On November 1, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Whole Woman's Health v.

Texas on the authority of the federal government to bring suit and obtain injunctive or declaratory relief against a state, state court judges, and other states officials or all private parties to prohibit SB 8, a Texas abortion regulation, from being enforced.

In this archive episode, Dennis delves into what situations call for escalating a mere field inquiry to an investigative detention. Recorded on 12/29/2017. State v Lurdes Rosario 2017 First and foremost, we must address whether and at what point defendant's interaction with the police officer escalated from a field inquiry into an investigative detention. Then we must assess whether reasonable and articulable suspicion supported the detention's restriction on defendant's freedom of movement. The encounter took place on a May evening when defendant was in her car, which was parked lawfully, head-on in a lined parking space directly outside her apartment. The car's engine was off. The officer positioned his patrol car perpendicularly behind defendant's to box in defendant's car and engaged his vehicle's rooftop, right-side “alley” light to shine at her car. The officer then exited his patrol car and approached the driver's-side door of defendant's car to address her. We conclude that no objectively reasonable person in those circumstances would have felt free to leave. Under the totality of the circumstances, a reasonable person would feel the constraints on her freedom of movement from having become the focus of law enforcement attention. Accordingly, we hold that an investigative detention had begun. Because we also conclude that reasonable and articulable suspicion did not ripen prior to the officer's subsequent exchanges with defendant, we reverse the judgment under review. State v Pearlstein 1985 - Failing to provide documents constitutes Obstructing the Admin of Law As a result, Lizzano crossed the street to the patrol car to obtain his summons book. Then he asked Ms. Perlstein for her license and registration which she refused to tender. She continued to spew a barrage of comments at Lizzano. Lizzano told her that if she did not show her license, registration and insurance card he would issue her three more summonses. She persisted in her refusal. Then she said that she was going to see the Chief of Police to see what he had to say about this incident. With the car door open, she picked up her keys from the seat, put them in the ignition, turned on the car and put it in reverse. Lizzano was standing in the open door and knew he could be hurt if the car moved so he reached in and grabbed the keys. Thereafter, he placed her under arrest.

Parable #1: The “Dream Life” Illusion At the time Daniel was first introduced to the conversation of Warrior, he had what most would consider a dream life. He had the beautiful home overlooking the pacific ocean, a successful law firm, not a lot of debt, a vacation home in Cabo, a wonderful wife & kids…he seemingly had it all. But he had reached the boredom stage and was starting to go crazy. And underneath the surface, he had some health and relationship issues and knew he had to make a shift. Enter Garrett’s infamous video in Vegas that completely resonated with Daniel. QUESTION What is the message that spoke to you when you were first introduced to Wake Up Warrior? Parable #2: Feelings Daniel grew up on the opposite spectrum of financial wealth. He was raised by a single dad who worked all the time, and as a result, Daniel took on the mentality of “go to work, do what I say, leave me alone, and let me drink when I want.” He had a fear of losing everything he built and knew how quickly it could all disappear. But the last thing he wanted to do was talk about it because it was like ripping off a scab, and he didn’t want to feel that pain. So he spent a lot of energy and time focusing on everything BUT that. QUESTION How do you feel about expressing your feelings and facing your fears? Parable #3: Fuck Date Night The first six months following Warrior Week, Date Night between Daniel and his wife, was anything but romantic. She had a “fuck you” attitude about it, but they continued to go, week after week, oftentimes dining or watching movies in complete silence. Over time, his wife began to trust the change she saw in Daniel, and Date Night became something she looked forward to. What Daniel never foresaw, however, was the feedback and response from others wanting to know their “secret” and asking for marital advice, which placed an unexpected expectation around Date Night and his wife. QUESTION What are you doing to keep Date Nights fresh, consistent, and sustainable, especially during this lockdown season? Parable #4:  Facts vs. Law As a lawyer, there are two ways Daniel presents arguments: 1- the facts and 2- the law. When it comes to the facts, you can’t argue them; facts are facts. The law, however, is gray and can be manipulated. Through Warrior, Daniel has learned to frame the conversation through the lens of certainty and spends more time wanting to focus on the facts than on the law. “When you have the facts on your side, it doesn’t matter what the law says.” QUESTION What has been one of the most significant shifts in your life since your Warrior journey began? Parable #5: Certainty & Value Your energy precedes you; therefore, if you are certain or uncertain, it is obvious the moment you step into a room. As such, Daniel trains his lawyers to over-prepare through role-playing every conceivable worst-case scenario his clients may face. The conversation of value goes hand-in-hand with the conversation of certainty. What are you willing to walk away from or stand up for because of the value you place in it? Do you place that value in yourself? At the end of the day, you must have certainty in your value; otherwise, you will be exposed. QUESTION What is one thing you can do today to demonstrate more certainty in your value? Parables from the Pit “We are sacrificing time that we can never get back for a fucking story that may or may not happen in the future.” —Sam Falsafi “You are not broken. You have to tell the truth, especially to yourself. Get clear about what you really want and what is important enough for you to let everything else go.” –Daniel Hitzke

How To Recover From Big Mistakes Gracefully

Mistakes come in many forms. Some are humorous like the furniture store that unwittingly offered, “Free: one night stand, when you purchase a bed!” Or the church marquee that read, “Don’t let worries kill you, let the church help.”  But other blunders, often the ones we commit ourselves, are anything but funny. Click here to download or listen to this episode now. Perhaps you can identify with some of these: Missing an appointment with a client Sending someone the wrong product Showing up late for an important meeting Calling someone by the wrong name Sending out an email with typos in it Confidently stating something publicly, only to discover later you were wrong Drawing a complete blank when meeting someone who insists they know you Failing to make a payment on time to an affiliate or contractor Finding out that you’ve offended someone And sometimes much more serious blunders occur with significant consequences. For instance, in the Clinton—Lewinsky scandal in the 90s, then-President Bill Clinton committed a huge moral blunder in his sexual encounters with Monica Lewinsky. If those weren’t bad enough, what really upset the public was his blatant lies and twisting of the truth under oath. The more he lied, the greater the scandal became. Consequently, he lost all respect, integrity, and trust with the American people, resulting in his impeachment. Spiritual Foundations Tony Robbins says that It's not a mistake if you learn from it. What does the Bible say about making mistakes? “For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again, but the wicked shall fall by calamity.” Proverbs 24: 16 “Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.” Philippians 3:12 “I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us, then, who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you.  Only let us live up to what we have already attained.” –Philippians 3:14-16 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”- Isaiah 43: 18-19 Feature Presentation “How to Recover From Big Mistakes Gracefully” While this is an extreme example of a blunder, there’s a lesson there for all of us. Committing a blunder and responding poorly can have catastrophic consequences. Blunder Causes and Prevention Blunders occur for many reasons, but here are some of the common problems or oversights that lead to blunders: Cutting corners Rushing Inattention to detail Preoccupation with other things Stress Dishonesty Lack of a moral compass or failure to follow it Failure to put safeguards in place Failure to adhere to established safeguards Having too much on one’s plate Poor oversight or management of others Insufficient training Partnerships with those who don’t share your values Murphy’s Law As you read through that list of causes, notice that all are avoidable but the last one. But with diligence, honesty, integrity, attention to detail, demonstrating genuine care for others, having good systems and processes in place and following them we can usually avoid most blunders. Obviously, we want to do all we can to avoid mistakes and blunders from occurring in the first place. But whether we’ve taken the proper precautions or not, what do we do when a blunder occurs? 5 Steps for Recovering from a Blunder Gracefully Assess the damage. Determine the extent of the damage. How many people does it affect? How serious is the damage? What will be its impact on your business? How will it influence the way people see you? Seek the counsel of others on this matter, so you don’t underestimate the potential damage. Own up to it. Often, your immediate response to an exposed blunder is to defend yourself, make excuses, or blame someone else. These responses come naturally, especially if the blunder was unintentional. But none of those responses will help you recover. Instead, own the mistake. Take full responsibility for it, even if it was committed by someone else in your organization. Owning up to it demonstrates integrity and honesty. You may even earn a higher level of respect and trust by doing so. Admitting fault also helps you and your constituents move on from there. Make it right. This may be as simple as offering a sincere apology. But other times, you may need to offer a refund or something for free as an expression of goodwill. If in doubt, ask the person(s), “What can we do to make this right for you?” Look for the hidden gem. Quite often, if you make a mistake but seek to make amends graciously, you’ll find an unexpected blessing. Your gracious response to a blunder can demonstrate to others the depth of your commitment to them, the soundness of your integrity, or the extent of your care and concern. Look for that hidden jewel and capitalize on it. Put safeguards in place. If you’re unsure of how the blunder occurred, research it and discover what went wrong. Then, put systems and processes in place to prevent its recurrence. Mistakes and blunders happen to the best of us. To the extent possible, we want to avoid them. But when they do occur, seek to make them right and do so with all integrity. In this way, you can recover from a blunder gracefully and both you and your tribe will be glad you did.

Profit First Accounting and Paying Yourself:This episode is about stepping out of your comfort zone and flipping your finances and accounting on its head. In business we have been following the same formula for generations, Sales-Expenses=Profit. This means profit comes last, which ultimately means you come last. It is time to flip that formula and enjoy your profit now with today's co-host. Mike Michalowicz is the author of the book Profit First, a book that I have mentioned many times on LIVETHEFUEL. Mike has launched three multi-million dollar businesses and sold the second to a Fortune 500 company. Mike is also the author of three other great books, The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, The Pumpkin Plan and the most resent Surge. This is a great episode for anyone who wants to have a little more financial freedom in their life/business. On This Episode You Will Hear:[spp-timestamp time="03:45"] What book should I be reading now? The answer, what is your biggest challenge right now? You will then find the right book to read. [spp-timestamp time="05:23"] Where the book, Profit First came from. Mike had start a lot of different businesses and lost a lot of money. Building those companies was not profitable, he was surviving check by check. He sold two companies and one to a fortune 500 company. He thought this was the way to make money and became an angel investor to try and repeat the process but he lost money fast. This was the necessary wake up call he needed. The mentality of being profitable one day in the future is wrong. The classic accounting formula of Sales - Expenses = Profit, which means your profit comes last, is archaic. [spp-timestamp time="11:46"] Afraid of change. Mike has literally flipped the accounting formula and put Profit First. It's the pay yourself first system for your business. [spp-timestamp time="15:07"] Parkinson's Law: As the supply of the availability increases, our demand for it increases, but as it decreases we become more frugal, innovative and use less of it. Mike uses a cookie to describe Parkinson's Law. When we force ourselves to use less money in our business our behavior changes. [spp-timestamp time="21:35"] "Money to brains ratio" and "Keeping up with the Jones's". The 401K. When you first adapt to Profit First, it can be painful to begin with. Very quickly, when you see those profits stacking up, it makes it all worth while. [spp-timestamp time="25:24"] Dividing up your income into different accounts. [spp-timestamp time="32:46"] If you don't know what you are doing, get help. There is no shame in asking. Scott is visiting Profit First HQ. [spp-timestamp time="35:38"] Profit First Professionals: Experts that maximize companies profits permanently. [spp-timestamp time="37:01"] Profit First Professionals launched 2 years ago. Profit First Professionals came from people who had read the book but wanted help implementing it and someone to hold them accountable for it. Now they have 160+ bookkeepers and accountants supporting it. [spp-timestamp time="38:11"] 99% of Accountants that have come across Profit First have converted to the philosophy. The ones that don't are the ones that are not willing to change the way they do things. Profit First accountants apply logic and overlay that with behaviors. A lot of accountants just can not make that leap. [spp-timestamp time="40:08"] Some people want to go all in when they read Profit First and set aside huge percentages but that's like putting a frozen mug into a hot oven, eventually it will shatter. One of the important steps of Profit First is to take small steps. [spp-timestamp time="42:42"] Taking small incremental steps and relating accounting to the fitness world. Profit First is a Dial not a Switch. [spp-timestamp time="45:18"] Quarterly Distributions. [spp-timestamp time="47:02"] When the profit comes out, it is for you to experience financial freedom.
