October 11, 1999 -- With the American League divisional Series between Boston and Cleveland tied at two games apiece, the Red Sox send Bret Saberhagen out to face Charles Nagy. In an eruption of runs, both starters find themselves out of the game by the third inning and the game tied at 8. With the season on the line, Sox manager Jimy Williams summons his ace, Pedro Martinez from the bullpen. The electrifying move sent shockwaves through Jacob's field since Martinez was removed from Game 1 after 4 innings due to a strained back, and all expected they had seen the last of Pedro's incredible 1999 season. Martinez was masterful, striking out eight and walking three despite having neither his fastball nor changeup at his disposal. Throwing hiscurveball almost exclusively, Martinez and the Red Sox won the rubber match of the ALDS 12-8 in what is cited as one of Martinez's greatest appearances. Also memorable in this game was the Indians strategy to intentionally walk shortstop Nomar Garciapara to face outfielder Troy O'Leary. Twice they walked Nomar and twice O'Leary returned the favor with a homerun driving in 7 runs for the day.October 11, 1985, George Brett steals the show in Game 3 of the 1985 American League Championship Series. Down 2-0 to Toronto in the series, Brett drove in or scored every Kansas City run, going 4 for 4 with a single, a double, and two home runs. When Brett wasn't busy torturing Toronto pitcher Doyle Alexander at the plate, he was mystifying in the field making a back-handed stop at third base to throw out a runner at home, and recording the final out to give the Royals a much-needed 6–5 win; their first in a series that they would win in seven games

Welcome back, CW Fighter, to another thrilling episode of Cryptid Warfare! I'm your host Zook, joined by the ever-curious Drewski, and today we're bringing a special guest into our cryptid combat zone: the enigmatic Nomar Slevik! Nomar is an established name in the UFO/UAE community with gripping tales and a podcast that's a trove of otherworldly encounters. In this episode, we're diverging into a labyrinth of unexplained phenomena and encounters that will leave you questioning the fabric of reality itself. From spine-chilling encounters with stick-like figures and bat-winged humanoids in Maine to the mysterious "black-eyed kids" who tread the line between vampiric and alien. Drewski will spill the beans on sightings that run in the family, sparking a deep dive into UFO abductions, and the bone-chilling concept of "white-eyed kids." Nomar's bone-rattling brush with a massive lightning bolt ship in the sky exposes the strange interplay between our intentions and these enigmatic visitors. We'll explore the murky waters of UFO phenomena, including the possibility of underwater alien civilizations, the perplexing accounts of missing time, and the uneasy relationship between cryptids, ufology, and religious tenets. Is there a spiritual dimension to these encounters? We discuss the power of invoking sacred names and the tales from those who've locked eyes with entities and lived to tell the tale. So fire up your signal flares and keep your cameras ready—this episode of Cryptid Warfare promises an enthralling foray into the unknown, questioning the unseen, and confronting the fears that roam the shadowy corners of our world.

Gratitude is the foundation of a happy working environment in all sectors, including healthcare. Scott Colby explains how the power of gratitude can transform our professional lives, with Jim Cagliostro. Episode Introduction Scott explores why gratitude is a form of self-care, why it's good business to implement a gratitude practice, and the impact of workplace loneliness. He also reveals the reason that 79% of workers leave their jobs, the transformative power of a handwritten note and how 36 questions can build long-lasting connections. Show Topics Lessons from Guatemala for healthcare leaders Gratitude is a form of self-care The power of handwritten notes Treat people like humans, not transactions Loneliness causes disconnections in the workplace How 36 questions build relationships 06:09 Lessons from Guatemala for healthcare leaders Scott said that work is often a reason people are unhealthy in the US, ‘'From my perspective, what I see is workers are overwhelmed, they're stressed, they have things to get done. I think in the US I think specifically we have a put your head down and get the work done no matter what the expense is. And often I think it's at the expense of the employee, the team member, the healthcare worker. And so I think that's a mentality. It's like, "Hey, we need to get the job done no matter what. And if it takes working long hours, if it takes not getting to take a lunch break or taking any type of break, we just have to get it done." And sometimes I think people feel like the work environment is not conducive to taking care of our own personal wellbeing. And then sometimes I know for people, they have challenges just asking for help. That was a big difference in Guatemala. Now keep in mind, I was there for a short period of time, but the community came out to welcome us. And the other thing I didn't share is they were getting their hands dirty alongside the volunteers and actually did a lot of the work, but not at the expense of their health. They did it alongside of each other and like, "Hey, we have a common goal to build a new classroom and we're going to do it as a community, but at the same time, we're going to welcome strangers, we're going to play soccer, we're going to be in the outdoors and take breaks." And I just think it's a different mindset here where we work, and I know specifically as I still do some individual health coaching with clients who are looking to lose weight and improve their sleep and lower their stress. No matter what industry they're in, it seems like work is a big reason that they're unhealthy. And it stinks because as an employee, if we're unhealthy, we're not going to do our best at work.'' 10:18 Gratitude is a form of self-care Scott explained why having a gratitude practice is beneficial for physical and mental well-being. ‘'I believe it's essential that we have our own gratitude practice first before we even bring it into the work environment. Well, I'll give an analogy, and most people probably have heard of this, is to, when you're on an airplane before they take off, they're reading the safety instructions, put that oxygen mask on yourself before you help other people around you. So just imagine if you don't put that oxygen mask on yourself and you pass out, you can't help anybody else. And so I believe if we're feeling down and depressed and negative and then our work says, "Hey, we're going to start implementing gratitude." Well, we're not going to be full participants because we don't feel good ourselves, we're feeling mentally, maybe physically sick. And so gratitude is a form of self-care. So the studies show that if you have a consistent and regular gratitude practice, you will feel more optimistic, you're going to be more positive, your stress is going to be less, you might have more energy, sleep better. Whole host of benefits to practice personal gratitude. So I feel like that needs to be in place so that you are kind of more fit and more strong to give it out to other people when you start implementing that at work.'' 13:54 The power of handwritten notes Scott said handwritten notes are a simple but powerful way to express appreciation in the workplace. ‘'Now, the reason I like handwritten notes so much is if you think about the way we live our lives currently, we're in a rush, we're getting messages from everywhere, like social media, text, email, and probably 100 other ways that I didn't name. And even if we're getting a thank you, which sometimes we don't, they're often just quick text messages like thank you. And they're usually for things that we did or for gift giving. Think about how would you feel if all of a sudden at work you received a handwritten note from a coworker who took the time to actually buy a card, get an envelope, mail it to your home, and write a heartfelt message of how they feel about you and what they appreciate about you. Not even looking about, "Hey, you're doing a great job" or "Thank you for filling in for me when I had to miss a day." But just like, "Hey, here's what I love about you as a person. You're funny. You make me laugh every day." If you got that from a coworker or a boss and it came into your mail, which we know most mail is bills and ads, and you're getting this envelope and it's a handwritten envelope and you open it up and you're like, wow. If that's from a coworker or boss and they just pour their heart out to you, you're going to be like, "I feel really good. This person really cares about me as a human being" and it's going to change your attitude in the workplace. So you are going to want to do a better job and probably be more productive and you're happier overall and maybe want to stick around the workplace and not quit your job. And so I think that's why gratitude can be shown in many different ways at work, but I think handwritten notes is one of the most powerful ways that you could do so.'' 18:20 Treat people like humans, not transactions Scott shared an anecdote to illustrate the importance of leading with gratitude. ‘'And so I consider leading with gratitude, especially whether you're a one man company or you have a whole organization with hundreds of people as treating other people. And so I know we've talked about how we treat our coworkers, but let's say how we treat our patients, our residents, our clients, treating them like humans and not like a transaction. So got a couple good examples for you based from my own personal life. When I lived in Denver, I had two cats, one of them named Nomar and Nomar had to get two teeth pulled one morning. And so as our pets are getting surgery and whatever is going on with them, we get nervous, we're anxious. So that morning I went to my favorite coffee shop called Fluid, and Fluid is a company and organization, they serve coffee, but they really got to know me over the years as a person. They knew that I had two cats. They knew I took a trip to Guatemala. Well, that morning I told the barista Coley, "Hey, my cat was getting two teeth pulled." This is very coincidental, but she had a cat getting teeth pulled that day as well. She just did something simple. She said, "Your coffee is on the house." And that made me smile. It took my mind off my cat for a few minutes, and it wasn't a company saying, "Hey, we need to milk this transaction and make sure we get money out of you." It was like, "Hey, Scott is anxious today. How can we put a smile on his face for a few minutes?" And so that stuck with me. And then later on that day when the vet office called me in to pick up Nomar, they said he did a good job. It's easy just to have, "Here's your cat. Pay us $1000." While that did happen, what they also did was they gave me a certificate, and the certificate was for Nomar, and they called it a Certificate of Bravery. And they said, "Nomar was a brave boy today." And it may sound corny, but if anybody praises our pets for those pet lovers out there, we just love that company. And so this vet did something very simple. They made a certificate of bravery for Nomar, and that just made my day.'' 23:40 Loneliness causes disconnections in the workplace Scott said helping people make connections and build friendships at work boosts engagement and productivity. ‘'One eye-opening statistic, it's not talked about, I think as much as maybe appreciation or workplace wellbeing, although it's part of it, is loneliness in the workplace. And so a statistic that came out a few years ago is 61% of employees feel lonely at work, they feel disconnected. And again, that's going to hurt engagement and productivity, and you're not going to want to stay there longer. On the other hand, 70% of employees in a survey said that having a friend at work is the number one critical factor to workplace happiness, which I love saying that. So I think one of the things I would really invest in is creating these deeper connections in the workplace and even friendships. I know maybe we don't talk about that much. Creating a friend at work. …. the jobs that I had when I had friends at work and we maybe did things together or we got to know each other on a more personal level, that made work more fun. It made it more tolerable, even if there were things about the job I didn't like, and then you have a second thought about quitting your job because "Hey, I don't want to leave a job that I have friends at." So there are different ways that you can create these human connections at work, such as writing handwritten notes or taking a break with them outside and sharing a laugh or sharing a meal together.'' 30:30 How 36 questions build relationships Scott said research by psychologist Arthur Aaron showed the positive impact of getting to know your coworkers. ‘'Arthur Aaron was a research psychologist decades ago. He wanted to answer this question, how can we in a laboratory setting create instant intimacy between strangers? So what he did, he got a large group of people, brought them into his laboratory, and what he had done, he created, after some trial and error, he had created a list of 36 questions. They started out more general and then got more intimate, and he paired people up. Mind you, these people were strangers and they just took turns back and forth asking each other these questions. Just imagine if you're in a room with some other person, maybe a coworker that you don't know very well, and that you ask each other these 36 questions. By the end of that, you're going to be like, gosh, I know this person a lot better now. I know their likes, dislikes, what they're going through. And so what Arthur Aaron found out is I think it was 57% of the people in the group that were strangers wanted to hang out with their partner again in some other setting after the research project was over. So they got to know the person enough that they wanted to hang out together after the fact. And then two people from the study, one pair actually got married and invited everybody from the study. So really asking these kind of open-ended questions like what is one word that describes how you're feeling about life right now?

Why am I focusing on the things that I don't have instead of being grateful for my life and what I do have?'' Why stepping back is important in the working environment: ‘'The thing about pushing yourself so hard is it leads to illness, whether it's physical illness, emotional exhaustion, mental breakdowns…. studies actually show that when we can take breaks and step away for a few minutes, we'll come back to our work more recharged and more productive.'' The importance of valuing people in the workplace: ‘'… 79% of the people that answered the survey said they left their job in large part because they didn't feel appreciated in the workplace…it's one thing to recognize you for your work, but it's another thing to feel appreciated as a human being...'' Alternative questions to ask when "How are you today?" isn't enough: ‘'…the standard answer is, "I'm fine." When in reality we probably have 50 other emotions that aren't fine that we could have expressed, but we're not comfortable expressing them …'' Leadership tips: Understanding that business is personal ‘'…get to know people on that level, and I think that's going to make a big difference in your organization.''

July 23 Baseball History DailyHappy Birthday - Pee Wee Reese Against all odds, Pee Wee Reese earned an opportunity to play professional baseball, start for the Dodgers, play in several World Series, and be enshrined in the Hall of Fame. He did the little things that helped his teams win: bunt the runner over, go from first to third on a base hit, or range into the hole for a grounder. He was the best shortstop in the National League in the late 1940s and into the 1950s.Pee Wee Reese got his nickname as a young champion marble shooter; a “pee wee” is a type of marble. A Kentucky native, he earned the monicker The Little Colonel as the star shortstop on the Louisville Colonels (American Association). After his arrival in Brooklyn, he was named captain of the Dodgers, and many called him The Captain. The title was well earned, as he was the leader of Dodger teams that won seven pennants in the 1940s and 1950s. When Jackie Robinson arrived in Brooklyn amid enormous pressures and player resentment, it was Reese who set the example of acceptance, putting his arm around Robinson's shoulder on the field, showing the world he was Robinson's teammate and friend.Inducted as Player in 1984.

On this episode of MITM Laura and Aaron discuss, how over the years hitchhiking became less popular and the laws placed against it for everyone safety. Even the FBI made posters warning against the dangers. Laura tells the history of how a young girl tragically lost her life and has become known as the vanishing hitchhiker ghost, Resurrection Mary. Many ghostly hitchhiking stories share similarities to Mary. Aaron shares an Appalachian horse riding, hitchhiker story. One day a man picked up a woman who asked for a ride with him on his horse. In the short amount of time that he had taken her to her destination, he became so enthralled with the woman that he went back to her family the next day to ask her hand in marriage, only to find out the woman had been deceased. Stories that had been collected and grouped, by two folklorists in the 1940's are also discussed.

Welcome back to the Daily Gratitude Minute. My name is Scott Colby from Say It With Gratitude. . Yesterday I was in a virtual meeting and we were playing a few rounds of the Grateful Deck, which is my card deck with 120 questions to start meaningful conversations. We each took a turn to answer a question, and the question I got was, Tell me about one of your happiest moments. So, I love this question because it reminds us of the good in our lives, and, and we can recall a memory that we had that perhaps put a smile on my face. So my answer to this question was back in 2003, it was the day after the 4th of July. , that's when I adopted my cat's, Nomar and Mia. Now, Nomar is no longer with us. He passed away at the, uh, in, um, August of 2019, right before I moved to Tennessee. But back in 2003, I was living in Dallas at the time. I had never owned a pet before, but I knew, um, from my, uh, had a relationship with a girl. got a cat and I loved that cat, so I figured, hey, one day I'll get a cat. And so my sister was visiting me in Dallas and we went to the mall to do some clothes shopping and the S P C A was there, and you know, when. There's S P C A A rescue. I love to just look, you know, I'll look at the cats and the kittens and the dogs and the puppies. Well, sure enough, I picked up one of the cats. I forget which kitten I picked up first. Uh, and I was talking it over with my sister and. Before you knew it, I had decided to adopt a kitten. And Jill, my sister, had suggested that I think about getting two. She had had a cat at the time, uh, just one cat and she always kind of wished she had had two cats because whenever she left town, her cat was alone and she felt bad and would have liked for her cat to have the company of another. So I actually ended up going clothes shopping at the mall as my intention. And I came home that day with two kittens, uh, Nomar and Mia and uh, Mia, who is still around. She will be 20 in April. Uh, both of those cats have put a lot of smiles on my faces, brings a lot of joy to my heart, and I just really have. Memories of the day. I adopted both of them. They were really young, so they weren't from the same litter, but they were from, from the same rescue about two weeks apart. So we kind of pegged Mia's birthday as April 10th, 20 or 2003, and Nomar as April 27th, which is also my birthday, 2003. So he was just slightly younger and uh, just got, I've gotten to experience the. Of being a pet owner for the last 19 and a half years. Those of you who have a dog or a cat or uh, any pet, you know what I'm talking about, they. Bring a lot of happiness and joy to our lives. One quick thing before I sign off, so this was a question from the Grateful Deck. I encourage you perhaps to take that question and get a group of people. Maybe it's your family on Christmas morning. Maybe you have a group of friends or even at work to start a meeting. You can. Learn a lot about some, somebody that you may not know by just answering that specific question. If you want to download all 120 questions, I've got a, of course you could buy the physical version, but if you want this for free, I've got the downloadable version. You can go to gratitude toolkit.com. Gratitude toolkit.com. I'm Scott Colby with Say It With Gratitude, and this has been your daily gratitude minute. Cheers.
In today's episode, I talk about what it means for a company to lead with gratitude, which means everything should be relational, and not just about the transaction. I share a story about how my favorite coffee shop in Denver, Fluid, used gratitude when my cat Nomar was having a couple of teeth pulled.

So I want to give a big thank you to Scott for coming on and talking about gratitude in the workplace. And so I'm very grateful for him. Everyone enjoyed today's episode. Hey, Scott, welcome to the podcast. I'm happy to have you on today. 02:01 Hey, Karen, thank you for having me. Looking forward to a great conversation. 02:06 Yeah, it's my pleasure. And today we're going to be talking about happiness and how to create a happier workplace through gratitude. So before we get into the meat and potatoes of our conversation, can you let the listeners know a little bit more about why you came across this topic? Why this is like your expertise. So go ahead and give the listeners a little bit more backstory, if 02:31 you will? Yeah, certainly. So back in 2014, I took a trip to Guatemala, I was there to build schools with an nonprofit called hug it forward. And we were building schools out of plastic bottles. And one of my first memories of that volunteer experience, it was about a week long experience was I was riding a bus with 25 other volunteers. And we pulled up to the site. In a community called Chinook stay in Guatemala, we pulled up to the site where we were going to be volunteering, and I didn't know really what to expect. And I looked out the window of the bus. And it looked like the entire community had come out to greet us. And there was people of all ages, kids and parents and grandparents. And as I stepped off the bus with the other volunteers, the community had formed two lines. And we walked in between the two lines of people. And we felt like rock stars, or at least I did, walking down the red carpet, there were people waving the American flag, there was music blaring over the loudspeaker, just they were hugging us and just had smiles all over their faces. And I really learned that they were just being grateful for the volunteers that we had taken time out of our schedule to take that trek to Guatemala. And the other thing that I learned over my week long experience there in genetics day, was that the community had very little, very little clean water. They don't have the smartphones and the internet that we take for granted very little food, cramped living conditions. But they had community they had each other. And again, they had gratitude and appreciation for just other human beings. And as I thought to myself, when I got back, I was living in Denver at the time, when I thought to myself, after I return home, like cash, like how am I living my life, I'm living a life filled with complaining, thinking about all the things that I don't have. And in stark contrast to just what I experienced, and also looking at my life and other people around me, are always on our phones and we're always have our head buried in screens, and we're anxious and we're overwhelmed and we're not making deep connect actions anymore. It seemed like so that was kind of the first start that I had in my head, that, hey, I wanted to do something different in my life to make, to really live in gratitude, and to live with an attitude that I learned from the community and nginx de Guatemala. And then also, I think, and we'll probably get to this a little bit later in the conversation, just my experience in the corporate world of, yeah, you know, I've had jobs where I don't feel appreciated in the workplace and how much of an impact that made to my to my happiness, we spend a lot of time at work. And if you're not happy with your job, and a lot of that is not feeling valued or not feeling listened to that can really impact your your mood and your attitude. And really, whether you want to stay with a company or not. So kind of putting all that together that led me to start a brand called, say with gratitude. And it started with thank you cards, and now it's morphed into where I speak on the topic of workplace gratitude. 06:05 And you alluded to this, but I want to dive right in. So how does this translate into the workplace? How does that action of gratitude, that feeling of being appreciated? How do you translate that into a corporate setting, or, in my case, I'm a physical therapist, so maybe into a healthcare setting where people right now are really stressed out and burnt out. And, you know, and carrying a lot of student debt, and empathetic loads, and everything else? So how do you infuse gratitude? What are your recommendations? Yeah, and 06:46 that's a lot. And I, I'm glad you brought that up, I actually just came back from Wisconsin, where I was speaking at a healthcare conference on this very topic. I'm a big believer that it starts with you first. So start with the person before we can maybe bring it into the workplace, because we need that. We need to have that right attitude. It's hard to it's hard to spread gratitude around the workplace, if you're feeling, let's say, depressed and overwhelmed and stressed. So what can you do to start your own personal gratitude practice? I also have a health and fitness background. So I love that you're in, in physical therapy. And yeah, so I, I always talked about the analogy of, you know, when you're on an airplane, and they're given the safety instructions, if the oxygen mask comes down, please put it on yourself first, before helping others. And I talked about that, because if you're passed out, how are you going to help other people, but we can maybe not literally get passed out. But we can have the feeling of like, Hey, I just can't do it anymore. So I think we have to take care of ourselves first with self care. And there's a lot of different ways you could practice self care, but for this conversation, what how can you practice gratitude, and help you feel better gratitudes got that kind of magical powers that it can help you be more optimistic, feel less stress, more energy and things like that. So where do we begin here? There's various ways to practice gratitude. Probably the one that people maybe, you know, they think of when they think of the term gratitude, just keeping a gratitude journal and writing down what you're grateful for. I've got a tip there, though. I know a lot of people that do do that just kind of go through the motions. And then you don't really feel that difference. Like if you're just saying like, Hey, I'm grateful for my cat Oliver, which we now know as parents cat's name. I'm grateful for all of her my health and my job. And then you turn the page and you fill out the gratitude the next day. What does that actually mean? It probably is not going to get you into a frame of mind where you're living in gratitude. So we're, I suggest people take it further is if you're writing down, you're grateful for somebody or some something in your life. Follow that up. By writing down why you're grateful for those things, or that person, what is it about that person that you appreciate that you love? And then I take it even deeper and I teach people think about what your life would look like without that person? Or that that thing without that job without your teammate? What would life look like then? And then when you do that, you say what, why and what would your life look like without then it creates a more emotional response. So I'll have people do this in my breakout sessions. And that's usually the hears, people have tears because they start to think, oh my gosh, my life without this person, I couldn't even imagine it. So I think that is one way to start a personal gratitude practice. So you're actually like, Okay, you're, you're reminding yourself of the good in your life. And then what does that mean for work and work, we could talk about two different things. One is like, leading with gratitude, which, in a sense, I take that to mean creating a culture of gratitude and kindness. So in healthcare, trading, treating your patients, like real people, and that have a heart and not just transactional. So I like to, you know, give examples, so people can really think about what this might look like in the real world. So I my favorite coffee shop in Denver, when I lived, there was a coffee shop called fluid. They, they got to know me by asking questions. I went there on a regular basis. So it wasn't just like, hey, here's your coffee, give us money. It was people that took the time to get to know me a perfect example. There was one day when one of my other cats we had talked about cats before we hit record. My other cat, Nomar who who's not with us anymore. He was having two teeth pulled. And so I was a little bit anxious and the barista the manager there, she asked me like, hey, you know what's wrong? I told her, her cat was having a tooth pulled that day as well, just coincidentally, and she just said here, your coffee is on the house today. And it was just just a little thing. But something like that can go a long way. Chewy. Speaking of animals, they're a company that sells pet food and pet accessories to pet owners. I know a lot of pet owners will get their food from chewy on an auto order subscription basis, they automatically send the food every month, and they take money out of your credit card. So there's a lot of stories, but it goes like this. A lot of times when a pet owners, dog dies, let's say or a cat dies, and they'll call you and say hey, please stop my shipment, my dog has passed away. Chewy, of course will express sympathy. And then they'll say, okay, all those unopened bags that you may still have, we will refund your money for all of that. Don't send the food back, we will, we would love for you to donate that food to a local shelter. And then a lot of times in a few days, sympathy flowers and a sympathy card will show up on the doorstep in just as a as an expression of condolences. So chewy is a company that leads with gratitude. So they're not saying like, we need your money back or we need the food back or we can't send these flowers because it costs too much. They're treating their customers like human beings that have a heart. 13:06 And then we've got appreciation in the workplace in the sense of all right, we need to appreciate our teammates, right? There's an interesting statistic. This is kind of a old statistic, Karen, but it's still relevant and maybe worse today. 79% of people in a research study a few years ago said that they left their job, in part because they didn't feel appreciated at work. So it wasn't like, hey, we need more money. Or we need to be you know, get promoted. It was really just not feeling valued, not feeling heard or listened to and not feeling like they mattered. So that's why I like to talk about Okay, starting with yourself first and then spreading it to other people like your customers or patients but also your team. And a great book is the five languages of appreciation at work. It's kind of a follow up book to the five love languages, which is was a popular book that talked about relationships, personal relationships, and we all have a preferred way that we like to receive love. We also have a preferred way that we like to receive appreciation at work. And the languages are the same five languages as the original five love languages book. So think of things like words of affirmation, quality, time, acts of service, tangible gifts and physical touch. We all have a way that we like to be shown appreciation at work usually follows one of those five. And so basically the idea here is find out how your each teammate likes to be appreciated at work, and then appreciate them in that language on a consistent basis. So somebody likes words of affirmation. So you want to appreciate that person, by affirming them with words that can be written, it can be verbal, the idea is to do it consistently. Be very specific. Don't always make it tied to performance. Maybe make it you know, give them a shout out on why you like them, kind of like we talked about earlier, when we write down like, Why do you like somebody's work? Somebody that is loves words of affirmation will love hearing good things about them? So yeah, so that's just kind of a basic rundown. I know, that was a long answer. But I think it's important to, to get all three of those in personal gratitude, leading with gratitude, and then spreading appreciation to your team. Yeah, 15:46 that's three, kind of an easy framework for people to follow. And circling back to that gratitude list or gratitude journal. I used to keep one and then I did it. And then I did and now you know, it kind of goes in cycles. Do you have any advice for people on how to be consistent. And as a follow up, I think it's important for people to know that it doesn't always have to be really big things. I remember when I started, the coach that I was working with was saying, Well, you know, it doesn't always have to be big, grand things. It could be like, I'm grateful that I have an umbrella because it was raining today, or I'm grateful I have a warm jacket, because it's 30 degrees today. So it doesn't have to always be a person or an animal or a relationship. 16:39 Yeah, yeah. Great point. You want to keep it simple, right. So don't get overwhelmed. So I love your point there. So my first thought to your question was, you know, you've mentioned that you weren't super consistent with your gratitude journaling. I know, I'm not I'm actually not either. You know, I'm seen as gratitude guy. But gratitude journaling never has been something that I've been consistent at. So what I do want to I'll give a tip on how to be consistent. But before I do that, I do want to encourage the listeners to find something gratitude related that you do enjoy doing. So maybe your thing isn't keeping a gratitude journal, but maybe like complimenting somebody. So that is a sign of gratitude. Or a way to show somebody gratitude. Gratitude could be just sending a quick video to somebody. So maybe like, I'm not really much with written but I'll send them a video or an audio. And that could be your thing, or writing handwritten notes, could be your thing. But in terms of if you did want to start with gratitude journaling, and trying to figure out a way to be consistent with that right off the bat, you could do some things that can help you form a new habit, much like forming a new habit to exercise or something like that. setting yourself up for success. So breaking down the habit into the smallest thing possible. So maybe you just write down one word each day instead of trying to form an entire sentence. So that could be a way to break it down in a small, small miniscule habit. But also think about something that you're already doing, and stacking this habit on that and creating a trigger point. So suppose you make coffee every single day. And that's kind of a routine you're already in. So maybe you leave your gratitude journal by your coffee pot or your coffee maker, and just have that next to it as a reminder that oh, yeah, because a lot of times not keeping a habit is just we forget about doing it. So create a way that you will remember to do the habit by having something that you already do be that trigger that reminder, right. 19:02 So your habit, habit stacking. 19:05 Exactly, yeah, habit stacking. Yep. So you've heard of that. If you're doing something like if you're doing something like writing a handwritten note, I've tried to do like, writing handwritten notes every day, which I've been successful at for a while. That is a little bit more involved. But what I could do is think about the night before who I want to write the note to find the address, get the envelope out, get the card out, get the pen out, get the stamp out and put it all out. So I'm actually see it and everything's not like hidden away in a drawer. So make things visible. So I think yeah, those are my best advice to find something that you like doing so it might not be a gratitude journal. Once you find it breaking down in the smallest component possible. So it's one word versus a list of 10 things and then finally have it stack you know, do Do it while you're doing something that you already do every single day anyway. 20:05 Got it? Yeah, much easier makes it much more digestible than like, well, I don't know if I can write the journal and then write the why. And gosh, take me 30 minutes. And do I have time for this? And yeah, so that makes a lot of sense. And I can also, I should also say, like, you can do it on your phone, too, like the notes section of your phone? Yeah. Yeah. You know. So that's, that's a possibility as well. So if you have like, a commute after work, where you're not driving, you can, you can like make that a habit at the end of your day to just throw something into your phone or something like that. 20:42 Yeah, I got one more. Yeah, it's similar to a gratitude journal to gratitude jar, which is huge. It's just take any jar. And you can just cut out slips of paper and just write down one thing that you're grateful for. Each day in the paper, maybe you have a family, and you get the whole family involved. And I like this idea. Because the jar can be visible. And it's fun. It's almost fun to watch the stacks of the slips of paper grow in the jar tilde, Giorgio stuffed, filled with gratitude, then you could pick a day, Thanksgiving Day, New Year's Day, maybe go and bring your family together, you sit in a room, on the sofa in the living room, and you go through like hay who said they were grateful for you know, chocolate, and then somebody raises their hand. That was me. And then you said, then you can go into more of the Hey, why did you pick chocolate? What is it about it? And then you can have these amazing conversations as a family. Or you could even do something like this at work as well. 21:50 Yeah, I was just thinking that if you have, you know, maybe a smaller to medium size, like a small company, or I know a lot of physical therapy offices. They don't have hundreds and hundreds of people in the same office. So this is something that's actually like, doable. You know, because I think if you had like, if you're in an office with like, 300, people, like it might be a little overwhelming. But most, I think healthcare offices, you know, if you have 20 people, I think that would be like quite a bit. So if you're in a smaller office, it's a great way to stay connected with your co workers. And another way of staying connected is and you'd mentioned this here, and there are handwritten notes. So how do you incorporate handwritten notes in the workplace? And are you only doing this if you're the boss? 22:44 Yes, I so handwritten notes I love it's how I started my company, say with gratitude, I, I had kids draw pictures. And I turned them into thank you cards that I sold to individuals and companies. But I love handwritten notes because it provides a connection point between you and the recipient of the note. So it's a way to not only appreciate somebody but actually connect to them on a deeper level. So whereas you know, writing in a gratitude journal, you might be the only one that sees that a handwritten note to people can see it or maybe even more in the workplace. You can use it a couple of different ways. One could be if you start to learn, who in your company likes words of affirmation, right, we talked about the five languages of appreciation. If you find out who likes words of affirmation, then you can make it a point to write a handwritten note to those people and know it doesn't need to only be the boss. I think if you're creating a culture of gratitude, I think everybody should be involved. If you're trying to figure out like, hey, I want to start this gratitude at work thing, not sure where to start, handwritten notes, I think can be a great place to start before you kind of fine tune your your appreciation, tools that you want to use. The kind of latest research shows from the authors of the five languages of appreciation and workplace that almost 50% of workers choose words of affirmation as their first way that they like to receive appreciation at work. So it's a great place to start. Of course also, you can easily write handwritten notes to your, your your patients to appreciate them. We talked about appreciating your customers patients, more is more than just a transaction, like make them feel good. And there's a company that I interviewed the HR had a few years ago, I love what they do every week, like once a week, they would, as a team, they would get together at lunchtime for about an hour. And they would write handwritten notes to their customers. And I liked it two reasons. One, they were expressing gratitude to their team, or excuse me, to their customers, but to they were bonding over the act of writing gratitude notes as a company. So just imagine there's a few people in a room, they're grabbing lunch, they're writing notes, they were being creative, they were putting stickers on the notes. And they were able to kind of chat with their the co workers on a level that they don't normally do, because they're normally just focused on work. So they got to know their team, on a deeper level, just having these conversations as they were writing note to their customers. So it could be a great way to, to bring your team together to just bonding over the act of writing handwritten notes. 26:02 And here's the question that I think a lot of business owners are going to want to know. And you may, you may have an idea of what I'm going to ask here. But what does this do for the bottom line of a company? So you're spending this time you're bringing in people from your company? How does does this improve the bottom line? Will this help the company make more money? 26:28 Yep. So that one statistic that I mentioned that 79% of people left a job because they didn't feel appreciated at work? Turnover finding new workers as a high cost of business for a company. So anyway, the Yeah, the the research is showing that. Doing things like infusing gratitude at work, appreciating your team, connecting with them on a more deeper level. So a lot of people feel disconnected at work, because they've got a lot of emotional stuff, you know, in their lives are overwhelmed or stressed. But when they get to work, they don't chat about any of that. So there's a lot of research now that shows workplace loneliness is high. Six, up to 61% of all US employees are lonely. So lonely workers and workers that don't feel appreciated, they're disengaged, they're not as productive. They're calling in sick, they're stress. They're thinking about leaving their job, or they're actually leaving their job. And connecting with a team and showing appreciation to your team can change all of I don't know that there's actually hard numbers that are out there yet, but just know that there are studies have shown there's productivity increases, turnover decreases, sick days decreased. So all of this leads to companies that can actually save more money. 28:10 Yeah, no, I understand that. Yeah, that makes sense. But I had to ask that question, you know, because people are going to be like, Well, this sounds great. But what's it gonna do? Yeah, it's 28:20 the biggest probably, you know, obstacle in doing something like this, because a lot of businesses are like, well, you know, I know if I spend, you know, $100 on Facebook ads, I'm gonna get this exactly. Yeah. Right, and $1 for dollar return. And for something that's more of a soft skill like this, you might not exactly have that data, but just know that there's a lot of money being lost due to low productivity and high turnover. Yeah. And with appreciation and connecting can really solve a lot of this. Yeah, 28:56 no, that makes perfect sense. And now, before we wrap things up, I want you to one more time. Yes. Do you mind repeating the five languages of appreciation in the workplace? 29:06 Yeah, the five languages of appreciation are words of affirmation. Quality time. So that's the second, the one that second most popular quality time. So two people basically, spending time together like you and I are acts of service. So that could be like helping somebody with a time sensitive project. Tangible gifts. So that could be somebody that actually likes to receive a gift. And that's how they like to be appreciated. The thing is, they're the best you can make the gift. It doesn't have to be expensive, but the more personal, you can make it the better. So a gift of a pair of socks with my cat's face on them is better than handing me a Starbucks gift card because somebody that knows I'd like my cats has done their homework and that would be a really meaningful gift to me. And then physical touches the last one That's not seen very much in the workplace that's like, you know, high five pat on the shoulder for obvious reasons. Yeah, yep. Yeah, that one is usually not somebody's primary way they like to receive appreciation. So the first four are the ones that most things, you need to focus on those four languages. Right, 30:19 right. And speaking of gifts, you actually have a free gift for our listeners. So it's gratitude. toolkit.com. Can you talk a little bit more about that? 30:28 Yeah, that's really a toolkit with a bunch of goodies. So what'd you get there? I wrote a book called The Grateful entrepreneur, which I know you mentioned in the intro, that you get a digital copy of that book, that's all about creating meaningful relationships at work. I've got something else that I created called the grateful deck, which is 120 questions to start meaningful conversations, great to use to start meetings at work to just get to know your team a little bit better. And then I've also got 47 ways to practice personal gratitude, and 29 ways to use gratitude to grow your business. So that's all in this all digital downloads in the gratitude toolkit. 31:15 Perfect. And that's awesome. So if you want to go a little bit deeper into what we've spoken about today, then you're going to want to check out that gratitude toolkit. And again, it's www dot gratitude toolkit. All one word.com. All right. So is there anything that we didn't touch upon that you want to hit on? Or is there something that you want the listeners to their big takeaway here? 31:43 Yeah, big takeaway, I think, is just to start now, do something, compliment somebody flash somebody a smile, do something different. If you want to go a little bit deeper than that, write a handwritten note. And do those three, do the three things that I talked about in the journal, do it for your note? Who do you appreciate? Why do you appreciate them? What would your life look like if they weren't in your life and read that note to them, it's even more powerful than just handed it to them is to read it to them, the connection will be amazing. And the one thing one thing that we didn't hit on, that's kind of near and dear to my heart. Do some of this unplugged. So don't you know if somebody is talking to you Don't be on your phones, pay attention to them. That's a form of gratitude, a form of connecting is just listening. So I if you want to start a gratitude practice, think about doing this, like write your note without like, put your phone in a different room, you'll be more engaged. And you're going to think more clearly. So yeah, that's a I think a good good takeaway for that for the audience. Yeah, 32:55 that's great. I love it. And now, I have one more question. It's a question I asked everyone. Okay. That's knowing where you are now in your life. And in your career? What advice would you give to your younger self? 33:07 Oh, that's a great question. Lots of advice. I could give my younger self. So I was thinking about this, I would say, and this is I was trying to think of what am I still working on? Because and there's a lot but I was I'm gonna go with don't take things personally. So good. Something I still work out. I don't think I'll ever be like completely perfect with that. But yeah, if I could give my younger self that advice. Because I do take things personally, I'm sensitive. If somebody you know, I could have 100 compliments, and one naysayer, and I'm focused on that naysayer, I think it's human nature. And I take it personally, but but I think like, we don't know, like, at least for me, personally, I know I'm doing good in the world. And I'm changing lives. And I need to not be sensitive and not read social media sometimes and take that own advice of unplugged right and just hanging out with the people that I love. And I know that love me and, and, and really, I think just continue to connect with other human beings in a meaningful way. Get rid of the technology. Don't let negative comments bring you down. Because then it can affect your day, your week thing that affects your performance at work that affects how you relate to your loved ones. And so yeah, so don't take things personally. Advice that I would give my younger self but I would also continue to take that in my older self. 34:54 Yeah, I love it. That's so good. And now where can people find you? Where can they connect with you, 34:59 too? your main website is saved with gratitude.com you can always email me Scott at Scott colby.com.

Welcome back to the daily gratitude minute. This is Scott Colby. Thank you so much for joining me. I was recently, uh, out on one of my gratitude hikes. I was leading a family. Uh, and for those of you who don't know, I. It's one of many things that I do. I take groups out on private hiking tours in the smoky mountains. And we were playing the grateful dead. So the grateful deck is my card deck that I created back in 2020, and it's 120 cards consisting of questions to spark meaningful conversations. And. Uh, helped develop deeper connection. So we always play a few rounds of the grateful deck on my gratitude hikes. And, uh, I was asked to question, uh, from one of the cards and the question Who is always there for you. And how do you feel about them who was always there for you? And how do you feel about them? I mentioned my friend, Lori Heisler, she's somebody that's always there for me. We've known each other for 10 years now. Uh, she's been there for the good and the bat, right. She, she, uh, uh, you know, There's something where I'm struggling in my business. She's there lends and ear and helps talk me through challenges that I'm having. When I lost my cat Nomar, she was right there. Um, helping me make that decision to, to say goodbye. Definitely a great, uh, to have her around for such a. A tough time as saying goodbye to a pet. Um, she's there for the winds too. She reminds me to celebrate the good that I've done in my business or in my life. Uh, so it's nice to have that reminder. She's also an adventure friend, so we like to go out and do fun things together. She's one of those friends that I have fun doing things with. No matter what we're doing, it's just easy to be around here. I can be my. Complete self around here. So those are the reasons I mentioned, Lori, somebody that's always there for me. And, and, and why. Uh, but I would encourage you to think of that question. You're in your Who's that person that's always there for you and why, and I want you to think about taking a step further and telling that person, maybe write them a handwritten Maybe you have a phone call with them, maybe if they're, if they live in the same. You know, areas you can have, uh, you know, just, uh, a meal, you know, got to lunch dinner. A cup of coffee and tell them. What they mean to you and why that's, why they're important to you. So it could definitely increase your bond and your connection with that person and watch that. Relationship grow. So, uh, hope that helps try it. If you do, do something like that, I would love to hear how it goes. You can find me on Instagram at Scott Colby and send me a DM. There would love to connect with you there. Otherwise, thank you so much for joining me. I'm scott colby with say it with gratitude and this has been your daily gratitude minute cheers
It is probably the most infuriating season in Cubs history (and that's saying something with this bunch). The Cubs patched almost all of their holes from the year before when they gagged away a pennant, and the fans were manic from the first game on. Greggie came home, the Cubs stole Derrek Lee, added Todd Walker for some reason and traded for the dumbest catcher they could find. Mark Prior and Kerry Wood got hurt, again, Big Z was still just a kid and tried to drag them to the finish line. Sweaty Joe broke, Ryan Dempster's Tommy John Disease went into remission and he showed up late in the season to make things worse. Kent Mercker and Steve Stone got in three different verbal slap fights. The Cubs did do a trade and got Nomar! Sammy sneezed his back off, Todd Hollandsworth crippled himself with a foul ball, Andy Pratt threw very few strikes, LaTroy melted down repeatedly, Corey Patterson kept getting put back into the leadoff spot, and wait until you hear how much Jose Macias played down the stretch. Just so much...Dusty. You think you remember all of the bad stuff from the 2004 Cubs, but, you don't. Buckle up for two and a half hours of catharsis. It's a helluva lot easier to handle now thanks to 2016. -- If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, crisis counseling and referral services can be accessed by calling 1-800-GAMBLER (1-800-426-2537) (IL/IN/LA/MI/NJ/PA/WV/WY), 1-800-NEXTSTEP (AZ), 1-800-522-4700 (CO/NH), 888-789-7777/visit http://ccpg.org/chat (CT), 1-800-BETS OFF (IA), 877-8-HOPENY/text HOPENY (467369) (NY), visit OPGR.org (OR), call/text TN REDLINE 1-800-889-9789 (TN), or 1-888-532-3500 (VA). 21+ (18+ NH/WY).

Ride the Painted Pod, Let the Spinning Wheel Cast Much like a child, a podcast has many parents. That is to say, many individuals who act like parents, or that by a version, the podcast is their baby. This week's guest is one of those individuals. Certainly one of PYAG's parents is The Frotcast, and Joining Matt and Vince to break down The Sopranos Season 6b, episode 2, “Stage 5,” is The Frotcast's largest daddy, Brendan. If this were an episode of Friends, it would be called, “The One with Chrissy's Movie Premiere.” Cleaver, the film with many parents, is finally ready for public consumption, and while the graphic violence might strike some as unsettling, it's the possible inspiration for the film's overbearing, selfish, mob boss antagonist that was Tony feeling uncomfortable. As he tells Dr. Melfi, he knows too much about the subconscious now to believe that Chrissy still respects him after seeing Stephen Baldwin's portrayal of him. The episode also features the most British song yet. Stick around to the end to hear it. Leave your review of Cleaver in a five-star review of PYAG on Apple Podcasts.
