Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 4, 2025 is: spontaneous • spahn-TAY-nee-us • adjective Spontaneous describes something that is done or said in a natural and often sudden way and without a lot of thought or planning. It can describe a person who does things that have not been planned but that seem enjoyable and worth doing at a particular time. // The kitten captured our hearts, and we made the spontaneous decision to adopt. // He's a fun and spontaneous guy, always ready for the next big adventure. See the entry > Examples: "The Harlem Renaissance was filled with poetry and song—and with performance, as enshrined in [filmmaker William] Greaves's footage which features many spontaneous, thrillingly theatrical recitations of poems by Bontemps, Hughes, Cullen, and McKay." — Richard Brody, The New Yorker, 23 Sept. 2025 Did you know? When English philosopher Thomas Hobbes penned his 1654 treatise Of Libertie and Necessitie he included the following: "all voluntary actions … are called also spontaneous, and said to be done by a man's own accord." Hobbes was writing in English, but he knew Latin perfectly well too, including the source of spontaneous; the word comes (via Late Latin spontāneus, meaning "voluntary, unconstrained") from the Latin sponte, meaning "of one's free will, voluntarily." In modern use, the word spontaneous is frequently heard in more mundane settings, where it often describes what is done or said without a lot of thought or planning.

The universal human experience of falling off track and the courageous journey of finding our way back comes under McKay's scrutiny this week. Analyzing why we wander from our goals, he provides a practical guide for course correction, whether in our careers, health, or personal lives. Using the inspirational stories of Lindsey Vonn and Bethany Hamilton, McKay shows how our "why" helps us overcome monumental setbacks, and he also draws on the biblical story of Jonah to highlight the importance of acting even when we don't feel like it. Our host then cites such thinkers as Oliver Burkeman and Joseph Campbell in dismantling the myth that we must feel motivated to act, arguing we should instead "follow our blisters, not our bliss" by finding purpose in the work and sacrifice. This episode is a toolkit for anyone who has drifted, offering actionable strategies - like starting small and building rituals - to reclaim their path, emphasizing that progress is about persistence and reminding us that discipline and routine are the true engines of change.Main Themes:Discipline, not motivation, is the engine of progress.Wandering is inevitable; the real work is in choosing to return.To find your way back, first remember your "why."Purpose is found in the effort, not just the enjoyment.Momentum is built one small, consistent step at a time.Character is built in the small choices you make every day.Top 10 Quotes:“Motivation is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work.”“Who says you need to wait until you feel like doing something in order to start doing it?”“Progress doesn't mean perfection. It means returning to the path quicker each time you wander.”“Don't give in to the immediate feeling. Give in to your true motive.”“Getting back on track almost always begins by rekindling the reason you cared in the first place.”“We don't have to get swallowed up by life or things if we face the things we don't want to do and do them anyway.”“Wandering just doesn't steal our habits; it steals pieces of who we want to be.”“Small acts of integrity strengthen your integrity muscles.”“Getting on track requires simple clarity.”Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

McKay explores a collection of life-altering epiphanies by asking the powerful question, “What has been one of the most helpful thoughts or epiphanies that you have had that has made you more free or empowered to act?” He reveals how simple yet profound shifts in thinking can redefine our reality, from the principle that “what you focus on expands” to the freedom that comes from choosing our thoughts.Using the incredible story of Jim Carrey's focused visualization, McKay illustrates how our focus acts like a spotlight, magnifying whatever it shines on. He also introduces the powerful management metaphor of “the monkey on your back,” teaching that we can empower others and protect our own priorities by refusing to take on problems that are not ours to solve. Citing profound near-death experiences and the work of thinkers like Mel Robbins, he demonstrates that we always have the agency to choose our thoughts and actions, regardless of our feelings or circumstances. Ultimately, this episode is a guide to identifying and embracing the ideas that empower us to live with more intention, joy, and resilience, serving as a powerful reminder that our greatest freedom lies in our ability to choose our perspective.Main Themes:Our thoughts and energy have a way of magnifying what we focus on, whether it is problems or solutions.We can empower others and avoid burnout by not adopting their problems or responsibilities (“monkeys”) as our own.True and lasting joy is often found by savoring the small, simple moments in life rather than chasing grand experiences.The resilience to overcome challenges comes not from perfection, but from the simple commitment to “just try” again and again.We have complete agency over our thoughts; we can choose grace, optimism, and action regardless of external circumstances or internal feelings.Understanding that our journey continues after this life provides a powerful incentive to invest in becoming our best selves now.Top 10 Quotes:“What you focus on expands.”“What I went through made me who I am. What I am going through will make me what I will be. What I choose to put my focus toward will now create that person.”“We do not remember the years that come and go in our life, but we do remember the moments.”“Successful people have very clear goals. They know who they are and what they want. They write them down and make plans for their accomplishment.”“I do not have to adopt other people's problems as my own to help them.”“I get to choose what I think about.”“The test is not whether you reach your goals in one burst of energy, but the test is to see if you will stay in the game and just try.”“There is always a way, even when it feels like there is not.”Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

In this powerful message at Glory to Glory Church in Kutztown PA, Pastor Nicole McKay shares a life-changing word on the compassion of Jesus—the kind of love that sees, cares, and acts. Throughout the Gospels, Jesus was moved with compassion to teach, heal, and feed those in need. His love still moves today, reaching into the broken places of our lives to bring hope, healing, and restoration. ❤️If you've ever wondered whether God sees what you're going through, this message will remind you: His compassion never fails. He is not distant—He's deeply involved in your story.

Conducting a fascinating exploration into the origin of The Beatles and the role of "dumb luck" in history, McKay demonstrates the power of expectations. Along the way, he reveals how the gap between expectation and reality is a key source of our happiness and offers a framework for harnessing this power to shape a better future.Our host goes on to explain that happiness depends less on our circumstances and more on their alignment with our expectations. He illustrates this with The Beatles' story and fascinating historical examples of "dumb luck," such as a change of wind saving George Washington's army. Citing that the core solution is to actively shape our reality by setting powerful expectations, McKay reveals how visualizing our "best possible self" creates new neural pathways in the brain, making success more likely. And referencing studies on rats and mentally-practicing basketball players, he shows that what we truly expect, we tend to create.Main Themes:Our level of happiness is determined by the gap between our expectations and reality.Random chance and "dumb luck" play a significant role in life's outcomes, so we must be flexible.What we expect, we unconsciously work to create; our expectations directly influence our actions and results.We can consciously harness the power of expectation by vividly imagining and defining our "best possible self."Visualizing success creates neural pathways that can make achieving goals more likely than physical practice alone.Setting high expectations for yourself and others is one of the most powerful catalysts for growth.Top 10 Quotes:"Happiness is less about the reality of life and more about the alignment or misalignment between what we anticipate and what we encounter.""Dumb luck is a bigger part of our life than we think.""When we expect something, we change our behavior, even if we're not consciously aware of those changes.""When you imagine yourself doing something, you create a neural pathway.""In your mind, you never miss a shot. This is the power of expectation.""The ‘future you' is found in a belief window full of expectations.""If you don't have an expectation, a destination, you really have no reason to make plans.""Whatever you can do or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.""There is no passion to be found in playing small, in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.""You and I were not put here on this earth to just get by or tread in the waters of unfulfilled thoughts or lack of expectations."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Drawing upon the inspiring stories of such people J.K. Rowling and Sara Blakely, McKay explores how the biggest obstacle to our dreams is often ourselves. Throughout the episode, he reveals practical strategies to overcome common forms of self-sabotage and finally achieve your goals. McKay breaks down the most common examples of how we get in our own way, such as the fear of failure, waiting for perfect conditions, and overthinking. He contrasts this paralysis with the power of taking immediate, imperfect action, highlighting Sara Blakely's journey with Spanx and Jeff Bezos's "70% rule" for decision-making. The core solution presented is to build momentum through small, consistent efforts and to act with integrity in the "moment of choice" - simply doing what you set out to do. By focusing on your own journey and avoiding the trap of comparing yourself to others, you can dismantle these internal barriers and move forward.Main Themes:The biggest barriers to success are often internal fears, doubts, and procrastination.Take immediate, imperfect action instead of waiting for the "perfect" moment to begin.Act with integrity in the "moment of choice" by following through on your commitments.Small, consistent efforts are more effective than short, intense bursts of work.Overcome overthinking by making decisions when you have 70% of the information, not 100%.Measure your progress against your past self, not the curated lives of others.Top 10 Quotes:"More often than not, the greatest obstacle is the person staring back at them in the mirror.""I stopped pretending I was anything other than who I was, and I determined more than I had ever determined before what I was meant to do.""Exercise integrity in the moment of choice.""Waiting for no risk or perfect conditions is one of the most dangerous forms of self-sabotage.""Overthinking is a form of self-sabotage disguised as diligence.""Comparison is the thief of joy.""Consistency compounds results. Intensity, however, without regularity, often leads to burnout and frustrations.""Make a decision when you have roughly 70% of the information you want. Waiting for 90 to 100% certainty often causes missed opportunities.""Progress shouldn't be measured against others. It should be measured against our own past selves.""Getting out of your own way happens in small, consistent steps and buying into faith instead of fear."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

LIVING AN AMERICAN DREAM, 45min., USA Directed by Clare McKay Two Haitian brothers, along with family and friends, discuss their experiences growing up adopted in a ranching lifestyle and how rodeo plays a part. A story of faith, passion, drive and following your dreams no matter where you're from or plan to go. https://www.instagram.com/livinganamericandreamdoc/ Get to know the filmmaker: What motivated you to make this film? This film was actually never meant to be but I'm a storyteller at heart. I started with the simple idea of creating short sizzle reels for my brothers who were avid bronc riders at the time and slowly but surely the story was born out of traveling around with them and capturing footage. I began to think how I could add more “meat” to what I was collecting and Living an American Dream was born. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? Living an American Dream took 6 years to create. How would you describe your film in two words!? First child What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? The biggest obstacle was finding an editor or production company that understood my voice and vision without attempting to change the narrative. While I ultimately maintained creative control, the lack of collaboration made the process an “uphill battle” that I would not want to repeat.

McKay explores the habits of self-made wealthy individuals in this week's episode of the Open Your Eyes podcast. Drawing insights from such entrepreneurs as Elon Musk, Ingvar Kamprad, Warren Buffett, Lucy Guo, and Chuck Feeney, the episode aims to extract actionable insights from their lives that we all can implement in our own.Noting that wealth is built on key behaviors, not just saving, McKay highlights the power of continuous learning, calculated risk-taking, and an unwavering commitment to a "winning strategy". He also explores the value of "urgency bias," doubling down on talents, and prioritizing time. Throughout this revelatory episode, our host stresses that true worth stems from contribution (as exemplified by Chuck Feeney's philanthropy), and guides listeners to appreciate the significance of these proven habits and cultivate a mindset for prosperity and satisfaction.Main Themes:Successful individuals avoid procrastination and act promptly.Embracing lifelong learning and constantly seeking knowledge is crucial.Willingness to take informed, calculated risks is a common trait.A relentless commitment to a clear, winning strategy sets them apart.They focus efforts and creativity on their greatest strengths.Prioritizing time, often investing money to save it, is key.Hiring and learning from experts is something they do readily.Find true worth and satisfaction in helping others and making a contribution.Entrepreneurial journeys often begin in their teenage years.Top 10 Quotes:"Most people think that great brands like Tesla just appeared, but not so.""Wealthy people are always learning.""Your mind is your greatest asset.""The truth is, you can always make money, but you can't always make more time.""I think most people could have work-life balance if they cut out where they waste their time.""They pay for expertise without hesitation.""The habits of wealthy individuals are not built on secret formulas or mere good fortune.""The compounding effect of such habits can redefine both financial outcomes and life satisfaction."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

(00:00) Weather and Golf Post Ryder Cup This chapter brings us to the picturesque Pine Canyon in Flagstaff, Arizona, where we share a mix of personal experiences and reflections on recent golf events. We recount the unexpected hailstorms and flooding in Arizona, painting a vivid picture of the unusual weather conditions that recently swept through the region. Amidst this backdrop, I took the opportunity to savor a quiet day on the golf course, capturing videos and appreciating the scenic beauty before the onset of winter. We then shift our focus to the Ryder Cup, highlighting the challenges faced by even the world's best golfers in alternate shot formats. The discussion emphasizes the psychological pressures of playing not just for oneself, but also for a partner and country. We explore how the European team's familiarity with match play contributed to their superior preparation and performance, leading to a decisive advantage in the initial rounds against the U.S. team. (12:08) Ryder Cup Crowd Behavior Discussion This chapter takes us through a candid conversation about golf, regional attitudes, and sportsmanship. Jeff Smith joins from Flagstaff, Arizona, as we discuss the challenge of playing at Bethpage Black, one of the toughest courses. We reminisce about Michael Michaelides, who worked there and his New York grit. The discussion turns to the notorious behavior of some New York fans during the Ryder Cup, reflecting on the negative stereotypes of the "ugly American" and sharing personal anecdotes from living in New York. We explore the tension between being a sports fan and maintaining respect, especially when witnessing the unprecedented face-off between the world's top two golfers. As someone who spent my teenage years in New York City, I share insights into the sometimes brusque nature of New Yorkers, illustrating the contrast with an amusing story about our move from Boston. (16:34) Golf Techniques This chapter offers a delightful blend of sports commentary and musical nostalgia. We share our appreciation for the professionalism of broadcasters Terry Gannon and Dan Hicks, while also distinguishing Dan Hicks from the country singer of the same name, known for his hit "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away." Our discussion then transitions to the golf world, focusing on Brad Faxon's insightful commentary and the notable absence of Keegan Bradley from a major tournament despite being the 13th ranked player globally. We speculate on the challenges and pressures that might have influenced his decision not to play, and reflect on the relentless nature of armchair critics. Additionally, we ponder the minute differences in skill and precision that can determine success in golf, particularly during high-stakes competitions like the Ryder Cup. (32:07) Sound Analysis and Sporting Events This chapter explores the nuances of sound in golf, particularly how experienced caddies like Jim "Bones" McKay can discern the difference between an average and a perfect strike, as demonstrated through the example of PGA Tour winner Tyler Duncan. We also touch on travel experiences, discussing scenic and not-so-scenic routes across the United States, from the engaging landscapes of Sedona to the tedious drive from Phoenix to Palm Springs. Additionally, we reflect on the recent disappointment at the Ryder Cup, despite high expectations, and share plans for an upcoming road trip across the country. Alongside these discussions, there is an exciting mention of attending a concert, with a hint of humor regarding who the performers might be. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The profound impact of teaching on unlocking human potential is the subject of McKay's focus today, arguing that everyone, whether a parent, coach, or team leader, plays the role of a teacher. The episode delves into the lives of such inspirational educators and mentors as Jaime Escalante, who transformed his students' lives by believing in them against all odds, among many others.McKay reveals that the most effective teaching transcends simply conveying information. It's about creating human connection, seeing the potential in others before they see it in themselves, and providing the right tools for growth. He introduces two powerful teaching strategies: creating a "hook" or "cognitive anchor" to make learning relevant and memorable, and using "scaffolding"—a process of explaining, demonstrating, practicing, and evaluating—to build skills and confidence. Through the stories of Thomas Edison and the Wright brothers, he also illustrates the immense power of "learning by doing." This episode is the guide for anyone looking to inspire, lead, and help others reach their full potential.Main Themes:The essence of teaching is to help others discover their own potential.Great teachers see students for who they can become.Discipline, focus, and mentorship are as crucial as raw talent.Effective teaching uses "hooks" to anchor new information to existing knowledge.Scaffolding (explain, demonstrate, practice, evaluate) is a key model for building skills."Learning by doing" is one of the most powerful forms of education.The joy of teaching comes from the human connection and witnessing growth.Everyone is a teacher, with the ability to leave a lasting legacy.Reading aloud to children is a powerful tool for cognitive and emotional development.Top 10 Quotes:"If students don't have to challenge themselves, then there's no teaching, there's no learning going on, there's no potential.
