Podcasts about minimizing

Have you ever noticed how quickly you brush off something that was actually really hard? This instinct to minimize difficulty might seem harmless, but it shapes how connected you feel to yourself and how honestly you experience your life.   In this episode, I explore the habit of minimizing difficulties: why we dismiss or dilute how challenging something was after it's over and how this pattern disconnects us from ourselves. Whether it's downplaying a tough day or pretending a painful experience was "fine," this habit can quietly erode self-trust and emotional awareness. You'll learn how to recognize when you're glossing over your real experience and what changes when you start telling the truth about what was hard.    Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/197   Join the Habits on Purpose newsletter for extra tools, prompts, and stories between episodes: https://habitsonpurpose.com/

Ultra-processed foods have become central to the way we eat and to many of the challenges we face in public health nutrition. They dominate supermarket shelves, shape population diets, and often appear as the prime suspect in rising obesity and metabolic disease rates. But beyond the label itself, what exactly makes these foods problematic? Is it their nutrient composition, their texture and palatability, the rate at which we consume them, or the broader environments that make them so accessible and appealing? The debate around ultra-processed foods sits at the intersection of metabolic science, behaviour, and policy. It raises uncomfortable questions about how food systems evolved to prioritise convenience and profit, and what it might take to meaningfully change that trajectory. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Hall joins the podcast to examine the evidence from controlled feeding studies and population research, exploring what we really know about ultra-processed foods, overeating, and how we might begin to fix the food environment.

Building B2B analytics and AI tools that people will actually pay for and use is hard. The reality is, your product won't deliver ROI if no one's using it. That's why first principles thinking says you have to solve the usage problem first. In this episode, I'll explain why the key to user adoption is designing with the flow of work—building your solution around the natural workflows of your users to minimize the behavior changes you're asking them to make. When users clearly see the value in your product, it becomes easier to sell and removes many product-related blockers along the way. We'll explore how product design impacts sales, the difference between buyers and users in enterprise contexts, and why challenging the “data/AI-first” mindset is essential. I'll also share practical ways to align features with user needs, reduce friction, and drive long-term adoption and impact. If you're ready to move beyond the dashboard and start building products that truly fit the way people work, this episode is for you.   Highlights/Skip to:  The core argument: why solving for user adoption first helps demonstrate ROI and facilitate sales in B2B analytics and AI products  (1:34) How showing the value to actual end users—not just buyers—makes it easier to sell your product (2:33) Why designing for outcomes instead of outputs (dashboards, etc) leads to better adoption and long-term product value (8:16) How to “see” beyond users' surface-level feature requests and solutions so you can solve for the actual, unspoken need—leading to an indispensable product (10:23) Reframing feature requests as design-actionable problems (12:07)  Solving for unspoken needs vs. customer-requested features and functions (15:51) Why “disruption” is the wrong approach for product development (21:19)   Quotes:  “Customers' tolerance for poorly designed B2B software has decreased significantly over the last decade. People now expect enterprise tools to function as smoothly and intuitively as the consumer apps they use every day.  Clunky software that slows down workflows is no longer acceptable, regardless of the data it provides. If your product frustrates users or requires extra effort to achieve results, adoption will suffer. Even the most powerful AI or analytics engine cannot compensate for a confusing or poorly structured interface. Enterprises now demand experiences that are seamless, efficient, and aligned with real workflows.    This shift means that product design is no longer a secondary consideration; it is critical to commercial success.  Founders and product leaders must prioritize usability, clarity, and delight in every interaction. Software that is difficult to use increases the risk of churn, lengthens sales cycles, and diminishes perceived value. Products must anticipate user needs and deliver solutions that integrate naturally into existing workflows.  The companies that succeed are the ones that treat user experience as a strategic differentiator. Ignoring this trend creates friction, frustration, and missed opportunities for adoption and revenue growth. Design quality is now inseparable from product value and market competitiveness.  The message is clear: if you want your product to be adopted, retain customers, and win in the market, UX must be central to your strategy.” —   “No user really wants to ‘check a dashboard' or use a feature for its own sake. Dashboards, charts, and tables are outputs, not solutions. What users care about is completing their tasks, solving their problems, and achieving meaningful results.  Designing around workflows rather than features ensures your product is indispensable. A workflow-first approach maps your solution to the actual tasks users perform in the real world.  When we understand the jobs users need to accomplish, we can build products that deliver real value and remove friction. Focusing solely on features or data can create bloated products that users ignore or struggle to use.  Outputs are meaningless if they do not fit into the context of a user's work. The key is to translate user needs into actionable workflows and design every element to support those flows.  This approach reduces cognitive load, improves adoption, and ensures the product's ROI is realized. It also allows you to anticipate challenges and design solutions that make workflows smoother, faster, and more efficient.  By centering design on actual tasks rather than arbitrary metrics, your product becomes a tool users can't imagine living without. Workflow-focused design directly ties to measurable outcomes for both end users and buyers. It shifts the conversation from features to value, making adoption, satisfaction, and revenue more predictable.” — “Just because a product is built with AI or powerful data capabilities doesn't mean anyone will adopt it. Long-term value comes from designing solutions that users cannot live without. It's about creating experiences that take people from frustration to satisfaction to delight.  Products must fit into users' natural workflows and improve their performance, efficiency, and outcomes. Buyers' perceived ROI is closely tied to meaningful adoption by end users. If users struggle, churn rises, and financial impact is diminished, regardless of technical sophistication.  Designing for delight ensures that the product becomes a positive force in the user's daily work. It strengthens engagement, reduces friction, and builds customer loyalty.  High-quality UX allows the product to demonstrate value automatically, without constant explanations or hand-holding. Delightful experiences encourage advocacy, referrals, and easier future sales.  The real power of design lies in aligning technical capabilities with human behavior and workflow.  When done correctly, this approach transforms a tool into an indispensable part of the user's job and a demonstrable asset for the business.  Focusing on usability, satisfaction, and delight creates long-term adoption and retention, which is the ultimate measure of product success.” — “Your product should enter the user's work stream like a raft on a river, moving in the same direction as their workflow. Users should not have to fight the current or stop their flow to use your tool.  Introducing friction or requiring users to change their behavior increases risk, even if the product delivers ROI. The more naturally your product aligns with existing workflows, the easier it is to adopt and the more likely it is to be retained.  Products that feel intuitive and effortless become indispensable, reducing conversations about usability during demos. By matching the flow of work, your solution improves satisfaction, accelerates adoption, and enhances perceived value.  Disrupting workflows without careful observation can create new problems, frustrate users, and slow down sales. The goal is to move users from frustration to satisfaction to delight, all while achieving the intended outcomes.  Designing with the flow of work ensures that every feature, interface element, and interaction fits seamlessly into the tasks users already perform. It allows users to focus on value instead of figuring out how to use the product.  This alignment is key to unlocking adoption, retaining customers, and building long-term loyalty.  Products that resist the natural workflow may demonstrate ROI on paper but fail in practice due to friction and low engagement.  Success requires designing a product that supports the user's journey downstream without interruption or extra effort.  When you achieve this, adoption becomes easier, sales conversations smoother, and long-term retention higher.” —

In the UK one of the great global car brands is on the verge of bankruptcy this month due to a single cyber-attack with the consequence of a potential loss of 130,000 jobs. Jaguar Land Rover is seeking a government bail-out to survive. In this first of a series of seminars delivered from the founder of a cybersecurity company in the same city where Jaguar Land Rover is reeling from this attack, we will cover Four Deadly Sins of Cyber with the other 3 sins in a follow-up seminar:1. Sloth: Bloated legacy architectures and slow patch cycles, run very real risks of seeing their progress as "good enough" up until the very moment some major event proves it wasn't. We will look at how to focus on compartmentalization, and containment.2. Gluttony: Exponential expansion of networks and devices to serve the AI-masters leading to the Skynet moment. Cyber threats leverage connectivity to spread; contagion control comes from knowing how to control that connectivity.3. Greed: Insatiable desire to acquire the latest and greatest security software, in the belief that newer is better, irrespective of how it fits and is to be used. Not so in OT networks where few of those are fit for purpose. The aim for simplicity benefits the most important questions "what is where?", "what exactly is the threat?" and "where can we exert control of threats accessing critical resources?".4. Pride: Overconfidence and self-assuredness in the status quo, doing more of the same will be fine. How's that working out so far? Humans-in-the-loop: some method of controlling contagion is essential. Minimizing the loss remains mandatory. The second half of the seminar will cover three perspectives of a founder of a hardware cybersecurity innovator : 1. The need to look at RoI when deploying solutions, 2. How to frame CNI cyber solutions within SDG/sustainability/impact, and 3. Moving beyond code-jockeys – cyber career perspectives requiring skills in humanities (psychology, philosophy, etc.) to think differently. About the speaker: Stephen is an international corporate lawyer with expertise in complex M&A and tax efficient commercial transactions in the US, UK and emerging markets. He has been a general counsel for ultra-high net worth individuals and families as well as international law firms. He is focused on emerging technologies, including blockchain and cybersecurity. A natural manager, Stephen also isn't afraid to do the work that needs to be done in an efficient bootstrapped startup. He is also know for his avid community engagement and commitment to sustainability at all levels. Also a former military officer, Stephen is the 2IC of Goldilock - keeping 'selection and maintenance of the aim' front of mind.

Listen to today's podcast... Coffee has never been more popular, with an estimated 3 billion cups consumed every day. Caffeine can promote alertness, and it may decrease the occurrence of depression. However, sleep can be negatively affected by caffeine. It can create a never-ending cycle of reduced sleep, fatigue, and a need for increased caffeine consumption. Our sensitivity to caffeine and the impact on our sleep seems to be dependent on age, the amount of caffeine ingested at bedtime, and also on the amount of caffeine ingested over the whole day. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      So here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Coffee Day: Caffeine consumed close to sleep time has the greatest potential for sleep disruption, so be aware of how much caffeine you are consuming in a day and when. When stress is at its highest, it is advisable to cut back on caffeine. Caffeine abstinence for a whole day can improve sleep quality quickly, which is vital for being able to cope and ward off the negative impact of the stressful situation. Finally, while drinking caffeinated coffee in moderation can help to maintain adequate fluids, which can reduce fatigue, water is still considered to be more beneficial in rehydration and maintaining cognitive functioning.

This episode explores the halachos of caring for the dangerously ill on Shabbos. We learn why it is not only permitted but praiseworthy to act with urgency to save a life, even if unintended melachos are performed. Practical cases include rescuing children in danger, breaking doors, and feeding the sick when kosher food is unavailable. The Mishnah Berurah clarifies whether slaughtering an animal or giving non-kosher food is preferable, and how a patient's refusal to eat can affect halachic decisions. We also examine cooking wine with the help of a non-Jew, the principle of minimizing melacha (such as choosing the smaller cluster of figs), and why extra work beyond what is required should be avoided.ShabbosHilchos ShabbosPikuach NefeshDangerously Ill on ShabbosSaving a LifeMishnah BerurahShulchan AruchRefuah on ShabbosNon-Kosher Food for the SickShabbos and MedicineUrgency in Saving Lives

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott W. Luton and Deborah Dull welcome Will Mansard and Ahmed Arif of Bastian Solutions for a practical, field-tested conversation on retrofitting brownfield warehouses and the real cost of doing nothing. They frame retrofits as logistical projects first, unpack why so much existing space goes underutilized, and share how to minimize disruption while upgrading live operations. They discuss the playbook that works in the real world: start with discovery and reverse engineering when documentation is thin, build a phased mechanical plan, sequence electrical with quick-connect, preassembled components, and treat controls and software as the heart of the system using emulation and thorough testing. With rules one and two both being “get orders out the door,” they stress contingency planning, speaking the customer's language, and orchestrating equipment, controls, and software to avoid faults and bottlenecks.

In this episode, Phil revisits the influential book 'Silver Bullets' by Karl Rohnke, sharing key insights and play pointers that remain relevant in adventure education today. He emphasizes the importance of engagement, flexibility in rules, variety in activities, inclusivity in team selection, and self-competition, all aimed at enhancing the experiential learning process. Engagement in activities is crucial for effective learning. Flexibility in rules can enhance participation and enjoyment. Variety in activities prevents boredom and keeps participants engaged. Inclusivity in team selection fosters a sense of belonging. Self-competition encourages personal growth and motivation. Minimizing rules can lead to more dynamic and engaging activities. Bending rules can adapt activities to fit different groups. Avoiding repetitive activities maintains interest and excitement. Observation can be a valid form of participation. Karl Rohnke's principles continue to influence adventure education.

Sometimes, the truth doesn't arrive with fireworks. It shows up quietly...in the middle of the night...on your sofa.  In this episode, I read an excerpt from my new book, The Selfish Year - the moment I realized I couldn't stay in my marriage one second longer. The pain of staying had finally outweighed the fear of leaving.  We all have a 'sofa moment' - that still, undeniable instant when the life we've built no longer fits. Are you ignoring yours? Minimizing it? Or are you ready to hear it, and let it move you into action?  This is your invitation to stop pretending you don't know.  Pre-order The Selfish Year now, and step into the life that's waiting for you.  PRE-ORDER HERE

Maybe your drinking isn't/wasn't that bad, but does that mean it's good? If you don't truly face what you're doing, then how can you expect to change and move forward? In this episode, we dig into the psychological tricks we use to protect ourselves from the truth about our drinking- minimizing, rationalizing, and rewriting the past. I explain how cognitive dissonance, memory decay, and emotional self-protection keep us stuck in the cycle, and why excusing our behavior prevents real change. You'll learn what happens in the brain when we reframe harmful moments as one time occurrences, and how that keeps us from learning, growing, or getting sober for good.
