Faith alone doesn't move mountains—faith married to diligence does. In his message, “Sloth Kills Callings,” Dr. Gabriel Allen Powell unpacks what it really means to battle laziness—not just in our work or routines, but also when it comes to our spiritual lives.Drawing from Proverbs 6, Dr. Powell challenges us to “consider the ant”—a symbol of diligence and preparation—juxtaposing its work ethic to the dangers of procrastination and passivity. But this isn't just a call to grind harder. Dr. Powell explores the importance of combining discipline and faith, reminding listeners that waiting on God is never meant to be passive, but an invitation to action, growth, and responsibility.Support the showText encounteratl to 94000 to stay up-to-date on all things Encounter.Worship with EncounterSundays at 9 AM ET | Wednesdays at 7:30 PM ETSupport EncounterText egive to 77977 Connect with EncounterFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | WebsiteConnect with Dr. GabeInstagram | YouTube | Website

This is a reminder to be a little bit kinder to yourself — even when it feels uncomfortable to do so.Thank you for being here. It's so good to be back.Kaya x

Sloth kills callings—sometimes we pray, fast, and weep, but never move to build. Drawing inspiration from the story of Nehemiah, Dr. Gabe highlights the dangers of prolonged grief, the imperative of spiritual discipline, and an often-ignored enemy—the spirit of sloth.

Laziness is more than just a lack of productivity—it's a spiritual danger that distorts the image of the God who created us to work, serve, and worship through our lives. In this message, we turn to the book of Proverbs to examine the serious consequences of slothfulness and what Scripture says about living a life of diligence and purpose. This sermon unpacks five marks of a lazy person: 1. The lazy person makes excuses 2. The lazy person loves ease 3. The lazy person doesn't finish what they started 4. The lazy person is self-deceived 5. The lazy person needs to be prodded Through wisdom from Proverbs and a biblical theology of work, we're reminded that our calling is not to comfort and complacency but to usefulness for God's glory and the good of our neighbor. If you've been coasting spiritually, mentally, or physically—this is your call to wake up. Laziness isn't neutral. But by God's grace, we can live lives marked by intentionality, discipline, and devotion.

Do you know what to say "yes" to and what to say "no" to? In this episode, Garrett discusses two main points from the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown. The first point is about making decisions based on whether something is a 'heck yes' or not. Garrett encourages listeners to prioritize their time and say no to things that are not a strong yes. The second point is about zero-based scheduling, where Garrett advises starting from scratch and intentionally choosing what to include in the schedule. He emphasizes the importance of being intentional with time and not letting pride or laziness dictate the schedule.TakeawaysPrioritize your time and say no to things that are not a 'heck yes'Start from scratch when scheduling and intentionally choose what to includeDon't let pride or laziness dictate your scheduleChapters00:00 Making Time for What Matters: The 'Heck Yes' Principle13:53 Starting from Scratch: Zero-Based Scheduling17:36 Overcoming Pride and Laziness in Scheduling⭐️ Rate & Review:If this episode challenged or encouraged you, leave a 5-star review and share it with another Christian agent who needs to hear this message.

In this honest and eye-opening episode, Lindsey Maestas dives deep into the impact of ADHD on relationships and friendships. With vulnerability, faith, and research-backed insight, she explores why many people with ADHD subconsciously seek out chaos, conflict, toxic relationships, or emotionally unavailable partners. It isn't out of desire, but as a way of seeking out neurological stimulation. Lindsey discusses how ADHD can intensely heighten feelings of rejection, create a cycle of emotional highs and lows in relationships, often leading to toxic dynamics, chronic arguing, and feelings of inadequacy or isolation. She unpacks the difference between laziness and ADHD Paralysis, explaining the brain science behind task initiation struggles and why shame is often misdirected. Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, have a partner or friend who struggles with it, or simply relate to the patterns of emotional burnout, impulsive decisions, or feeling like you're “too much” in relationships, this episode is a lifeline. Lindsey encourages self-compassion and offers tangible insight to help you understand your brain, regulate your emotions, and build healthier, more stable connections without sacrificing your joy.

In this Morning Manna episode, we examine Solomon's piercing question: “How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard?” (Proverbs 6:9). Verses 9–11 warn us that spiritual laziness opens the door to unexpected loss—poverty doesn't announce itself; it sneaks in like a traveler and attacks like an armed man. We'll reflect on the hidden dangers of procrastination, the deception of ease, and why a restful heart still requires a watchful spirit.Join the leading community for Conservative Christians! https://www.FaithandValues.comYou can partner with us by visiting https://www.FaithandValues.com/donate, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!https://www.AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

In today's Morning Manna, we slow down and look closely at one of God's most underestimated teachers—the ant. Proverbs 6:6–7 reminds us that wisdom isn't always found in impressive places; sometimes, it crawls right under our feet. The ant has no guide, overseer, or ruler, yet it models diligence, discipline, and initiative. We'll unpack what it means to live with the kind of quiet, steady responsibility that honors God—without needing constant supervision to do what's right.Join the leading community for Conservative Christians! https://www.FaithandValues.comYou can partner with us by visiting https://www.FaithandValues.com/donate, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!https://www.AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

I'll break down how blaming ourselves or others for being “lazy” ignores the real barriers - like overwhelm, poor mental health, executive dysfunction and more - and just piles on more shame. Let's get honest about what's actually holding us back and why reframing this idea matters. The Myth of Laziness in Relation to Hoarding Revisiting a previous episode's question: Are hoarders lazy? Arguments against the idea (hoarded homes require more energy to live in, etc.) The aversion to external intervention reveals deeper issues than laziness Societal attitudes towards rest and productivity Internalised and external accusations of laziness The damaging effects: shame, isolation, distress Understanding Hoarding as a Mental Health Issue Hoarding as a coping method for difficult emotions Judgments of laziness overlook the disorder's complexity and nuance Such labels add barriers to seeking help and reinforce stigma Consequences of Labelling People who Hoard (or Ourselves) as Lazy Shame and self-criticism deepen the problem Laziness as a simplistic explanation that ignores underlying issues Possible root causes: executive dysfunction, decision-making difficulties, emotional attachment to items, avoidance, depression, physical disability, etc. The Harmful Cultural Narrative Around Laziness Societal pressures to be constantly productive Inaccuracies of the “we all have the same 24 hours” myth Differences in time and capability due to systemic inequalities Examples: physical ability, mental health, neurodivergence, responsibilities, discrimination Moral and Social Implications of the “Lazy” Label Care tasks are morally neutral (reference to KC Davis, episode 82) The negative cycle: shame leads to paralysis, makes it harder to seek help and make progress Laziness label used as a justification for lack of societal support Political and social consequences for marginalised groups Importance of community, support, and helping each other The Danger of Linking Self-Worth to Productivity The toxic culture of non-stop productivity and hustling Problems with feeling guilty for resting The spiral of self-worth being tied to continuous output The Limiting Nature of the Laziness Concept It shuts down further exploration of underlying problems Missed opportunities for self-compassion, empathy, and effective assistance Underlying Reasons for Struggles That Are Mistaken for Laziness Lack of motivation: exhaustion, depression, overwhelm Overwhelm due to the scale of the task Executive dysfunction (planning, initiating, processing tasks) Fear (of the process, of making wrong decisions, of consequences) Fatigue, burnout, and mental health struggles Being practically or emotionally stuck, lacking skills or knowledge Societal Structures and Individual Blame Blame placed on individuals ignores wider systemic and commercial influences Industries profit from reinforcing personal inadequacy (beauty industry analogy, storage solutions) The cycle of self-blame, shame, and attempts to “fix” via consumerism Breaking the Cycle and Moving Forward Recognising the myth of laziness enables real progress Compassion, curiosity, and support as healthier responses Encouragement for self-acceptance and seeking genuine solutions Buy your copy of Everything You Need to Know About Hoarding by Dr Lynne Drummond at cambridge.org/EverythingHoarding, and get 20% off with the discount code HOARDING20. #ad Links Podcast ep 57: Are hoarders lazy?

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his study of Orchos Tzadikim (Ways of the Righteous), concluding the chapter on laziness. Drawing from King Solomon's wisdom in Proverbs, Rabbi Wolbe highlights the pitfalls of laziness, particularly in failing to seek or maintain friendships with wise and God-fearing individuals, which he deems the epitome of laziness. He uses the metaphor of the ant, which tirelessly gathers over a thousand kernels of food it doesn't need, to contrast with the lazy person's endless excuses, such as fearing "lions in the streets" to avoid Torah study or good deeds. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the need for balance, noting that while excessive laziness is detrimental, strategic laziness—such as avoiding evil pursuits or working on Shabbos—can be virtuous. He encourages listeners to be eager in pursuing Torah, mitzvot, and positive influences, while being "lazy" about negative actions like slander, envy, or frequenting inappropriate places. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal strategy inspired by his grandfather, who used his love for Mussar study to motivate Talmud study, illustrating how one can leverage enthusiasm for enjoyable tasks to accomplish less appealing ones. He recounts a story of agreeing to pick up a friend at 1:30 a.m., viewing it as a divine test of willingness to act, even when the task was ultimately unnecessary. The episode concludes with a call to overcome laziness by proactively pursuing good deeds and Torah study, using modern tools like YouTube and podcasts to access Torah effortlessly, and strategically applying laziness to avoid harmful influences, thereby aligning with God's will.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 3, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 3, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his study of Orchos Tzadikim (Ways of the Righteous), concluding the chapter on laziness. Drawing from King Solomon's wisdom in Proverbs, Rabbi Wolbe highlights the pitfalls of laziness, particularly in failing to seek or maintain friendships with wise and God-fearing individuals, which he deems the epitome of laziness. He uses the metaphor of the ant, which tirelessly gathers over a thousand kernels of food it doesn't need, to contrast with the lazy person's endless excuses, such as fearing "lions in the streets" to avoid Torah study or good deeds. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the need for balance, noting that while excessive laziness is detrimental, strategic laziness—such as avoiding evil pursuits or working on Shabbos—can be virtuous. He encourages listeners to be eager in pursuing Torah, mitzvot, and positive influences, while being "lazy" about negative actions like slander, envy, or frequenting inappropriate places. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal strategy inspired by his grandfather, who used his love for Mussar study to motivate Talmud study, illustrating how one can leverage enthusiasm for enjoyable tasks to accomplish less appealing ones. He recounts a story of agreeing to pick up a friend at 1:30 a.m., viewing it as a divine test of willingness to act, even when the task was ultimately unnecessary. The episode concludes with a call to overcome laziness by proactively pursuing good deeds and Torah study, using modern tools like YouTube and podcasts to access Torah effortlessly, and strategically applying laziness to avoid harmful influences, thereby aligning with God's will.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 3, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 3, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his exploration of Orchos Tzadikim (Ways of the Righteous), focusing within the chapter on laziness. Drawing from King Solomon's teachings in Proverbs, Rabbi Wolbe outlines seven characteristics of a lazy person, emphasizing their tendency to make excuses to avoid effort, such as fearing imaginary dangers like "lions in the streets" when urged to learn Torah from a visiting rabbi. He illustrates how laziness manifests as a refusal to act, even when opportunities—like free access to Torah resources in the modern era—are readily available. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the accessibility of Torah study today through platforms like YouTube, ArtScroll, and the All Daf app, noting that there are no valid excuses for ignorance in Judaism due to laziness. He shares a personal anecdote about learning Russian in the former Soviet Union by persistently collecting vocabulary, demonstrating how consistent effort transforms one-dimensional knowledge into a rich, multidimensional understanding, applicable to Torah study. Quoting Moses, Rabbi Wolbe underscores that Torah is "close to you, in your mouth and heart," requiring only action and desire to achieve greatness, not reliance on external blessings or lineage. He contrasts the lazy person, who procrastinates and fails to act, with the proactive individual who maximizes time and opportunities, such as listening to Torah classes while multitasking. The episode concludes with a Talmudic analogy of a lazy servant who feigns illness to avoid a king's missions, underscoring that laziness renders one unfit for both this world and the next. Rabbi Wolbe encourages listeners to train themselves to be proactive, overcome laziness, and seize the abundant opportunities for spiritual growth.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 3, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 1, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast's Mussar Masterclass, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe delves into the 16th gate of the Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the destructive trait of laziness. He explains how laziness not only prevents individuals from fulfilling Torah study and mitzvahs but also leads to harmful outcomes, like a neglected field producing thorns, as illustrated by King Solomon's parable in Proverbs. Laziness fosters excuses, distorted rationalizations, and a preference for idle pursuits, such as mocking or chasing fleeting pleasures, which derail spiritual growth. Rabbi Wolbe contrasts this with the zeal of a righteous person who diligently engages in Torah and good deeds, urging listeners to overcome laziness to avoid missing opportunities for meaningful accomplishment in this world and the next.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 3, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 29, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

If you remember the parable of the talents, the last servant made excuses for his poor performance. Although this servant blamed his mistake on fear, it could have just as easily been due to laziness. In the workplace, you can often identify the lazy workers by their multiple excuses. Some of them can get comical. ... The post Excuses for Laziness appeared first on Unconventional Business Network.
Every one of us is guilty of procrastinating on our exam prep. Whether it's just “a little bit” or “a lot” is not the problem — the cost of it to our career is. But the good news? It's beatable!
"I've been struck lately about how much teenage boys are getting into poker and gambling, even from good Christian families. Unfortunately, some of them are doing well, and gaining money doing it… I feel that is dangerous. Is it just something fun to do, or is it a bad habit that will develop into something else? These boys come from very well to do families, so I feel that they don't know how to work for money, or would prefer to just gamble in poker, or in the stock market to get their money.” - Anita This podcast is entirely Q&A based!
