paradox. After explaining everything we need to know about symmetries, Latham shares his bold theory of a mirror universe, where the cosmos is symmetric across the Big Bang, and how that could explain the strange silence from the stars. We explore how this radical idea might reshape our understanding of dark matter, the origin of the universe, and why advanced civilizations might be using quantum signals we're simply not equipped to detect. What if we're not alone, just looking in the wrong way? — Key Takeaways:  00:00 Intro  02:29 Explaining symmetries and CPT symmetry  05:07 Theoretical framework and observational evidence  09:49 Symmetry violations  12:56 Possible alternative explanation of the early universe  40:55 Quantum entanglement and the Fermi Paradox  51:14 Technology of biological material?  56:29 Outro — Additional resources:  ➡️ Follow me on your fav platforms: ✖️ Twitter:⁠ ⁠⁠https://twitter.com/DrBrianKeating⁠

Home care user and advocate Larissa Martin and caregiver Maggie Ornstein speak to Sal Rochelle about upheaval in New York's homecare program CDPAP, after the company PPL took it over. Amidst thousands of workers missing paychecks due on April 10, and disabled New Yorkers having to call for ambulances because of homecare interruptions, they discuss actions that consumers and workers are taking to support each other and demand justice - including rallies in Latham and New York City, and virtual "water cooler hours" that service users and caregivers can join from anywhere. Update: As of 4/16 both of Larissa's aides have now been paid in full.

This week, we’re joined by Latham Thomas, founder of Mama Glow and a true trailblazer in reproductive justice. She takes us on the journey that started with her own birth experience and led her to build a movement that’s transforming how we care for Black women and birthing people. From expanding doula care for Medicaid families in NYC to training the next wave of advocates and healers, Latham breaks down how Mama Glow went from a personal mission to a global platform. And y’all, she keeps it real about what growth actually looks like—think repotting a plant or realizing your kid just outgrew their favorite hoodie. We also get into the rise of Mama Glow during COVID, how the shift to online learning opened unexpected doors, and why planning, vision, and community are key when everything feels uncertain. Plus, Latham reminds us that doulas and midwives aren’t a luxury—they’re a necessity when it comes to safety, dignity, and support in the birthing space. If you’re someone who cares about health, healing, and building something with purpose, this one’s for you. What You’ll Hear: - Why Latham created Mama Glow and what it’s grown into - The real deal on Black maternal health and advocacy - How COVID sparked a pivot that paid off - The power of self-advocacy in the delivery room - How doulas are changing lives—and saving them Takeaway Quote: “Every person deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported during birth. Mama Glow is here to make sure that happens especially for us." – Latham Thomas Links + Resources:

Jon Herold returns with a wide-ranging Friday breakdown of the week's most explosive, and overlooked stories. He covers Trump's ongoing legal war with regime-aligned law firms, including a new executive order revoking security clearances and forcing $500 million in pro bono legal work from firms like Kirkland & Ellis and Latham & Watkins. Jon questions how these law firms keep bending the knee and what kind of legal offensive Trump is preparing behind the scenes. He dives into the unraveling global economy, explaining how Trump's tariff pincer may be triggering a basis trade meltdown that could force the Fed to intervene, risking accusations of political bias. Treasury yields are rising when they should be falling, liquidity is evaporating, and Trump may be tightening the screws on the global financial system in real time. The episode also covers Tulsi Gabbard's much-hyped election integrity remarks, clarifying what she actually said, and didn't. Jon calls out the cheerleader culture that elevates empty rhetoric over tangible results. He also highlights Gabbard's appointment of a Koch-linked official against Trump's own stated wishes, and questions why more aren't raising concerns. From the dismantling of Obama-era election security infrastructure to the declassification of more Russiagate receipts, a shakeup in Ukraine diplomacy, deep cuts to NASA, and AI lawsuit wars between Musk and Altman, Jon pulls no punches. If you're looking for honest analysis, sharp critique, and zero tolerance for nonsense, this is your go-to wrap-up of the week.

In this heartfelt episode of Our Forever Smiles, host Laura Arroyo sits down with Carson Gaines to discuss her journey as a cleft mom and how she has navigated the ups and downs of motherhood. From the moment she received her son's cleft diagnosis, Carson found guidance and support through Our Forever Smiles, which became a source of reassurance and strength during an overwhelming time. Carson opens up about her experience with the Latham device, a pre-surgical orthodontic appliance used before cleft lip repair to gradually bring the segments of the cleft closer together. She shares the challenges of caring for the device, the emotional difficulty of seeing her baby undergo the process, and the relief of knowing it was a necessary step toward a successful repair. Through the struggles of feeding, cleaning, and managing the adjustments, she found strength in her faith and the support of the cleft community. Beyond cleft care, Carson also discusses how each of her sons faced different birth-related challenges, shaping her perspective on resilience and motherhood. Through every high and low, she continues to embrace the journey with strength, love, and determination. This episode is a powerful reminder that no mother walks this path alone. Tune in for an inspiring conversation filled with honesty, hope, and the power of community.

This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief keeps a solemn promise, riding north through the towering piney woods of East Texas to Tyler, where he shines a spotlight on Kiepersol Distillery and the legacy behind Jimmy's Bourbon. At the heart of this whiskey is Jimmy Hines, a World War II pilot who carried a bottle of whiskey with him through the war—only to trade it for a vinyl record that turned out to be blank. Imagine the heartbreak. Today, Kiepersol honors Jimmy's spirit and sacrifice, using his pilot goggles as the symbol of their brand and his fearless outlook as the inspiration for their tagline: “Through Hero's Eyes.” Big Chief sits down with distiller Dylan Latham, a man whose passion for the craft is evident in every sip. They kick things off with Jimmy's 84-proof Bourbon, a light, crisp Texas whiskey with whispers of crackerjack and vanilla—a perfect bridge for those who love the easy-drinking nature of Irish or Scottish drams. Next up is Jimmy's 90-proof Bourbon, a whiskey with a cult following so loyal that it rarely stays on shelves. Deep, rich toffee notes, accented by tea and honey, make this an unmistakable Texas gem. For the second half, Dylan and Big Chief dive into Jimmy's Rye Whiskey—a Kentucky-style rye with layers of licorice, sweet vanilla cream, and warm spice on the back end. Smooth yet complex, it's a rye that demands attention. And then, the grand finale. A 10-year-old, cask-strength expression of Jimmy's Bourbon, clocking in at 116.7 proof. This might just be the best whiskey in the Lone Star State. Deep, rich kettle corn, butterscotch, dried fruit, and chocolate flood the palate, finishing with a lingering kiss of light smoke and spice. Kiepersol isn't just another Texas craft distillery—it's a place of heritage, honor, and damn good whiskey. This was a ride Big Chief will never forget. So pour yourself a glass, settle in, and join us for another unforgettable journey on The Whiskey Trip. Cheers!
