Upon reading the beginning of this homily, one clearly gets the sense that Saint Isaac the Syrian wants our understanding of the spiritual life, who we are as human beings, and a relationship with God (who has created us in His image and likeness), to be set on a foundation that is unshakable. One must love Isaac for the effort! He is giving us eyes to see.  He began by presenting us with an image of a soul who truly abides in her nature, and so comes to penetrate into and understand the wisdom of God. Knowing nothing of the impediment of the passions, the soul is lifted up toward God and is astonished and struck with wonder. This is Isaac's starting point for a reason. He wants us to regain what over the course of time has been lost; that is, our perception the beauty and wonder of how God has created us and our natural capacity for love and virtue. Furthermore, it is not just about perception but the experience of being God bearers and temples of the Holy Spirit. It is about our deification.  What has distorted or understanding is the emergence of the passions and how we have come to view them. Isaac tells us categorically that the soul by nature is passionless. We are created in God‘s image and likeness and it is only the emergence of sin that has darken that which was created to be filled with light. Thus, when a soul is moved in a passionate way, she is outside her nature. The passions have the ability to move the soul after the fall. There's a radical communion between body and soul and with sin our experience of the world through the senses and in our desires and appetites become distorted. The break of communion with God leads to an internal break within us as human beings; a fragmentation on the deepest level of our existence. What is the nature of a soul created for communion when it pursues autonomy from the one who created her in love? Is it not only the loss of unity with God but within ourselves and our capacity to experience and reflect our true dignity?  Saint Isaac makes us work in these paragraphs and grapple to understand what he's saying. Yet, it is a labor of love; for it is upon the foundation of this understanding of our nature that we will once again be able to see the wonder and beauty of how God has created us and experience the healing necessary to reflect this wondrous reality to the world. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:17:20 Bob Čihák, AZ: P. 127, paragraph 1 00:31:07 Lindsey Funair: When I hear the memories of the soul grow old, it reminds me that the soul knows not ego or attachment, it remembers only what is worthy of taking to Paradise, only that that is in Love. That is all there is once the world and self-love and other things that are not Love, is filtered from our memory. 00:31:13 Anthony: It's important to say that Isaac was born into a time and geography of turmoil and he wasn't living in comfort locked away from the outside. 00:31:43 Maureen Cunningham: Washington Carfer 00:31:52 Maureen Cunningham: Carver 00:33:02 Troyce Garrett Quimpo: This sections reminds me of St John of the Cross's Purgative Way. 00:36:11 Anthony: George Washington Carver 00:36:20 Vanessa: famous Black inventer 00:40:08 Maureen Cunningham: Yes George Washington Carver thank you , a little book I read . A Man who talked to flowers. 00:40:34 Anthony: I think when Isaac refers to philosophers he might have in mind the humors that dominate a man or the astrologers who Forcast about a person. 00:42:08 Lindsey Funair: it helps me to think of passions in this sense of Maslow's entire hierarchy, those things which are necessary to life and living and connecting with others and doing good, but when focused on directly become a distraction from the humility and obedience which place us "in" our soul and in relative connection to God 00:42:08 Manuel: How this idea that the soul is passionless by nature fit in with the opening of the Philokalia “There is among the passions an anger of the intellect, and this anger is in accordance with nature. Without anger a man cannot attain purity”? 00:44:25 Vanessa: When I went to university, I always thought the academics disciplines were centered around "explaining the world without God." 00:44:51 Anthony: I wrote it 00:44:56 Kathy Locher: What in our nature would have made us susceptible to temptation. Especially, given that we were living in Eden in God's company? 00:45:31 Ryan N: Father what would your response be to those who emphasize the importance of the body because it is equally made in the image and likeness of God ( not just the soul) 00:46:35 Myles Davidson: Reacted to "What in our nature w..." with

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    Can you really stop a dog from chasing deer or anything else without an e-collar? Yes, and I'm sharing how. There's an ongoing commentary that it's impossible to train certain dogs, especially those with high prey drive, to come when called using only reinforcement-based methods. Now, those of us who are reinforcement-based trainers know that it's absolutely possible. The secret lies in understanding the Canine Predatory Motor Sequence. Rather than trying to stop dogs at the end of the sequence when it's way too late, we focus on the early stages and what we want our dogs to do.    In this episode, you'll hear:   • Why some say reinforcement-based training alone can't stop high prey drive dogs. • How the canine predatory motor sequence works and why it matters for your dog's behavior • Why suppressing behavior isn't training, and what I do instead. • The three common ways people deal with behavior problems and which one really works. • How I use predatory redirection to interrupt chase drive. • A real-life example of Prophet ignoring deer just 15 feet away. • How we changed Tater Salad's behavior using relationship-building games. • Special opportunity to join my Home School the Dog program. • Why head halters can act like emergency brakes when you need them. • How I redirect Kim's rescue dog Waffles from distractions to focus back to me and what you can take away from it.   Join Home School the Dog: To join Home School the Dog at a special discount, write to us at wag@dogsthat.com with the subject line: Prey Drive Learn To Play ItsYerChoice: Learn how to play the ItsYerChoice (IYC) Game - https://recallers.com/iycsummit-join/ Hand Target and More Foundational Games Get the Hand Target Game and more foundational training games in our free Connected Dog Season of Nuance Video Series running for a limited time - https://learn.doggyflix.com/   Resources:   1.

Susan Kelsey has authored four historical books and produced the award-winning documentary, “The Negotiator: Billy Caldwell.”   In this episode, Susan shares her journey of discovering Billy Caldwell, the "Great Negotiator" of early Chicago. She reflects on the leadership lessons she learned from both Caldwell and Native American leaders, focusing on values like moral courage, tenacity, and the importance of handling success and failure with grace. Through her work with Native American tribes, Susan has gained a deeper understanding of leadership—one rooted in respect, curiosity, and self-awareness. She talks about the vital role storytelling plays in leadership and how it can make complex ideas more relatable.  Driven by a lifelong curiosity, Susan shares how her hands-on experiences, like earning her pilot's license and working on documentaries, continue to shape her perspective on leadership and learning.  Tune in to hear her insights on the wisdom of elders, the value of cultural understanding, and how these lessons inform modern leadership today.     Key Takeaways [04:06] Susan's journey with Billy Caldwell began after noticing a plaque in her neighborhood. Over 30 years, she learned about Caldwell's role as a negotiator between Native Americans and European settlers, shaping Chicago's history. Caldwell's unique position allowed him to influence key treaties, including the 1829 and 1833 Treaties, which played a major role in the region's development. [07:03] Susan described Billy Caldwell as the "ultimate glue guy," bridging cultural gaps between Native Americans, military settlers, and Europeans. His ability to understand both worlds helped him play a key role in negotiating important treaties for the Chicago area. His military background and unique perspective made him a crucial figure in shaping Chicago's history. [09:29] Susan believes strong moral values and the willingness to stand for one's beliefs, even at personal cost, set leaders apart. She emphasized that leaders like Billy Caldwell had the courage to take risks for the greater good. Moral leadership is key to achieving lasting change and making a positive impact. [10:53] Building trust with indigenous tribes took years of effort for Susan, including traveling to Kansas and embracing vulnerability. She learned that respect, curiosity, and open communication are essential in fostering meaningful relationships. Developing trust takes time, but it's vital in working with diverse communities. [13:52] Susan's persistence paid off when the Potawatomi tribe eventually approved her revised documentary. She learned that tenacity is key, especially when working through rejection. A surprising conversation with the tribe revealed that they didn't see the loss of the Great Lakes as a loss, challenging Susan's understanding of their culture. [15:28] Susan emphasized the importance of listening more than speaking in cultural interactions. She explained that silence is highly valued in indigenous communities, and actively listening can build trust. Reflecting back what's heard fosters stronger relationships and a deeper understanding. [18:38] When Jan asked about her motivations, Susan revealed that lifelong curiosity drives her pursuits. She believes true learning comes from hands-on experiences, not just books or videos. Her curiosity led her to earn a pilot's license to confront her fear of flying, highlighting her need to fully immerse herself in new experiences. [19:47] Susan never tires of filmmaking, as it allows endless creativity. She loves collaborating with Native American musicians to create meaningful soundtracks for her documentaries. Despite the high costs of filmmaking, she finds ways to fund her projects and emphasizes that the value of a story doesn't depend on the budget. [21:07] Susan learned timeless wisdom from her work with Native American cultures, especially regarding grace in leadership. Handling both victories and defeats with dignity leaves a lasting impression. She learned this lesson through political mentors and experiences with Native American tribes, emphasizing grace as essential in leadership. [23:09] Susan explained that Native American cultures view leadership as more than survival—it's about self-awareness. The Blackfoot Indians' perspective on Maslow's hierarchy, which prioritizes self-awareness over basic needs, challenged Susan's thinking. This worldview has shaped her understanding of leadership and personal growth. [24:57] Storytelling is a powerful leadership tool, helping leaders connect with others and make complex ideas relatable. Susan stressed that modern leaders should listen to elders, especially in uncertain times, for their valuable insights. Native American cultures offer wisdom that can guide today's leaders through challenging situations. [27:07] When asked about becoming an elder, Susan shared that the title is a great honor in Native American cultures. Elders are respected for both their age and the wisdom they have gained over time. She contrasted this respect with how older generations are often treated in other societies, underscoring the value of experience. [28:26] Susan's documentaries aim to spark meaningful conversations and encourage people to learn from one another. She highlighted the importance of curiosity and education in her work. Slowing down and reflecting on new ideas can provide valuable insights in today's fast-paced world. [30:41]  And remember...“When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes, they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.” - Chief Tecumseh   Quotable Quotes "We just need to be curious about each other, learn about each other and respect each other and... and develop that trust where we can have a nice, healthy, honest conversation." "How you hold yourself and the grace that you have is what people will remember." "We know who we are, we know where we came from, we know where we're going, and so we know if we know who we are, we can do anything. We can find food, we can find shelter, we can build community."

Ryann Gerber Jorban joins Dr. Sandie Morgan to discuss how labor exploitation functions as a hidden form of modern-day slavery, and how community collaboration, empathy, and survivor-centered strategies are critical in addressing labor trafficking. Ryann Gerber Jorban Ryann Gerber Jorban is a seasoned prosecutor with the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office, where she has served since 1998. With a background in sociology from UC Riverside and a law degree from the University of Michigan, she has devoted her career to seeking justice for vulnerable communities, including children, the elderly, and survivors of abuse and human trafficking. In her role as Deputy in Charge, she leads both the Economic Justice and Labor Justice Units, focusing on wage theft, labor exploitation, and fraud. Ryann is nationally recognized for her survivor-centered approach, combining legal expertise with a deep commitment to collaboration, trust building, and meeting survivors' foundational needs. She was also a featured speaker at the 2025 Ensure Justice Conference, where she shared her insights on labor trafficking and the exploitation of children. Key Points Ryann Gerber Jorban describes labor exploitation as a spectrum, with wage theft on one end and labor trafficking on the other, highlighting how quickly one can escalate into the other. Her role involves leading efforts to address wage theft and labor fraud, particularly in sectors vulnerable to exploitation such as construction, restaurants, and healthcare. Labor trafficking often relies on coercion rather than force, such as threats of deportation or withholding pay, to control vulnerable workers. She explains that being paid less than minimum wage does not disqualify a situation from being trafficking—it's about how a person is controlled or coerced. In a case involving garment workers, individuals were found working 55 hours a week for just $5–$6 an hour, illustrating severe labor violations. She emphasizes building legal cases without placing the burden on the victim, allowing survivors time to stabilize before contributing to legal proceedings. Ryann integrates Maslow's hierarchy of needs into her legal strategy, ensuring victims have basic needs met before asking them to participate in investigations. She highlights the role of community-based organizations in providing culturally competent care and case management for victims. The importance of collaboration across law enforcement, nonprofits, faith communities, and local agencies is key to supporting survivors and combating labor trafficking. Consumers have a role to play by asking ethical questions and avoiding businesses with exploitative labor practices. Disasters create heightened risks for labor exploitation, and vigilance is needed during rebuilding efforts to ensure ethical labor is used. Faith communities are uniquely positioned to help identify signs of exploitation and educate their congregations in simple, practical ways.

Introduction to Achieving Self-Actualization The Hidden Battle Behind Success You can have the six-figure career, the family, the body, the house... and still feel something's missing. That's the silent battle most high-achieving men face. You've climbed the mountain, but instead of peace at the peak, you find... emptiness. A sense that something deeper remains untouched. That, my friend, is the call to self-actualization. For me, that call came in the most unexpected way...while gasping for air under the crushing weight of an avalanche. One moment, I was charging down the slope. The next, everything went white. In that suspended silence, buried in snow, I realized: if this was it... had I lived fully? That moment didn't just shake me. It cracked something open. In this article, I'll walk you through the warrior's journey to achieving self-actualization. We'll dismantle outdated self-help myths, reframe Maslow's model through the Warrior Mind lens, and give you a clear, practical path to deeper fulfillment. Achieving self-actualization is not a luxury...it's a necessity for high performers who want more than surface-level success. What Is Self-Actualization? (And Why Most Get It Wrong) Psychologist Abraham Maslow described self-actualization as the peak of human potential...the full realization of who you truly are. But here's where most people get stuck: They treat self-actualization as an achievement... not a journey. Maslow's famous pyramid places self-actualization at the top. But in truth, the pyramid isn't linear. Life constantly pulls us back down into survival, relationships, or esteem challenges. Fulfillment isn't a one-time destination...it's a practice. True self-actualization comes when you live in alignment with your highest values, not society's expectations. When your outer life reflects your inner truth. When purpose, presence, and power converge. And it demands one thing above all: courage. Achieving self-actualization requires consistent, conscious choices that reflect your authentic self rather than your conditioned self. Why Achieving Self-Actualization Matters More Than Ever Without achieving self-actualization, success becomes a prison. I know what it's like to chase money, status, and validation. To be driven by fear of being "not enough." I also know what it's like to shatter those illusions...and step into a life powered by purpose. When you align with your true self: > You stop performing and start living > Your relationships deepen > Your energy expands > You become unshakeable...no matter what life throws your way For me, that shift began in the fire. Literally. Firewalking during a shamanic initiation forced me to override decades of mental conditioning. Each step across the coals was a step into a new identity: someone who chooses growth over comfort. Achieving self-actualization matters because your legacy depends on it. It gives you the clarity, strength, and freedom to live on your own terms. The Warrior's Fulfillment Ladder (Maslow Reimagined) Maslow's Level Warrior's Challenge Warrior's Mindset Shift Gregg's Story Anchor Physiological Needs Prioritizing health, breath, movement "My body is my foundation for power" Overcoming asthma through fitness Safety Needs Facing fear, instability, risk "Uncertainty is where growth lives" Buried in an avalanche and reclaiming presence Love/Belonging Building aligned tribes "I am worthy of authentic connection" Healing from divorce by finding new brotherhood Esteem Detaching from ego, external validation "I create my own worth" From insecure teen to confident coach Self-Actualization Living truth, embodying purpose "I am here to serve and evolve" Firewalking, shamanic work, coaching transformations Common Blocks on the Path to Fulfillment Let's be real. Most men sabotage achieving self-actualization without realizing it.

Vrienden. Het is weer die tijd. Tijd voor praten over tijd, energie en geld. En een keer niet over beleggenJe ruilt tijd en energie voor geld door te werken. Omgekeerd ruil je geld voor tijd en energie als je vrije tijd neemt. Ook is het zo dat vrijwel alles iets vraagt van één of meerdere van je levensvaluta. Een nieuwe laptop kiezen is gedoe en kost geld om te kopen. Praten met je schoonmoeder kost tijd en energie. Net als koken voor je eerste date, vooral als je date blijft slapen. Daarnaast hebben we het over 'wat is genoeg' en de fulfillment curve (iets wat lijkt op de piramide van Maslow, maar dan toch anders) en de hedonische adaptatie.

Dan: Mr Jackson, it's been a while, it's been a while. Dean: And yet here we are. Like no time has passed. Dan: Yes. Dean: Because it's now. Dan: But I've put on a lot of bear miles since I saw you last. Dean: Yeah, tell me about your journeys. Dan: Yeah well, buenos Aires. Yep Just got back yesterday and am in considerable pain. Oh really what happened. Well, they give you new stem cells. So now, they're going after. They're going still on the knee, but now they're going after tendons and ligaments, yeah, and so this may seem contrarian, but if you're in pain, it means that they're working. Dean: Oh, okay. Dan: How's that? For a compelling offer If you feel really bad about this, it means that what I'm offering you is a great solution. Dean: Yeah, with a name like Smuckers, it's got to be good, right yeah? What was that cough syrup that was known to taste so bad? Buckley's, buckley's. Dan: Tastes so bad. Tastes awful Works great. Dean: Yeah, that's right. That's the perfect thing. Tastes awful, works great. So were they completely pleased with your progress. Dan: it's, yeah, I think that the from what I can tell from they. They show you pictures of other complete cartridges. You know, okay, with other people and my left this is my left knee an injury from 1975. 1975, uh-huh, so 50 years, and it progressively wore down. It was a meniscus tear and in those days they would remove the torn part of the meniscus, which they don't do anymore. They have new surgical glue and they just glue it back together again. But this is the. This is one of the cost of living in over a period of history where things get better and so, as a result, I have a cartilage today which is equal and capability as it was before I tore it in 1975. However, all the adjustments my left leg and my head to make, 50-year period of adjusting to a deteriorating capability in my left there was a lot of calcification and stresses and strains on the tendons. So now that they can see the complete cartilage back, they can know exactly what they have to do with the otherons. So now that they can see the complete cartilage back, they can know exactly what they have to do with the other things. So they still reinforce it. So I get new stem cells for the cartilage because it has to be reinforced and so it's a good thing. I'm planning to live another 75 years because I think every quarter over that period I'm going to be going to Argentina. Dean: Oh boy, this is great. Dan: Or Argentina, is coming to me. They're going through their FDA phases right now and he's getting the doctor scientist who created this is getting his permanent resident card in the United States. So I think probably five years five years it'll be available to others. You know they don't have to make the trip. Dean: Well, that's great so now you've got the knee cartilage of a preteen Swedish boy. We were bouncing around the mountains. Dan: Yeah, something like that, yeah, something like that, something like that it's interesting that it wasn't 1975 when the $6 million man started out. Dean: That's what you're going to end up as the $6 million man. We can rebuild. We'll see. Dan: Yeah, but I had. While we were there, we had a longtime client from Phoenix was down. He was working on knees and rotator cuffs in his shoulders. Dean: And. Dan: I was able to say does it hurt? And he says yes, it does, and I said that means it's working. Dean: That means it's working. Dan: Yeah, and I said. He said you didn't tell me about the pain part before you encouraged me to come down here and I said, well, why? You know? Why, pull around with a clear message. Dean: And I said well, why, you know why fool around with a clear message, Right, I remember when Dave Astry had he had, like you know, a hundred thousand dollars worth of all of it done, all the joints, all the like full body stuff, and he was just in such pain afterwards for a little while. But how long does the pain last? Dan: Imagine it's like getting well, if I go by the previous trips, which were not equal in intensity to this one, there was about three or four days. Three or four days and then you know, you're, you're up and around. Yeah, as a result of this, I'm not going to be able to make my Arizona trip, because this week for genius Right, because? I'm going to have to be in wheelchairs and everything. And if there's one place in the world you don't want to be not able to walk around, it's Phoenix. Because, it's all walking. That's the truth. Yeah, up and down. So we're calling that off for now, and yeah, so anyway, and anyway. But they're really thriving down there. They're building a new clinic in a different part of the city, which is a huge city. I never realized how big Buenos Aires is. It's along the same size as London, you know London. Dean: England. Yeah right, you know how big London is. How long are you go on each trip? How long are you there? Dan: We arrive on a Sunday morning and we leave on a Friday night. Okay, so the whole week. Yeah, yeah, it's about eight days, eight travel days, because on Saturday we have to go to Atlanta to catch the next plane. Dean: Yeah. Dan: That's either a dog or a monkey. Which do you have there? Dean: That was a dog, my neighbor's. I'm sitting out in my courtyard. That was my neighbor's dog. It's an absolutely beautiful Florida morning today, I mean it is room temperature with a slight breeze. It's just so peaceful out here in my courtyard aside from working out Well. Dan: you're close to the Fountain of Youth. That's exactly right. How many? 100 miles? 100 miles to the north, st Augustine, that's right. That's exactly right. Dean: Yeah, this whole. Just look at. Dan: The De Leon. That's right yeah. Dean: This whole just look at the day. Leon, yeah, I know my I think we're going to look back at this time. You know like what? You are on the leading edge of big advantage of these treatments. You know the things that are available medically, medical science wise to us, and you realize how. I was having a conversation with Charlotte this morning about the I want to layer in you know the benchmarks technologically around the things that we've been talking about in terms of text and pictures and audio and video and seeing them as capabilities where it all started. You know, and it's amazing that really all of it, aside from the printing press with gutenberg, is really less than 150 years old, all of it, because she asked about the benchmarks along the way and if you went from Gutenberg to different evolutions of the press, to the typewriter, to the word processors in personal computing and digital, you know PDFs and all of that stuff and distribution has really only started. You know full scale in 150 years, along with the phonograph in the mid-1800s, the, you know, photography and moving pictures all kind of happened in that one 1850 to 1900 period. You know, but the big change of course, yeah, 1900 to 1950. Dan: Well, you know it's interesting because it's built like the question of what are the tallest mountains on the planet, and the answer is not Mount Everest. The tallest mountains on the planet are the Hawaiian Islands. Dean: Oh, okay. Dan: You know, the big one, the big island, I think the top peak there, Mauna Loa. I think Mauna Loa is a name of it and it's about 30,. Everest is 20, 29,000 and change, but Mauna Loa is around 32,000. Dean: Is that right yeah? Dan: but it's. You know that's an island that goes right down to the ocean floor and I think the same thing with technology is that we look back and we just take it back to sea level. We take technology back but we don't see the massive, you know, the mass amount of growth that was. That was over tens of thousands of years. That was before you could actual changing technology. I think probably have the perception maybe you know 150 or 200 years where we can see changes in technology over a decade. You know it would be a tremendous thing. It's the perception of change that I think has suddenly appeared on the planet. You know, and I think that the big one, there were three right in a row it was steam power, it was electricity and it was internal combustion. You had those three multiplier technologies Steam 18, no 1770s, 17,. You know it was fully developed probably right at the time of the American Revolution 1776. You had really, dependably, certain steam power right around then. You had to have that multiplier. You had to have that multiplier for there to be significant, frequent technological jumps. You had to have this. Before that, it was slavery. It was animals and slavery that got you, and that didn't change. Dean: Yeah, I mean because the steam. That's what really was. The next big revolution in the printing press was the steam powered printing Steam powered presses. Dan: Yeah, steam presses. Dean: That allowed the newspapers to really take off then yeah. Dan: Yeah, it's fascinating. Dean: You know that you have Charlotte in my who knows all of that. Dan: You better explain that, you better explain that. Dean: I think all of our for the new listeners. Well, there may be new people. There may be new people today. Dan: You know, yes, I don't want my reputation. Dean: That's so funny. Well, even that you know having an AI that we have named Charlotte, my chat GPT buddy, to be able to bounce these ideas off and she gets it. I mean, she sees the thing, ideas off and she gets it. I mean, she sees the thing. But you know, it's really what you said about the islands. You know the sea floor right, the bedrock, the level all the way down is where that is. And I think if you look at, even before Gutenberg, the platform that was built on, for there to be movable type, there had to be type, that had to be the alphabet, the alphabet had to be. And it's just amazing when you think about what would have been the distribution method and the agreement that this was the alphabet. This is what this, this is what we're all gonna do and these are the words. Dan: And I'm fascinated by that whole, that whole development, because all that, yeah, yeah, it's really interesting because, as far as we can tell, it's it's roughly about 3 000 years ago. The alphabet eastern mediterranean is basically, but where it really took on that we notice a historical impact is with the Greeks. Their alphabet and ours isn't all that different. I think it's got a few letters different using our set of ABC. It's like 80%, 80%, 85% similarity between that and the. Greek alphabet. And the other thing is did the culture, or did the country, if you will, that? Had it, did they have any other powers? I mean, were they military powers, were they? Maritime powers and the Greeks had it. The Greeks were, they had military power. They had, you know, they were you know they weren't an island, but they had a lot of ports to the Mediterranean. And did they have ideas to go along with the alphabet? Did they have significant, significant ideas? Powerful because they were that's where the spotlight was for new thinking about things at the same time that the alphabet appeared. So they could, you know, they could get this out to a lot of different people and but it's not. It's not very old in terms of time on the planet. Right when you think about the big picture, yeah, yeah, and you could see how the countries that the civilizations, countries, cultures that did not have the alphabet, how they didn't make the same kind of progress. Dean: Yeah, that's. Dan: I mean, it's really and then the Arabic numbering system was huge, where you had zero, you had nine, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and you had zero, and zero made all this. Nothing made all the difference in the world. Nothing made all the difference. Dean: oh, that's funny, I heard a comedian talking about the Greek salad. It was such a. It gave us so much so early. But really all we've gotten in the last few hundred years is the salad, the Greek salad they've kind of been resting on their laurels, you know. Dan: Yeah, don't forget souvlaki. Dean: Oh yes, souvlaki, Exactly. Dan: Souvlaki is a very big contribution to human progress. Dean: Uh-huh and baklava, Baklava yeah. Yes, that's so funny. I had an interesting thought the other day. I was talking with someone about where does this go? You start to see now the proliferation of AI being used in content creation poll. You know 82% of people don't trust any content that's created to be. You know whether it's authentic or whatever, or real compared to. Dan: AI created and yeah, of course I don't trust that poll. Dean: Right, exactly. Dan: None of that. How could you possibly get a poll? Dean: I know. Dan: I mean how you know your hundred closest friends. Dean: I mean, is that what I mean exactly? Dan: I think that whole thing 82 out of my hundred closest friends who's? Got a hundred close. Who's got a hundred closest friends? You know, like that yeah and you know I mean so. It's ridiculous. What we know is that it's pervasive and it's growing. Dean: Yes, that's true, I can tell. Dan: And you know I was really struck by it, like if I go back two years, let's say, you know the spring of 23. Dean: Yeah. Dan: And yeah, and I'm having my connector calls, especially with the raise owners, and you know so maybe there's 15 people on the call two years ago and maybe one of them is one of these lead scouts. He does things technological, you know, it could be Lior Weinstein or Chad Jenkins, like that, or Mike Koenigs might be Mike Koenigs, and of course they're into it and they're into it and they're making very confident predictions about where this is all going, and I go to three weeks ago, when I had two FreeZone podcasts day after each other, tuesday and Wednesday, and there might have been a combined 23 different people. A couple of people appeared twice, so 23 people and every one of them was involved in some way with AI. That had happened over a two-year period and there wasn't any, what I would say, wonder about this. There wasn't any sense. Of you know, this is amazing or anything. They're just talking about it as if it's a normal thing. So fundamental capability has gotten into the entrepreneurial marketplace and is now considered normal. Dean: Yeah, Just the way like yeah. And Wi-Fi is, you know, internet. We take that for granted. Yeah, I worry, though, that I think like, generationally, where does this head? I'm saying that it just seems like a proliferation of intellectual incest is where we're headed with that, that if all the new you know, generative ai are just regurgitating, assembling stuff that already exists, who's creating the new thoughts in there? Dan: you know, well you say you're worried I'm not worried. Dean: I don't, I mean you're not worried, I'm not worried, I'm just, you're like one of those people who says they're curious, but they actually don't care. I don't, I don't really care. You're right, they want to be seen as caring. Dan: You want to be seen as worrying. Dean: Yeah, thanks for calling me out. Dan: You're not worried at all. Dean: Yeah, that's it. I need you to keep me in check. Dan: Actually, you're luxuriating in your inequality. Dean: Yes, exactly Because I know I'm coming up with original ideas. That's right. Well, has it changed at all? No, I think that's the thing. I'm just observing it. I'm really starting to see. I think I mentioned years ago, probably when we first started the Joy of Procrastination podcast I read an article about the tyranny of convenience and I thought that was really interesting. Right, that convenience is kind of an unrated driver of things. We're like on the, you know, at the we're on the exponential curve of convenience now that there's very little need to do anything other than decide that's what you want, you know, and I think, riding on that level, I just see, like, where things are going now, like, if you think about it, the beginning of the 1900s we were, if you wanted to go anywhere, it was with a horse right. And we're at a situation now I've had it my the new tesla self-driving, they've got the full self-driving thing is, I was, I went to meet with Ilko in Vero Beach, which is about an hour and a half away, hour and 15 minutes away, and I pulled out of my driveway not even out of my driveway, I just pulled out of my garage and I said you know, navigate to the restaurant where we were meeting in Vero Beach, and then I, literally, dan, did not touch the wheel as we pulled into the restaurant All the way. The entire drive was done by Tesla and to me. You know, you see now that we're literally one step away from hopping in the backseat and just waking up when you get there, kind of thing. We're inches away from that now because functionally, it's already happening and I have 100% confidence in it. It's you, it's. It's an amazing advancement and I just think about every single thing, like you know, every possible thing that could be done for you is that's where we're moving towards. Do you know, dan Martell? Have you met dan? Dan: no, I heard his name, so he's a really cool guy. Dean: He wrote a book recently called buy back your time, but his, you know, he's made his name with sas companies, he had a sas academy and he's a investor and creates that. But he said the modern, the new modern definition is, you know, instead of software as a service, it's we're moving into success as a service, that it's delivering the result to people, as opposed to the tool that you can use to create the result. And I think that's where we're going with AI more than I don't think people learn how to use the tool as much as people organizing the tool to deliver popular results that people are going to want. And I think that that's really what you know. Electricity, if you go all the way back, like if you think about that's probably on the magnitude of the impact, right, but even way beyond that. But if you think about it, wasn't just electricity, it was what that capability, the capability of electricity, opened up, the possibility for the ability to have constant refrigeration. You know some of the application of that core capability and lighting, and lighting exactly. Dan: Lighting, lighting, yeah. Dean: So I think that's where we're yeah, looking back you know you know. Dan: The thing that strikes me, though, is it all depends on the aspirations of the individual who has these things available and my sense is, I don't see any increase, relatively speaking, in people's aspiration you don't see any increase in people's aspiration. I don't think people are any more ambitious now than when I started coaching, so they have I'll just quote you back a distinction which you made, which I think is an incredibly important distinction the ability, the difference between an ability and a capability. People have enormous capability, exponential capability, but I don't see their abilities getting any better. Right, I agree. Yes. So it doesn't mean that everybody can do anything. Actually only a very small few of people can do anything yeah. And so I think people's ability to be in the gap has gone up exponentially because they're not taking advantage of the capabilities that are there. So they feel actually, as things improve, they're getting worse. That's why the drug addiction is so high. Drug addiction is so high and addiction is so high is that people have a profound sense that, even though the world around them is getting better, they're not. Dean: Yeah, I just thought. As you're saying, all that you know is thinking about that capability and ability. That's a profound distinction. I think so, yeah. Dan: But also the the thing I'll write it down, and I'll write it down and send to you to know that. Dean: I'm serious about it, okay, but the thing people's desire for the things that ability can provide, you know, is I think there's a opportunity there in if you have the capability to, if you have the ability to apply a capability to get somebody a result that they want and value without having to go and develop the ability to create it, I think there's an opportunity there. That's kind of along the lines of that success as a service. Dan: No on an individual basis yes. But nothing's changed between the inequality of certain individuals and other individuals. Dean: Nothing's changed there. No, I think you're right, it's still distribution. Dan: Except that I think people are feeling it's still distribution, Except that the people who I think people are feeling more unequal. Dean: Yeah, yeah, but the ability to and I think AI gives people, you know, the ability to do create content at scale that they wouldn't have the ability to do otherwise. You know, even though it's mediocre, I think that's really the thing we're going to be able to have a, you know, an onslaught of no, I think it magnifies who you are to begin with. Dan: If you're mediocre, I think you get exponential mediocrity I guess. Dean: Thank you, I don't think. Dan: I don't think it takes a poor writer and makes them into a great writer. No, it does not. Dean: That's what I'm saying. Dan: Because they don't have the discernment between what's good writing and bad writing to start with. Well, how would they know when to get the AI back? I mean grammatically, I mean if they're bad at grammar, correct spelling, but that's not meaning, that doesn't have anything to do with meaning. So, yeah, so you know, I'm noticing. I mean I've normalized it already. I mean I put everything through perplexity. I read a whole paragraph and I run it through and then I'll add context to it, I'll add dimensions to it and I think but I'm the one coming up with the prompts, I doing the prompts, it's not prompting. It doesn't prompt me at all right you know, yeah, it doesn't impress me. Till the day I start in the morning, says Dan, while you were sleeping, while you were having, you know, reading and everything else. I've been doing some thinking on your behalf and I've thought this through. Now I'm impressed. Dean: I wonder how far we are away from that. Dan: I mean infinity away, uh-huh right, because that's not what it does. That's what we do. Yeah, yeah. Where do you think the desire comes from? Where do you think the desire because I see it almost as a desire is that we're completely replaceable? Where do you think that desire comes from? Dean: The desire for that people have. I think if you go down to the that technology can completely replace me. Dan: I mean, it seems to me to be an odd aspiration. Dean: I wonder what the I heard. I saw somebody let me see if I get the words right saying that I don't want to. I don't want AI to create art and writing so that I can do the dishes. I want AI to do the dishes and cook so that I can create art and music. Which is so yeah, I mean, when you look at the fundamental things like why does anybody do anything? What drives desire? I think, if you go back to the core thing, like the life that we live right now is so far removed from the life of ancestors. You know, in terms of the daily, you know, if you just look at what even going to Maslow's needs right of the if everybody we want to have a nice house, we want to have a car to drive around in, we want to have food, meals that are plentiful and delicious, and money to do the things that we want to do, but I think that most people would be content with those things. I think it's a very rarefied exception of people that are ambitious beyond their comfort requirements. Like you look at, why does somebody who you know you look at those things that once somebody reaches economic freedom kind of thing or whatever, it's very it's not uncommon that the people who don't need to continue doing stuff continue to do stuff. You know that can, like you're baked in ambition and I think score right if you look at the things that you're beyond, you don't need that at 80. Dan: I like being fully occupied with meaningful work. Dean: Right. Dan: In other words, I like working, I really do like working. Yeah, and there's no difference between the amount of time working at age. I am 80, almost 81. Dean: Yeah. Dan: At age. I am 80, almost 81. And there's no difference between the amount of hours. If you measure me by a day a week, there's no difference in the number of hours that I'm working which qualifies under work. You know it's a focus day kind of work. There's no difference now than when I was 50. How I'm going about it is very different. What I'm surrounded by in terms of other capabilities, other people's capabilities, is very different. I'm surrounded with it by. Technology is very different, okay, but it's still the same. I have sort of a measure of quality. You know that the work is. I like doing the work I'm good at. The work is meaningful. I like doing the work I'm good at. The work is meaningful, I find the work energizing, I find the work rewarding stays exactly the same and that's what I'm always. So when ai comes along, I said does it affect the amount of meaningful work that I do? And so far it hasn't changed anything and it's actually increased it. It's like I would say it. Actually I find and I can just measure it in projects that I'll start and continue work through until the project is completed. It's gone up considerably since I've had perplexity yeah, oh, that's interesting. Dean: So what would you say, like, what are the top few ways that you like? Integrate perplexity to an advantage like that for you, then? Because? Dan: you're basically, you're an observer of what you know and you're thinking about your thinking that hiring with Jeff Madoff and Jeff is working on the part of the book that involves interviews with people in show business and people who really understand the concept of casting rather than hiring, and the people who've built their businesses on a theater approach. So Jeff's doing that and we have our team supporting him. They're setting up the interviews, we're recording the interviews and we're putting them into print form for him. But the interesting thing about it is that I'm just working on the tool part of the book, the four-by-four casting tool, which is actually going to be five chapters. It's actually five chapters of the book Because the entire psychology of having people create their own roles inside your company is the essence of what casting, not hiring, really means is that you're not giving people job descriptions. You're what a completed project looks like, what a completed process looks like and everything else, but how they go about it they create for themselves. They actually create it. So they're not automatons. We're not creating robots here. We're creating people and we want them to be alert, curious, responsive and resourceful. What does? that mean we want things to happen faster, easier, bigger and better. What does that mean? We want them to create projects with a sense of commitment, courage and capability and confidence. So we're laying this out, so it's like a human being's brain manual, basically, as we're putting together that when you're involved in teamwork, what it looks like like. So what I'll do is I'll write a paragraph on my own time, just on word. I write in maybe a hundred word paragraph and what's going to be the context of this, and then I'll immediately go to perplexity and I said now I want you to take the this hundred word paragraph and I want you to come. I want you to divide it into three 50 word paragraphs and stressing these, and have one distinct idea for each paragraph. But I want the meaning of the three paragraphs to integrate with each other and reinforce each other. But there's a distinctly new thought. So I just give it all directions, I press the button and out it comes. So I said okay now looking at the essence of each of the three paragraphs, I'd like you to give each one of them a really great punchy subhead thing. I got my subheads, but I'm really engaged with, I'm sort of in real teamwork. I'm teamwork with this other intelligence and that feels yeah, really terrific, that feels really terrific. Dean: That feels really terrific, that's great. So you're using it to, you're the. You know I heard somebody talk about that the 10, 80, 10 situation where you're the beginning 10% of something, then let it create, expand that, create the 80%, and then you're the final 10 on weaving, yeah, together and except I would have about five, ten, eighty tens for the complete right. Dan: You know, yeah, and, like in perplexity, you just have the ask me line. I'll go through five or six of those and right in the course of producing what I you know, and I end up totally. I'll probably end up with about 200 words and you know it's broken down and some of them are bullet points and some of them are main paragraphs and everything, but I enjoy that. And then at the end I say now rewrite all of this in the concise, factual, axiomatic style of strategic coach Dan Sullivan. Use a maximum of Anglo-Saxon words, a maximum of active passive verbs, everything in the second person singular. You voice Helvetica and then Helvetica, please, Helvetica new standard Helvetica. Dean: New standard Exactly yes so funny, right, yeah I love that. Dan: But here's the thing, the whole question, I think, in all human experience, when you experience something new, how long is it that before amazing becomes normal and expected? Dean: yeah, yeah, and not long, no, not long. Once we get the hang of something, I think what you've had three expectations that's a good way to think about it. Actually, the way you're using it is very that's very useful yeah, and I don't keep my prompts either. Dan: I don't keep my prompts because then I'm becoming a bit of an automaton, right? So every time I start I go through the prompt, you know. And you know, I kind of have it in my head what the prompts are, but I want to see each time. Maybe I'll make a change this time and I don't want to cut myself out from the change, right, yeah, but my sense is that you went back and you could actually observe yourself learning the alphabet, you know first grade for me or learning the numbering system first grade for me. I bet the Dan who's going through this AI experience at 80 isn't much different from the. Dan at six years old, going through learning how to read and write and doing arithmetic. I bet I'm following pretty much the same pattern and that's a capability, that's a yeah, that is a really capability. Dean: Isn't that funny. It's like I remember I still remember like vividly being in kindergarten in january of 1972 and learning that something happened over the Christmas break there that we switched to, we had a new year and now it's not 1971, it's 1972. I remember just. I'm just. It's so funny how that made such an impression on me that now I knew something new. You know this is. Dan: I don't, you know how you just have total unawareness of something. Dean: And then all of a sudden now I know it's 1972, I know my place in time here yeah, yeah, I used to, I, when I was coaching. Dan: You know the first year of strategic coach program and I would talk about how long things took to get a result. You know. Dean: Yeah. Dan: So I said you know you know. I said the big difference that you're going to find being a coach is that you're essentially you're going from a time and effort economy to get a result just getting a result and shortening the amount of time it takes you to get a result. I said that's the big change that's going to take in the program. And I said, for example, I've noticed because I had a lot of really top life insurance agents in the program in the 1970s and 1980s insurance agents in the program in the 1970s and 1980s and they would talk about the big cases. You know the big cases, you know where they would get paid in those days. They get paid $100,000 for life insurance policy and they say you know those big cases, they can take two or three years. You know, take two or three years before them. And I said, actually, I said they were instantaneous. Actually, you got the sale instantaneously. And they said well, what do you mean? No, I put two. No, I said it took two or three years not getting Getting the case was actually instantaneous. It's just that you spend a lot of time not getting the case. What? if you just eliminated the amount of time not getting the case. What if you just eliminated the amount of time not getting the case and just got the case? Then the results would be instantaneous. I think that's really what we're after. Dean: Yes, I agree. I was just talking with somebody about that today. I didn't use those words, but the way you describe it is. You know that people spend a long time talking about realtors in specific. You know that they're getting the listing happens right away, but they do spend a lot of time not getting the listing here. Dan: Yeah, yeah, I remember. First I think it was certainly in the first five years I had a guy from Alberta who was apparently the top residential real estate. You know he was the top agent for the year. He had 240 sales in one year. And people say how does he do that? You can't do that number of presentations in a year, you just can't do that. I said, well, he doesn't do any presentations, he's got trained actors who do presentations. Right, he said a lot of actors spend 90% of their career unemployed. They've got to be waiters or they've got to do this and that. And he just found really great presenters who put on a great theatrical performance and they would do five or six of five or six of them a day, and he had a limousine driver. He had a limousine service that picked them up he would even have the limousine pick up the people to come for the presentation and they said yeah, but look at the cost. I said what cost? what cost indeed, but there you find the divide line between a mediocre person is the cost. He didn't think it was the cost at all. It was just an investment in him not doing presentations. And then he had an accountant who did all the you know he had a trained accountant who did all the. You know the paperwork. Dean: Yes, yeah, I think that's amazing Duplicating. Somebody has the capability to do a presentation, an actor. They're armed with the right script. They have the ability now to further somebody's goal. I meant to mention Dan. You've got a big day in Ohio this weekend. You got Shadur Sanders, went to the Browns in the NFL draft. Dan: I think they've made some bad moves, but I think that one's going to turn out to be one of their good ones. Dean: Yeah, I think so too. Dan: Especially for the coach he's getting. If you're a pocket quarterback, you do Stefanski, you know. I mean, yeah, he's a good coach. Dean: I forget whether are you a Browns or Bengals. Bengals. Cincinnati they're part of the Confederacy. Dan: They're part of the Confederacy, you know we don't yeah. They're a little bit too south. You know Cleveland. Actually, the first game I ever saw was with Jim Brown breaking the rushing record. His rookie year he broke one game rushing record. That was the first year. Dean: I ever saw a game. Dan: Yeah and yeah, yeah. It's in the blood, can't get rid of it. You know everything. Dean: Yeah, but anyway, but I rid of it, you know everything. Dan: Yeah, but anyway. But I think this is. You know we're zeroing in on something neat here. It's not getting anything you want. It's the result you want. How long does it take you to get it? I think that's really the issue. Dean: Yeah, yeah and people are vastly different in terms of the results that they were but I think that there's a difference too, that you mentioned that there's a lot of room for the gap, and I think there's a big gap between people's desires and what they're able to actually achieve. You know that I think people would love to have six-pack abs if they didn't have to go through the work of getting them. You know if there's a bypass to that, if you could just have somebody else do the sit-ups and you get the six-pack. That's what I think that AI and I mean the new, that amplified kind of capability multiplier is, but it requires vision to attach to it. It's almost like the software, yeah. Dan: Yeah, Meaning, making meaning, actually creating meaning. One of my quarterly books was you Are Not a Computer you know where. I just argue against the case that the human brain is just an information processor and therefore machines that can process information faster than human beings, then they're smarter. Dean: And. Dan: I said, if human beings were information processors. Actually I don't think we're very good information processors from the standpoint of accuracy and efficiency. I think we're terrible. Actually, I think we're terrible. We want to change things like repeat this sentence. It's got 10 words in it. We get about two words, seven or eight. We said yeah, I think I'm gonna go change one of the words right, you know very easy see what happens here, and I think what we're looking for is new, interesting combinations of experiences. I think we really like that. I think we like putting things together in a new way that gives us a little, gives us a little jolt of dopamine. Dean: I think that's true. That's like music, you know. It's like every. All the notes have already been created, but yet we still make new songs, some combination of the same eight notes in an octave, you know, yeah I think it would be. Dan: Uh, what was that song for that celine dion's name from the titanic? You know they were. The two lovers were in front of the boat and then yes, the wind blowing them in there. Seeing the sun interesting song the first time you heard it. But you're in a cell by yourself and there it plays every three minutes, 24 hours a day. You'd hang yourself. Dean: Absolutely yeah. Dan: That's the truth. Yeah, what'd you get? What's a pickup from the day. Dean: I like your approach of you know, of using the way you're using perplexity. I think that's a big planting for me to think about over the next week. Here is this using capabilities to create an ability bypass for people that they don't need to have the ability to get the result that they want. You know, because that's kind of the thing, even though people they would have the capability to create a result but they don't have an ability, comes in many different ways. You know, I think that the technical know-how, the creative ability, the executive function, the discipline, the patience, all those things are application things and if we can bypass all of that, I the that kind of blends with this idea of results but it's being in the process of constantly being in the action and the activity of making something faster and easier. Dan: I don't think. I think it's the activity of making things easier and faster, and bigger and better. I think that's what we love. We love that experience of doing that. And once we've done it once, we're not too interested in doing it the next time. Dean: We're looking for something else to do it with, I think who, not how, fits in that way right of doing you see what, you see what you want, and not having that awareness, even your, you know your checklist of can I get this without doing anything? Yeah, you know, or what's the least that I mean and the answer is never. Dan: No, right, almost never. Dean: Never, yes, right. Dan: Yeah, what happens is I identify just the one thing I have to do. I just have to do this one thing. Then the next question is what's the least I can do to get it? And I say this one thing Can I get it faster or easier? Okay, and then the third thing is then who's somebody else who can do that faster, easier thing for you? And then you're on to the next thing. But I think it's a continual activity. It isn't. It's never a being there you know, because then you're in the gap that's right yeah, yeah, anyway, always delightful dan another, uh, one hour of sunday morning well spent. Dean: Yeah, absolutely that's exactly right, always enjoyable. Are we on next week? Dan: yes, I believe yes, we are perfect, all right, okay here, okay, thank you thanks dan bye okay, bye.

Show Summary: In today's episode of Grow My Accounting Practice, we're joined by business coach and Profit First Master, Marcus Kroek, for a powerful conversation around leadership, client relationships, and personal growth. Marcus introduces the concept of "Start with 'I'", a framework inspired by Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, focused on employee engagement and self-awareness in leadership. This episode dives into how truly effective teams begin with leaders who understand and meet their own foundational needs before inspiring others—tying in beautifully with themes from the book All In and our previous discussion with Danielle Mulvey. We also explore how accountants and bookkeepers can boost their sales success and client value by asking deeper, more insightful questions—getting to the problem behind the problem. This approach not only helps attract better-fit clients but also transforms existing relationships by positioning you as a trusted advisor rather than just a service provider. If you're looking to deepen your impact as a business owner or advisor, this episode is packed with strategies to start from within and grow outward.   Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/MarcusKroekCoaching LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcuskroek/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/marcuskroek/   Corporate Partner:Pumpkin Plan - https://pumpkinplanyourbiz.com/   Profit First App Version 2.0 is here!  More Education.

Curiosity isn't just a nice-to-have trait—it's a necessary fuel for leadership, growth, and long-term success. When approached with depth and intentionality, curiosity becomes the key to evolving our thinking, building sharper perspectives, and navigating complexity more effectively. In this episode, I break down the difference between general curiosity—the kind that gives us fleeting facts—and epistemic curiosity, the drive to truly understand. It's not about connecting random dots. It's about forming meaningful constellations that spark real insight and wisdom.When we lead with curiosity, we don't just gather knowledge—we satisfy core human needs. From creating a sense of psychological safety to forging stronger relationships and building confidence through mastery, curiosity shows up at every level of our growth journey. Drawing on Maslow's hierarchy, I explore how leaning into deep learning contributes to both personal fulfillment and professional momentum. It turns out, curiosity doesn't just help us grow—it actually makes us happier by triggering the parts of our brain tied to reward and motivation.But there's a catch: technology is making it too easy to shortcut the process. Tools like Google and AI are powerful—but if we're not careful, they nudge us toward convenience instead of clarity. In this solo episode, I challenge us as leaders to use technology as a launchpad for deeper thinking, not as a replacement for it. The path forward? Start questioning more, summarize insights in your own words, and make curiosity a daily practice. That's how we grow—not just smarter, but wiser.

In this week's episode of Only Human, Dr. Kern covers a couple of stories involving basic OSHA required safety precautions that were ignored in three incidents. The first involves a worker who fatally fell from a scaffold in Madison, WI, the second a hazardous chemical spill at a plant in Toledo, OH, and the last a grain elevator explosion in Nebraska. He also covers worker issues involving companies disguising the efforts of exploited call center workers in the Philippines as “AI” and arguments on both sides of the issue of Universal Basic Income (UBI) as a potential solution to raise people above the “basic survival” level of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to improve personal performance, self-actualization, and better contribute to society. Finally, he muses on the necessity of modern “technology detox” retreats versus building better daily habits which include breaks from technology to improve our focus and mental health.

The discussion explores authenticity as one of the premier virtues of modernity, comparing it with autonomy, and tracing its roots through romanticism and existentialism, notably discussing Heidgegger and Kierkegaard. Greg introduces psychological perspectives and client-centered therapy influenced by Carl Rogers, while Matthew shares insights from his empirical research on dispositional authenticity carried out at the University of Chattanooga. The trio also touch on the tensions between self-identification and participation, self-alienation, cognitive fluency, and the societal quest for authenticity, proposing a nuanced and dynamic understanding of the true self. Gregg R. Henriques is an American psychologist. He is a professor for the Combined-Integrated Doctoral Program at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia, US. Matthew Schaublin is a master's candidate in psychology at the University of Chattanooga, with a four-year research focus on authenticity. His work blends empirical psychology with philosophical and classical inquiry, investigating how dispositional authenticity is expressed and experienced. —- Notes:  0:00 Introduction to the Lectern 0:45 Exploring the Concept of Authenticity 3:30 Greg's Perspective on Authenticity 5:00 Matthew's Research on Dispositional Authenticity 9:00 Theoretical Foundations of Authenticity 12:30 Philosophical and Clinical Perspectives 24:30 Relational and Psychological Dimensions 36:30 The Evolution of Self-Definition in Modernity 38:00 The Greek Roots of Authenticity 39:30 Modeling Authenticity and Personality 43:15 Rationalization and Authenticity 44:45 Tensions in Authenticity: Identification vs. Participation 49:00 The SAFE Model of Authenticity 55:00 Empirical Studies on Authenticity and Agency 1:06:30 Key Takeaways and Future Directions —-- Connect with a community dedicated to self-discovery and purpose, and gain deeper insights by joining our Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/johnvervaeke   The Vervaeke Foundation is committed to advancing the scientific pursuit of wisdom and creating a significant impact on the world.

PLANUL PENTRU 2025 - CRISTIAN ONETIU #IGDLCC[00:00:00] George Buhnici: Elon Musk. Eu zic Elon Musk, tu spui?[00:00:02] Cristian Onetiu: Da eu zic Peter Thiel. Există cineva [00:00:05]mai șmecher decât Elon Musk acolo? Peter Thiel, clar. De ce? a fost? Păi întotdeauna a fost și [00:00:10] angajatorul lui principal și finanțatorul lui principal. Cum? După ce am trăit suficient de mulți ani în pace, ne [00:00:15]imaginăm că dacă vine un lider mesianic ăla nu va fi dictator.[00:00:18] Așa au zis și în [00:00:20] 40-i când au venit Partidul Muncitoresc și care a zis că le dă pământ oamenilor și [00:00:25] le-a dat pământ după care le-a luat. America tinde să aibă un comportament la [00:00:30] fel ca al rușilor și ca al chinezilor, adică semnează acte dar nu se tinde ele. Și atunci ne [00:00:35]decidem dacă e imigrant sau nu în America sau în Rusia?[00:00:37] Și atunci, acum când vedem că toți dau în [00:00:40] Europa... Cred că fiecare român trebuie să-și ia o decizie identitară. Sunt european sau [00:00:45] sunt rus sau sunt ce-o fi. Te îngrozești să mai ieși și spui, haideți la vot. [00:00:50] Că nu știi cine vine. De fapt tu nu știi ce-i acolo.[00:00:53] George Buhnici: Ăștia care se uită la noi trebuie să meargă la [00:00:55] vot.[00:00:55] Cristian Onetiu: Da, ăștia da. Dacă acest maga, dacă [00:01:00]suveranismul american reușește, crezi că următorul parlament de la noi va fi suveranist? [00:01:05] Dacă o face grozavă da. Dar mă îndoiesc că pot să o facă.[00:01:08] George Buhnici: Martie 2025, Cristian [00:01:10] Nețiu a spus așa că Trump nu o să reușească.[00:01:12] Cristian Onetiu: Singurul lucru pe care văd să-l reușească este să [00:01:15] facă o dinastie din familia lui.[00:01:17] George Buhnici: Nu m-ai deprimat niciodată așa de mult [00:01:20]astăzi. Jur.[00:01:21] Cristian Onetiu: Da, dar nu avem istoric baza discuției. [00:01:25][00:01:25] George Buhnici: Salutare tuturor și bine v-am regăsit la ICDLCC, informații gratis despre lucruri care costă, cu Cristian [00:01:30] Nețiu, cu care nu ne-am văzut nici la sfârșitul lui 2024, nici la începutul lui 2025, dintr-un motiv foarte [00:01:35] simplu.[00:01:36] E atât de multă incertitudine încât mi-a fost teamă să [00:01:40] mă duc la oracol și să frec globul de cristal pentru că nu știu ce ai fi putut să-mi spui [00:01:45] până acum, sincer. Pare că suntem așa într-un hiatus, suntem cumva în [00:01:50] purgatoriu. Așteptăm să vină sfârșitul luna mai să scăpăm o dată de politică și să ne reapucăm poate de [00:01:55] treabă.[00:01:55] Așa că ne revedem astăzi să vedem ce facem cu banii în 2025, dacă [00:02:00] ne luăm un job, dacă ne mai facem business sau nu, pentru că din câte aud, românii sunt [00:02:05] atât de neîncrezători încât nu-și mai au casă, stau în chirii, țin de job-urile pe care le-au, [00:02:10] concedierii se fac, dar se fac pe șustache, nu prea se vorbește.[00:02:13] Către America nu prea [00:02:15] mai poți să fugi că ne amenință ăștia de la ambasadă că să nu te duci pe nașpa. Avea mai multe [00:02:20]provocări Mai multe provocări decât oportunități În 2025? Sau vezi [00:02:25]ceva care chiar merită să te arunci și să te [00:02:30] duci, gata, mă duc și fac bani acum?[00:02:32] Cristian Onetiu: Am venit pregătit, am pregătit vreo 10 [00:02:35]tipuri de modele de business pe care poți să le faci exact în [00:02:40] situațiile astea foarte tricky, așa cum le [00:02:45] descriai tu.[00:02:47] Dar ca să începem așa pe [00:02:50] ce ai spus tu mai devreme, cuvântul ăsta așteptăm. Este cel mai [00:02:55] rău în perioada asta. Toată lumea așteaptă. Nu toată lumea [00:03:00] Tu ai stat de pămană o să ne povestești ce ai făcut. Să împărțim pe leere populația, că [00:03:05] nici America nu este America lui Trump, nici România nu este România lui [00:03:10] Iohannis, așa cum și audiența ta este o audiență [00:03:15] dintr-o categorie care are niște particularități.[00:03:18] Și cred că ei au [00:03:20] puterea și să miște, au și puterea de a vedea oportunități, au și puterea de a [00:03:25] își găsi informațiile corecte pentru a găsi mai aproape a fi mai [00:03:30] aproape de adevăr. Și cred că ei sunt și schimbarea. [00:03:35] Pentru că dacă vorbim despre marea masă a României, atunci n-ar rău să discutăm [00:03:40] despre nimic rațional sau oportunistic în [00:03:45] sensul bun.[00:03:46] Însă noi suntem aici să vorbim unei Categorii [00:03:50] de oameni ușor diferiți și nu zic asta cu[00:03:53] superioritate, ci[00:03:54] [00:03:55] cu segmentare. Se[00:03:57] George Buhnici: vede în analitice, oricât de mult mi-ar plăcea mie să [00:04:00] fiu urmărit de mai mulți oameni, genul de discuții pe care le avem aici și genul de [00:04:05] invitați selectează. Da. Și atunci oamenii care vor un pic de divertisment sunt în altă parte.[00:04:09] [00:04:10] Clar. Și sunt mult mai mulți. Și sunt mult mai mulți. Deci vorbim un pic de [00:04:15] oportunitate, suntem un pic oportuniști încercăm să facem mai mult decât să stăm să săpice, [00:04:20] parămălăiață sau să mergem nu știu, la opt ore. Adică chiar dacă ești într-un job [00:04:25] de opt ore, sunt convins că oamenii care se uită caută și altceva pe lângă mai au o idee, se [00:04:30] mai uită și la alte lucruri.[00:04:31] Asta e un cuvânt bun. A căuta față[00:04:33] Cristian Onetiu: de a aștepta, deja e o mare diferență. [00:04:35]Dacă oamenii încep să caute, știi că e și vorba aia istorică. Caută [00:04:40] și vei găsi, bate și ți se va deschide. Primul lucru pe care trebuie să-l faci pe Google, [00:04:45] primul lucru pe care trebuie să-l faci pe un CGPT, trebuie să cauți.[00:04:49] Diferența [00:04:50] între oamenii care caută și oamenii care așteaptă să-i se livreze o informație de-a gata [00:04:55] și pe care să o înghită și pe care să o accelereze în ei și să o sedimenteze și apoi [00:05:00] să mai intre și în algoritmul social media în care se spună a, s-a uitat tot [00:05:05] 15 secunde în loc de 3, deci îi place treaba asta, să-i dă mai mult, să înghită mai mult.[00:05:10][00:05:10] Asta e o diferență foarte mare între oamenii. Adică cei care așteaptă sunt unii. [00:05:15] Mai e o categorie mai joasă decât cei care așteaptă. E categoria care [00:05:20] nu doar așteaptă să vadă ce se întâmplă, ci așteaptă salvatorul. Și [00:05:25] America, cu MAGA și Trump a speculat chestia asta, se vede și în [00:05:30] Europa, se vede peste tot.[00:05:31] Rusia, China, practică deja modelul ăsta [00:05:35] Emiratele Arabe la fel au un model în care stăpânirea unui individ pentru [00:05:40] că ce se întâmplă acum este trecerea la încrederea sau așteptarea [00:05:45] unui sistem mesianic care să rezolve lucrurile cum era democrația către un [00:05:50]individ mesianic care să rezolve. Și toată atenția și toată puterea și [00:05:55]tot leverage-ul politic și Și puterea executivă să se ducă la un singur om, [00:06:00] care el este exponentul salvării acelui neam.[00:06:04] Asta e [00:06:05] marea problemă pe care îi paște și pe americanii.[00:06:07] George Buhnici: Este deja susținută [00:06:10] ideea de care spui tu, de studii care arată că mai ales noua generație își [00:06:15] dorește un astfel de lider mesianic și deja inclusiv Marea Britanie [00:06:20] tinerii spuneau că ei ar fi de acord să preia puterea cineva cu o autoritate eventual militară [00:06:25]și să facă ordine.[00:06:26] Adică după ce am trăit suficient de mulți ani în pace [00:06:30] ne imaginăm că dacă vine un lider mesianic ăla nu va fi dictator, ăla nu va face [00:06:35] așa Așa au zis și în[00:06:36] Cristian Onetiu: 40 când au venit Partidul Muncitoresc și care a [00:06:40] zis că le dă pământ oamenilor și le-a dat pământ după care le-a luat. Deci n-a fost decât câțiva [00:06:45] ani de zile în care s-au ținut de promisiune după care au schimbat tot, au luat înapoi tot și s-a transformat în [00:06:50] ceea ce știm 40 ceva de ani de comunism.[00:06:52] Nu există nicio [00:06:55] referință în istorie în care cineva care a acumulat toată puterea s-o fi gestionat [00:07:00] în favoarea oamenilor sau fără să... Cineva care n-a schimbat [00:07:05] regulile jocului fundamental după aceea și n-a oprimat populația Uite acum la[00:07:09] George Buhnici: Erdogan [00:07:10] zilele astea. Și-a arestat principalul oponent și vrea să schimbe din nou [00:07:15] legea ca să poate să mai candideze încă un mandat Săptâna trecută a fost o [00:07:20] știre pe exemplu că liderul curzilor din închisoare l-a spus curzilor să lase armele, că s-au [00:07:25] înțeles, s-a înțeles cu Erdogan ca să-l poată să aibă destule voturi ca să-și poată extinde mandatul și ăla.[00:07:30][00:07:30] L-ai pe Victor Orban lângă noi. Am fost zilele trecute în [00:07:35]nordul și nord-vestul Transilvaniei Bihor, [00:07:40] Satu Mare, Baia Mare, toți oamenii aia spun, zice, băi, la noi e bine. Când treci în Ungaria, ai [00:07:45]impresia că te-ai întors deja 10, 15 20 de ani. Băi ăsta-i mandatul lui Orban. [00:07:50] Și la fel în toate țările în care ai lideri în ăștia lider maxim.[00:07:54] [00:07:55] Întrebarea este, ce se întâmplă cu America? De ce fac americanii chestia asta? Ce crezi că o fac? Pentru că [00:08:00] oricine[00:08:00] Cristian Onetiu: vrea să fie liderul maxim. Iar după cum ne uităm la America acum, [00:08:05] care, again, nu este America lui Trump, este America câștigată de MAGA, care și [00:08:10] are probleme în interior, că n-a fost doar Trump acolo a fost MAGA, ăștia lucrează de 8 ani de zile pe [00:08:15]ideologia asta.[00:08:17] Mai sunt și... Liderii [00:08:20] companiilor mari de tehnologie care au venit și ei pe final și au zis veniți și noi cu [00:08:25] modul nostru de a conduce tehnologic. Mai era și [00:08:30] Trump care vrea să fie în față și să-și ia revanșa pentru ceilalți. Este și un mix. Ei au câștigat împreună fără [00:08:35]să aibă aceeași doctrină însă având aceleași interese.[00:08:38] Miliardari[00:08:39] George Buhnici: cu[00:08:39] Cristian Onetiu: [00:08:40] rednecks. N-ai mai văzut vreodată așa? Ce înseamnă asta? Și ei recunosc că este un [00:08:45] amestec total heterogen. Pentru că au avut aceeași miză. Și oamenii [00:08:50] sau prădătorii se adună pentru miză, dar după aceea se și ceartă între ei. Eu mă aștept să [00:08:55] fie destul de dură despărțirea dintre aceste trei categorii mari, care [00:09:00] unii sunt ideologi MAGA Originals, Trump care este [00:09:05] doar power-oriented și marile companii tehnologice care [00:09:10] au cu tot o altă perspectivă și care [00:09:15] prin Peter Thiel și prin Elon Musk și ceilalți vor să imprime o altă direcție.[00:09:19] Deci oricum [00:09:20] n-au o viziune comună dar au avut un obiectiv comun, să câștige puterea. Exact. S-a [00:09:25] întâmplat chestia asta, dar încă o dată asta nu e America toată. Este o parte [00:09:30] care a fost trasă de aceste trei diferite zone de [00:09:35] influență care au dus la rezultatul ăsta.[00:09:40][00:09:41] Se înțeleg între ei și urmașii lui Trump transformă America [00:09:45] într-o dinastie de 100 de ani, așa [00:09:50] cum încep să vorbească de pace și prosperitate, adică stați liniștiți la pământ că [00:09:55] noi conducem, înseamnă că liderul lumii libere [00:10:00] a murit Pentru că noi până acum ne uităm la America întotdeauna ca [00:10:05] liderul lumii libere.[00:10:06] Și înseamnă că Europa rămâne ultima zonă [00:10:10] discutabilă greoaie, ultra-reglementată [00:10:15] coruptă în anumite zone, care încă mai păstrează principiile democrației liberale. [00:10:20] Și cred că asta este miza noastră între această [00:10:25] politică globală dar multipolară de putere. [00:10:30] Adică China vede dintr-o perspectivă, Rusia vede dintr-o perspectivă.[00:10:33] Ăștia au [00:10:35] povestea lor. Putin o spune de mult, de 10 ani.[00:10:40] [00:10:45][00:10:49] Ne [00:10:50] orientăm către țara noastră să o conducem ca lumea și apoi să devenim liderii [00:10:55] globali, tehnologici și militari ca să putem să redevenim prin forță liderul [00:11:00] planetei. Chinezii mai spun din când în când niște lucruri, dar aici văd de treaba lor liniștit și [00:11:05] între timp cresc economic și financiar de rup și nu poți să-i ignori.[00:11:09] [00:11:10] Deci Iranul începe și el să găsească loc și oportunități și [00:11:15] Europa va fi hărțuită de toți, pentru că atunci când rămâi ultimul [00:11:20] standard al unei democrații fragile, toți vor da în tine. Mai [00:11:25]ales că au interes, adică Europa mai are încă multe colonii, adică mai au ce fura de [00:11:30] acolo. Fiecare din ăștia patru pe care i-am zis așteaptă de mult să mai ia niște [00:11:35] teritorii pe care ele aveau acolo și încă țin de un stat european.[00:11:38] Deci au Și [00:11:40] apropo cum am început? E ca la o crimă, știi Care e motivul Dar găsești motivul, [00:11:45] te apropii mai mult de adevăr. Și motivul e? Motivul este că fiecare vrea să devină o [00:11:50] super putere în felul ei Și Europa este o [00:11:55] doamnă bătrână obosită pe care[00:11:57] George Buhnici: toți... Bă, da, e, dar chiar e Europa [00:12:00]pentru că se leagă de discuția de la care am început, că nu ne-am dus aici.[00:12:04] Hai nu [00:12:05] anțăm bătrânii. Zicem că și noi suntem pasivi da? Da. Și România este Europa. Ne place sau nu să [00:12:10] acceptăm suntem de acum și noi de acolo. Și atunci e clar că jucăm și noi în filmul ăsta [00:12:15] în care părăm lenți pasivi prea puțin proactivi. Bă, dar stai [00:12:20] să-ți[00:12:20] Cristian Onetiu: spun că dacă reinterpretăm puțin treaba asta asta, o să ne dăm seama că a fi o doamnă [00:12:25] bătrână cu multă istorie și cu multe cicatrici astăzi reprezintă un mare [00:12:30] beneficiu.[00:12:31] Pentru că noi avem o mare imunitate la o grămadă de lucruri. Americanii n-au avut [00:12:35] război americanii n-au avut comunism, n-au avut titratură Noi avem o [00:12:40] mare imunitate în tot procesul ăsta, pentru că noi am fost acolo de curând Noi înseamnă asta. Noi știm. Ăia nu [00:12:45]știu. Generațiile lor nu se așteaptă Nici măcar nu poate să-și [00:12:50]imagineze ce poate să însemne un dictator.[00:12:52] Ei nu știu așa ceva, ei au învățat în niște [00:12:55] cărți, au citit, dar nu a fost niciodată despre ei. departe se întâmplă în alte țări, în alte [00:13:00]părți pe planetă. Niciodată niciodată. ce Nu la noi. Deci noi avem imunitate. Faptul că e o [00:13:05] doamnă bătrână e în sensul bun, pentru că bătrân înseamnă [00:13:10] și înțelept. Înseamnă că nu te prostesc unii atât de repede și faptul că avem atât multe [00:13:15] culori, țările astea care au specificul lor e și mai multă [00:13:20] imunitate Adică avem anticorpi [00:13:25] naționali specifici la anumite vrăjeli, pe care dacă le simțim în [00:13:30] Franța, noi le semnalăm din România.[00:13:31] Când alții le găsesc în România, le semnalază de [00:13:35] acolo. Avem o multitudine de anticorpi. Așa că o doamnă [00:13:40] bătrână și birocratică în această etapă n-am crezut că o spun [00:13:45] vreodată acum 10 ani de zile nu credeam, nici acum 5 ani de zile nu credeam că o să spun, că [00:13:50] prefer o doamnă înțeleaptă sau un domn înțelept cu anticorpi și cu [00:13:55] înțelepciune și cu istorie care să poată să ia decizii liniștite fără să fie [00:14:00] abrupte.[00:14:00] Aș fi crezut întotdeauna că a fi abrupt și a [00:14:05] schimba totul peste noapte Este singura soluție Când mă uit acum [00:14:10] către ce duce o schimbare abruptă, foarte mult mi-am nuanțat [00:14:15] perspectiva în ultima[00:14:16] George Buhnici: perioadă. Deci dacă am învățat ceva în ultimii ani, asta e. Apropo de [00:14:20] varietate. Am fost anul trecut prin Germania și știi că așa, stai pădurile într-o veselie.[00:14:25][00:14:25] Știi de ce nu? Că au insecte asta, au gândac care le intră pe [00:14:30] sub scoarță, intră în trunchi și începe să hrănească din seva [00:14:35] copacului. Și până ajunse să-ți seama e prea târziu și nu există tratament. [00:14:40] Și și-au dat seama de o chestie nemții că de fapt nu-i de vină gândacul, ci ei au fost de vină, [00:14:45] pentru că au plantat păduri numai de brad, fără să facă suficiente varietate.[00:14:50][00:14:50] Cristian Onetiu: Asta e frumusețea Europei diversitatea asta și [00:14:55] faptul că dacă începem să comunicăm și dacă începem să lucrăm ca o Europa și cred că asta e cea mai mare [00:15:00] oportunitate de până acum ca Europa să opereze ca Europa.[00:15:03] George Buhnici: Cea[00:15:03] Cristian Onetiu: mai mare de până acum. Dar [00:15:05] ce[00:15:05] George Buhnici: ar putea să fie Europa asta? Că noi ne agățăm de ideea asta de democrație, [00:15:10] dar știm că fără capitalism nu suntem un jucător suficient,[00:15:14] Cristian Onetiu: [00:15:15] suficient de competitiv.[00:15:16] Da, suntem încă cei mai sărași de la masă. [00:15:20] Deci e clar că avem de adăugat valoare în România ca să putem să ne creștem [00:15:25]puterea valoarea adăugată în Europa, contribuția pe care o aducem dar faptul [00:15:30] că noi putem învăța de lângă ei și putem să stăm la masă cu ei, să [00:15:35] ne spunem tot mai tare opinia, să ne șeruim aceștia [00:15:40]anticorpii ai noștri sau această înțelepciune și inteligență locală care s-ar putea să aibă [00:15:45] valoare și pentru ei, ăsta e deja un prim mare pas.[00:15:50][00:15:50] Suntem acolo și cred că ne agățăm de democrația [00:15:55] liberală pentru că știm cum a fost în istoria recentă altfel. [00:16:00] N-avem altă variantă adică orice am încercat, nu știm o altă variantă mai [00:16:05]meritocratică decât asta, că și meritocrația asta e foarte debatable. [00:16:10]Deci n-avem altă variantă decât să stăm împreună.[00:16:13] Și acum când vedem că [00:16:15] toți dau în Europa, cred că fiecare român trebuie să-și ia o decizie identitară. Sunt [00:16:20] european sau sunt rus sau sunt ce-o fi. Trebuie să iau o decizie la nivel mai [00:16:25] mare decât sunt din regiunea Banat, Muntenea sau nu știu care, sunt [00:16:30] în țara asta. În ce regiune mai mare joci? Pentru că singur nu mai poți să faci față.[00:16:35][00:16:35] Singur te păcălești toți. Trag de tine toți. [00:16:40][00:16:40] George Buhnici: Și atunci ne decidem dacă emigrăm sau nu în America sau în Rusia? În Dubai? Păi [00:16:45] te-ai renunțat la Dubai, nu? Da, am avut 3 ani de zile planificați am stat 2 ani și 8 [00:16:50] luni. Deci după aproape 3 ani de Dubai te-ai întors aici, nu [00:16:55] te-ai uitat nici spre America, deși este pentru business teoretic cel mai bun loc de pe planetă nu?[00:16:59] Cristian Onetiu: [00:17:00] Da.[00:17:01] George Buhnici: Și totuși e[00:17:01] Cristian Onetiu: aici. Pentru că acolo nu am certitudinea [00:17:05]siguranței personale și a familiei. Mi-e destul de... [00:17:10] Am fost de patru ori în America. De fiecare dată am trăit lucruri pe care nu le-am trăit niciunde [00:17:15] în lume. Apropo de violență, apropo de... [00:17:20] apropo de puterea organelor de ordine atât de brutale. [00:17:25] Mi-e greu să trăiesc acolo.[00:17:28] La fel cum mi greu să [00:17:30] trăiesc și într-o țară te-a grăsat poliția? Dar într-o formă de asta în care n-a [00:17:35] ajuns să mă pună culcat pe jos. Dar mi s-a tăiat orice [00:17:40] formă de când am intrat în țară când treci acolo și când îți dai seama că ai [00:17:45] călcat o linie și ăla vine și urlă la tine la 30 centimetri și [00:17:50] după aceea te împinge într-o zonă și după aceea te pune să ții [00:17:55] mâinile la spate că ești periculos că ai călcat pe o pe o dungă [00:18:00] galbenă și când ieși afară din parcare și când te duci cu mașina și [00:18:05] te oprește primul polițist cu un ton de parcă ai omorât pe cineva [00:18:10] fără să ai făcut nimic și fără să înțelegi care sunt drepturile și cum să gestionezi [00:18:15] relația respectivă e o altă lume, pentru noi europenii e o altă lume, cel puțin pentru [00:18:20] mine sigur că are și o grămadă de lucruri foarte mișto, dar vezi peste tot trebuie să-ți alegi pachetul, [00:18:25] apropo de pachet dacă te hotărăști să fii european trebuie să iei pachetul ăsta [00:18:30] Da, avem niște reglementări care sunt idiote, care ar trebui să le schimbăm, ar trebui să [00:18:35] revizităm anumite lucruri care opresc inovația, dar ar trebui să avem și noi [00:18:40] puterea noastră militară pentru că este ciudat.[00:18:42] Noi suntem 550 de [00:18:45] milioane de oameni care urlăm la 300 de milioane de oameni să ne apere de 150 [00:18:50] de milioane care nu pot să-i bată pe 30 de milioane sau 50 de milioane cât să-ți spune Acum le-ai prea frazat pe [00:18:55] Donald Tusk care a zis foarte bine. Așa e. Da, așa e. Așa e. Acum mai e [00:19:00] totuși o nuanță în toată chestia asta.[00:19:02] Când noi [00:19:05] ne ducem la ăștia pentru că au puterea militară nucleară pentru că ne-au prostit să nu o facem pe noastră [00:19:10] ca să ne apere de ăștia din dreapta care au un milion jumate de militari [00:19:15] și care nu se bat cu 50 de milioane ci se bat cu toată restul lumii care [00:19:20] le-au dat toate armele. Deci în toată discuția asta aveți aceeași [00:19:25] știre, aceeași poveste spusă din două perspective, o dată frumos, cealaltă pe [00:19:30] cifre.[00:19:30] Când unul are 70% din puterea nucleară și celălalt are un [00:19:35]milion jumate de infanterici de militari, păi nu-i de joacă. [00:19:40] Și noi nu avem nimic în toate chestiile astea. Avem un pic prin Franța, avem un pic prin... [00:19:45] Nu ai[00:19:45] George Buhnici: senzația asta că ne luptăm cu barbarii? [00:19:50]Pentru că noi în Europa am cam depășit faza asta cu războaie la graniță.[00:19:53] Da. [00:19:55] Adică nu ne mai împărțim. Am înțeles o chestie În Europa, noi am înțeles, toate [00:20:00] țările ca să intre în Europeană, au tratate în alea de bună vecinătate, nu mai am niciun fel de pretenții [00:20:05]teritoriale asupra nimănui. Da, da, noi încă mai credem în tratate. Asta a[00:20:07] Cristian Onetiu: fost problema mea Păi da[00:20:08] George Buhnici: în Europa[00:20:09] Cristian Onetiu: nu avem [00:20:10] războaie la graniță.[00:20:11] Problema mea în Emirate, ca să-ți doar așa o mică paranteză, a fost că eu am [00:20:15] crezut că sunt regulă din Europa. Am discutat cu [00:20:20]fonduri de investiții care au semnat binding term sheets pentru [00:20:25]investiții care s-au răzgândit fără niciun fel de motiv și fără să aibă niciun fel de [00:20:30] responsabilitate. Și noi am zis...[00:20:31] Așa ceva nu se poate, nu e normal, adică [00:20:35] voi ziceți că operați după regulile vestice, dar voi de fapt aveți regulile voastre pe care și nici [00:20:40] măcar nu dați nicio explicație, pur și simplu nu aveți chef. Sau mai rău ați intrat în business [00:20:45] și acum nu vreți să ieșiți dar n-ați pus contribuția voastră și când vine capital call-ul [00:20:50] voi ziceți că mai ne mai gândim.[00:20:51] Dar nu ieșiți din companie și începeți să cereți [00:20:55] beneficiile pe care compania asta le-ar avea. Deci America [00:21:00] tinde să aibă un comportament la fel ca al rușilor și ca al chinezilor, adică [00:21:05] semnează acte dar nu se ținde ele. Aduți aminte ce ușor a semnat Putin cu [00:21:10]Obama. Nu mai facem stai că nu mai... S-a dus și a intrat în...[00:21:14] a încălcat. [00:21:15] America a semnat cu anumite zone, se retrage. China a semnat o grămadă de [00:21:20] documente De ce înseamnă poluare, nu s-a ținut de ele. Marile puteri [00:21:25] nu joacă după bunul simț democratic, vestic, al Europei. Și [00:21:30] noi trebuie să ne revenim din ideea asta că ei joacă după reguli.[00:21:33] George Buhnici: Ei nu joacă după [00:21:35] reguli.[00:21:35] Revenim la IGDLCC în dată ce-ți spun despre sponsorul nostru, Darkom Energy, [00:21:40] cei care ne garantează că nu ni se sting luminile din studio. Adică nu avem [00:21:45] niciodată pene de curent. Panourile fotovoltaice, invertoarele și bateriile sunt [00:21:50] inima sistemului nostru energetic și cred cu tărie că sunt investiții importante, dar [00:21:55] și rentabile.[00:21:56] Cu acest sistem am economisit deja mii de euro la facturi, dar [00:22:00] și mai important avem electricitatea garantată fără fluctuații care ne pot defecta [00:22:05] electricele și electronicele. Dacă ai în plan să construiești, să renovezi [00:22:10] orice fel de clădire, inclusiv industrială alege o soluție solidă de [00:22:15] generare și stocare de energie Noi colaborăm cu echipa Adarcom Energy și îi [00:22:20] recomandăm.[00:22:20] I-am auzit pe europeni siderați, șocați, că după ce au lansat comenzi de [00:22:25] F-35, au aflat că... Dar a zis-o cu gura lui Trump zilele trecute. Zice, o să le vindem [00:22:30] aliaților noștri niște arme toned down, că poate mai încolo le vine [00:22:35] o idee să ne atace cu ele.[00:22:37] Cristian Onetiu: Păi[00:22:37] George Buhnici: gândește[00:22:38] Cristian Onetiu: că noi nu avem acces la [00:22:40] Nvidia, la procesoare.[00:22:41] Adică prea avem acces. Adică [00:22:45] cantitatea pe care el a comandat-o și a zis mie să-mi dai primul că eu vreau să fiu cea mai mare putere [00:22:50] de procesare de date și AIU-ul meu vreau să domine tot și vreau să fiu cel [00:22:55] mai bun în tehnologie. Noi nu prea mai avem acces la [00:23:00] procesatoare. Hai să zicem că găsim putere de procesare, dar nici acolo nu suntem foarte bine.[00:23:05][00:23:06] E tot un război și ăsta și e pe față [00:23:10] Și într-un fel să știi că mie îmi place că e pe față acum. Cumva cred că ar trebui să ne [00:23:15]trezim dintr-un vis frumos în care toți ăștia sunt [00:23:20] așa de corecți și de etici și numai noi, europenii eram ăia care nu ne [00:23:25] țineam de treabă și nu țineam. Nu e chiar așa. Ne trezim la realitate și ceea ce până acum părea.[00:23:30][00:23:30] Era implicit, adică nu se putea spune, deodată devine explicit. Uită-te și [00:23:35] la gender equality, apropo de zona asta socială. Era implicit [00:23:40] diferența asta între femei și bărbați. Adică și dacă o spuneai cineva zicea, hai mă că nu-i [00:23:45] chiar așa. Acum când îl vezi pe Conor McGregor la [00:23:50] Trump în birou și pe Andrew Tate favorizat și adus în țară ca [00:23:55] să facă treabă și pe Elon Musk și pe Trump în sine cu [00:24:00] toate lucrurile astea este explicit.[00:24:02] Că ei vor să facă din [00:24:05] nou patriarhat global. Este explicit. Dar asta e foarte bine [00:24:10] pentru că bărbații care până acum li se părea că e o conspirație [00:24:15] altora unii și altora, acum se retrag și ei și zic, bă știi ce, ar trebui să fim mai moderați. [00:24:20] Adică înțelegem că treaba asta e reală. Se vede că [00:24:25] gender gap și gender equality nu e o vrăjeală.[00:24:28] Sunt niște oameni [00:24:30] care o împing cu agenda, o împing cu intenție, ea nu [00:24:35] mai la subteran, a ieșit afară. Și văd din ce în ce mai mulți bărbați [00:24:40] care încep să vorbească despre lucrurile astea, despre cum putem să [00:24:45] devenim sau să contra Să creăm [00:24:50] contexte care femeile și bărbații să lucreze bine împreună pentru că știm că ăsta e viitorul, pentru că știm că [00:24:55] ăsta este singura metodă prin care noi vom crea valoare mai multă.[00:24:58] Unul plus unul va crea [00:25:00] trei.[00:25:01] George Buhnici: În toate țările unde ai femei în poziții de management și de conducere, [00:25:05] crește prosperitatea. Da, uite, sunt doar 15% la nivel de leadership[00:25:09] Cristian Onetiu: [00:25:10] position.[00:25:11] George Buhnici: Iar în[00:25:11] Cristian Onetiu: România, hai să fim serioși. Să știi că în România nu [00:25:15] suntem chiar așa de rău la nivel de antreprenori. Studiile pe care le știu eu la nivel de antreprenoare și antreprenori [00:25:20] suntem pe primul loc la nivel de număr de antreprenoare față de [00:25:25] europeni.[00:25:26] Față de europeni? Da, și au făcut multe firme. [00:25:30] Probabil că sunt și multe firme liberale, poate sunt neapărat companii cu angajați, că nu am statistică atât în [00:25:35] profunzime de câți angajați au, dar nu stăm rău, să [00:25:40] știi, pare că România e în zona de [00:25:45] gender gap undeva pe la mijlocul Europei. Grecia fiind în partea de jos, Germania fiind sub noi, [00:25:50] chiar dacă sunt mult mai educați, adică dacă te uiți pe rapoartele de gender gap și gender equality, [00:25:55] vei vedea că nu stăm chiar așa de rău.[00:25:56] Ar trebui să începem să găsim mai multe lucruri bune pe care le [00:26:00] avem deja. Încep să fie obositoare toate [00:26:05] topurile în care suntem numai praf. Suntem în topuri și în zona bună. Și dacă [00:26:10] nu putem fi, putem alege să fim într-o anumită zonă și să nu mai vedem numai partea [00:26:15] negativă. Suntem ultimii pe treaba aia Ok, hai să stabilim dacă e o prioritate cu toții și să ne [00:26:20] apucăm de ea.[00:26:20] Pentru că dacă tot așteptăm ca alții să ne-o facă, nu o să ne-o facă. [00:26:25] Noi am avut noroc până acum în democrația noastră de lideri hoți și proști. [00:26:30] Dar n-am avut norocul nostru că n-am avut și un megaloman. [00:26:35] Au încercat.[00:26:35] George Buhnici: Păi am avut un Dragnea. Am avut un Ponta. [00:26:40] Băsescu s-a retras democratic. Iohannis a fost aruncat sub autobuz.[00:26:45][00:26:45] S-a aruncat singur în avion și după ce[00:26:48] Cristian Onetiu: ani nu l-am mai văzut. 23 [00:26:50] de milioane? 25 de milioane de dolari? Până pe avioane? Ne luam niște avioane bune. [00:26:55] Deci într-un fel... Tot ce spunem acum că e rău, putea fi mult mai rău. Și știu că [00:27:00] nu e o variantă bună să spunem că, băi ăsta, să ne mulțumim că [00:27:05] se putea mai rău, știu.[00:27:06] Băi imaginează[00:27:06] George Buhnici: 20 de ani cu Iliescu sau cu Băse [00:27:10] sau cu Constantinescu sau cu oricare. Băi, e bine. Există o teorie a lui Taleb care [00:27:15] spune că pur și simplu simplul fapt că poți să schimbi îți aduce mai bine. Da. [00:27:20] Opționalitatea, faptul că poți să alegi simplul fapt că poți să alegi nu contează că alegi [00:27:25] întotdeauna vei alege răul cel mai mic și când alegi răul cel mai mic, măcar ai ce să alegi Da.[00:27:29] Nu rămâi [00:27:30] înțepenit într-o singură opțiune cu care trebuie să te duci. Sunt [00:27:35] foarte multe țări pe planetă, prea multe deja, care nu au văzut alți lideri. [00:27:40] Da. Bine și la noi sunt două opțiuni.[00:27:44] Cristian Onetiu: Și [00:27:45] când ai trei opțiuni trebuie să ai un pic de critical thinking, [00:27:50] să știi, să gândești. Și când te uiți în zona de [00:27:55] alegeri și vezi că prezența mai mare la vot de fapt nu aduce oamenii [00:28:00] liniștiți educați, care știai că te gândeai că stau acasă liniștiți și nu votează, ci aduc [00:28:05] alte pături sociale, te îngrozești să mai și spui haideți la vot.[00:28:09] [00:28:10] Că nu știi cine vine, de fapt tu nu știi ce-i acolo. Ăștia care se[00:28:13] George Buhnici: uită la noi trebuie să meargă la vot. Da, [00:28:15]ăștia da. Și ceilalți trebuie ajutat să înțeleagă să facă diferența.[00:28:19] Cristian Onetiu: Da. [00:28:20][00:28:20] George Buhnici: Da, pentru că fiecare trebuie la votul lui și votul meu e egal cu votul lui Nea Vasile.[00:28:24] Cristian Onetiu: Da. [00:28:25][00:28:25] George Buhnici: Asta e democrația până[00:28:25] Cristian Onetiu: la urmă. Eu m-am implicat în ultimele săptămâni luni [00:28:30] să construiesc un gimmick, un deck.[00:28:33] Curiozitate prin care [00:28:35] să-i ajut pe oameni să gândească critic, să aibă mai multe perspective [00:28:40] deodată. E o platformă în care sunt puse știri [00:28:45] crude, cât crude se poate ca să nu intrăm în subiectul ăsta, adică nu la [00:28:50] mâna a treia, a patra, interpretate deja cu un ton ovoi, ci mai aproape de [00:28:55] sursele de știri simple.[00:28:57] S-a întâmplat asta, asta s-a întâlnit cu ăla, asta s-a întâlnit, [00:29:00]asta s-a întâmplat Cum îi zice? Cetățean.ro încă nu e, urmează să fie, [00:29:05]dar îți arăt cum funcționează, adică iei o știre de acolo care e crudă, de la Reuters, de la [00:29:10] Jetpress, din zone care, să zicem că sunt mai mult știri, știu, toate au bias-ul [00:29:15] lor, știu, toate au, dar te duci un pic mai aproape de unele mai curate mai clean.[00:29:19] [00:29:20] Ok. Să-ți gândești tu pe ce se întâmplă pe fapte. [00:29:25] Și poți să-ți setezi niște profile. De comentatori [00:29:30] care preiau prin AI tone-of-voice-ul unor comentatori cunoscuți și [00:29:35] care sunt unii mai progresiști, unii mai conservatori, unii mai moderați, unii mai activiști, unii mai [00:29:40] pasivi social și așa mai departe. Îi vezi pe o matrice de nouă [00:29:45] pătrățele și începi să faci pe aceeași tire interpretări diferite de la [00:29:50] unul mai progresist unul mai conservator, unul mai naționalist, unul mai așași pentru că îi [00:29:55] identifici și poți să-ți și numești ca nume acolo ca să îi ai ca referință și [00:30:00] AI-ul ia din tone-of-voice-ul lor și din interpretările acelui profil și îți [00:30:05] arată cum poți să vezi în cinci feluri diferite aceeași tire.[00:30:08] Ca să nu mai cazi pradă [00:30:10] algoritmului care dacă te-a uitat cumva la două știri de un anumit fel să creadă că îți place [00:30:15] și să te ține acolo trei săptămâni de să nu mai știi de capul tău să ți se îngusteze lumea.[00:30:19] George Buhnici: [00:30:20] Cum a făcut Nenea la Agigea, să nu știu unde s-a urcat pe pod de dimineață că el vrea [00:30:25] neapărat turul doi înapoi[00:30:26] Cristian Onetiu: Da.[00:30:26] Și[00:30:27] George Buhnici: l-au luat și l-au luat la spital să-l caute un pic și la căpuț, pentru că ăla [00:30:30] probabil a văzut pe TikTok atât de multe chestii despre că trebuie să ieșim în stradă [00:30:35] că el a ratat faptul că s-a închis, gata, dacă vrei să[00:30:38] Cristian Onetiu: protestezi, s-a [00:30:40] dus. Când intri pe platformă, intri pur și simplu și îți faci un profil.[00:30:44] Îți faci un profil [00:30:45] care, uite, arată așa. Deci sunt 9 cadrane în care te încadrezi în funcție de răspunsuri Eu am făcut un test [00:30:50] aici. Păi și îmi faci bulă cu AI cu chestia asta? Nu-ți fac bulă, din potrivă. Eu ți-arăt... Mă scoți [00:30:55] din bulă? Te scoți din bulă. Tu ai o interpretare subiectivă a ta, răspunzi la 12 [00:31:00] întrebări și spui eu sunt cam așa așa mi-arată.[00:31:01] Ok, bun. După care începi să te uiți la [00:31:05] știri și când ai la știri, vezi o știre, da? Și când vezi o știre tu [00:31:10] o interpretezi. Nu știu, e una de astea, da? Și îți [00:31:15] redefinești niște comentatori cu AI. Aici sunt niște nume pe care le-am editat [00:31:20] eu în așa fel încât să-mi fie mai ușor să văd perspectiva lor. Am pus CTP, Cristoiu, [00:31:25] Tolontan, Călin Georgescu, mai sunt câțiva.[00:31:29] Și atunci... [00:31:30] Păi nu, că este în stilul lui. Eu îl editez. Eu nu-l dau [00:31:35] în platformă și atunci tu ți-l pui cum vrei. Dar îți dau niște referințe ca să poți să le înțelegi. Și tu dacă... că [00:31:40] și aici scrie dacă tu dai pe unul de ăsta, spune ăsta nu este el. Este un AI care [00:31:45]interpretează tonul voice-ul și profilul în care l-am încadrat pe acel individ.[00:31:47] O să țară ăștia în capăt să zică că le-ai furat [00:31:50] identitatea. Ai grijă. După care faci o generare Dacă intri gura lui CTP? [00:31:55] Păi nu, că eu mi-am editat Eu acolo sunt blank. Platforma nu-i numește. Tu ți-i editezi cum vrei tu. Tu le-ai dat nume. [00:32:00] Da. Eu îți dau o serie de personaje care seamănă de acolo și tu ți-o îndenumești cum vrei tu.[00:32:04] Am [00:32:05] înțeles. Da? Și asta-i generat de CTP, de Profilul ăsta pe care [00:32:10] l-am numit ăsta. Tu-ți selectezi de aici ce-ți place, zici bă, asta e interesantă. Și ți-o [00:32:15] păstrezi în... ți pui în partea de... Ți-ai salvat-o. [00:32:20] Te mai uiți și la altul, ți-ai salvat-o și după aceea îți pui o perspectivă personală în care [00:32:25] tu spui bă, părerea mea este asta, că așa văd eu lucrurile și îți generează un [00:32:30] răspuns în funcție de cum îl vrei, stil analitic, explicativ, pamfletar, [00:32:35] socratic, narrativ sau chiar și inversui, în care tu îți generezi un articol al [00:32:40] tău.[00:32:40] Îl editezi, îl lucrezi și după aceea ți-l publici Și fiecare articol pe [00:32:45] care îl publici este din nou procesat să-ți arate dacă e în cadranul tău sau tu pe [00:32:50] diferite puncte de vedere ai abordări diferite. Te cunoști mult mai bine când tu crezi despre tine [00:32:55] că ești, nu știu, progresist, moderat civic, dar tu vezi că în toate articolele [00:33:00] pe care tu le publici sau le salvezi, poți să nu le publici de fapt ești în altă parte sau ai [00:33:05]subiecte pe care nu ești deloc așa adică nu seamănă cu ce ești tu în mod [00:33:10] declarat Altfel spus, ești din bulă, ești din algoritm vezi perspective [00:33:15] diferite deodată în același timp și...[00:33:17] Încep să te cunoști mai bine pe tine, să vezi care [00:33:20] sunt subiectele, pentru că în realitate tu n-ai simțit vreodată că pare așa că suntem [00:33:25] schizofrenici, la unele suntem foarte conservatori, la unele suntem foarte progresiști, băi bine să ne vedem [00:33:30] istoric notițele noastre și articolele noastre unde suntem mai progresiști, unde suntem mai [00:33:35]conservatori, unde suntem mai naționaliști înflăcărați, trebuie să [00:33:40]începem să ne cunoaștem pe subiecte Și dacă noi nu începem să ne cunoaștem, nu avem cum să [00:33:45] vorbim altora mai asumat.[00:33:47] Și dacă noi nu începem să vorbim mai asumat, oamenii [00:33:50]care se uită la noi și ne întreabă cum o să fac eu, cu cine votez, [00:33:55] nu o să aibă argumentație. E un ghimic, e un test E un fel de anti-algoritm. [00:34:00] Să vezi unde te potrivești tu în algoritm și să ieși de acolo. Exact. Pe măsura ce tu [00:34:05] îți creezi conținut, tu te cunoști mai bine pe tine.[00:34:07] Nu algoritmul te cunoaște și tu nu știi [00:34:10] că el știe mai multe despre tine. Tu începi să știi mai multe despre tine pe[00:34:13] George Buhnici: subiecte. Acum o întrebare pentru [00:34:15] cei care ne urmăresc să hotărăscă ei dacă au timp chef, disponibilitate să facă așa [00:34:20] ceva. Vreți să faceți așa ceva? Vreți să aflați în ce parte a [00:34:25]bulei sunteți și să ieșiți din bulă?[00:34:26] Eu fac exercițiul ăsta de la începutul [00:34:30] carierei Până că mi-am dat seama făcând școala de jurnalistică [00:34:35] facultatea mi-a dat seama clar că unii o dau așa și unii o dau așa. Și nu există adevăr [00:34:40] obiectiv sute la sute. Există nuanță întotdeauna, orică timpul te limitează. [00:34:45] Cât timp ai să cercetezi, cât timp ai să comunici chestia aia, cât timp ai să procesezi.[00:34:49] Asta am [00:34:50] și făcut de fapt Ce[00:34:50] Cristian Onetiu: înseamnă AI până la urmă? Aici înseamnă pe scurt, înseamnă o [00:34:55] metodă mult mai rapidă de a căuta de mii ori mai multe informații și de [00:35:00] a-ți găsi o soluție la o problemă mult mai repede. Problema asta e AI-ul. Și, de fapt asta și vrem să [00:35:05] facem aici. Să-ți dureze la fel de mult să-ți creezi o proprie opinie, văzând mai multe perspective, [00:35:10] decât să citești o știre biasată de nu știu ce post astăzi de celălalt post astăzi sau după aceea [00:35:15] când te prinde algoritmul de aceleași surori care îți dau aceiași informații.[00:35:18] George Buhnici: Să-ți ia la fel de[00:35:19] Cristian Onetiu: [00:35:20] [00:35:25] [00:35:30] [00:35:35][00:35:40] [00:35:45] puțin timp. Da? [00:35:50] Bă, dacă îl citești pe ăsta, asistăm la un nou episod din telenovela balcanică intitulată nu știu ce, dacă îl pui [00:35:55] pe cel pe care l-am numit Cătălin Tolontan, e cu totul [00:36:00]altfel. Adică profilul ăsta, o să-ți spun imediat profilul ăsta cum e, ăsta [00:36:05] este profil încadrat foarte activ, [00:36:10] moderat folosești un ton sobru, factual, orientat spre detalii [00:36:15] concrete, citează cifre, date, statistici și așa mai departe.[00:36:18] Regruparea extremei drepte în [00:36:20] jurul, nu știu care prin o schimbare semnificativă, fiecare are perspectiva lui, te înveți, eu după ce m-am, [00:36:25] îți seama că testând, mă uit și zic doamne, eu nici măcar nu știam până acum să [00:36:30] pot să-mi dau seama de diferențele de interpretare a unei știri. Cu toate că... [00:36:35] Mă credeam capabil să fac asta.[00:36:37] George Buhnici: Nu eram antrenat. Singurul mod în care [00:36:40]poți să o faci manual, dacă vrei, nu așa cu AI, este să te uiți pe mai [00:36:45]multe canale de televiziune Și să vezi aceeași tire pe 5-6 canale diferite dacă mai [00:36:50] dă cineva aceeași tire Da, dar nu le găsești[00:36:52] Cristian Onetiu: același timp. Nu le vezi sincron. Deci [00:36:55]trebuie să-ți iei câteva ore pe zi ca să faci treaba asta.[00:36:57] Asta făceam[00:36:58] George Buhnici: în începutul anilor 2000. [00:37:00] Da. Că pe vremea aia nu aveam social media și efectiv stăteam și mă uitam [00:37:05] și la chinezi și la Al Jazeera, mă uitam și la BBC și la CNN și după aceea începeam să fac o idee. Așa e. [00:37:10] Dar este un efort și chestia asta până la urmă te poate face [00:37:15] mai greu de manipulat, mai sarcastic.[00:37:18] Nu, nu cred că [00:37:20] ajungi la sarcastic cred că[00:37:20] Cristian Onetiu: sarcastic ești mai... Mai[00:37:22] George Buhnici: sătul,[00:37:23] Cristian Onetiu: te saturi de toată [00:37:25] manipularea. Păi da, dar atunci ești[00:37:26] George Buhnici: devis sătul când nu înțelegi. Când înțelegi Când înțelegi, cred [00:37:30] ajung la un moment dat să ți se ia de toți ăștia. Păi nu da, observi[00:37:32] Cristian Onetiu: Că toată lumea[00:37:32] George Buhnici: minte.[00:37:33] Cristian Onetiu: Păi da, da, devii observator.[00:37:34] Devii [00:37:35] observator. Și asta e drept. Nu mai ești sarcastic nu mai devii sarcastic [00:37:40] victimă ci devii cinic față de lume, [00:37:45]observator. Tu zici, păi așa funcționează lumea când o înțelegi cum funcționează lumea, nu mai te superi, nu mai [00:37:50] ai așteptări de la ea.[00:37:51] George Buhnici: Trebuie să înțelegem lumea că de aia suntem aici.[00:37:53] Cristian Onetiu: Da.[00:37:54] George Buhnici: Și tu ai [00:37:55] capacitatea asta de a evalua, ai și o metodă de care mi-ai povestit de pe stel Aplicăm pe stelul, pe [00:38:00]situația actuală?[00:38:01] Cristian Onetiu: Da, pe scurt așa.[00:38:02] George Buhnici: Poate că ne-am lălăit-o noi un pic, dar cred că [00:38:05] aveți un pic mai mult context în legătură cu felul în care ne raportăm, inclusiv la America și la alte părți [00:38:10] ale lumii în momentul ăsta, dar și la Europa, și înțelegem că are mai multe bune decât [00:38:15] credem, că diversitatea ne face mai rezistenți ca în pădure, că dacă ai diversitate, dacă [00:38:20] bradul ăsta a fost atacat, gândacu' nu are cum să sară motorul brad dacă mai sunt niște [00:38:25] fagi, niște carpeni între ei, știi?[00:38:26] Și atunci dacă în România ai probleme și n-ai probleme în [00:38:30]Germania sau invers, poți să ajungi în cele din urmă ca lucrurile astea să se... Dacă începem să funcționăm ca organism,[00:38:34] Cristian Onetiu: [00:38:35] dacă nu funcționăm ca organism, nu transferăm informațiile ADN de [00:38:40] la unul la altul, nu ducem anticorpii, dar dacă începem să funcționăm ca organism Europa, [00:38:45] Atunci vom face[00:38:46] George Buhnici: acest transfer rapid.[00:38:47] Ani de zile am observat chestia asta, nici o televiziune de [00:38:50]la noi nu avea corespondenți la Bruxelles, nu știu dacă ai observat. Și dintr-o dată un [00:38:55] european și-a dat seama că are o problemă de comunicare și în ultimii doi ani a început să [00:39:00] aibă corespondenți acolo să transmită europarlamentarii să aducă din [00:39:05] țările lor oameni care să vadă cum se întâmplă procesul ăsta pentru că e destul de ușor să te uiți la [00:39:10] distanță Ai mă că ea sunt într-un turn de filde și acolo și fac chestii.[00:39:12] Bă, până la urmă noi am votat, am venit să fac niște chestii.[00:39:14] Cristian Onetiu: [00:39:15] Dar tu uite-te la știri. Câte știri sunt în care se vorbește despre ceva de la Bruxelles, comparativ cu ce s-a [00:39:20]întâmplat în America, în Rusia, în China sau altul de acolo? Zero. Zero, da Nici măcar nu știm [00:39:25] ce rol are Parlamentul Europei. Exact. Noi nu știm.[00:39:28] Noi ne uităm și spunem, ce faceți mă [00:39:30] acolo? Cum ați ajuns să aveți atâta Binecurație, uite ce salarii au! Da, deci nu știm. Nu știm [00:39:35] Nici măcar comparativ cu alte sisteme [00:39:40] centralizate ca așa noastre, ce salarii au aia comparativ Ce roluri au? Cât de [00:39:45] democratic[00:39:45] George Buhnici: funcționează asta față de altele Habar n-avem.[00:39:47] Până la urmă tot la federalizare vom ajunge, dacă vrem să [00:39:50]fim competitivi și trufea sau altul din Europeană trebuie să se comportă ca o federație.[00:39:54] Cristian Onetiu: [00:39:55] Iar antreprenorii și oamenii cu spirit antreprenorial trebuie să înțeleagă lumea repede, pentru că dacă [00:40:00] nu înțeleg, s-ar putea să construiască modele de business [00:40:05] strâmbe, inutile sau să nu înțeleagă [00:40:10] stakeholderii, fie că e vorba de consumatori, e vorba de stat și administrație [00:40:15] publică centralizată sau locală, furnizori.[00:40:18] Deci dacă ai un [00:40:20] business care vinde în toată lumea, trebuie să te gândești bine în noua economie ce să faci Dacă ai furnizori din [00:40:25] America trebuie să te gândești rapid ce să faci și trebuie să înțelegi lumea pentru că tu nu poți să aștepți [00:40:30] doar când îți vine un mail de la furnizorul tău în care spune că îți vinde cu 40% mai scump sau tu [00:40:35] îi vinzi cu 30% mai scump.[00:40:36] Trebuie să anticipezi lucrurile astea. Trebuie să cunoști lumea Și [00:40:40] doi cred că, acum dau spoiler din ce mi-am pregătit [00:40:45] aici, cred că vor fi o grămadă de oameni. Întreprenori de nevoie. [00:40:50] Nu de vocație sau de pasiune sau de viziune. [00:40:55] Antreprenori de nevoie. Pentru că își vor pierde relevanța job-urile lor în pozițiile pe care le au [00:41:00] acum.[00:41:00] Ajungem acolo.[00:41:02] George Buhnici: Câteva întrebări foarte directe și aplicate, ca să fim [00:41:05] și un pic concreți, că mulți oameni o zică vorbiți mult, dar da ține ceva. Bun. Dolari. [00:41:10] Ținem dolari asaltea sau nu? Aș recomanda nu. De ce? [00:41:15] Politic sau...?[00:41:16] Cristian Onetiu: Și, și. Și, și. De [00:41:20] ce dolarul este moneda internațională? Pentru că [00:41:25] stăpânul sau capul lumii libere era american.[00:41:28] Când capul lumii [00:41:30] libere nu mai e american, eu nu știu cine o să fie, ar fi bine să te gândești că nu mai va, [00:41:35] nu, nu, îi va fi greu să păstreze [00:41:40] puterea absolută pe care a avut-o. Plus că avem pe alții care au interese. Uite pe ăștia cu [00:41:45] BRICS-ul, uite pe alții care așteaptă la colți de mult. Adică și ei vor fi loviți de, [00:41:50] așa cum Europa e lovită în democrație și dolarul va fi, așteaptă la cotitură de prea mult timp alții să [00:41:55] vină cu concorența unui currency.[00:41:58] Deci vorbești de[00:41:58] George Buhnici: competiție, da? [00:42:00] Crezi într-un scenariu în care administrația americană va devaloriza dolarul ca să [00:42:05] lăcută la[00:42:05] Cristian Onetiu: export? Da, a început de mulți o să continue să facă treaba asta. Deci și prin [00:42:10] genul ăsta de măsuri, și prin măsurile care de fapt [00:42:15] erodează încrederea în capacitatea Americii de a mai vrea să fie [00:42:20] polițistul lumii și puternicul lumii.[00:42:24] [00:42:25] Ok, deci nu ținem dolari. Aș recomanda să [00:42:30] ne obișnuim cu... Ideea de [00:42:35] Wall Street, de a avea multe forme de asset-uri și [00:42:40] să ne uităm dimineața să vedem care a scăzut, care a crescut. Mai bine să ne obișnuim să [00:42:45] avem 10 currency-uri și 10 tipuri de asset-uri care au o anumită fluctuație [00:42:50] decât să stăm îngrijorați cu toate ouăle puse pe dolar și toată [00:42:55] dimineața să ne uităm, să vedem ce-a făcut ăia.[00:42:58] Dacă vrei să nu fii la mâna [00:43:00] altora, trebuie să ai diversificare. Diversificare înseamnă să ai și euro, [00:43:05] înseamnă să ai și currency-uri internaționale care circulă dar și [00:43:10] currency-uri netradiționale. Adică deja [00:43:15] poți în orice companie să-ți faci conturi de cripto, poți să operezi, adică de ce să nu [00:43:20] ai mai multă mai puțină expunere față de...[00:43:25][00:43:25] Degemonia unui dolar. Deci mai puțin dolar și mai mult euro. Mai mult [00:43:30] euro, mai mult... Chiar și cripto. Chiar și cripto da. Trebuie să ai stomac [00:43:35] de jucător pentru chestia asta. Adică trebuie să te uiți dimineața să nu te panichezi că a [00:43:40] scăzut 10%, că a făcut nu știu cine, nu știu ce. Adică trebuie să ai un pic de stomac.[00:43:44] [00:43:45] Dolarul nu va scădea 10% peste noapte, dar în 3 ani de zile va fi și [00:43:50] va avea și el niște spaicuri. Mă aștept să aibă niște spaicuri. Dar trebuie să fii jucător și trebuie să te înțelegi că [00:43:55] nu mai e lumea de mai demult când te culci cu 10 lei în buzunar și te treci tu cu [00:44:00] 10 lei și poți să cumpere acele lucruri cu 10 lei.[00:44:02] Adică noi ce vorbim aici vorbim din părerile [00:44:05] noastre personale. Nimic din ceea ce spun eu nu vreau să fie luat ca mai [00:44:10] mult altceva decât o opinie personală din ceea eu gândesc și ceea fac pentru business-urile mele. [00:44:15] Noi ne strângem informațiile din sursele noastre și ajungem la niște [00:44:20] concluzii.[00:44:20] George Buhnici: Am mai spus chestia asta, nu cheltui pe crypto decât banii pe care ești pregătit să-i [00:44:25] pierzi pentru că s-ar putea să-i pierzi.[00:44:26] Sunt șanse mai mari de zero să pierzi bani în [00:44:30] crypto, da? Da, în multe alte zone, chiar[00:44:32] Cristian Onetiu: și în piață de capital. [00:44:35] Dacă te duci acum și începi să pui bani în piață de capital și să cumperi acțiuni și să vinzi, come [00:44:40] on. Adică știi vorba, unii în bursă vin cu experiență unii vin cu bani, [00:44:45] aia care a venit cu experiență pleacă cu bani, aia care a venit cu bani pleacă cu experiență.[00:44:49] George Buhnici: Iar la [00:44:50] crypto, chestiile astea sunt și mai dure, pentru că am văzut inclusiv oameni din jurul lui Trump care [00:44:55] au făcut monede și tot felul de combinații de crypto. Pare un free-for-all, toată [00:45:00] lumea este, e foame de bani, băieții , e foame de bani așa e. E foame de bani dar pe [00:45:05] partea de crypto, cum o vezi în perioada asta?[00:45:07] Ți se pare că piața e sus, e jos? E [00:45:10] sub-evaluată e supraevaluată[00:45:11] Cristian Onetiu: Sub. De[00:45:12] George Buhnici: ce?[00:45:14] Cristian Onetiu: Pentru[00:45:14] George Buhnici: că[00:45:14] Cristian Onetiu: o [00:45:15] țin. Au mai fost perioade în istorie în care au ținut-o acolo până [00:45:20] când și-au făcut ITF-urile lor, până când au cumpărat la prețul la care au vrut ei.[00:45:23] George Buhnici: Am mai[00:45:24] Cristian Onetiu: spus chestia [00:45:25] asta. În continuare ea prin surprindere. Deci e atât de [00:45:30] avantgardist scripton cât i-a luat...[00:45:32] Bitcoin-ul [00:45:35] le-a luat înainte. Ei se gândeau la lucrurile astea, dar le-a luat-o înainte mult, abia s-au prins cu [00:45:40] el care-i treaba, dar sunt încă întârziați cu tot ce poate, crypto, [00:45:45] blockchain și tot ce înseamnă tehnologiile descentralizate de astăzi DAO și așa mai departe. Ei [00:45:50] de-abia țin pasul, e o mașină care a pornit...[00:45:53] Cu 800 la oră [00:45:55] și ești cu un elastic prins în spate și mai trage câteodată elasticul așa și mai prind, [00:46:00] dar se uită iar a plecat mașina, bă de abia ne-am prins cu treaba asta, bă iar a plecat. [00:46:05] E mult mai dinamic, e mult mai dinamic domeniul decât pot ei duce [00:46:10] și pot nu reglementa ci strânge [00:46:15] sau[00:46:15] George Buhnici: capitaliza ei, știi?[00:46:16] Cristian Onetiu: Dar[00:46:17] George Buhnici: până la urmă, uite și guvernanții americani după ce [00:46:20] păreau anti-anti-anti, acum declară public că vor încerca să acumuleze din orice sursă [00:46:25] posibil. Păi de ce? De[00:46:26] Cristian Onetiu: ce până acum au fost anti? Dacă mie nu-mi place că faci tu platforma [00:46:30] cetățean.ro și deschizi mintea oamenilor, o-ți dau 10 [00:46:35] motive să închizi și să urlu la tine și peste 3 ani când ești și tu [00:46:40] pregătit, o să spui uite am făcut și eu noi un tool cu un AI care să-i ajute pe oameni.[00:46:43] Dar ea e a, nu mai e [00:46:45] descentralizat, nu mai e, nu. E, îl controlez eu acolo dau la butoane dau eu. Mai așa, mai [00:46:50] așa. Așa-i peste tot. Atunci când nu înțelegi ceva și știi că-i potențial acolo, îl [00:46:55]reglementezi și dai în el până-l omori. Și când îl omori cumperi ieftin și după aceea [00:47:00] zici, bă știi ce? Bă nu-i chiar așa de rău.[00:47:02] Am început să-l înțelegem. În[00:47:04] George Buhnici: [00:47:05] paranteze și am început să-l deținem. De ce? E încă de vreme. Pentru că de [00:47:10] cele mai multe ori ni se pare că am ratat și ideea asta, când de fapt schimbarea nu se întâmplă [00:47:15] peste noapte, durează o vreme și sunt încă destul de multe lucruri care încă [00:47:20]sunt în infanție, cum zicem.[00:47:23] Știi Sunt la început. [00:47:25] Alte lucruri mai vezi că sunt încă de vreme. Pentru... Partea[00:47:28] Cristian Onetiu: asta de [00:47:30] America, am intrat deja în zona asta și speranța mea este ca Europa să [00:47:35] rămână bastionul democrației, fragil, mușcat de [00:47:40] fund din toate părțile și izolat, chiar văd o [00:47:45] izolare în viitorul în perioada următoare, și pe toți ceilalți care [00:47:50] încearcă să muște.[00:47:51] În România cred că politic ne [00:47:55] vom... Ne vom bătători mințile, nu știu cum o să fie, [00:48:00] pentru că o să continue toată zona asta de populism economic. Mă uit [00:48:05] îngrijorat la tot ce înseamnă impactul promisiunilor dubioase, [00:48:10] politice în zona de cifre. Nu au niciun fel de sustenabilitate, dar [00:48:15] mă îngrijorează că oamenii nu sunt curioși de a înțelege [00:48:20] cifrele.[00:48:20] Adică să te lași așa ușor păcălit de cineva care spune că o să-ți [00:48:25] dau, nu o să-ți mai iau fără să înțelegi că... Că împărțim la toată lumea...[00:48:30] [00:48:35] [00:48:40][00:48:44] Că genul [00:48:45] ăsta de mesaj nu că prinde, înțeleg că prinde. Dacă nu ne trezim și că [00:48:50] nu există voci raționale care să vorbească numai despre asta, zic că, bă, știi ce, eu nu [00:48:55] mai vorbesc la emisiunea asta despre nimic până nu mă răspunzi la întrebarea asta. Pentru că tu îți bazezi tot [00:49:00] mesajul pe genul ăsta de argumente.[00:49:03] Până nu mi-e explici, eu nu te mai [00:49:05] întreb ce ai mai făcut când ai fost mic, cu cine te-ai mai certat, eu nu-ți mai dau spațiu de emisie până când nu [00:49:10] rezolvi axiomele cu care tu pornești sub formă de platformă program și care nu sunt [00:49:15] sustenabile. Dacă mi le explici pe alea după aceea vorbim despre tot ce vrei tu.[00:49:18] Dar nu mi-ai răspuns la [00:49:20] lucrurile pe care... Marșalitatea emisiunilor de televiziune par spălări zilele astea Da. Da, deci aici [00:49:25]trebuie să avem grijă unii de noi și trebuie să ne manifestăm spiritul civic mai mult între [00:49:30] prieteni, între apropiați, între oamenii care pot vorbi despre ceva. Dar scurt pe[00:49:34] George Buhnici: partea politică de [00:49:35] la noi, oamenii au impresia că totul se joacă acum, nu mai nu se joacă tot.[00:49:38] Din punct de vedere parlamentar [00:49:40] e închisă pentru voturile patru ani. Deci avem parlamentul rezolvat, guvernul n-ai cum să îl dai jos, [00:49:45] poate să vină orice președinte, nu poți să schimbi configurația care e la putere în momentul ăsta. Hai [00:49:50] să ne trezim un pic. Bătălia este pentru cine pune și la servicii. Pe [00:49:55] partea asta politică este multă gargară se vorbește mult, sunt tins să-ți dau dreptate [00:50:00] că următorii patru ani ne vor arăta cât departe se poate duce suveranismul ăsta la noi.[00:50:04] Cristian Onetiu: [00:50:05] Da. Da? Deci asta, nu vorbesc numai până la alegere, acum. Eu vorbesc de... În următorii patru ani. Da. [00:50:10]2025, 2026, 2027. Deci asta se va amplifica tot mai mult. Ok. Pentru că indiferent ce se va întâmpla și [00:50:15] dacă câștigă un suveranist sau nu președinția, subiectul ăsta nu s-a [00:50:20] terminat. Corect El nu se închide acum.[00:50:21] Din potrivă, el se amplifică sub o formă de [00:50:25] gherila, că am rămas ne-au furat, sau sub formă de hai să le arătăm la aia și hai [00:50:30] să dărâmăm tot ce e așa că nu-i bun. Deci asta va continua într-o formă sau alta, ambele [00:50:35] Va trebui să ne înarmăm cu rațiune și cu discuții de critical [00:50:40] thinking, că tot am vorbit de critical thinking și critical thinking îmi scria cineva pe [00:50:45] un comentariu dom'le, dar să nu mai fim atât de critici Critical thinking nu înseamnă că îl critici pe [00:50:50] celălalt înseamnă că despachetezi, de acolo vine din greacă despachetezi un termen [00:50:55] să-l înțelegi adică îl raționalizezi puțin îl pui pe hârtie, nu că tu ai o idee și [00:51:00] critical thinking înseamnă eu să fiu împotriva ta[00:51:02] George Buhnici: să te[00:51:02] Cristian Onetiu: critic.[00:51:03] George Buhnici: Critical thinking, dacă [00:51:05] acest maga, dacă suveranismul american reușește, crezi că [00:51:10] următorul parlament de la noi va fi suveranist? Va avea majoritate suveranistă? În Europa? Da. [00:51:15]Adică MAGA, ce vor ei? Da, pentru că MAGA nu a reușit să [00:51:20] facă Europa MAGA încă, dar dacă planul lui Trump cu roligarhii [00:51:25] lui cu MAGA, cu toate mișcarea asta reușește în America să o facă cumva nu știu, great, [00:51:30] grozavă dacă fac America grozavă în mătorii 2-3 ani, până la mătoare alegeri [00:51:35] crezi că poate să răstoarne și America și Europa să o facă MAGA?[00:51:38] Cristian Onetiu: Dacă o face [00:51:40] grozavă, da dar mă îndoiesc că poate să o facă adică [00:51:45][00:51:46] George Buhnici: apropo de cinism Hai că-mi notezi, fii atent, suntem în [00:51:50] neapropiem de, ne registrăm încă în martie martie 2025, Cristian Nețiu a spus așa [00:51:55] că Trump nu o să reușească[00:51:56] Cristian Onetiu: Nu cred, nu pentru că are foarte multe lucruri adică singurul [00:52:00] lucru care-l văd care văd să-l reușească este să facă o dinastie din familia lui [00:52:05] asta o văd sau din apropiații lui, să zicem Știi că a vrut să o pună pe Ivanka [00:52:10] să candideze Păi Uite-te și tu la pozele astea, cum vezi toată familia acolo, nu-ți [00:52:15] arată dinastie?[00:52:16] Adică când dacă venea Obama, [00:52:20] nu că țin eu cu Obama, nu țin nici cu nici care, n-am nicio treabă cu ei, dar zic ca și [00:52:25]comparație, dacă venea cu Michel în dreapta să o pună nu știu ce, păi sărea toată [00:52:30] lumea în sus. Dar a încercat Clinton. Noroc că s-a [00:52:35]împiedicat Clinton. Da mă de fapt în esență, toți încearcă același lucru.[00:52:39] Când [00:52:40] ai putere absolută.[00:52:42] George Buhnici: Nu puterea absolută [00:52:45] orbește absolut.[00:52:46] Cristian Onetiu: Te face cea mai [00:52:50] absolutistă persoană din lume. Nu există, nu există nu ne-a arătat istoria niciodată până acum, [00:52:55] că doar din istoria care o știm noi așa nostalgică, că acel mare cezar a fost bun pentru [00:53:00] oameni. Nu știu Nu știm A fost tot despre puterea lor și despre toate Tot revenind la America, dar[00:53:04] George Buhnici: [00:53:05] trebuie să te mai întreb ceva.[00:53:06] Da,[00:53:06] Cristian Onetiu: ultima.[00:53:06] George Buhnici: Elon Musk. Eu zic Elon Musk, tu spui? [00:53:10][00:53:10] Cristian Onetiu: Eu[00:53:10] George Buhnici: zic Peter Thiel Adică? Păi [00:53:15] trebuie să te duci mai sus. Apropo de știri, știi? Există cineva mai șmecher[00:53:18] Cristian Onetiu: decât Elon Musk acolo? Peter Thiel, [00:53:20]clar. De ce? a fost. Păi întotdeauna a fost. Și angajatorul lui principal și finanțatorul lui principal [00:53:25] cum? Adică nici nu se pune problema cine-i...[00:53:26] Păi Musk e cel mai[00:53:27] George Buhnici: bogat[00:53:28] Cristian Onetiu: unul de pe[00:53:28] George Buhnici: planetă. [00:53:30][00:53:30] Cristian Onetiu: Că așa... Și teoretic cel mai puternic. Eu sunt în 500 Forbes, dar [00:53:35] eu mai știu încă 10.000 care nu sunt acolo și care au mult mai mulți bani [00:53:40] decât... Eu n-am atâția bani cât scriu acolo și au de 100 de ori mai mulți bani și nu știe nimeni. [00:53:45] Nu e vorba de asta. E vorba de...[00:53:46] Lupta nu mai e pe banii. Banii sunt peste tot. E o luptă [00:53:50]ideologică Peter Thiel este un ideolog puternic. Foarte puternic. Foarte [00:53:55] puternic. Și a învățat de la René Girard niște lucruri fantastice care le-a [00:54:00] concretizat într-un capitalism [00:54:05] brutal. Brutal. [00:54:10] Elon Musk e mai... Umanist, parcă decât [00:54:15] Peter Thiel. Adică acolo ce văd eu mai departe ce [00:54:20] pot să înțeleg mai departe, că acolo este vârful [00:54:25] acestor mari bogații ai lumii cu companiilor [00:54:30] tehnologice.[00:54:30] E doar putere? E doar obsese de putere? Nu. Cei mai periculoși sunt [00:54:35] ăștia care au ideologie. Care cred că lumea asta era [00:54:40] cum e, că ne ducem în râpă, [00:54:45] inevitabil. Dar, vezi, și fașismul tot așa funcționează. Identifică [00:54:50] un lider maxim care te salvează, nu o instituție. Trebuie să identifice un pericol și [00:54:55] un dușman.[00:54:55] Deci acestea sunt caracteristicile premergătoare unui în [00:55:00]Italia, fașist. Așa s întâmplat. E aceeași rețetă. [00:55:05] Ok.[00:55:06] George Buhnici: Deci cât mai dorează relația lui Elon cu Trump? [00:55:10] Depinde de[00:55:11] Cristian Onetiu: pilă.[00:55:12] George Buhnici: Cel al cărui nume nu-l pronunțăm nu? Ca Harry Potter [00:55:15] Exact, exact. Voldemort. Depinde de vil că til l-a pus și pe Vens. Ascul [00:55:20] niște podcast-uri din state în care ei vorbesc cu foarte multe în fază despre acest patriotism al [00:55:25] oamenilor din tehnologie care vor să salveze țara și [00:55:30] trebuie să repare guvernul că e plin de s

Em and Don talk to two-thirds of The Matriarchy, "No Mercy" Zeke Mercer and Amanda Maslow! They talk competing for 880 Wrestling, how The Matriarchy formed, representation in wrestling, the influence of Maria Kanellis-Bennett, and chasing the 880 tag titles.

Burnout in construction happens when contractors get stuck at the safety needs level of Maslow's hierarchy, unable to access the relationships and accomplishments that provide true fulfillment.• Maslow's hierarchy of needs begins with physiological needs (food, water, shelter) and safety needs (financial security)• When contractors focus exclusively on safety needs, they neglect relationships and community• Burnout occurs when you spend all your energy "fishing" without building systems to make fishing more efficient• Working "on" your business (building processes) is as important as working "in" your business (daily operations)• Many contractors blame clients for problems when they haven't developed proper processes to manage client relationships• Taking inventory of what you truly need versus what society says you should want helps redefine success• Sometimes burnout indicates you're in the wrong role or need to reassess your skills• Building processes takes time but ultimately frees you from the daily grind• Setting realistic goals with your family about what success looks like prevents chasing others' definitionsIf you're experiencing burnout and want to talk, reach out to us at ProStruct360.com for a free 30-minute consultation.

GiveDirectly is an extraordinary organisation, working to end extreme poverty through an idea that is simple but revolutionary: give cash directly to people in extreme poverty and let them decide what they need most. Research shows this approach is not only effective but also deeply empowering.Since I (Robbie) first read about GiveDirectly in 2017, it has been the focus of almost all my charitable giving: I find the research-backed practices and incredibly meaningful recipient stories so compelling that almost every time I have thought in detail about the organisation and what they do, I have increased my regular giving.In this special Podcasthon episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, Stephanie Hill, the VP, People at GiveDirectly, joins me to explore the connections between teaching, coaching, and leadership, and to outline the transformational work that GiveDirectly does.From her days working to recruit and develop thousands of teachers in New York City to her role in helping a rapidly scaling global nonprofit build strong teams, Stephanie shares deep insights into learning, growth, and the power of trusting people to know what they need.In this episode, we discuss, on GiveDirectly:Why giving cash directly to the poorest people in the world works!Common misconceptions about cash transfers as a form of philanthropy.Amazing stories from GiveDirectly's recipients.The Power of Trust – why both great coaching and effective philanthropy start from the belief that people know what they need.And on learning, coaching, culture and more:The Gradual Release Model – how great teaching (and coaching) helps people build confidence and autonomy over time.Lessons from Scaling – what it takes to grow an organization quickly while keeping core values intact.Building a Culture of Learning – how GiveDirectly fosters ongoing development among its globally distributed team.Leading with Values - how has GiveDirectly taken its company values and actually brought them to life.Stephanie's personal leadership journey – what she learned from recruiting and training 5,000 teachers a year and how those lessons apply to coaching, leadership and organizational growth today.This episode is packed with wisdom for coaches, leaders, and anyone passionate about learning, development, and making a meaningful impact.I can't wait to share GiveDirectly's amazing work with you, but it's not just that this is an amazing charity that made me want to feature GiveDirectly on the show; it's that it's a charity whose work closely aligns with the philosophy of coaching.At its heart, coaching is about trusting people, believing they have the answers within them, and supporting them to make the best choices for their own lives.GiveDirectly operates on the same principle. Rather than imposing solutions, it hands people the resources to create their own change. For coaches who want to make a difference in the world beyond their work, I can't think of a better organization to support: if you've never quite found a focus for your charitable giving that really resonates, or if you've ever wondered how you can contribute in a way that aligns with the values of coaching — courage, trust, empowerment, and belief in human potential — GiveDirectly could be a powerful answer.If you have a few pounds or dollars to spare this month or every month, consider giving to GiveDirectly. They will send it to someone for whom those few pounds or dollars will go further than you can possibly imagine, as part of a story of courage, empowerment and trust in the beauty of human nature.For more information about GiveDirectly, visit: https://www.givedirectly.org/ or https://www.linkedin.com/company/givedirectlyTo donate to GiveDirectly, visit: https://www.givedirectly.org/donate/For more information about Stephanie, visit https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-hill-1232028For more information about Robbie Swale, visit https://www.robbieswale.com/.Read more about The Coach's Journey at www.thecoachsjourney.com.Music by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN:Rutger Bregman: https://www.rutgerbregman.com/Bregman on tax at Davos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ijiLqfXP0Bregman's TED Talk - "Poverty isn't a lack of character; it's a lack of cash": https://www.ted.com/talks/rutger_bregman_poverty_isn_t_a_lack_of_character_it_s_a_lack_of_cash/ Utopia for Realists: https://www.rutgerbregman.com/books/utopia-for-realists GiveDirectly Live: https://live.givedirectly.org/ GiveDirectly's Research: https://www.givedirectly.org/research-at-give-directly/ Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs GiveDirectly Donation Link for the US: https://www.givedirectly.org/donate/ GiveDirectly Donation Link for the UK: https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/5197#!/DonationDetailsHow to donate to GiveDirectly from other countries: https://www.givedirectly.org/giving-internationally Teach for America: https://www.teachforamerica.org/TeachFirst: https://www.teachfirst.org.uk/The GROW Model: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GROW_model Inner Game of Tennis by Timothy Gallwey: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Inner-Game-Tennis-ultimate-performance/dp/1035047926 GiveDirectly NPR Article: https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2019/12/02/781152563/researchers-find-a-remarkable-ripple-effect-when-you-give-cash-to-poor-families Carol Dweck and Growth Mindset: https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Psychology-Carol-S-Dweck/dp/0345472322Elena Aguilar and "Mind the Gap": https://www.edweek.org/education/opinion-the-key-to-working-with-adult-learners-mind-the-gap/2018/02 Fred Kofman: https://www.fredkofman.org/The GiveDirectly Values: https://www.givedirectly.org/givedirectly-values/ The Leadership Pipeline (book): https://www.amazon.com/Leadership-Pipeline-Second-Edition-Developing/dp/0470894563How to Help GiveDirectly: https://www.givedirectly.org/how-to-help/Work at GiveDirectly: https://www.givedirectly.org/careers/ Podcasthon: https://podcasthon.org/ Book your place at Robbie and Claire Pedrick's event in Malvern in 2025: The Artful Coach and the Soulful Coaching Business.

After university, she joined Teach For America in New York City and taught English Literature to low-income High School students in The Bronx while getting her Master's degree in teaching. She then worked for Teach For America as a coach to cohorts of new teachers.After a brief stint as a recruiter, she joined the New York City Department of Education to build a new model for teacher preparation - one that would integrate theory and practice and include a longer, more intentional gradual release of responsibility for new recruits. The program also created a new career-ladder position for the supervisors of these aspiring teachers - experienced educators who were selected and trained to not just share their classroom, but also provide targeted, actionable modeling and feedback that would accelerate the learning process.Stephanie worked to scale that program to prepare over 500 new teachers for NYC's hardest to staff schools each year, while eventually taking on leadership of the city's overall teacher recruitment and preparation - where she led a team to recruit and place over 5,000 new teachers each year.In April of 2020, she joined the international non-profit organization GiveDirectly as their first VP, People, just as the organization was going through a period of rapid growth, with ~75% headcount increase year over year. GiveDirectly takes an innovative approach to aid by giving unconditional cash to people living in extreme poverty, often using a technology-forward approach to maximize efficiency (and therefore dollars to recipients). Stephanie is proud to have led the People function for the past 5 years - building and defining recruitment, people operations, learning and development, talent planning and employee engagement for the organization.

Unlocking the Secrets to Self-Actualization: A Journey with Skye and Tony Thornton Actualizingtherapy.com About the Guest(s): Skye and Tony Thornton are the co-founders of T Life, a company specializing in actualizing therapy, a unique approach combining therapeutic practices with mentorship to aid individuals in their personal journeys. Tony Thornton launched T Life in 2017, inspired by the profound impact his late mother, Patricia, had on his life. Skye Thornton, an avid reader, collaborates with Tony to help clients apply therapeutic practices in real-world settings, fostering an ethos of authenticity and self-actualization. Together, they work closely with clients to illustrate life patterns and provide personalized guidance for overcoming challenges. Episode Summary: Join Chris Voss as he delves into an enlightening conversation with Sky and Tony Thornton, the minds behind T Life and its innovative approach to therapy. In this episode of The Chris Voss Show, Tony and Skye share their transformative journey from personal loss to becoming guides in the world of actualizing therapy. They articulate how their unique method, distinct from traditional therapy, fosters self-actualization and personal accountability in everyday life. In this dynamic discussion, Chris Voss and the Thorntons explore the shortcomings of traditional therapy, particularly for individuals who have difficulty confronting their own behaviors. They emphasize how actualizing therapy, with its practical, life-integrated approach, helps clients see their true selves and make meaningful changes. With an understanding rooted in the principles of self-efficacy and a nod to the theories of Maslow, they detail the model of being "illustrators" who guide individuals through their deepest challenges. Their conversation touches on the significance of handling childhood trauma, understanding personal fallacies, and achieving congruence between one's inner and outer worlds. Key Takeaways: Actualizing therapy combines therapeutic principles with mentorship to help individuals address personal challenges directly in their daily lives. Skye and Tony Thornton focus on illustrating patterns in clients' lives to foster self-awareness and accountability. Unlike traditional therapy's one-way street, their method involves real-world interactions that unveil true behaviors and insights. Self-efficacy and genuine personal change are central to the process of self-actualization. Facing one's own issues and becoming authentic provides a path to a fulfilling and liberated life. Notable Quotes: "Embracing the deep, dark shadow work is where it starts." – Tony Thornton "Self actualization is your most natural form." – Skye Thornton "It's not about achieving perfection, it's about becoming the best person you want to be." – Tony Thornton "The fruits of working on yourself are truly liberating." – Skye Thornton "Life is much better on the other side when you mentally fix your game and you're clean." – Chris Voss

Sun., March 16The Meaning of Lifewith Josh ReevesThere are many inspirational thoughts about the meaning of life. Jesus said it was spiritual rebirth. Charles Schulz said it's anyone and anything that's loved by you. Psychologists like Jung and Maslow said it was personal development or self-actualization. Others have said it's something we ourselves choose. Today we talk about the most intimate of topics—the very meaning of your life.

Ideally we all reach ‘self actualization' at the top of the pyramid. But what happens if our lower blocks get sabotaged by our job? Or addiction? Or by society?

Episode 244: What defines a differentiated customer experience? It starts with a clear framework for measuring intangible value and making calculated trade-offs. In this special tribute show, we revisit our 2016 conversation with Eric Almquist, a former partner at Bain & Company, on the Elements of Value. This framework transforms how businesses understand loyalty, brand equity, and growth. Inspired by Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Eric made value practical, categorizing 30 elements into functional, emotional, life-changing, and social impact levels. His research connected the dots between delivering on multiple elements and revenue growth. Learn how successful industry leaders deliberately layer value over time and how even in B2B, solutions that ease complexity can offer emotional benefits, such as hope. Eric was a pioneer in customer analytics and segmentation, his mantra being: What do customers truly value? His valuable insights continue to shape business thinking. Today we celebrate his legacy in customer experience and brand strategy.

It's much harder to know how to increase demand, and how to increase revenue. That asymmetry is what's motivated me to develop the elements of value.” [00:04:00] "Maslow's hierarchy of needs was developed in the mid-20th century. So as we're drawing on something very old, when I talk to audiences, I'll ask them if they know Maslow's hierarchy of needs and all the hands go up, and then I ask them how many of you have used it to, say, improve a product or think of a new product, and the hands tend to go down. The reason is that it's pretty academic." [00:05:00] "We began to think about functional elements of value, emotional elements of value that could be life-changing. Following Maslow's hierarchy, the top of the pyramid, the highest level of motivation, was around altruism or charitable giving. We call that social impact." [00:07:00] "If you are delivering on zero elements of value by our threshold definition, revenue growth tends to be around negative 2%. If you're delivering on four or more elements of value, the average is 13%. Eight of the original 47 companies that we looked at were delivering on zero elements of value at our threshold. The truth is if you're delivering on zero elements of value for very long, you're probably going to be crushed by a competitor or be acquired, would be my guess." [00:09:00] "[The elements of value] really began as a thought experiment. I began thinking about all the work that I had done over all the decades, thinking about what I've heard in focus groups and interviews and observations and surveys. I began to realize value is not infinitely complex nor mysterious. There are actually things that you can point to that are appealing or not appealing.” Additional information on what was discussed in today's episode: HBR article, The Elements of Value, by Eric Almquist, John Senior, and Nicolas Bloch: https://hbr.org/2016/09/the-elements-of-value  Eric's perspective on the elements of value: https://www.bain.com/insights/eric-almquist-managing-the-elements-of-value-video/ Episode 117 of Customer Confidential with Eric, What Do B2B Customers Want?: https://baincompany.libsyn.com/ep-117-eric-almquist-what-do-b2b-customers-want  Explore the B2C elements of value in more detail here: https://www.bain.com/insights/elements-of-value-interactive

Are you trying to build success without having your basics covered first? In this enlightening episode, Scott Smith takes us back to the fundamentals with a fresh look at Abraham Maslow's time-tested Hierarchy of Needs theory from 1954. Scott explains why establishing a "peaceful foundation" is essential before pursuing bigger goals. While today's world pushes instant gratification, Scott reminds us that life works in certain ways that can't be hacked or bypassed. Whether you're thriving or struggling, this episode provides the remarkably simple yet powerful framework to ensure you're building your life and goals on solid ground. Learn how to establish the peaceful base that will support everything else you want to achieve. Featured Story: Scott revisits Abraham Maslow's revolutionary Hierarchy of Needs theory from 1954, explaining how this psychological foundation remains crucial for success today. He breaks down the hierarchy into practical terms—from securing your basic physiological needs to achieving self-esteem and ultimately transcendence—creating a roadmap for building a "peaceful foundation" that supports everything else in life. Key Takeaways: Before pursuing ambitious goals, ensure your basic physiological needs (food, shelter, clothing, income) are securely met Creating a sense of safety—personally, emotionally, financially, and health-wise—forms the second layer of your foundation Humans are tribal by nature; social connections and belonging to a community are essential for happiness Self-esteem and confidence naturally develop after establishing the previous foundations Transcendence (focusing on the greater good beyond yourself) only becomes possible with a solid foundation No "secret hack" can replace having these fundamental needs met in the proper order Health should never be sacrificed in pursuit of other goals—it will eventually catch up with you Memorable Quotes: "Stand up, take a step, and repeat. How long? Till you get what you want. Why would you stop before you got there anyway?" "A peaceful foundation is just a solid place. It's peaceful. It's not rocking. It's not shaking. And from there, we can build anything." "What a man can be, he must be. Self-actualization requires mastery of those previous needs." Scott's Three-Step Approach: Build Your Peaceful Base - Identify and address any gaps in your physiological needs and safety. Ensure you have stable food, shelter, income, and health before tackling bigger ambitions. Connect Authentically - Prioritize in-person, synchronous connections with like-minded people. Join groups or communities that share your values and goals to fulfill your need for belonging. Respect the Process - Follow the natural progression of Maslow's hierarchy rather than trying to skip steps. Build your foundation first, then focus on esteem needs, and finally allow yourself to transcend toward greater impact. Connect With Scott: Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
