God's Armor: A Battle Plan for YOUR Life! Introduction to the Armor of God (00:00-00:28) The speaker introduces the topic of the armor of God, emphasizing its importance for every Christian. Questions whether the armor is just a metaphor or something to actively apply in daily life. Life's Spiritual Battles (00:28-01:02) Acknowledges struggles like temptations, fears, doubts, and sickness. The Bible provides a battle plan, with Ephesians 6:10-11 instructing believers to put on the full armor of God to stand against the devil's schemes. Breakdown of the Armor of God (01:02-02:13) Belt of Truth (John 8:32): Holds everything together; God's truth keeps believers grounded. Breastplate of Righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21): Protects the heart; righteousness comes from Christ, not self. Shoes of the Gospel of Peace (Isaiah 52:7): Provides stability and confidence in spreading the gospel. Shield of Faith: Blocks attacks of doubt, fear, and anxiety. Helmet of Salvation (Romans 8:1): Protects the mind from doubts and attacks on identity. Sword of the Spirit (Matthew 4:4): The Word of God is the only offensive weapon; Jesus used scripture against Satan. Applying the Armor of God (02:13-02:44) Knowing about the armor isn't enough; it must be actively used. Encourages daily prayer, scripture meditation, and studying God's word for spiritual preparedness. Power of Memorizing Scripture (02:44-03:17) Using scripture effectively in battles against temptation. Cites examples of people who have memorized large portions of the Bible and encourages memorization of key verses. Living Righteously (03:17-03:48) Actions should align with God's truth. Loving God and others should naturally lead to righteous behavior. Standing Firm in Faith (03:48-04:22) Encourages deep study of the armor of God and its significance. Listeners are invited to reflect on their experiences and seek further understanding. Reading of Ephesians 6:10-18 (04:22-04:51) Full passage on the armor of God is read aloud. Emphasizes the spiritual battle against evil forces, not just against people. Call to Prayer and Action (04:51-05:29) Encourages listeners to put on the armor daily and remain in constant prayer. Invites engagement: asks for prayer requests and offers personal prayers for viewers. Ends with a call to share, subscribe, and stay connected. Closing Encouragement (05:29-end) Motivates believers to actively walk in their faith and spiritual protection. Reminder to trust in God's strength and remain equipped for spiritual battles.

In this episode of Stronger Sales Teams, Ben Wright shares his insights on creating sales incentive programs that really work. With years of experience working with startups, fast-growing businesses, and established companies, he offers practical tips on designing pay strategies that align with company goals, boost team morale, and deliver outstanding sales results. This episode is a goldmine of advice on shaping sales incentive structures for businesses at any stage – whether you're just starting out, in the growth phase, or fully established. Key Takeaways: Startups, growth-phase, and mature businesses should each design remuneration packages that reflect their specific needs and growth stages, balancing base salaries, commissions, and bonuses. Sales compensation should weigh both revenue and gross margin growth, particularly in growth and mature businesses, ensuring compensation drives both short-term and long-term value. Offering uncapped commissions in growth-oriented environments can attract top sales talent and incentivize exceptional performance. As businesses mature, shifting focus to non-monetary benefits like career progression and unique perks can be vital to retaining top sales talent. Recognizing different sales roles and competencies allows for flexibility in pay structures, enabling businesses to attract and retain high performers or “career gorillas.” Time Stamps: 0:00 Intro 1:58 Types of Business Framworks In Rumeneration Strategies 3:30 For Star Up Business 6:50 For Growth Driven Businesses 12:35 For Mature Businesses 16:00 Other Frameworks 22:24 Recap 23:18 Outro Rate, Review, & Follow If you're liking what you're hearing, make sure you ‘follow' the show wherever you listen to your podcasts…so you never miss an episode!

Do politicians really understand what drives voters—or are they relying on flawed assumptions that could shape democracy in troubling ways?A groundbreaking new study by University of Calgary political scientist Jack Lucas, “Politicians' Theories of Voting Behavior,” reveals striking gaps between how politicians perceive voters and how voters see themselves. While politicians often hold a cynical, “democratic realist” view of voters, citizens are far more optimistic about their own behavior. But who's right—and does it even matter?

Episode 170: As the holiday season approaches, many are feeling the pull to give back to their communities. But what truly motivates us to be generous, and does the impact of our donations matter more than our reasons for giving? Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada discuss the science behind the joy of giving, exploring research that shows donating time or money can boost mood and health. "Much of philanthropy is motivated by the ways in which we feel good from helping others out,” Kyte said. The hosts also talked about the balance between financial contributions and volunteering, noting that both forms of giving play important roles. Later, the conversation shifts to the concept of "Effective Altruism," which prioritizes high-impact global donations over local community support. Kyte argued this view overlooks the vital role of strong social capital and healthy local communities in enabling effective worldwide aid efforts. "You don't want civil society to fall apart," Kyte said. "You always have to pay attention to what the conditions are of the local community." The podcast also explores the choice between public and anonymous donations, with Kyte noting that visible giving can inspire others, while anonymity allows donors to avoid unwanted attention. About the hosts Scott Rada is a digital strategist with Lee Enterprises, and Richard Kyte is the director of the D.B. Reinhart Institute for Ethics in Leadership at Viterbo University in La Crosse, Wisconsin. He is also the author of "Finding Your Third Place: Building Happier Communities (and Making Great Friends Along the Way)."

They discuss how Mountain Outpost is leading the way with livestreams and why he decided to buy Ultrarunning magazine. They also discuss how the sport has changed and how Jamil's love of bringing new people into the sport inspires him to keep pushing boundaries with event coverage.  28:06 Zoë interviews writer and researcher Leigh Cowart, author of Hurts So Good: The Culture of Pain on Purpose, about the psychology that drives people to seek out uncomfortable experiences intentionally. They dive into how Leigh's trip to Big's Backyard Ultra inspired them to write about ultrarunners and what they learned about pain from hanging out with ultra athletes.

The last third of the book of Acts shows Paul in chains. After being falsely accused of starting a riot and desecrating the temple, Paul will face imprisonment, two assassination attempts, a shipwreck, and then house arrest. And yet, Paul knew all of this would happen. The Spirit consistently warned him that going to Jerusalem would lead him straight into hardship, but he's still told to go anyway. Paul's submission to the will of God models for us what it looks like to allow our goals, plans, and outcomes to be formed by Jesus alongside our habits, schedules, and lifestyles. By surrendering our will to God's will, we too can build courage in the face of adversity and faithfulness in the midst of suffering.

The Washington Roundtable: Susan B. Glasser, Jane Mayer, and Evan Osnos discuss the final stretch of Kamala Harris's Presidential campaign, including a recent media blitz on podcasts and television shows. The Vice-President has never been entirely comfortable with the interview format. “She doesn't ruminate and reflect,” the staff writer Evan Osnos says. “I think it's the self-protection that comes with being aware of people who are always going to doubt her capacity to make history.”  Osnos's deeply reported profile of Vice-President Kamala Harris, “The Ascent,” has just been published. Plus, the panel deconstructs the revelations in Bob Woodward's new book, “War,” about Donald Trump's relationship with the Russian President Vladimir Putin.This episode was updated after the publication of Osnos's piece on the Harris campaign.This week's reading: “The Harris-Trump Endgame Is On: Is It Time to Panic Yet?,” by Susan B.

How does this motivation reshape itself as one matures and changes their pursuits in life? The guys go on to each share their life experience in this mindset arena.

You may have heard the ads, asking for what are effectively human guinea pigs, people to help make medical research breakthroughs. They're after volunteers to take part in clinicial trials where they test new emerging medicines to see they're safe and effective for wider use. Often they come with payments that can run into the thousands. So is it the money that motivates people to sign on or something else and how risky is it? Dr Chris Wynne the Chief Scientific Officer for the company NZ Clinical Research spoke to Lisa Owen.

Ask David Disturbing Intrusive Thoughts-- where do they come from?  Alone and Liking It--is that Okay? Help with those darned Shoulds, and more! The following show notes were written before the show. The actual live discussions will vary somewhat from the answers you will find here, which simply included David's email exchanges with those who asked the questions. . Rodolfo asks about disturbing and unwelcome intrusive thoughts. Brittany asks if it's okay to enjoy / prefer being alone. John, from Ireland, asks, “Help! I'm shoulding on myself again! What can I do? Please do another podcast on Should Statements.” Rodolfo asks about disturbing and unwelcome intrusive thoughts.   1. Rodolfo asks about ADHD & Intrusive Thoughts Hello Dr. Burns, my name is Rudy. First and foremost, your writings and podcasts have been life changing for me. You're AMAZING! I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and I started experiencing intrusive thoughts around November of last year. I thought I had OCD, but apparently intrusive thoughts are a common companion in ADHD. What would be the best course of action in defeating them? How would I apply TEAM to them? David's Response In all my books, like Feeling Great, I outline a step by step approach to writing down and challenging thoughts. You can also listen to the podcast on the four models for treating anxiety. Can we use your great comment on a podcast, and add your question to our next Ask David podcast? Can you send me an example of the types of intrusive thoughts you're having? Sometimes writing them down and challenging can be helpful, but need to see what we're talking about. Best, david Rodolfo responds Thank you for the swift response! Ok, so writing down my intrusive thoughts, regardless of their nature, and challenging them. I don't, however, know which method/route to challenge them with. I have Feeling Great, so I will read through it again. I will also check out the podcasts. My intrusive thoughts have been disgusting violent acts involving my wife and son. ***I HAVE NO INTENTIONS OR DESIRE TO COMMIT ANY OF THEM***. I've had images of my wife getting shot, not necessarily by me. Sometimes I'll see my arms give out and my son will fall. I've seen my wife sitting down, and she gets hit in the back of the head. When they appear, I begin to freak out immensely because they are the complete opposite of who I am and what I want to do, which is protect them. I know I'm not doing something right when it comes to your methods because I still freak out. David Responds Thanks! Although disturbing, this is a very common and often easily treatable OCD type of problem. Best, david Rodolfo responds What a relief. I thought I was going insane here! I would be honored if you all covered it in a podcast. All I listen to in my car now is the Feeling Good podcast! David Responds Often, intrusive OCD thoughts reflect suppressed problems / feelings people have, especially when the person is exceptionally "nice," and used to sweeping feelings under the rug, so to speak. I cannot treat you in this medium, obviously, but I'm wondering if you have some negative feelings, like anger or frustration, toward your wife and child? When these are "squashed," they can come out indirectly, disguised as anxious thoughts and feelings. This is called the Hidden Emotion Technique, which you can look up using the search on my website, if curious, or read about it in my book, When Panic Attacks. Best, david 2. Brittany asks if it's okay to enjoy / prefer being alone. Hi Dr. Burns, I was listening to your podcast on self-acceptance, and it was really interesting hearing the results. I like how you said that just because we accept something about ourselves doesn't mean we aren't still working on it. I think people confuse that a lot. One thing I've accepted about myself is that I really do enjoy being alone. I think in the past I would try to find a buddy in uncomfortable situations like the first day of work or orientation or going to a baby shower alone etc. but now I find that I am most comfortable when I'm not included with everyone else. However, I think it can come across as off putting to some. Sometimes I get the feeling they see me excluding myself as rejection to them. That's not my intention and nobody's ever actually said that but it's a thought that pops up. Just wondered if you think this form of acceptance is good or bad? I mean it's been good for me. Just maybe it's bad for others? -Brittany David's response This is a cool question and nice comment, too, about our podcast. Can we read this on a podcast and use it for an Ask David? Personally, I am trying to say "no" more often when asked to do things with other people, and sometimes it's hard. But if I don't say no, I get way too much on my plate and can't keep up! Warmly, david Brittany's reply That makes perfect sense to me. I've kind of taken the position where I don't really want to make more friends because I feel like I'm already falling short with spending enough time with my cats and everyone else. Let alone time for myself. David's reply Exactly! Our culture has this myth that's it's somehow impossible or immoral to enjoy just being with oneself! David   3. John, from Ireland, asks, “Help! I'm shoulding on myself again! What can I do? Please do another podcast on Should Statements.” Hi David and Rhonda! Love the podcast and the work you folks are doing! I listen to the podcasts regularly and you are both bringing such great benefits to the world! I would love to hear another podcast on should statements. I've been going through a pretty bad and extended period of anxiety and depression in recent months and have been really trying to challenge my thoughts without much success. I'm addicted to shoulds unfortunately and beat up on myself relentlessly. I've tried to do a cost benefit analysis and the motivation piece is a huge part of the benefits side that is keeping me stuck. I really want to give up my should statements, they are making my life a misery. But I'm finding I don't want to let go of the motivation piece. I have given a sample below. I'd love to know if there were further steps/techniques I could use aside from the CBA to address the benefits and the perceived motivation piece so I can fully let go of the shoulds! Thanks so much both, John from Ireland Negative Thought: “I should have plans on a Saturday.” 99% SHLD, ER, SB, MF, DP. Benefits Lets me know when I'm not performing to the standard I set for myself Shows me my passion/goal in life for doing fun exciting things Motivates me to move to make plans, scolds me until I do so. Keeps me vigilant that I'm aware of my shortcomings Reminds me of the value of being socially connected, meeting and having fun with friends. It's easy, it's familiar, it's such a habit. (process resistance) Costs Emotional Cost. Beats me up relentlessly, makes me feel depressed, anxious and lowers my self-esteem. Reinforces perfectionistic beliefs Counterproductive in terms of motivation, makes me feel so low, Huge interpersonal cost, feel isolated alone. Prevents intimate connections Not able to be present or flow in a conversation, quality of conversation/connection drops Self-fulfilling prophecy, if I'm telling myself that then I ignore other possibilities. Benefits 40 / Costs 60 David's reply Feeling Great is now available in the app store, and you can try it for free. It also has a class called “Your PhD in Shoulds.” I'll add your question to our next podcast list for an Ask David. Since you've told me you can't yet get the app in Ireland, I'll send you the script of that lesson. Thanks! David John continues the exchange Hi David, Thank you so much for taking the time to correspond today and thank you so much for all the work you're doing for free. The world would be a better place with more Rhonda's and Dr. Burns' in the world. One of the things that has brought me some peace in the last few weeks is going for a long walk in the evening after work listening to your podcasts! I have attached a DML that I've been working on to give a bit more context. I made some inroads on that original should statement, however, as you can see from the DML more shoulds keep popping up. I have identified the Self Defeating Beliefs that resonate with me at the bottom of the document. I'm working hard to find healthy acceptance, I know this is key for me. I'm not entirely sure a lot of the time what exactly I should be accepting. That I'm a flawed person with many defects, just like everyone else maybe? To give some further context and without overburdening you with too much detail: I feel my anxieties are one of the main parts of my problem and I would love to get over these. I feel defective that I'm not resilient enough for the challenges of life. I have fears mainly around people, fear of letting people down, fear of being judged or rejected and just feeling different to others I suppose. I've struggled with recurring anxiety and some depressive periods from when I was a young child (likely biological - my dad has the same issue). I have strong feelings of defectiveness and not being up to standard compared to my peers. I have a very busy corporate finance job where I've been working very long hours over an extended number of weeks and months. I don't' love my job, fell into it really. Could be a hidden emotion thing going on. I started working from home more and more in recent months as my workload increased and my anxiety and mood really started to dip as work took over my life. I started to get really burned out in April. A lot of why I enjoyed the job previously was having fun with my teammates but that has become impossible in recent times due to everyone's workload. I do CrossFit which is probably an extreme form of exercise and between that and work I fell into some kind of perfectionism where I couldn't really find joy out of anything, aiming for higher and higher achievements. This brought on tons of shoulds and all or nothing thinking and self-blame, I think. My dad, who had been doing well for a good few years fell into a deep depression and anxious state around April time too and has been in hospital for a number of weeks and our family is trying to support him through this. We're finding the standard of mental health care in Ireland really really poor unfortunately. I find his issues quite triggering for me a lot of the time and I'll believe I'm defective because he is defective and there is nothing I can do about it. Dad is entirely dependent on medication to get him out of his slump and has a bad case of do-nothingism. He is beating himself up relentlessly too and I gave him a copy of Feeling Good to read but he hasn't looked at it at all. I have just turned 40 and I'm still single, so I feel like I'm letting my family down for not being emotionally able for a relationship or kids or be a better brother/son. I know I'm probably being harsh here as they say the opposite, but I feel I could/should be doing more. I have probably fired way too much detail at you, so I'll stop there! Thanks so much again!

This season, every episode of OMG focuses on a question that directors really need to answer. OMG is written, produced, narrated and scored by Matt Fullbrook.   TRANSCRIPT: Question #20:  What *really* motivates our CEO? If you have the patience to follow me on LinkedIn, you may have noticed me complaining loudly about executive compensation a couple of times in the past year. I think it's totally broken, and nobody seems to have any interest in fixing it. The fact is, we have no idea what a CEO is actually worth to a firm and we have no idea how different compensation approaches and amounts cause CEOs to behave. And in the meantime, the obsession with benchmarking CEO pay against other CEOs is designed specifically to cause pay to go up forever, thus exacerbating the wealth gap…which we actually DO know is provably bad for everybody. And part of the reason why I find this so infuriating is that the core of the solution to these problems starts with a really simple question, which happens to be the subject of today's episode. Let's imagine that it turns out that our CEO likes money. Likes it A LOT! And that's convenient, because we happen to be paying them in money and not, say, salamanders. So that's great. Except what if there's something that might motivate our CEO even more than money (or salamanders). What if it turns out that if we gave them Friday afternoons off they would jump out of bed every morning and work 10x harder, even if we paid them half as much money? Or what if they would literally give up EVERYTHING to dance the Macarena with Taylor Swift? We could craft some huge and ambitious 5-year operational goals and spend that time convincing Tay Tay to get to work on jumping and turning 90 degrees to her left. People are complicated, and so are their interests and motivations. What could you learn by exploring this question?

What do you want the people in the audience to do? Prepare, don't wing it. Be ready. Practice Sound like you. Don't try to sound like Steve Jobs or someone else. When you're on stage or presenting at work, sound like you. Be genuine. Ideas for persuading others: Make it easy for others to say yes Social proof - Show that others are doing it (this is why companies put the logos of their customers on their website) Know when to appeal to the head or the heart. Typically, it's the heart and emotion when speaking to those who work for you. And it's your head when speaking to your boss. This is nuanced though and not black and white. Remember, there are two types of people: Those who make their boss's life easier or harder. Be the former. Pitching... Miles Teller in the TV show The Offer. Instead of trying to convince the mob boss to allow him to make the movie, he offered to show him the script and collaborate with him. The best pitches invite others to be co-creators. The motivation framework: Autonomy: The desire to direct our own lives. Giving people more control over their work or tasks can enhance motivation and performance. Mastery: The urge to get better at something that matters. People are more motivated when they see progress and can develop their skills. Purpose: The feeling that what we do is important and has meaning. Connecting tasks or jobs to a larger cause can be a powerful motivator. "If you're not confident, don't be self-deprecating." To Sell is Human - "We're all in sales... Convincing, cajoling, persuading." Make it easy for people to say yes... That's what the best salespeople do. Social Cues -- From Robert Cialdini - People look around for cues. That's why companies put logos of their customers on their websites. So others look and say, "Oh, they are with them, I guess we can be too." Know when to appeal to the head or heart. "When managing up, it's usually their head. When managing down, it's usually their heart." Processing fluency - Make it sticky. Memorable. Rhyme. Repetition. Repetition. Repetition.
