Quaranteam - Dave In Dallas: Part 12 Consequences.

Have you ever felt that your heart knows more than your mind, that quiet intuitive wisdom that guides you when logic can't? In this week's episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with the incredible Estelle Bingham, a fourth-generation psychic, holistic healer, spiritual teacher, and author of Manifest Your True Essence, for a conversation that goes straight to the soul. Known as The Heart Whisperer, Estelle shares the deeper truth about the three hearts — the physical, emotional, and spiritual — and how reconnecting with them can unlock our innate power to heal. We talk about the courage it takes to truly feel, the shadow work that helps us meet the parts of ourselves we've long avoided, and why our next evolution as humans is a revolution of the heart. We explore everything from somatic healing and reparenting the inner child, to shame, grief, the Divine Feminine, and even AI, and how in the face of so much change, it's our connection to love and source energy that keeps us grounded and whole. If you've ever wondered how to live more from your heart with discernment, compassion, and courage, this conversation will remind you that everything you need is already within.

IntroductionIn this exposition of 1 Corinthians 2, Paul's contrast between the natural (fleshly) person and the spiritual person is carefully unpacked in light of the Canons of Dort. The goal is to correct common misunderstandings. We might want to be very moralistic where we impose our will on someone else because we are more Spiritual. We might want to make a distinction in the church. Some are Spiritual Christians, and some are carnal Christians. We all want to be Spiritual Christians. The Spiritual Christian has the mind of Christ. So, how can we be Spiritual with the mind of Christ? Folly's JudgementPaul teaches that the natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit. Man does not have a problem of neutrality. Man has a deep moral problem. Man is sinful to the core and does not embrace or even see the Lord's wisdom. Natural man will judge the Gospel and Scripture as folly. Scripture, from Genesis 3 onward, teaches that humanity is not merely sick but dead in sin. Fallen man is in rebellion against God. This is by man's choice. It is the fall into sin that condemns humanity. It is not that man needs to make better choices. Thus, the gospel appears “stupid” or “foolish” to the natural person. This is not because a natural person fails to read the words. The natural person can lay out the Gospel clearly. However, the natural person will never know the Christ of Scripture. We need the Lord to regenerate our hearts to respond in faith. Why Not Be Judged? When Paul says the spiritual person “is not judged,” we might think that we are above the law. We might think that we have immunity from the Lord's judgment. This is not the case. The same word translated “judged” also means discerned or evaluated.Paul is reminding us that we are called to discern what is right before the Lord. As we correctly discern, then we are not judged by man. We are submitting ourselves to the Lord's judgment. As the Lord works in us by the Spirit, he convicts us of our sin. The spiritual person can rightly evaluate life in light of Christ, while the natural person lacks the capacity to discern/judge/learn spiritual truth. They can read the Scripture, they can summarize the Gospel, but they will never live in light of it. We are simply saying that the regenerate, spiritual person has a new bent of the will. It is by the Spirit's work that the Spiritual person sees the wisdom and joy of life in Christ. So, the Spiritual person really desires and begins to conform to the Lord's will. How to Gain Christ's Mind? To have the mind of Christ is not to possess some sort of secret knowledge. It is to hear the gospel, and now see that message as the message of life. This is where the Christian begins to ask, “How do I please my savior?” Rather than, “How does everything please me?” Paul is intentionally undermining Corinthian elitism. The Corinthians equated maturity with spiritual gifts. They prided themselves on having the greatest teachers. The Apostle Paul defines maturity by embracing the cross, the resurrection, and the absolute necessity of Christ's saving work. Paul praises the spiritual Christian or the mature Christian who sees that they need to submit to their Lord and redeemer. The mind of Christ is shaped by doing the Father's will. It is doing the Father's will with joy. It is seeking to discern where we need to die to self. It is seeking to live unto the Lord. This is the essence of a true Christian ethic. A good workflow from faith. Good work is done by the Lord's standard or law. A good work is done for the Lord's glory and not man's approval (Heidelberg Catechism Q&A 91).Those who glory in Christ's humiliation and redemption are the spiritually mature. The reason: the spiritually mature know they need a savior. The spiritually mature want to live for their savior even if that life looks rather ordinary. The spiritually mature will know they need Christ and will not fully arrive at perfection until glory. The spiritually mature see their continual need for their savior. ConclusionHuman depravity is deeper than just a few bad decisions. Our condemnation before God is more than just failing to respond in faith, and we need to be more informed to make better decisions. We need more than the persuasion or assistance of Grace. We need the Lord's radical intervention to regenerate our hearts. Only the Lord can give us that new heart by his recreative power.Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians 2 dismantles every attempt to redefine spirituality apart from the gospel. Humanity's problem is not lack of information but spiritual death. Grace does not merely assist; it regenerates. The spiritual person is not superior, autonomous, or elite. The mature spiritual Christian rests in Christ. The mature spiritual Christians realize the grace that is overwhelmed by the Spirit, giving us a new heart in regeneration. The spiritually mature discern the things of Christ and seek to live for him. Let us be a people who want to live for Christ's glory as he is at work in us.

I dagens Rak höger repriserar jag ett av de mest lyssnade avsnitten under de senaste åren. Den 3 september 2024 intervjuade jag journalisten Anders Bolling som skrivit boken Professionell klimatbevakning: guide för en konstruktiv journalistik (NMI 2024) (ihop med journalisten Svenolof Karlsson). Det är en bok som sticker hål på klimatalarmismen, inte genom att avfärda forskning, utan genom att ta forskningen på största allvar. För det finns stor spännvidd mellan forskarnas uppfattningar om vad som egentligen sker, vad som kommer att ske och vad som bör göras åt det. Så varför kommer inte detta fram i mediernas rapportering? Om detta och mycket annat handlar dagens podd.Om ni tycker att dagens konversation är intressant tycker jag att ni ska läsa Professionell klimatbevakning. Det är en ögonöppnare. Anders Bolling har även skrivit Miljardlyftet: så förändras världen av ett växande Afrika ihop med Erik Esbjörnsson (Ordfront 2018). Och Apokalypsens gosiga mörker – världen ser inte längre ut som den gjorde men det vägrar vi att inse (Bonnier 2009). Han har en egen podd som heter Mind the shift.

Jonah Berger, professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, says that most of us aren't approaching persuasion the right way. Pushing people to behave how you'd like them to or believe the same things you do just doesn't work, no matter how much data you give or how many emotional appeals you make. Studying both psychology and business, he's found better tactics for bringing people over to your side. One of the keys? Asking questions so people feel like they're making the decision to change. Berger is the author of the book “The Catalyst: How to Change Anyone's Mind.”

In this New Year's Eve solo episode of The End in Mind, I'm sharing what I see coming next in marketing as we step into 2026 — and why so many old strategies are starting to fall apart.This episode is about the shift away from over-reliance on paid ads and toward organic marketing, trust-based visibility, podcasting, influencer relationships, and human-to-human connection. I talk about how consumer behavior is changing, why people are tired of being sold to, and what businesses need to focus on instead if they want to stay relevant and profitable.I also share practical ways to adapt: from leveraging podcasts and aligned creators, to understanding how AI search and map-based discovery are shaping visibility online.This episode is both a reflection and a forward-looking guide — meant to help you enter the new year with clarity, intention, and a smarter approach to growth.If your old marketing isn't working anymore, this episode will help you understand why — and what to do next!*Loved this episode?*Share it with a fellow business owner or creator who's rethinking their marketing for the new year, and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Has anyone ever planted a seed of doubt in your mind? In this week's episode I explain the dangers of “Dark Psychology” and how to mitigate it by exposing the manipulative tactics that individuals use to try and control us. Also, I discuss the importance of surrounding yourself with people who align with your vision, dreams, goals, and mindset. As we enter the new year, may we be mindful of how much the MIND controls our actions, behaviors , and ultimately shapes our reality. Check out Speaking Frankly Podcast on Spotify and SUBSCRIBE!

This year was brutal for many. A trial by fire. We have been taken through the lessons of our shadow. Seeing places we were not looking. Emotions that refused to be suppressed. We felt everything so deeply and were given opportunity to heal, transform and alchemize it. This podcast was one of those that we say we should have hit record. We were already recording and it happened. Our rally cry for 2026. We've been through it too, we see you and we love you. 

Take refuge in the Buddha, your inner Self.  Stop, Breathe, Reflect (Be Aware of what is going on inside and out), and Choose to respond.  Choose to Flow rather than react.  The flight, fright, or freeze Limbic (reptilian) part of our brain only knows to protect us. It knows speed not Happiness.  When we are caught in reactivity we are in our reptilian brain, reacting rather than responding.  As an alternative to jumping into our reptilian brain, consider this simple  practice.  Stop, Breathe, Reflect, Choose.  It only takes seconds to remain resting in Refuge as the Buddha and/or Christ that you are.These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own. If anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy.

You may, especially, enjoy the short contemplations and the resource page which gives you some supportive material.

On November 2, 1990, Florida Power and Light workers discovered the emaciated body of a small child hidden in the bushes of a wealthy Miami Beach home. The boy, dressed only in a lollipop-decorated T-shirt and a soiled diaper wrapped in brown packing tape, had been beaten, starved, and systematically tortured. He weighed just eighteen pounds. This is part one of the story of how a mother's resentment turned deadly.VICTIM PROFILE:Lazaro Figueroa was born September 18, 1987, into what should have been a life of comfort. His father, Fidel Figueroa, was a well-connected drug dealer who kept his family in a lavish penthouse overlooking Biscayne Bay. But fate intervened before Lazaro ever drew breath. Just two days after his birth, his father was executed in a gangland-style shooting outside a Miami riverfront bar. The murder was never solved. From that moment forward, Lazaro became the target of his mother's displaced rage, blamed for the loss of everything she had.THE CRIME:Ana Maria Cardona's abuse of Lazaro began shortly after he was returned to her custody from foster care in late 1988. Over the next eighteen months, she systematically starved, beat, and confined her son in conditions the Dade County Medical Examiner would later call the worst child abuse he had ever witnessed. Lazaro spent weeks locked in closets and tied to beds. His arm was broken and left untreated, eventually becoming fixed at a ninety-degree angle. His two front teeth were knocked out. Cardona wrapped duct tape around his diapers to avoid changing them, leaving his skin raw with bedsores. On October 31, 1990, Cardona beat Lazaro with a baseball bat, fracturing his skull. She then dumped his dying body in the bushes of a Miami Beach mansion and fled the state with her girlfriend, Olivia Gonzalez, stopping at Disney World before their arrest.THE INVESTIGATION:Miami Beach police initially could not identify the battered child, dubbing him Baby Lollipops after his T-shirt. Detectives conducted door-to-door interviews in English and Spanish and distributed flyers throughout the community. The break came when a neighbor who had occasionally cared for Lazaro recognized him from police bulletins. The investigation led detectives to Ana Maria Cardona and Olivia Gonzalez, who had fled to central Florida. Both women were arrested within weeks. Gonzalez eventually testified that Cardona had called Lazaro the son of the devil and blamed him for her descent from riches to rags.CURRENT STATUS:Ana Maria Cardona has been convicted of first-degree murder three times. Her first two death sentences were overturned by the Florida Supreme Court on procedural grounds. In 2017, she was convicted for the third time and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Olivia Gonzalez served fourteen years for her role in Lazaro's abuse and has since been released.RESOURCES:Learn more about this case at https://www.mythsandmalice.com/show/obscura/Support Obscura: https://www.patreon.com/obscuracrimepodcast/Our Sponsors:* Check out Chime: https://chime.com/OBSCURA* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code OBSCURA for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/obscura-a-true-crime-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Episode Description: Kick off 2026 by decluttering your mind and marriage! In this episode, we explore how cluttered beliefs create misery in relationships and share 14 destructive marriage myths backed by research from experts like John Gottman, Murray Bowen, David Schnarch, and Carol Dweck. Learn healthier alternatives to foster deeper connection, reduce resentment, and build a fulfilling partnership. Perfect for couples seeking healthy relationship tips, toxic belief deconstruction, and marriage advice grounded in science.Keywords: toxic marriage beliefs, declutter your marriage, healthy relationship tips 2026, Gottman marriage research, Bowen family systems theory, Schnarch intimacy advice, Harvard happiness study relationships.The 14 Destructive Beliefs & Healthier Alternatives"My spouse should make me happy / complete me." Faulty due to external locus of control leading to lower satisfaction (Australian Study). Alternative: "My spouse is a companion in my happiness—I am responsible for my own emotional well-being.""If they really loved me, they'd know what I need without me saying it." Mind-reading expectations cause conflict (Mind-Reading Study; ResearchGate PDF). Alternative: "Love includes clear, kind communication about my needs and feelings.""A happy marriage means we never fight or have conflict." Gottman's research shows 69% of issues are perpetual (Gottman Institute). Alternative: "Conflict is an opportunity to understand each other better and grow closer through repair.""My partner should change to fix our problems." Satisfaction driven by perceptions, not partner change (PNAS Study). Alternative: "I can only change myself. Leading by example often invites positive shifts in my partner.""Disparate sexual desires mean we're incompatible." Normal in all relationships per Schnarch's "sexual crucible" (Crucible Institute; Psychology Today). Alternative: "Differences in desire are normal and offer growth opportunities.""Keeping score of who does more is fair and necessary." Breeds resentment; generosity boosts satisfaction (

In this talk, Kodo reflects on Faith in Mind as a teaching on living with uncertainty and relinquishing judgment, comparison, and fixed views. Drawing on Dōgen, early Buddhist teachings, and reflections from contemporary teachers, she explores how practice shifts us from self-centered thinking into direct awareness, where impermanence is lived rather than conceptualized. Through sustained meditation, ethical living, and sangha engagement, we gradually loosen the grip of the small self and discover a boundless, compassionate mind capable of meeting life's difficulties with clarity, purpose, and care for others. ★ Support this podcast ★

2025 was a transformative year. It was the final Orthopreneurs Summit. It was the birth of Ortho Vanguard. And it was a year full of raw, powerful stories from orthodontists who are pushing the boundaries of what's possible in our profession—and their lives.In this special Year in Review episode, I take you back through the most-watched, most talked-about moments from the podcast in 2025. From ranching cattle and printing aligners, to starting practices during COVID, building international clinics, and learning leadership from bees, these aren't just highlight reels—they're a reminder of why we do what we do.Whether you missed these episodes or want to hear them again with fresh ears, this recap is a perfect way to end your year—and fire you up for 2026.QUOTES"2025 wasn't about workflows or aligners or business strategies. 2025, in my opinion, was about people and their stories—the risks they took, the resilience, their creativity, and their drive to build things that go far beyond the walls of their practices."— Dr. Glenn Krieger"Just know that doing this podcast is such a labor of love. And I will never, ever, ever forget all the thanks that each and every one of you give me for telling me you listen to this podcast. So thank you from the bottom of my heart."— Dr. Glenn KriegerKey Takeaways- Intro & 2025 Recap (00:00)- 1

Tim sits down with Max Bennett to explore how our brains evolved over 600 million years—and what that means for understanding both human intelligence and AI.Max isn't a neuroscientist by training. He's a tech entrepreneur who got curious, started reading, and ended up weaving together three fields that rarely talk to each other: comparative psychology (what different animals can actually do), evolutionary neuroscience (how brains changed over time), and AI (what actually works in practice).*Your Brain Is a Guessing Machine*You don't actually "see" the world. Your brain builds a simulation of what it *thinks* is out there and just uses your eyes to check if it's right. That's why optical illusions work—your brain is filling in a triangle that isn't there, or can't decide if it's looking at a duck or a rabbit.*Rats Have Regrets**Chimps Are Machiavellian**Language Is the Human Superpower**Does ChatGPT Think?*(truncated description, more on rescript)Understanding how the brain evolved isn't just about the past. It gives us clues about:- What's actually different between human intelligence and AI- Why we're so easily fooled by status games and tribal thinking- What features we might want to build into—or leave out of—future AI systemsGet Max's book:https://www.amazon.com/Brief-History-Intelligence-Humans-Breakthroughs/dp/0063286343Rescript: https://app.rescript.info/public/share/R234b7AXyDXZusqQ_43KMGsUSvJ2TpSz2I3emnI6j9A---TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Introduction: Outsider's Advantage & Neocortex Theories00:11:34 Perception as Inference: The Filling-In Machine00:19:11 Understanding, Recognition & Generative Models00:36:39 How Mice Plan: Vicarious Trial & Error00:46:15 Evolution of Self: The Layer 4 Mystery00:58:31 Ancient Minds & The Social Brain: Machiavellian Apes01:19:36 AI Alignment, Instrumental Convergence & Status Games01:33:07 Metacognition & The IQ Paradox01:48:40 Does GPT Have Theory of Mind?02:00:40 Memes, Language Singularity & Brain Size Myths02:16:44 Communication, Language & The Cyborg Future02:44:25 Shared Fictions, World Models & The Reality Gap---REFERENCES:Person:[00:00:05] Karl Friston (UCL)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNYWi996Beg[00:00:06] Jeff Hawkinshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VQILbDqaI4[00:12:19] Hermann von Helmholtzhttps://plato.stanford.edu/entries/hermann-helmholtz/[00:38:34] David Redish (U.

As we close out the year, this holiday replay of Overpowering Emotions focuses on helping kids reflect on how far they've come and set resilience intentions for the year ahead without pressure, perfectionism, or overwhelm. Dr. Caroline talks about why small victories matter, how to help kids notice their own growth, and how to set one or two realistic intentions that actually stick. You'll hear how to make these conversations feel collaborative instead of corrective, how to invite kids into the process as leaders of their own growth, and how adults can act as supportive consultants rather than fixers.

In this powerful spiritual talk, Rev. Lee Wolak explores the truth that value is a self-perceived trait, not something the world assigns to you. Your self-worth sets the tone for how life responds. When you understand that value is an exchange of energy, rewarded through authentic service to others, everything changes, your confidence, your abundance, and your impact. This talk blends Zen wisdom, Science of Mind principles, self-worth, consciousness, and spiritual empowerment to help you stop outsourcing your value and start living from it.

Episode 381 reframes Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich for sales professionals, reviewing Chapters 1–3 to show how thought, desire, and faith create predictable sales results. Andrea Samadi connects these timeless principles to practical steps—how to set burning goals, build unwavering belief through repetition, and transfer certainty to buyers. Listeners will get actionable frameworks (a five-step belief plan and the six steps to impress desire) and a clear roadmap for aligning mindset with sales execution, plus a preview of the next episode continuing the series. Welcome back to our final series of SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Connecting Back to Our 6-Part Think and Grow Rich Series (2022) For today's EP 381, we are connecting back to our 6-PART Series from 2022[i], where we covered the well-known book, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, to make 2022 our best year ever. Today we will cover: ✔ Chapter 1: The Power of Thought: A 5 STEP Plan to Improve Sales (Outer World) by Improving Your Thoughts (Inner World) ✔ Chapter 2: Desire With a 6 STEP Plan to Achieve ANY Goal ✔ Chapter 3: Faith With 3 Ways to Build Unwavering Faith That Will Change Your Life Back in 2022, we didn't just read Think and Grow Rich—we lived inside it as we launched 2022. Over a 6-part podcast series that began the beginning of January 2022, we walked through this book chapter by chapter, not as theory, but as a personal operating system for growth, performance, and results. This series will always be special for me, as I had heard that my mentor, who inspired me to study this book, Bob Proctor, became ill while I was writing the last episode in the series PART 6. He passed away before it was released, and I'll always remember this episode series, connected to the many people, globally, that he inspired through his work. At the time, the focus of our 6 PART Series was broad. We covered: Personal development Mindset mastery Vision, purpose, and belief We covered the BASICS of this book that Bob Proctor studied for his entire lifetime (over 50 years) that can be applied to whatever it is that you want to create with your life. Today, we are going to look at this timeless piece of knowledge, through a new lens. What we're covering today—Think and Grow Rich for Sales—is not new material. It's the application of this series, towards a specific discipline. You could apply this book to any discipline, but this one, I have wanted to cover for a very long time. How the 6-Part Series Maps DIRECTLY to Sales Mastery Here's the reframe that matters: Every principle we covered in 2022 becomes a sales advantage when applied correctly. In order for me to have gained this understanding, I have to give credit, where credit is due here. I would not have been able to cover our 2022 series without following Paul Martinelli's yearly reviews[ii] of this timeless Think and Grow Rich book that I started to follow in 2019, and continued every year until 2025 when he covered popular Science of Getting Rich book. It was through Paul's explanations, and line by line interpretations, that I finally began to not only READ this book, (from start to finish) but started to INTEGRATE the concepts into my life. I highly encourage following his work, as he continues to host many free webinars, where he gives away knowledge, with no pressure at all to purchase anything from him. I know why he does these webinars. It's not only to help others, but something magical happens when you give back to others, without expecting anything in return. When we covered this 6 PART series, back in 2022, TEACHING these concepts, it took me to another level of understanding, where I realized that this book is not meant to be read just once, but read over and over again, every year, as we all work on whatever it is we are working on, or want to master. This is a living, breathing body of knowledge and is there for all of us, year after year, as we refine our own inner mastery, and move step by step closer to our goals. Albert Einstein explained this concept well when he said that “if you can't explain it to a six-year-old you don't understand it yourself” and this is because teaching something will clearly show you where you have gaps in your own understanding. I'll never forget when I got to PART 6 of the book review, I noticed my book had no notes after around chapter 13. I began studying this book in my late 20s, and was very interested in the subconscious mind (chapter 12) but not at all interested in the brain (chapter 13) at this time, so I actually stopped reading the book here. I knew I never did finished reading this book (until I had to teach it) which explains a lot when it comes to the commitment to complete something. In order to teach something, we must first of all understand it ourselves. But when we LIVE it, and EMBODY what we are teaching (like Paul Martinelli has done) and what I am striving to do, it takes the words in each chapter to greater heights. So with gratitude to Paul Martinelli, who has created a valuable Sales Training Program, based on this timeless book, here is my attempt at covering Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich book, for the Sales Professional, and I couldn't have produced this episode, without Paul's teachings. Let's now look at the first 10 important chapters from Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, through the lens of making our 2026 our Best Year ever, as well as to connect each principal for the salesperson. And you don't need to be in sales for these principles to work for us. Think and Grow Rich for Sales How Inner Mastery Becomes Sales Results Inspired by Think and Grow Rich Through a modern neuroscience + sales lens Chapter I: The Power of Thought Applied to Sales Why Sales Outcomes Begin in the Mind Core Idea: Sales performance is a reflection of expectation and belief first, not effort alone. What you think and believe about your ability, your product, and your outcome directly determines how you show up—and how others respond to you. Sales Applications Your internal dialogue sets your sales ceiling “Hoping” for results programs hesitation and inconsistency Expectation + emotion = outcome Listener Takeaway You don't get the sale you want. You get the sale you expect—the one you truly believe you can achieve. You get the sale you expect. The one you actually believe you can achieve. REVIEW OF CHAPTER I — “The Power of Thought” Edwin C. Barnes: The Man Who Thought Himself into Partnership with Thomas Edison In Chapter I of Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill introduces us to Edwin C. Barnes, a man who achieved something extraordinary—not through money, connections, or credentials—but through the power of his thought. Barnes held a single, unwavering vision: to work with Thomas Edison—not for him, but with him. This was an audacious goal. Barnes did not know Edison personally. He lacked money, influence, and even the funds to comfortably pay for the train fare to New Jersey. Yet none of these obstacles altered his decision. Hill explains that Barnes did not wish for this partnership. He decided it would happen. When Edison later recalled their first meeting, he described Barnes standing before him looking like an ordinary tramp—but said there was something unmistakable in the expression of his face: “There was something in the expression of his face which conveyed the impression that he was determined to get what he had come after.” (Chapter I, p. 2, TAGR) Edison did not see wealth, polish, or preparation. He saw initiative, faith, and the will to win—and that was enough. Barnes brought no money to the table. No résumé. No formal value proposition. But he carried something far more powerful: a clear vision, unwavering belief, and a level of certainty that Edison could feel. Hill later writes that Barnes' “bulldog determination” and persistence with a single desire was destined to mow down all opposition and bring him the opportunity he sought. Barnes did not retreat when months passed and nothing happened. He did not say, “What's the use?” He did not downgrade his goal to something more “reasonable.” He held the vision until reality caught up with it. Why This Matters for Sales To understand why Edison trusted Barnes, we must understand something critical: Thought carries frequency. Belief has energy. Certainty is felt long before it is spoken. Edison did not evaluate Barnes based on where he was. He responded to where Barnes knew he was going. Barnes was already operating on the frequency of partnership—not employment. And Edison recognized it. “When one is truly ready for a thing, it puts in its appearance.” (Chapter I, p. 3, TAGR) Barnes was ready. Putting Chapter I into Action for Sales Look at the image in the show notes illustrating levels of frequency of thought—where the physical, intellectual, and spiritual worlds intersect like the colors of a rainbow. Think of each level as a different radio station. To hear the station you want, you must tune your mind to that frequency. If you receive your 2026 sales goal and your immediate thought is: “There's no way I can do this,” then that is the frequency you are broadcasting. You are not tuned to the level where that goal exists. You cannot reach a destination using the same level of thinking that created your current results. This is why Marshall Goldsmith's principle holds true: What got you here won't get you there.[iii] The Key to Chapter I: Unwavering Belief Napoleon Hill makes this unmistakably clear: “When a person really desires a thing so deeply that they are willing to stake their entire future on a single turn of the wheel to get it, they are sure to win.” (Chapter I, p. 2, TAGR) Barnes staked his future on belief. Sales excellence requires the same commitment. A 5-Step Sales Application Framework to Apply Chapter 1 STEP 1 When your sales goal is set, ask yourself honestly: Do I believe I can achieve this? STEP 2 If belief is present, create a clear, actionable plan—and commit to following it consistently. STEP 3 If belief is not present, seek out someone who has already achieved the result. Borrow their certainty. Follow their guidance exactly. STEP 4 Once belief is established, take daily action. There is no wishing—only disciplined effort backed by belief. STEP 5 Monitor not just results, but your level of belief. When belief wavers, behavior follows suit. When behavior wavers, results disappear. Final Thought for Chapter 1 Edwin C. Barnes did not succeed because he was lucky. He succeeded because he thought differently—and held that thought long enough for reality to align with it. He jumped to an entirely new frequency with this belief. Sales mastery begins the same way. Not with tactics. Not with scripts. But with the Power of Thought Backed by Belief. Chapter II: Desire From Wanting Sales to Demanding Results Core Idea: Desire must be emotionally charged and specific. Sales Application: Turning vague quotas into emotional targets Why clarity eliminates hesitation Selling with intention vs need Listener Takeaway: Vague goals create vague results.   REVIEW OF CHAPTER II: DESIRE — The Starting Point of All Achievement Chapter II of Think and Grow Rich brings us to the engine behind every meaningful result: Desire. Napoleon Hill makes this unmistakably clear: “All achievement begins with an idea.” But not every idea becomes reality. Only ideas fueled by burning desire become reality. Hill describes Edwin C. Barnes' desire as something very specific: “It was not a hope. It was not a wish. It was a pulsating desire which transcended everything else. It was definite.” (Chapter II, p. 19, TAGR) Barnes did not hope to work with Thomas Edison. He did not wish it might happen someday. He expected it. At the time, there was no evidence this partnership would ever exist. Barnes and Edison were not in conversation. There were no guarantees. No proof. No visible path. And yet Barnes committed to the idea anyway. That's the nature of true desire: It moves before evidence appears. Going from where you are now to where you want to go is always a process—and at the beginning of that process, desire often feels irrational, private, even uncomfortable to say out loud. That doesn't make it wrong. It makes it powerful. Why This Matters for Sales In sales, desire drives behavior. You don't need to know how you'll hit your goal at the beginning. You only need to know what you want and why you want it. The “how” always reveals itself after this commitment. This is something my mentor Bob Proctor emphasized constantly. When I moved from Canada to the United States in 2001, I had no clear roadmap. I didn't know exactly how it would work. But I had clarity of desire—and that was enough to begin. The way was shown… Along with obstacles. Many of them. That's always how it works. Obstacles are not signs you're off track. They are part of the process. Desire and Sales Frequency What does DESIRE have to do with SALES SUCCESS? Here's the key sales translation: Hesitation does not exist at the same frequency as certainty. It's this certainty (or burning desire) that we will need. When desire is weak: You hesitate You soften your language You sell with need instead of intention When desire is strong: Clarity replaces doubt Energy becomes steady Certainty becomes transferable to those you are speaking to Ask yourself honestly: Do I have the same burning desire in my sales goals that Edison saw in Barnes' eyes? Because others can feel it—just as easily as they can feel when it's missing. Desire radiates. Hesitation leaks. And buyers will respond accordingly. Burning the Ships Hill offers one of the most powerful principles in the book in this chapter on Desire: “Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to burn their ships and cut all sources of retreat.”(Chapter II, p. 21, TAGR) Barnes did this when he traveled to New Jersey to meet Edison. I did this when I left Toronto for the United States in 2001. There was no “going back if it didn't work.” Burning the ships forces alignment. And this connects directly to a later chapter: Decision. The Latin root of the word decision means “to cut.” When you decide, you cut off retreat. You look at your sales goal and see no acceptable outcome other than its achievement. That level of commitment changes how you show up every single day. The Six Steps to Achieve Any Goal (Chapter II) Next in this Chapter, Napoleon Hill outlines six steps designed to impress desire directly into the subconscious mind. Though written about money, (in the book) these steps apply to any goal, including sales. These are the steps I personally keep visible—and that leaders like American Businessman Grant Cardone practice daily. The Six Steps Write a clear description of what you want. You must know exactly where you're going. What is your sales goal? Decide what you're willing to give in return. There is no such thing as something for nothing. You will give up something of lower value to gain something greater. (I never understood this until I watched others with their achievements. Sometimes it's giving up time, or watching Netflix, or something like that. You give up something of a lower nature, to receive what it is that you want). Set a definite date. Desire without a timeline remains a wish. Create a clear action plan. Begin immediately—ready or not. Write the plan out in detail. Clarity strengthens commitment. Read it twice a day. As you read, see, feel, and believe yourself already in possession of the goal. (Chapter II, p. 23, TAGR) This sounds simple—but not easy. Most people won't do it consistently. That's why most people won't get these extraordinary results. Listener Takeaway Vague goals create vague results. Sales success begins the moment desire becomes: clear emotionally charged and non-negotiable Final Thought — Chapter II: Desire Desire is not motivation. It is not excitement. It is not ambition. Desire is commitment before evidence appears. When your desire is strong enough: hesitation disappears clarity sharpens certainty becomes visible And when certainty is visible, others respond to it. Sales does not reward the most talented. It rewards the most committed. Everything that follows in Think and Grow Rich rests on this foundation. If desire is weak, nothing else works. If desire is strong, the rest becomes possible. Chapter III: Faith Certainty Is the Real Close Core Idea: Faith is belief made visible through certainty. Sales Application: Why buyers borrow certainty from the salesperson Confidence vs arrogance How belief softens objections Listener Takeaway: Buyers don't borrow certainty from products. They borrow it from you.   REVIEW OF CHAPTER III: FAITH How Do We Develop Faith? Napoleon Hill defines faith clearly and practically: “Faith is a state of mind which may be induced, or created, by affirmations or repeated instructions, through the principle of autosuggestion.” (Chapter III, p. 46, TAGR) Faith is not something you wait for. It is something you train. We develop faith by following the six steps outlined in Chapter 2 of Think and Grow Rich: writing our goals and reading them aloud every day—twice a day—until the idea moves from the conscious mind into the non-conscious mind through autosuggestion. This is a process. If you have never read your goals out loud before, it may feel uncomfortable at first. When I started, I remember closing my office window, worried my neighbors might think I was crazy. In the beginning, the words can feel awkward and forced. But with repetition, something changes. Your words begin to flow more easily. Your tone becomes confident. And eventually, what once felt unnatural starts to feel true. Our goals begin living with and through us. Hill instructs us to read our goals: “As if you were already in possession of them.” (Chapter III, p. 48, TAGR) A simple way to do this is to begin with the statement: “I am so happy and grateful now that…” and then state your goal clearly—whether it's a sales target or any other objective you are working toward.   Faith, Autosuggestion, and Something Bigger This is often the point where people bring their own beliefs into the process. If you believe—as I do—that there is something greater than yourself at work in the world, you will feel it here. Hill called it Infinite Intelligence. Others may call it God, Spirit, or Universal Intelligence. Hill wrote: “Faith is the element, the ‘chemical' which, when mixed with prayer, gives one direct communication with Infinite Intelligence.” (Chapter III, p. 49, TAGR) Regardless of what you call it, the experience is the same: faith grows when belief is repeatedly impressed upon the mind. And this is critical: We must have faith in our dreams, not in our doubts.   Faith Applied to Sales In sales, faith shows up as certainty. Buyers do not buy certainty from products. They borrow it from the salesperson. This is where many people get confused. Faith is not arrogance. Arrogance is loud and brittle. Faith is calm, grounded, and steady. When you believe in: yourself the value you bring and the outcome you're guiding someone toward your certainty becomes transferable. And when certainty is present, objections soften. Not because you argue them away—but because belief replaces resistance. How Faith Becomes Unwavering To build unwavering faith, Hill's principles point us to three realities: You must move through the Terror Barrier of Fear. Faith grows when your conscious and non-conscious minds begin to align. Fear appears first—but it does not get the final word. Faith strengthens through repetition. Writing and repeating your goals daily through autosuggestion gradually reshapes belief. Faith grows fastest when focused on one clear idea. Pick one goal. Take action toward it. Each step builds self-confidence, self-awareness, and self-esteem. Over time, belief takes hold. One day, you'll look back at the early version of yourself—the one who hesitated, doubted, or felt unsure—and you'll realize how far you've come. I talk about this idea often. It's like adding red food color drops into a cup of water. In the beginning, it's hard to see any change in the color of the water. But over time, with persistent action, the glass of water eventually changes color. And you'll look back and be grateful you moved forward past fear. Listener Takeaway Buyers don't borrow certainty from products. They borrow it from you. Final Thought — Chapter III: Faith Faith is not pretending. It is not positive thinking. And it is not blind optimism. Faith is certainty trained through repetition. When belief becomes strong enough, it changes how you speak, how you act, and how others respond to you. Sales closed do not happen at the end of the conversation. They happen the moment certainty is felt. And certainty begins inside you. REVIEW OF CHAPTERS I–III The Foundation of Sales Mastery To review and conclude this special review of Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, through the lens of a salesperson, we covered the first three chapters of Think and Grow Rich that form a complete inner foundation. Together, they explain why sales success begins long before tactics, scripts, or strategies ever matter. Before there is action, there is belief. Before belief, there is desire. And before desire, there is thought. Napoleon Hill does not begin this book with techniques. He begins with identity and inner alignment. For sales professionals, these chapters explain why results are not random—and why performance is always an inside-out process. Chapter I — The Power of Thought Why Sales Outcomes Begin in the Mind Chapter I introduces the central premise: Thought is creative. Through the story of Edwin C. Barnes, Hill shows us that success begins when a person decides what they want and holds that thought with unwavering persistence—long before evidence appears. Barnes did not hope to work with Thomas Edison. He decided it would happen. Despite having no money, no relationship, and no visible path, Barnes carried himself with such certainty that Edison felt it immediately. Edison did not respond to Barnes' circumstances—he responded to Barnes' state of mind. Sales Application: Sales performance reflects what you expect, not what you wish for. Your internal dialogue: sets your confidence level shapes your tone determines whether you lead or hesitate You don't get the sale you want. You get the sale you expect—the one you truly believe is possible. Chapter II — Desire From Wanting Sales to Demanding Results If thought sets direction, desire supplies the fuel. In Chapter II, Hill makes a critical distinction: Desire is not hope. It is not wishing. It is not motivation. True desire is emotionally charged, specific, and definite. Barnes' desire to work with Edison was not casual or negotiable. It was what Hill called a burning desire—so strong that Barnes was willing to stake his future on it. Sales Application: Desire determines behavior. When desire is vague: goals feel optional hesitation increases selling comes from need When desire is clear and emotionally anchored: confidence sharpens clarity replaces doubt certainty becomes visible Vague goals create vague results. Sales success accelerates the moment desire becomes non-negotiable. Chapter III — Faith Certainty Is the Real Close Chapter III explains how desire becomes believable: through faith. Hill defines faith not as blind belief, but as a trainable state of mind, developed through repetition and autosuggestion. Faith is belief made visible through certainty. By writing goals clearly and reading them aloud daily—as if already achieved—belief moves from the conscious mind into the non-conscious mind. Over time, certainty replaces doubt. Sales Application: Buyers do not borrow certainty from products. They borrow it from the salesperson. Faith shows up in sales as: calm confidence (not arrogance) steady tone authority without pressure When faith is present, objections soften—not because they're argued away, but because certainty dissolves resistance. How Chapters I–III Work Together These chapters are not separate ideas. They form a sequence: Thought sets direction Desire creates commitment Faith produces certainty Without thought, there is no aim. Without desire, there is no momentum. Without faith, there is no follow-through. Sales mastery begins here—not with what you say, but with who you are being when you say it. Final Integrated Insight (Chapters I–III) Sales does not reward effort alone. It rewards clarity, commitment, and certainty. When: your thoughts are aligned your desire is definite and your faith is trained your results begin to change—often before your strategy does. Because at the highest level, sales is not a transaction. It is the transference of emotion. And the primary emotion is certainty. With gratitude to close out our review of Chapters 1-3 of Think and Grow Rich dedicated to the salesperson, we bring our credit to Paul Martinelli, who has helped me to understand not only the entire book, for our first review, but to now take this book, and apply it for success in the sales industry.

In the final part of our exploration of Jon Kabat-Zinn's Nine Attitudes of Mindfulness, Mike and Mark slow things down—intentionally. This episode is an invitation to rest, to release the constant pressure to improve, and to rediscover the power of presence without agenda.Jon opens the conversation by reframing rest itself. True rest, he suggests, is not collapse or avoidance, but a no-agenda way of being—where nothing needs to be fixed, achieved, or optimised. From this place, mindfulness naturally deepens.The episode then explores non-striving, one of the most misunderstood attitudes of mindfulness. Jon reminds us that growth doesn't come from forcing outcomes, but from allowing life to unfold as it already is. When striving drops away, awareness has room to do its work.From there, Jon reflects on gratitude and generosity, encouraging us to meet each moment with appreciation and to be generous not just with things—but with our time, attention, and energy. These attitudes shift mindfulness from an inward practice to a way of relating to the world.As the episode unfolds, Jon beautifully weaves all nine attitudes together through the lens of heartfulness, showing how mindfulness is not a collection of techniques, but an integrated way of living with presence, compassion, and care.In the closing bonus reflection, Jon turns to mind-wandering and the rehabilitation of the present moment, a cornerstone of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Rather than seeing distraction as failure, he reframes it as an opportunity—each noticing becomes a gentle return to now.This episode matters because it offers an antidote to burnout culture. Instead of pushing harder, it invites us to trust awareness, soften our effort, and remember that the present moment is already enough.

This final week of the year carries a sober, luminous tone. Mind, faith, and healing are tested against reality, mystery, and emotional truth. What remains after illusion falls away is not certainty—but something more trustworthy.Mon, Dec 29 — Mercury in Sagittarius square Saturn in PiscesBeliefs meet consequence. Words meet responsibility. This is a moment to discern which truths can be lived—and which were aspirational but ungrounded. Sobriety sharpens wisdom.Reflection Question: Which beliefs am I being asked to mature, simplify, or release as this year closes?Thur, Jan 1 — Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesVision blurs, certainty dissolves. This is not confusion for its own sake, but an invitation to loosen the grip on meaning-making and listen for subtler guidance. Not all truth arrives in words.Reflection Question: Where can I loosen my grip on meaning and allow deeper truth to emerge without forcing clarity?Fri, Jan 2 — Chiron turns direct in AriesAfter months of inner review, the work of healing identity turns outward again. This marks the final full retrograde chapter of Chiron in Aries—an initiation nearly complete.Reflection Question: What kind of courage now feels rooted rather than reactive?Sat, Jan 3 — Full Moon at 13° Cancer (Sun conjunct Venus & Mars in Capricorn | Moon conjunct Jupiter in Cancer)Emotional truth swells against structures of duty and ambition. What nourishes you seeks recognition—not as indulgence, but as essential fuel for the road ahead.Reflection Question: What does emotional nourishment ask me to protect and prioritize as I step into the year ahead?Podcast Poem: How the Light Comes by Jan RichardsonSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

As Jesus was teaching, He is challenged by a lawyer on what must be done to inherit eternal life. Pointing to the Scriptures, Jesus has the man answer correctly, yet the way is impossible to achieve. Because God loves us while we were still sinners, we are now able to love Him and others out of the very love we receive by grace. Having accomplished salvation for us, we no longer live to earn God's love but have it limitlessly as our identity.

I will grant peace to their families. 2. They will be enlightened about the Divine Mysteries. 3. I will console them in their pains, and I will accompany them in their work. 4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my Divine Son or the sanctification of their souls. 5. I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives. 6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death—they will see the face of their mother. 7. I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.
