Within field of psychology, Locus of Control is considered an important aspect of personality and behaviour. Julian Rotter was a behaviourist but he also understood the role of cognition in learning and development and originally developed the concept in the 1950s. Locus of Control refers to a person's perception about the underlying main causes of events in their life. Or, more simply, it is how you believe that your destiny is determined or controlled by you or by external forces such as fate, God, or powerful others.Rotter held the view that behaviour was largely guided by environmental "reinforcements," or rewards and punishments, and that through contingencies such as rewards and punishments, individuals come to hold beliefs about what causes their actions. These beliefs, in turn, guide what kinds of attitudes and behaviours people adopt. Rotter stated that where we place that locus will either reinforce or punish our actions. An internal locus of control will lead to a reinforcement of that behaviour, and the behaviour will continue. An external locus of control, on the other hand, will cause the behaviour to extinguish – why would we continue to try if the outcome is outside of our control?So we can see how locus of control is a factor in the development of growth and fixed mindset.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Chad Woolner: A dedicated leader in functional medicine, Dr. Chad Woolner champions innovative approaches to healthcare through his work with "Simplified Functional Medicine." As a seasoned practitioner, he explores unique strategies that integrate simple lifestyle habits for profound health benefits. Dr. Andrew Wells: Partnering with Dr. Woolner, Dr. Andrew Wells brings a wealth of experience in functional medicine. His focus on effective habit change empowers patients to revamp their health through manageable and impactful routines, making him an influential figure in this evolving healthcare landscape. Episode Summary: In this episode of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells unveil the concept of "invisible routines" as pivotal strategies for sustainable lifestyle changes. Often overlooked by practitioners, these routines act as subtle yet powerful drivers of long-term health improvements by reshaping habits and altering identities. The episode zeroes in on simple morning and evening routines that can significantly enhance sleep, dietary habits, exercise consistency, and stress management—all without burdening patients with overwhelming changes. By introducing "Trojan horse strategies," Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells emphasize a unique approach to habit formation that prioritizes simplicity and effectiveness. With insights from James Clear's "Atomic Habits," they discuss how identity and habits form a continuous loop of influence. They explore how practitioners can help patients break free from entrenched identities through structured routines. These adaptable methods aim to imbue patients with a strong sense of control over their health outcomes, thereby fostering a proactive, internal locus of control. Simplified Functional Medicine stands as a testament to how integrative and manageable lifestyle interventions can transform patient care. Key Takeaways: Invisible Routines: Simple, structured morning and evening routines can significantly improve patients' health by quietly altering habits and reinforcing new identities. Trojan Horse Strategies: Approachable lifestyle changes presented as 'challenges' or 'games' make adopting new habits less daunting and more engaging for patients. Locus of Control: Patients gain an internal locus of control as they realize their capability to consciously influence their physiological state through deliberate actions. Gamification and Simplicity: Ensuring the routines are easy, enjoyable, and trackable is crucial to sustaining patient engagement and compliance. Empowering Practitioners: These methodologies elevate practitioners' capabilities to effectively facilitate long-lasting lifestyle changes in their patients. Notable Quotes: "If you can get someone to become someone different, their health issues will go away. That's a promise." – Dr. Andrew Wells "Identity is what reinforces habits, and habits reinforce identity. There's this infinite loop that we see back and forth." – Dr. Chad Woolner "Think of the actual story of the Trojan horse. You have to package it as something that's beneficial to the person receiving it." – Dr. Andrew Wells "You're training your brain to think and realize that you have control and you can affect the way your body feels and functions." – Dr. Andrew Wells "What that starts to do, in a simple and very, very small way, it starts to start cueing and priming the mind… to establish a new sense of identity." – Dr. Chad Woolner Resources: Simplified Functional Medicine James Clear's "Atomic Habits" (referenced conceptually) HeartMath biofeedback device (mentioned as a resource for patient routines) Listeners are encouraged to dive into the full episode to explore these thought-provoking insights in detail. Stay tuned for more engaging content from the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, where innovative healthcare approaches are always on the agenda.

In der heutigen Folge starten Toni und Marco gewohnt makaber und fragen sich: Was wären eigentlich ihre letzten Worte? Es entspinnt sich ein Gespräch über Abschied, Vermächtnis und absurde letzte Statements. Dann öffnen sich die Pforten zu Annemaries berüchtigter „Folterkammer“ , wo sie die beiden durch die lange und grausame Geschichte der Enthauptung führt – vom Richtschwert bis zur Guillotine. Im Finale begleiten Toni und Marco Shirley in die letzten, dramatischen Stunden einer der bekanntesten Frauen der Tudor-Zeit: Anne Boleyn. Sie erleben das tragische Ende einer Geschichte der Intrigen, Machtspiele und unerfüllter Versprechen – und Shirley erzählt sie mit der gewohnten Mischung aus Detailverliebtheit und Gänsehautgarantie.

This week it's just Jonathan and Gary again, in what some listeners might view as an either a classic ramble or a series of rabbit holes from which we never fully escape. We start with a discussion of some current trends such as cozy fantasy and SF, romantasy, and dark academia, noting that these had all been around for decades before getting their present labels, and briefly consider Paul Kincaid's contention that “coziness” seems antithetical to what SF really does. We later touch upon what we're reading, mentioning some forthcoming books by Nicola Griffith, Alix E. Harrow, and R.F. Kuang and the spectacular success of the latest novel by Coode Street goest Joe Abercrombie. Somewhere in there we start chatting about collectible editions, how many copies of a book do you really need,  historical fantasy, and even a bit on Robert Holdstock. Most important, though, is Coode Street's first commercial. Jonathan and Gary's common home in SF has long been Locus magazine, and we want to encourage our listeners to take a look at some of the neat perks being offered by this year's IndieGoGo fundraiser and to make a contribution if you can.  

Summary of Message: “God's People in the City” by Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. This message focuses on God's call for His people to commit to long-term ministry and outreach, especially in the urban context, under the theme “Each One, Reach One.” Drawing from Acts 18, Pastor Hudson reflects on Paul's ministry in Corinth, emphasizing that God told Paul in a vision, “Do not be afraid... for I have many people in this city.” This refers not only to current believers but to those who would be saved. Key Scripture Text: Acts18:9, Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent; 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.” 11 And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.  Key Themes: God Knows Who Will Be Saved—We Don't God, in His foreknowledge, knows those who will respond to the gospel. Our responsibility is to share the message with everyone—we are not told who will or won't respond. Romans 8:29–30 outlines the process: foreknown, predestined, called, justified, glorified. The Power and Necessity of the Gospel Romans 1:16: “The gospel is the power of God to salvation.” Programs and outreach are good, but they must be vehicles for presenting the gospel. The Concept of “Locus” as Ministry Focus "Locus" means the central area of activity. Paul's “locus” was preaching and teaching where God sent him, even staying for long periods to build impact. We each must identify our personal ministry locus and stay committed. Faithful Commitment Bears Fruit Ministry impact takes time, consistency, and sometimes suffering. Like Paul, we may face opposition, but God can shift us to nearby, fruitful places (e.g., Paul moved next door when rejected at the synagogue). Being planted and focused leads to long-term results. Salvation Process is God's Work—but Requires Our Obedience God does the calling, justifying, and glorifying. Our job is to preach, share, and position ourselves so others can hear and respond. Don't Be Distracted or Discouraged Ministry requires resilience. Not everyone will receive the message. Even if we don't see results, we may be sowing seeds others will water. Christ Is Our Everything 1 Corinthians 1:30 says Christ becomes our wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. No one can boast—salvation is fully God's work. Final Challenge: Recognize that God has people in your city who haven't heard yet. Be intentional about your focus and committed to your calling. Share the gospel faithfully—through outreach, in relationships, and wherever God places you. Conclusion: The city is full of potential believers waiting to hear. Our role is not to figure out who they are, but to be faithful in sharing, knowing that God will do the work of salvation. As Pastor Hudson put it: “Get a real locus—something you can take to heaven with you.”

Many would be forgiven for thinking we don't have much control over our circumstances in life or how we feel about them. At times it might feel like someone or something else is pulling the strings and we simply have to do our best to play along.The Vedic worldview has a very different perspective, which Thom outlines in detail in this podcast episode. Looking through the lens of “locus of control,” Thom explains how we can escape the mindset of inescapability, and learn to better navigate the ups and downs that life inevitably brings.Episode Highlights[00:45] Locus of Control[04:23] Self-Sufficiency and Field Independence[07:03] The Hypnotizable Ones[10:23] Mass Suggestibility[12:50] The Anti-Hypnotic Benefits of Vedic Meditation[15:48] Spontaneous Responsibility[20:28] The Role of Disruption in Evolutionary Change[23:02] The Downside of Contentment[27:42] Phenomenal Adaptive CapacityUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Join hosts J.D. Barker, Christine Daigle, Jena Brown, and Kevin Tumlinson as they discuss the week's entertainment news, including stories about A Million Lives Book Festival, Findaway's INaudio, and Agatha Christie. Then, stick around for a chat with Joe Abercrombie!Joe Abercrombie was born in Lancaster, England, on the last day of 1974. He was educated at the stiflingly all-boy Lancaster Royal Grammar School, where he spent much of his time playing video games, rolling dice, and drawing maps of places that don't exist. He went on to Manchester University to study Psychology. The dice and the maps stopped, but the video games continued. Having long dreamed of single-handedly redefining the fantasy genre, he started to write an epic trilogy based around the misadventures of thinking man's barbarian Logen Ninefingers. The result was pompous toss, and swiftly abandoned.Joe then moved to London, lived in a slum with two men on the borders of madness, and found work making tea for minimum wage at a TV Post-Production company. Two years later he left to become a freelance film editor, and has worked since on a range of documentaries, awards shows, music videos, and concerts for artists ranging from Barry White to Coldplay.This job gave him lots of time off, and realising that he needed something more useful to do than playing video games, in 2001 he sat down once again to write an epic fantasy trilogy based around the misadventures of thinking man's barbarian Logen Ninefingers. This time, having learned not to take himself too seriously in the six years since the first effort, the results were a great deal more interesting.With heroic help and support from his family the first volume, The Blade Itself, was completed in 2004. Following a heart-breaking trail of rejection at the hands of several of Britain's foremost literary agencies, The First Law trilogy was snatched up by Gillian Redfearn of Gollancz in 2005 in a seven-figure deal (if you count the pence columns). A year later The Blade Itself was unleashed on an unsuspecting public. It now has publishers in thirty countries.  The sequels, Before They are Hanged and Last Argument of Kings were published in 2007 and 2008, when Joe was a finalist for the John W. Campbell award for best new writer.  Best Served Cold, a standalone book set in the same world, was published in June 2009, and a second standalone, The Heroes, came in January 2011 and made no. 3 on the Sunday Times Hardcover Bestseller List.  A third standalone, Red Country, was both a Sunday Times and New York Times Hardcover Bestseller in October 2012.The first part of his viking-inspired Shattered Sea series for young and old adults, Half a King, came out in July 2014, when it won the Locus award for best young adult novel.  The other two books, Half the World, and Half a War, followed in January and July 2015.His collection of short fiction, Sharp Ends was published in 2016.  A new trilogy set in the world of the First Law, The Age of Madness, began in September 2019 with A Little Hatred. The Trouble with Peace followed in September 2020, and the final part, The Wisdom of Crowds in September 2021. The first book in a new series, The Devils, will publish in May 2025.Joe now lives in Bath with his wife, Lou, his daughters Grace and Eve, and his son Teddy.  He spends most of his time writing edgy yet humorous fantasy novels…

Dr. Michele Matarazzo interviews Prof. Irena Rektorová about her recent study on early changes in the locus coeruleus in mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies. Using neuromelanin-sensitive MRI, the study reveals selective vulnerability of the caudal locus coeruleus and its association with specific cognitive and other nonmotor features. The conversation explores the implications for early diagnosis, the “body-first” hypothesis, and the potential role of NM-MRI as a biomarker. Read the article.

Sometimes, people will say of a book that "the setting is another character". But what does that really mean, and how can a writer craft it? Ai Jiang joins us to discuss creating worlds and settings that have their own personalities! From the physical geography to the architecture, from the scale of the location to its dynamism, writers can make a lot of choices to make their setting feel unlike any other. The setting can do a lot to set the mood and tone of a story. Is it bright and peppy, or dark and gloomy? What's the vibe? The overlap between setting and aesthetic can be quite high, communicating a lot to your reader about what they might expect from the story and characters. We also often talk about how characters are the products of their circumstances -- and that means they're also products of their surroundings! What about the physical space that they exist in, or have existed in during their life, has shaped them?

What if none of this were real, but instead we were in a simulation? What would that mean about life, about the notion of reality, and about our own existence?  From award-winning, Seattle-based author Daryl Gregory comes a story following two friends on a cross-country bus tour through glitches as they grapple with secrets, love, and family — issues that are not uncommon, except these take place in a simulated world. When We Were Real follows longtime best friends JP and Dulin. When JP finds out his cancer has aggressively returned, Dulin decides it's the perfect time for one last adventure: a week-long bus tour of the Impossibles, the glitches and geographic miracles that started cropping right after the Announcement that revealed our world to be merely a digital simulacrum. The outing promises to be the trip of a (not completely real) lifetime. Unlike other sci-fi hits like The Matrix or Vanilla Sky, these characters know they are simulations. Through this self-awareness, they — as well as readers — explore what it means to be human, to be alive or even real. Through a cast of colorful characters (like a pregnant influencer determined to make her child too famous to be deleted) or the stops they make along the way (like a tunnel outside of time or a motivational-speaking avatar's compound) JP and Dulin have no shortage of things to talk about as they venture toward the tour's final stop, where the travelers may find out who is actually running the simulation. When We Were Real aims to uncover the things that really matter in life, even in an artificial world. Daryl Gregory is the award-winning author of numerous novels, including Revelator, Afterparty, and Spoonbenders, a Nebula, Locus, and World Fantasy Award finalist. His novella We Are All Completely Fine won the World Fantasy Award and the Shirley Jackson Award. He currently resides in Seattle, Washington. Matt Dinniman is a writer, artist, and musician (well, he's a bass player) from Gig Harbor, WA. He is the author of several books, including the bestselling Dungeon Crawler Carl series.   Buy the Book When We Were Real: A Novel Third Place Books

I often hear from my clients the phrase, “If only…” If only my spouse would want more sex, then I could stop feeling so frustrated. If only my spouse would stop pressuring me for sex, then I could feel more comfortable with it. If only… Have you ever thought about how things would change “if only”? If you have, I bet that you have tried to change your spouse. You've bought them books, and sent them podcasts, and they have dug in their heels and stayed exactly the same. Why? Because no one wants to be controlled. That's why we're talking about changing your sexual locus of control in this episode. This is where real change happens. Want to see what you can do? Listen in.

Elena es una desarrolladora de muñecas tan avanzadas en sus algoritmos que son capaces de superar el test de Turing. La sistematización de los algoritmos para lograrlo la llevará, en el estado emocional en que se encuentra, a dudar de la realidad misma. ¿Realmente pensamos las personas? ¿Somos conscientes o funcionamos como una habitación china?. La realidad se vuelve tan predecible, como si de algoritmos se trataran, que incluso el comportamiento humano parece seguir unos patrones fijos. Esto llevará a Elena a tomar una decisión drástica, que corregirá los errores pasados en su propio algoritmo. La protagonista es una programadora que, junto con Brad, su marido, dirige una empresa de fabricación de muñecas con un nivel de inteligencia artificial tan elevado que casi se confunde con la inteligencia humana.

Seth Green, Dean of the University of Chicago Graham School on how to navigate career transitions while keeping sight of our North Star, ‘traveling lightly" as we balance purpose over material wealth in achieving a fulfilling life. The co-architect of the University's Leadership in Society Initiative, aimed at helping accomplished individuals transition to meaningful second careers, argues the importance of lifelong learning, especially in a rapidly changing world in which many are now climbing two career mountains. Ultimately, he says, we need to align our careers with personal values and to balance joy and meaning in work.  Title draws on David Brooks' concept of the "Second Mountain." #Business #Leadership

Jesse kicks today's show off with a monologue on the importance of having the right temperament for investing - it's not really about intelligence at all. Emotional stability and disciplined decision making outweigh expertise and intelligence when investing. The Dunning-Kruger effect and the paradox of choice are also highlighted, emphasizing the need to prioritize action over perfection in personal finance. For the second half of the show, Dr. Brad Klontz, Co-Founder of the Financial Psychology Institute and author of Start Thinking Rich, joins to discuss “money scripts”, which are subconscious beliefs about money inherited from previous generations, our society, or other people we're surrounded by. Throughout the conversation, the duo dispels myths about wealth, and makes a distinction between being “poor” (a limiting mindset) and being “broke” (a temporary financial state). The conversation gets deep into the stories we tell ourselves, how we present money, and how to adopt an internal locus of control and make lifestyle changes.  This episode is a must listen for anyone wanting to explore their own “money scripts” and rethink the way they talk to themselves - and others - about money. Key Takeaways:• How the Dunning-Kruger effect is affecting your investing decisions. • The difference between a satisficer and a maximizer - and why you may want to be the former. • What is a “money script”? And how can you change yours? • The patterns you may have inherited from even your great grandparents. • Consider how you rank on the following four patterns: avoidance, worship, vigilance, and status. • Research backed psychological insights about your relationship with money.

For our year-end review of 2024 books, we're joined once again by fellow Locus reviewer Ian Mond and distinguished critic and novelist James Bradley. As usual, we mention a lot of authors and titles, and probably forget to mention many deserving others. But you'll no doubt find some suggestions you hadn't thought of, and some of our usual digressions about familiar questions of genre, literary ambition, and books that at least some of us think have been overlooked. Ian's list We probably should have kept lists, but we did not. Ian did, though, and so that's provided to you with our thanks to him.

At the end of October Reactor published their list of The Most Iconic Speculative Fiction Books of the 21st Century, which attempted to list the best/top/favourite science fiction and fantasy books of the past 25 years. Two weeks later Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy award-winning writer Jo Walton published a follow-on piece on Reactor, On Selecting the Top Ten Genre Books of the First Quarter of the Century, where she discussed how she went about picking her contribution, while finding a classic reader's workaround that allowed her to name a lot more than ten books. That caught Locus reviewer Niall Harrison's attention and lead directly to us inviting Jo to join us for a delightful and really interesting conversation on the subject. While we hope you enjoy the podcast, we have to mention their were some audio difficulties. We've done the very best we can to make everything work, but we do apologise for any audio issues you experience while listening to the episode.

In this week's episode, we begin a three part series on Pope Francis' recent encyclical Dilexit Nos (on the human and divine love of the Heart of Jesus Christ). We discuss how God, as the Divine initiator, loved us first and continuously calls us deeper into His most Sacred Heart. We also reflect on the meaning of our hearts, being captivated by Jesus' love, and the beauty of allowing Him to set our hearts aflame.   Heather's One Thing - Man and Woman and the Order of Creation Conference at Franciscan University (view the livestream here) Sister Miriam's One Thing - Tomato Basil Soup Michelle's One Thing - The book Sons in the Son by Fr. Innocent Montgomery, CFR, and Fr. Angelus Montgomery, CFR   Other Resources Mentioned:  “Dilexit Nos”: A brief guide for busy readers Dilexit Nos audio version   Journal Questions: Who am I, really? What am I looking for? What direction do I want to give to my life? Why and for what purpose am I in the world? How do I want to look back on my life once it ends? What meaning do I want to give to all my experiences? Who do I want to be for others? Who am I for God?   Discussion Questions: How do you belittle or dismiss the movements of your own heart? When do you feel distanced from your heart in this season? How can you minimize the distance you have from your heart this week? How do you self-protect instead of making a self-gift? What direction do you want to give to your life? Why and for what purpose are you in the world?   Quotes to Ponder: “The heart is also the locus of sincerity, where deceit and disguise have no place. It usually indicates our true intentions, what we really think, believe and desire, the “secrets” that we tell no one: in a word, the naked truth about ourselves. It is the part of us that is neither appearance or illusion, but is instead authentic, real, entirely “who we are”.”  (Pope Francis, “Dilexit Nos”, Paragraph 5)   “If we devalue the heart, we also devalue what it means to speak from the heart, to act with the heart, to cultivate and heal the heart. If we fail to appreciate the specificity of the heart, we miss the messages that the mind alone cannot communicate; we miss out on the richness of our encounters with others; we miss out on poetry.”  (Pope Francis, “Dilexit Nos”, Paragraph 11) Scripture for Lectio:   “He loved us first.”  (1 John 4:19)   Sponsor - Reform Wellness: Reform Wellness is a Christ-centered functional medicine and holistic wellness ministry.
