Eat 10,000 Calories... 365 Days A Year! That's Right... You read the title correctly.   But there is always an "IF" thrown somewhere in there... IF you want to work out like the greatest Olympian Of All Time, Michael Phelps. The greatest body builders use to wake up at 2:00AM to drink a protein shake. One of those guys said by the time the competition for Mr. Universe rolled around, we were exhausted from eating.   What IF we devoured the word of God and prayed 365 Days a year like we were preparing for the Olympics? What IF we told people about the good news of Jesus Christ with the enthusiasm of a trained Olympian Athlete?   How would it look if we believed that God had made us, the students, volunteers, staff, our friends and family to do great things, bigger than we ever believed that we were capable of? Jesus said, "Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father" - John 14:12   What IF? _______________________________ Looking for a new student ministry resource? You can read my book “Burn Up Not Out: A Student Ministry Fire Builder's Guidebook” here: https://amzn.to/3PtBTIy Listen to more episodes from the Youth Worker On Fire Podcast here: https://bit.ly/3saDyYq _______________________________ EPISODE CREDITS Email us at: youthworkeronfire@gmail.com Hosted by: Doug Edwards Theme Song: "The One and Only" by The 808 : Listen to more at https://bit.ly/3FTYIAJ Intro/Outro Voiceover: Michael Helms : https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelTheSoundGuy  Edited by: Secret Roots Music House

Have you ever been disappointed with a team member's performance, only to later realise you never actually communicated your expectations clearly? You're not alone. Unclear expectations are one of the biggest performance killers, and as leaders, we're often guilty of setting an invisible standard without articulating it. In this episode of The Leaders Kit Bag, I share three simple but powerful tips to ensure your team understands exactly what is expected of them: Make the Invisible Visible – Clearly articulate expectations, focusing on outcomes rather than micromanaging the process. Give your team autonomy while setting clear deliverables. The Commitment Clarification Exercise – When assigning tasks, ask team members to repeat back the expectations in their own words. This prevents misunderstandings and ensures alignment. Be Clear, Not Cryptic – If you need to course-correct, be empathetic but direct. Avoid “ruinous empathy,” where leaders soften feedback so much that it becomes vague and unhelpful. Instead, provide laser-focused guidance that allows people to improve. By implementing these three strategies, you'll remove ambiguity, empower your team, and create an environment where people can truly excel. Tune in now to ensure you're not unconsciously setting your team up to fail. Get Instant Leadership Support with Ben AI Struggling with communication, delegation, or team performance?

Along the way, we share powerful stories from families we've worked with, lessons from years of practice, and candid reflections from our own parenting journeys.

Jeannette talks to Fabien Chesnais, the General Manager of the General Manager of Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island. Fabien shares his journey in the hospitality industry, discussing the evolving role of a general manager and the importance of understanding operations, technology, and team dynamics. He reflects on the challenges of opening a hotel, the significance of creativity in food and beverage offerings, and the changing demands of customers, particularly regarding sustainability and dietary preferences KEY TAKEAWAYS The role of a general manager in hospitality has shifted from primarily being a PR representative to requiring a diverse skill set that includes commercial acumen, technological proficiency, and a deep understanding of operations across all departments. Effective general management involves not only operational knowledge but also strong people management skills. Motivating and developing a team is crucial, as the hospitality industry is fundamentally a people-centric business. Opening a hotel is a complex process that involves meticulous planning, team hiring, system implementation, and navigating regulatory requirements. Successful openings often require flexibility and proactive problem-solving to meet deadlines and expectations. Modern customers are increasingly focused on sustainability, health, and unique experiences. This shift necessitates that hotels adapt their offerings, including food and beverage options, to meet diverse dietary needs and preferences. BEST MOMENTS "To become a good general manager, you need to understand the operation. You need to understand each department in depth. And this takes time." "I think there is definitely a sense of care. When customers choose a hotel, they want to make sure that this hotel is sustainable and takes care of its people." "Food is a non-ending story. We sleep one time, we eat three times." "I think there is a lot of, you know, let's try it, let's be different, let's be aggressive. But there is no fear here." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

Previously Yuichi was Head of Business Development, Misaki Capital, Senior Managing Director/Global Head of Sales (International Business) Nikko Asset Management, Managing Director Tokio Marine Asset Management, Senior Analyst/International Equity, Mizuho Trust and Banking, Portfolio Manager International Equity, Chuo Mitsui Trust and Banking Summary Yuichi Takayama's leadership journey offers valuable insights into managing diverse teams across different cultures. His experience spans Japan, the UK, and Australia, where he navigated the challenges of leading both Japanese and foreign employees while adapting his leadership approach to different organizational and national cultures. Takayama's first leadership experience was in the UK, where he built a business development team from scratch. He found hiring foreign employees challenging, as Western candidates were often skilled at self-presentation but not necessarily at the job itself. To overcome this, he used a detailed questioning approach, forcing candidates to provide specific examples of their experience. This analytical method, rooted in his Japanese background, helped him distinguish genuinely capable candidates from those who were simply good at interviews. Leading a multicultural team in the UK required clear, direct communication. Takayama adapted by using simple and precise language to avoid misunderstandings. He also recognized the importance of setting clear standards and expectations, as differing cultural norms could lead to discrepancies in performance and accountability. Establishing a unified goal helped keep the team aligned despite their diverse backgrounds. After 15 years abroad, returning to Japan was a cultural shock. He found the Japanese corporate environment rigid, with excessive meetings and limited discretion in decision-making. Despite his senior position, he felt constrained compared to his leadership role in the UK, where he had more autonomy. However, he saw an opportunity to apply his international experience by encouraging his Japanese team to be more proactive and adventurous—traits less emphasized in traditional Japanese corporate culture. Motivating employees differed between regions. In Europe, financial incentives were key, and managing expectations was crucial to retaining talent. Some employees left when their ambitions weren't immediately realized. In Japan, younger employees in his team were eager to work internationally but were often cautious. By fostering a culture of initiative and rewarding proactive behavior, he encouraged risk-taking in a traditionally conservative business environment. Trust-building was another critical aspect of his leadership. In Japan, personal connections were less common in business relationships, so he made a conscious effort to share personal stories and insights to create rapport. Conversely, in the UK, where personal discussions were more common in informal settings, he focused on keeping business conversations structured and informative. Ultimately, Takayama believes leadership is about setting a clear vision and direction. His ability to adapt his leadership style to different cultural contexts while maintaining core principles of transparency, trust, and motivation was key to his success.    

80 summers is about how many most individuals have to live... Let that sink in!   So, would you rather spend those summers hoarding your stuff and time only for yourself... or would you rather promote kindness and goodwill to your family, neighbors and the world around you in Jesus name?   What matters in eternity is who we've fed, clothed, and shared the salvation message with. What counts is serving our family whether we feel like they deserve it or not. The most important command is to love God. His most important ask of us is to share the good news with those closest to us and to every other part of the world. His Ask is that we love the less fortunate at home and around the world. He says he takes note of our selfless acts.   In Matthew 6, the author quotes Jesus as saying, worrying doesn't add a single minute to our lives... WOW!   Our biggest rewards are after this life in 80 Summers! Our comfort comes from the Lord who is our Shepherd. King David writes in Psalm 23 that in those 80 summers, He will give us comfort and lead us to safety and nourishment. That He will also protect us if we follow Him.   Only 80 Summers... how will you spend yours?   _______________________________ Looking for a new student ministry resource? You can read my book “Burn Up Not Out: A Student Ministry Fire Builder's Guidebook” here: https://amzn.to/3PtBTIy Listen to more episodes from the Youth Worker On Fire Podcast here: https://bit.ly/3saDyYq _______________________________ EPISODE CREDITS Email us at: youthworkeronfire@gmail.com Hosted by: Doug Edwards Theme Song: "The One and Only" by The 808 : Listen to more at https://bit.ly/3FTYIAJ Intro/Outro Voiceover: Michael Helms : https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelTheSoundGuy  Edited by: Secret Roots Music House

This week's show brought to you by: MAS Iron Outside of training deficiencies, low iron is one of the most common reasons for poor results during workouts and races.  Recent research indicates that almost 56% of male runners and 86% of female runners suffer from an iron deficiency that severely hampers performance. The problem with eating iron-rich foods or supplementing with traditional iron supplements is that iron is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. In fact, only about 25% of dietary iron found in animal sources is absorbed while 17% or less of the iron from plant sources is absorbed.

In this episode of the Leading in Dentistry Podcast, Dr. Wes Eggett reviews the TEACH leadership model, specifically regarding its importance in setting expectations and maintaining accountability within a dental team. He emphasizes addressing gaps between expectations and reality to understand why plans may not be working as envisioned. Dr. Eggett introduces the Six Sources of Influence framework from Crucial Learning, known for their work on Crucial Conversations, to help diagnose and influence team behavior effectively.Motivational and ability problems can be divided into personal, social, and structural areas. Dr. Eggett explains how to use this framework to diagnose issues and positively influence behaviors, using case acceptance in dental practices as an example. He provides detailed strategies for improving case acceptance by addressing personal motivation and ability, social motivation and ability, and structural motivation and ability, demonstrating how using multiple sources of influence can significantly enhance results. This practical approach aims to help dental leaders create a more effective and supportive environment for their teams.VitalSmarts Research on Six Sources of InfluenceMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/matrika/funk-style - License code: KUYOIZCBFCF1FOMP https://uppbeat.io/t/roo-walker/bolt - License code: RS1AU6Y5DGD5A3H8.

Daunting? Hell yes. Listen to our guide which shows you what "tricks" you need to have and how to use them with your crew. Timestamps 00:30 2 essential calls What's expected of you - steer the boat to the best possible route. The straightest route and when you steer, make as tight a turn as you can without disrupting the rhythm. Think of the river as if it was a road and you are driving a car. In general you want to be in the middle - judge the distance between the tip of the blades and the bank on both sides of the boat to see if you are positioned well. Going round a corner to your right side - the deeper water is on your left side where the current has scoured out the bank (a slip off bank on the right and an undercut cliff on the left). The fastest water is nearer the cliff. So position your boat towards the left hand bank and get one third of the river between the boat and the left hand bank, two thirds of the river on your right hand side. After the corner you're on the straight - re-position the boat so you are in the middle 50:50 of the river on each side of the boat. Rowing against the stream - it's the opposite Steering is likely what you won't have problems with as you are an experienced steerer. 05:00 Motivating the crew Have two calls - technical call - pressure call (working harder). What motivates your crew and what they are skilled at doing. The pressure call will increase your boat speed. Your job is to work out what the right technique call is that supports the pressure call. Speak to the coach and crew - what are the aspects of the stroke technique which they find harder to do when they're tired. You only need ONE technical call. Use the calls in combination - pressure followed by technique or vice versa. If you do the technique call first - improve the technique over 10 strokes and then follow that up with a pressure call so they hold onto the technical aspect while they add the pressure. Or do pressure first to increase the boat speed and then use the technique call to maintain the higher boat speed afterwards. You must practice this in training. 08:30 Landmarks When to use these calls in the race? Landmarks like a building, a bridge or a bend in the river are good markers. If the landmark includes a steering change - you have to do the call before you start to steer because the boat slows when you steer. Get increased speed before the steering manoeuvre. As you finish the steering, do another call as you are straight and have passed the landmark. Get the crew to look at the bridge / landmark so they can see it moving into the distance. 10:30 Quarter the race You have to know what's the beginning and end of each section. Have a focus for each quarter. 1 - off the start and into race rhythm 2 - maintain boat speed, good run & efficient movement 3 - make it hard on the competitors to get past you. 4 - push for the finish Other things - overtaking / being overtaken. Build these into your race plan. "Walking" the crew past another crew - what to say. 13:45 Speed as a horizontal line Your average speed in the race - the boat speed will change. Your job is to take the crew back up to the horizontal ideal speed line. A good cox can motivate and encourage. Do not talk all the time - silence for 5-10 strokes gives the crew greater focus and clarity of purpose when you do speak. Give the crew enough time to do the things you have called - 10 strokes minimum. You must be able to judge how many strokes it takes the crew to cover a certain distance. Look at a landmark and estimate the stroke count - practice on your home course against a buoy or tree. You must be accurate to decide when to start the call as you lead into landmarks and the finishing sprint.

Lost Kids of the Sudan: The War and Her Motivating Story of Escaping Trauma. Rebecca Deng’s journey from the war-torn villages of South Sudan to becoming a U.S. citizen and international advocate is nothing short of inspiring. As one of the 89 Lost Girls of Sudan, her story represents the resilience of those who have faced unimaginable horrors and still found a way to thrive. While much attention has been given to the Lost Boys of Sudan, Rebecca’s experience sheds light on the often-overlooked stories of the girls who survived similar atrocities. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. The interview with Rebecca Deng is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website and platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Outbreak of War and the "Lost Kids of Sudan" The Second Sudanese Civil War, one of the longest civil conflicts in history, began in 1983 when the Sudanese government imposed Sharia law and revoked the autonomy of the southern region. This decision reignited tensions that had been simmering since the First Sudanese Civil War (1955–1972). The effects were catastrophic: mass displacement, famine, atrocities committed by all sides, and an estimated two million deaths. The war ultimately led to the creation of the Republic of South Sudan in 2011. Children bore the brunt of this brutal conflict. Many were victims of violence, flogging, and even placed in leg-irons. Schools were destroyed, and thousands of young boys and girls were forced to flee their homes. While the "Lost Boys of Sudan" became widely known for their perilous journey to Ethiopia and later to Kenya, the "Lost Girls of Sudan," like Rebecca Deng, faced equally harrowing experiences, compounded by gender-based violence and exploitation. Lost Kids of the Sudan: The War and Her Motivating Story of Escaping Trauma. Read the supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. Rebecca’s Early Life and Escape Rebecca Deng, a member of South Sudan’s Dinka tribe, was just four years old when her village was attacked. Forced to flee from gunfire, she embarked on a terrifying journey that would span years and continents. Alongside other children, she faced hunger, illness, and life-threatening predators, both human and animal. Their path to safety was fraught with dangers, from militia attacks to natural threats and disease. By the early 1990s, Rebecca and other survivors reached the Kakuma Refugee Camp in northern Kenya. Life in Kakuma was harsh; the camp was overcrowded, resources were scarce, and the trauma of war lingered. For the girls, the challenges were even greater. Many were fostered into families for protection, a practice rooted in South Sudanese culture. However, this often led to further exploitation, with some girls being sold into marriage at a young age to secure resources for their foster families. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. Life in the Kakuma Refugee Camp Rebecca spent eight years in Kakuma, where she began to rebuild her life despite the overwhelming odds. Education became a beacon of hope. Though resources were limited, she seized every opportunity to learn, determined to rise above her circumstances. Her resilience and dedication eventually led to her being among the 89 Lost Girls who were resettled in the United States in 2000. Lost Kids of the Sudan: The War and Her Motivating Story of Escaping Trauma. The resettlement process was not easy. Unlike the Lost Boys, who were recognized as unaccompanied minors and prioritized for resettlement, many Lost Girls were overlooked. Their integration into foster families made their journey to the U.S. even more remarkable. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. A New Beginning in the United States At the age of 15, Rebecca arrived in the United States, a land vastly different from the refugee camp she had known for most of her life. The transition was challenging, she had to learn English, adapt to a new culture, and navigate the complexities of American society. But Rebecca’s determination never wavered. She embraced every educational opportunity and worked tirelessly to build a new life. Rebecca became a U.S. citizen, marking a significant milestone in her journey. Her experiences fueled a passion for advocacy, particularly for women and children affected by war. She pursued higher education and eventually authored her memoir, "What They Meant for Evil: How a Lost Girl of Sudan Found Healing, Peace, and Purpose in the Midst of Suffering." Check out the show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms.

It is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Balancing Personal Life and Advocacy Despite her busy schedule, Rebecca has built a fulfilling personal life. She is married and has three children, residing in Maryland. Balancing family life with her advocacy work is no small feat, but Rebecca approaches both with the same resilience and dedication that have defined her journey. Her story is a testament to the human spirit’s capacity to overcome even the most harrowing circumstances. The trauma of her early years remains a part of her, but it does not define her. Instead, it fuels her mission to support others who have faced similar adversities. The Ongoing Crisis in Sudan Rebecca’s story is not just a reflection of the past but a mirror to the present. The ongoing conflict in Sudan continues to displace millions and claim lives. According to the United Nations, over 6.6 million Sudanese have been internally displaced, with more than 2 million fleeing to neighboring countries like South Sudan, Chad, Kenya, Uganda, Egypt, and Ethiopia. The U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations estimates that casualties could be as high as 150,000. Rebecca’s advocacy highlights these ongoing issues, reminding the world that the plight of refugees is far from over. Lost Kids of the Sudan: The War and Her Motivating Story of Escaping Trauma. Social Media and Spreading the Message Rebecca’s story has reached a global audience through various platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and the interview with her on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast which is available for free on their website in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms.

Pick your… WORD FOR THE YEAR! Yes, one word. A friend of mine has asked me and many other friends to pick their “word” for quite a few years now. What is that one word that you want to define the upcoming year? Here are a few changes you can make to go from negative talk to positive and proactive thinking: Impatient…Patient Unprepared…..Always Prepared  Not Confident….Confident Transactional….Relational Doesn't Follow Up…Follows Up Doesn't Advertise…Advertises Doesn't Ask For Referrals…Asks For Referrals Break the Link between… - Thought To Action: Waiting on God is also an action. Keep showing up and move forward as God keeps the doors open. Each time you think about what you are to do or want to do next… take Action again.  - Stop Trying To Solve Problems That Are Made Up In Your Mind And Not Real: Stop being your own worst enemy. Start being your own best cheerleader. People need a leader who knows where he or she is going. Confident, but not arrogant. Strong, but not angry… confident. - It's Ok To Be Upset And/Or Depressed: It's not ok to stop doing what you are suppose to do. If you have those negative and painful emotions, you still need to do anyway. - Your Mind Hears What You Say: It's meant to protect you and serve you. If you say “this hurts too much” or “I hate this”, your mind will try to protect you and help you quit. Its job is to protect you. If you tell your mind, “I can get through this pain. I need to be strong enough to be tougher than the pain, because the pain is there to make me stronger.” Jesus said it,” if we tell a mountain to move it will move if we do not doubt.” God made our minds to work for us. Not against us. Will the cost of reaching the goal or goals be worth the pain and possible destruction on the way? Make sure your goals are in alignment with God and the scripture. Will you be able to keep your character in check? When Jesus commands His disciples to go to the people of Israel announcing that “the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matt. 10:7), He gives them a warning and some advice: “Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.” (Matt. 10:16) There will never be a perfect time to give, serve, lead, guide, or love. _______________________________ Looking for a new student ministry resource? You can read my book “Burn Up Not Out: A Student Ministry Fire Builder's Guidebook” here: https://amzn.to/3PtBTIy Listen to more episodes from the Youth Worker On Fire Podcast here: https://bit.ly/3saDyYq _______________________________ EPISODE CREDITS Email us at: youthworkeronfire@gmail.com Hosted by: Doug Edwards Theme Song: "The One and Only" by The 808 : Listen to more at https://bit.ly/3FTYIAJ Intro/Outro Voiceover: Michael Helms : https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelTheSoundGuy  Edited by: Secret Roots Music House

Self-criticism is NOT a good long-term motivation strategy. Let's talk about how to motivate yourself with self-compassion instead. Tune in to learn... Why you might be feeling de-motivated A technique called “10 WHYs” to find intrinsic motivators How to employ self-discipline (but not in the way that you think…) Tools to find and create motivation through a lens of SELF-LOVE Remember: You don't need to wait until you're perfectly motivated to start taking action.

Maye Musk, Elon Musk's mother, is facing backlash after defending her controversial stance on having children regardless of financial circumstances. During a December 15 appearance on Fox & Friends with Rachel Campos-Duffy, the 76-year-old asserted that raising children doesn’t have to be expensive, suggesting there are affordable ways to start a family. Her comments align with sentiments previously expressed by her son Elon, who has fathered 12 children. The Tesla CEO has often warned about the dangers of declining birth rates in the U.S., calling it a greater threat to humanity than climate change.

Notes: The Pete and Leona story - What will people say about you at your funeral? "They changed my life and the lives of my entire family." Tough love out of 100% care for you. Be tough AND supportive. Don't lower your standards. High standards. High support. 10 to 25 - Find the right trigger for motivation. Find out what they care about. They need meaning and significance. They want status and earned respect. Are children less afraid of their parents now than they used to be? Dan Gilbert calls this the "illusion of moral decline." It's been happening for 75 years. The Parental Nagging Study - A common tactic adults use to get teens to “pay attention.” Research shows that nagging triggers the emotional part of a teen's brain, shutting down their ability to think logically. They're not ignoring you on purpose—they're simply wired to tune out. A better way? Speak calmly and neutrally to engage the part of their brain that handles planning and decision-making. This opens the door to real conversation. Satya Nadella's Model, Coach, Care philosophy at Microsoft. This is the opposite of Jack Welch's rank and yank style at GE. Remember, the stack ranking methodology limited innovation and stopped people from taking any type of risk. We want to model the right behavior, coach others, and ensure they know we care for them so they feel the support they need to take risks, sometimes fail, get back up, and work to innovate. Theory X = Rank and yank. It stifled innovation for fear of failure and getting fired. Theory Y = No stack rankings. Built on connecting leaders with their people. Still high standards and demanding. Followed the "Model, Coach, Care" methodology. This is what's happening today at Microsoft. Be a place where people want to work. The Mentor's Dilemma - Stef Okamoto - honest, direct, and supportive. The "mentor's dilemma" refers to the challenge of balancing honest, critical feedback to young people while still maintaining their motivation and self-esteem, as this age group can be particularly sensitive to perceived criticism and may easily feel discouraged or disrespected if not approached carefully; essentially, it's the struggle between pushing someone to improve and potentially damaging their confidence by being too harsh. The mentor mindset: A mentor mindset can be adopted by using practices such as validating young people's perspectives, asking them questions, and holding them to high standards. Questioning – Kate, a mom of two who lives in Chicago, whose oldest son was a sophomore came home one night from a party drunk and high. Kate responded with a combination of yelling and prosecuting… She instigated an interrogation and not a two-way conversation. Instead of interrogating, get curious. They had a reason for what they did. Figure out why. What's your plan? Ask questions to get them to own their thinking and share it with you. Advice - Don't accept some perceived path. Be reliable, show up, do the work, and ask for more work. Add surplus value. Whatever you're being paid, focus on delivering 10x more value. Find a way to do that and your employer will beg to give you a raise and promote you.
