Etling explains that the community's goal is to disrupt and elevate the landscaping industry by fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing among members, who range from those doing $500,000 to $40 million in revenue. He details how the community provides real-time feedback, discounted partnerships, and access to experienced leaders who openly share their strategies and financials.  Key Takeaways: Actively engage with peer groups and communities to share ideas and foster collective growth.

    Become Your Own Astrologer workshop this Thursday!RSVP for free to join live - https://www.quietmindastrology.com/workshopIf you're like me, you've got plenty of inputs in your life — news, podcasts, conversations, books — but how often do you sit and truly listen to the wisdom that's already inside you? This episode is an invitation to step away from the noise, tune in, and hear what life has been trying to tell you.We'll explore the energy of Shravana, the nakshatra of hearing and listening, which is especially strong right now under the Full Moon in Capricorn. This isn't about adding more voices to your life — it's about giving you perspective and tools to connect with your own internal guidance system.Life speaks in many ways: through your feelings in each moment, synchronicities that show up again and again, repeating patterns in your relationships or work, moments that trigger strong reactions, and the symbols in your dreams. Sometimes these signs are gentle, sometimes they're loud, but they're always personal to you. In this episode, I'll share examples from my own life and insights from Vedic wisdom to help you notice and work with these messages.I'll share about:• Why feelings are one of the clearest forms of life's feedback• How synchronicities can act as signposts for your path• The role of patterns — both supportive and limiting — in shaping your reality• What triggers reveal about deeper samskaras and opportunities for growth• How dreams act as “letters from the universe” that you can open, read, and learn from• The natural cycles of expansion and contraction and how to work with both• Recognizing “bright lights” that signal alignment and “resistance” that signals growth edgesI'll also share why it's so important to create space to process what life is saying, especially in an age where we have more external input than ever before. This is the essence of Shravana energy — listening deeply to your life, not rushing to change everything, but allowing the messages to integrate so you can respond from clarity rather than reactivity.If you want to go deeper with this Full Moon in Shravana, I've created a guide with “Opportunities & Challenges” for your rising and moon signs, plus a simple practice to work with this energy. It's in the free weekly horoscopes email — you can sign up at quietmindastrology.com.And if you're ready to study astrology for yourself and use it as a lifelong tool for clarity and guidance, join me for the Become Your Own Astrologer workshop. I'll walk you through the steps to start reading your own chart with accuracy and confidence, so you can work with transits like this Full Moon in real time. Sign up at quietmindastrology.com/workshop — link in the show notes.Life is always speaking to you. The question is — are you listening?5 Key Ideas from the Episode• Life speaks to us in feelings, synchronicities, patterns, triggers, and dreams.• Patterns will repeat until we do something about them.• A dream not analyzed is like receiving a letter and not opening it.• Expansion isn't always good, contraction isn't always bad — both are part of the cycle.• To hear what life is saying, you need time, space, patience, and real human connection.Free Downloads, Weekly Horoscopes & Exclusive offers: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/freehoroscopesFree Vedic Birth Chart & Training:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.quietmindastrology.com/freebirthchartInstagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/quietmindastrologyDecode Your Birth Chart: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/decode1:1 Reading: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/readingMentorship: https://www.quietmindastrology.com/mentorshipQuietmind Yoga: https://www.quietmind.yoga

    Phil Miller covers the Minnesota Twins for the Star Tribune. He joins Steve Thomson ahead of the second game of the Twins/Royals series. The Twins have been winning some games despite trading away much of their roster at the deadline. Phil and Steve talk about Joe Ryan's experience around the deadline and how it feels in the locker room after so much change in so little time. As jarring as the trade deadline was, Phil thinks there were four months of not so inspiring baseball that led to so much upheaval. He also touches on unique ailments that some players are dealing with.

    Boredom Isn't the Enemy—It's an Opportunity

    In this introspective episode of Shark Theory, Baylor Barbee unpacks an overlooked emotion: boredom. Flashing back to the early COVID days of spinning in an office chair and playing ping pong alone, Baylor explores why boredom makes us uncomfortable—and how learning to sit still can unlock self-awareness, clarity, and power. He challenges the hustle-obsessed mindset, sharing insights from Buddhist philosophy, military preparation, and his own practices to help listeners turn silence into strategy. If you've been feeling “off,” unmotivated, or anxious about not doing enough—this episode is your permission to be still and your playbook to grow in it. Key Takeaways: Stillness Reveals the Truth: We avoid boredom because it forces us to face ourselves—but that's exactly where growth begins. Boredom Is a Privilege: If you have time to be bored, you're already ahead. Use that margin to your advantage. Sit Without a Purpose: Practice sitting still not to plan, fix, or produce—but simply to be. That's where clarity emerges. Prepare in the Quiet: Like the military develops planes long before battle, use your downtime to sharpen your skills and expand your arsenal. New Battles Will Come: Don't waste the rare calm. Use it to prepare for your next level, not to coast in comfort. Notable Quotes: “When you're bored, you're not behind—you're privileged.” “The biggest battle you'll ever fight is the one with the person in the mirror.” “Sit still long enough, and you'll realize clarity always finds a way in.” “This calm season is your chance to get combat-ready for what's next.” “Don't waste your boredom. Weaponize it.”

    The original Opportunity Zone program drove more than $100B into real estate and business investment, but it also faced criticism it missed its mark, failing to spur development in the areas that needed it most.The One Big Beautiful Bill Act just made OZs permanent and it aims to fix all that, tightening the rules on what areas may be designated OZs, lowering the area median income threshold and heavily incentivizing rural development.On this week's First Draft Live, Steve Glickman — co-author of the original OZ program and CEO of Statt — said OZs have been a wild success, especially at spurring much-needed housing.“You're talking bang for the buck that's unparalleled,” he said.Glickman said the new rules will make OZ 2.0 even better, though how much it drives rural development all comes down to designating sites at “the nexus between need and investability.”Register on Bisnow.com to join next Friday's conversation live, or check back here for the conversation after it airs.

Is it smart to rest names like Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith, Jalen Ramsey, T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward and Joey Porter Jr.? Or would it be nice to see some of these players as both the offense and defense look to integrate numerous additions? They also ponder what they'd like to see from the guys who will play. How important is it that Broderick Jones show some life at left tackle, as he looks to prove that he's not the weak link in a unit that includes Mason McCormick, Zach Frazier and Troy Fautanu? Can Roman Wilson take advantage of reps as the possible No. 1 receiver in this game? And what can we expect from rookies including Derrick Harmon, Yahya Black, Jack Sawyer and Kaleb Johnson?

    The Shoes of Preparedness | Ephesians 6:15

    Daily Devotions From Greg Laurie

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 7, 2025 3:52


    “For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.” (Ephesians 6:15 NLT) The shoes that Paul described as part of the armor of God in Ephesians 6 do more than give believers the stability to maintain solid spiritual footing. They also provide mobility. These aren’t uncomfortable dress shoes that you walk carefully in so that you can keep them clean and unscuffed. These shoes allow you to move at a moment’s notice. The apostle Peter wrote, “If someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it” (1 Peter 3:15 NLT). In the original language, these words communicate the idea of giving a defense, as in a court of law. So, we should always be ready to give a defense of what we believe. We need to be ready at a moment’s notice to seize opportunities to share the gospel. The way to prepare ourselves, to “break in” the shoes that are part of our spiritual armor, is through practice. We can do that by studying and committing to memory Scripture passages that present the gospel message. The fresher these passages are in our minds, the more quickly we can access them when an opportunity arises. A good place to start our studying and memorizing is with passages such as John 3:16; John 14:6; Ephesians 2:8–9; Acts 2:38; and Romans 5:8. Another way to “always be ready to explain” our hope is to anticipate questions, objections, or concerns that people may have about the Christian faith. For example, someone may ask, “Don’t you think it’s narrow-minded to say that Jesus is the only way to God and eternal life?” If we’re prepared to answer the question before it’s asked, it may strengthen our credibility. A great way to anticipate such things is to think back to the questions, objections, or concerns we had before we became Christians. We can prepare ourselves by talking to other mature believers, drawing on their gospel-sharing experience. Christians who have been “in the trenches” can offer valuable guidance on how to approach people and what to say and what not to say. Some people say, “The Lord never opens up opportunities for me to share my faith.” I think He does, but we may not be paying attention. Opportunities are all around us. We just need to hone our skills in recognizing and seizing them. More than anything, we need to talk to people. In John 4, Jesus sat down with a woman at a well, asked her for a drink of water, began to converse with her, and transitioned into a spiritual conversation. That’s how it’s done. People will rarely will come knocking on our doors to ask what they must do to be saved. Generally, there will be other kinds of opportunities, but we need to have our spiritual antenna up, so to speak, and seize the moment when it comes. We need the spiritual shoes that allow us to move swiftly and efficiently in presenting the gospel. The armor of God is useful not only for holding our spiritual ground but also for gaining spiritual ground. We gain ground by walking through the doors of opportunity that God opens for us. Reflection question: How can you be prepared to share your faith when an opportunity arises?
