Welcome to Dark Work Daily! Tune in to explore the secrets of resilience and perseverance needed to unlock your full potential.

What if the door you've been waiting to walk through… isn't in the future? What if it's right here — labeled simply: Now. In this episode of the Strong Within Affirmation Podcast, we unpack a viral post about choosing between six magical doors — time travel, money, youth, and more. But instead of playing the game, I chose a seventh option: presence. This isn't about rejecting ambition or pretending life is perfect as-is. It's about questioning why we chase fantasies that leave us empty… and how the greatest change might come not from what we wish for — but from what we wake up to. If you've ever felt stuck between dreaming of more and wondering if this is enough… this episode is for you.   Help Support The Strong Within Affirmation Podcast By Going To: www.strongwithin.com/support (You can also get the transcripts there, worksheets, or other bonuses I am including with the podcast) Thanks for listening.  I'm sending great energy your way as we become Strong Within together, Holistic Performance and Personal Development Coach- Chris O'Hearn   My links: https://linktr.ee/strongwithin  Contact info- email: chris@strongwithin.com  phone: 865-221-7239Let's connect on social media: www.facebook.com/thechrisohearn  www.instagram.com/thechrisohearn  Music by: - Zest by basematic (c) copyright 2011 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. - I Have Often Told You Stories (guitar instrumental) by Ivan Chew (c) copyright 2013 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license.

What makes a good elder's wife? Thankfully, we're not left to wonder—as she “must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things” (1 Tim. 3:11). In this podcast, Scott Brown and Jason Dohm welcome guest Alexander Strauch to break down these four elements. Strauch explains that an elder's wife must, first, be worthy of respect. Second, she must not hurt others through loose or malicious talk. Third, she must be characterized by sound and stable judgment. And, finally, like the Proverbs 31 woman, she must show herself faithful in all her pursuits (Prov. 31:11). Perfection is not the standard—yet these qualities are what's needed in an elder's helpmeet.

In this series Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman covers the book titled, 'Essentials of Islamic Spirituality' previously known as 'The Path to Perfection'. Link to book: https://www.whitethreadpress.com/publication/essentials-of-islamic-spirituality/ At a time when the discourse surrounding Islam is generally inauthentic and shallow, The Essentials of Islamic Spirituality presents a much-needed antidote. It goes beyond simply diagnosing the spiritual ailments that afflict us; it puts forward means of eradicating them, so that we as individuals, as communities, and as an Umma can reap the benefits of a spiritual way of life. White Thread Press makes this invaluable work available in elegant and moving prose, while remaining true to its traditional origins. The result, a profound awakening of the heart, is within the reach of all. Those new to the spiritual sciences will delight in the range and profundity of the psychological and spiritual disciplines of Islam, while those already on the Path will gain new insights and perspectives. Shaykh Masihullah Khan, a renowned student of the eminent Mawlana Ashraf ‘Ali Thanawi, wrote Shari'at & Tasawwuf to pass on to future generations of Muslims the numerous benefits of his teacher's wisdom. The teachings gathered here are notes of admonition and encouragement written by a man who has walked the path to his Creator; and at their core, these teachings are sustenance for the ailing hearts and souls of our time.

By Jorge de Campos - Are we well established in Christ's basic doctrines? Are we growing to PERFECTION? Or are we taking a position that says: "I am in the Church, I have been baptized and I am doing my part"?

We'll take a peek into the Christian's wardrobe today on The Dwelling Place, and see what we are to wear!

The Perfection Trap: Why "Everything's Perfect" Isn't Happiness Do you ever feel like true happiness is just out of reach, perhaps because everything isn't perfectly aligned all the time? We're diving into the secret belief many of us hold: that happiness equals constant perfection, and why that idea might actually be holding us back. Join us as we explore how to redefine happiness beyond the flawless facade. New Happiness Podcast episode with Dr. Robert Puff, Newport Beach Psychologist

Michael J. Fox said: “I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for; perfection is God's business.” So are you reaching for perfection?

Send us a textThere's no denying it — "Weird Al" Yankovic is more culturally relevant now than ever. He's not JUST a peerless parodist and national treasure, either. He's also a straight-up documentarian of several distinct eras of popular culture. And nowhere is this more apparent than in his polka medleys; accordion-heavy pastiches that draw from some of the most popular songs of their respective eras to create magical mosaics that are always greater than the sum of their parts. So in the wake of Al's sold-out Madison Square Garden engagement (and since it's been a full 100 episodes since he's been a subject), Saint and Jim are wrapping up the Trilogy of Triumph by breaking down these polka-piles into discrete components, and holding them up to the mirror of history to see how they stand up. Spoiler Alert: STILL AWESOME.

Title: 20 Brutal Truth Bombs I Wish I Knew in My 20s | Part 2 Summary: In this thought-provoking video, the speaker lays out 20 impactful lessons that serve as vital truths for achieving personal growth and success. Ranging from the importance of gratitude to actionable steps for overcoming complacency, these insights aim to challenge viewers' perspectives on life and instill a sense of urgency to take control of their destinies. Key themes include the necessity of gratitude for happiness, the importance of seeking mentorship, and the significance of taking decisive action instead of waiting for the “perfect moment.” The speaker stresses the idea that relationships are built on effort, the value of time as a non-renewable resource, and emphasizes personal growth through embracing solitude and cutting out toxic influences. Ultimately, the speaker urges the audience to adopt a proactive mindset and build a fulfilling life, free from the comfort zones that often limit potential.

Value Mentorship: Asking for help from mentors accelerates learning and growth, showing that seeking guidance is a strength, not a weakness. Act Now: There's no ideal moment to start; taking messy action is crucial for progress. Relationships Matter: The idea of a ‘soulmate' is a myth; strong relationships are built through hard work and mutual respect. Time is Precious: Time is the only non-renewable resource; once spent, it cannot be regained. Embrace Solitude: Learning to be alone is fundamental to personal growth and discovering one's true self. Flexibility Over Rigidity: Life is unpredictable and plans may need to change; being adaptable is essential for success. Transcript: (Seth Bradley) if you survive part one welcome back but fair warning these next 10 bombs they're sharper they're louder and they might just punch you right in your ego it isn't feel-good advice this is not motivational fluff these are the lessons I wish someone drilled into my head when I was starting out so sit up lock in and let's finish what we started let's go gratitude is the secret to happiness you're chasing happiness in all the wrong places the secret to being truly happy is simpler than you think happiness doesn't come from money or   success or status it comes from gratitude when you're grateful for what you already have you stop obsessing about what you don't gratitude shifts your perspective instead of focusing on all the problems you have you focus on the possibilities you focus on the things that you have and that doesn't just make you happier it makes you more effective it makes you more productive it gets you in the right mindset to optimized moving forward grateful people are more resilient they're more resourceful they're more likely to   succeed hey and look people like us are never going to be complacent or satisfied and that's not what we're talking about we're talking about gratitude regardless we are hard driving people we're obsessed with success and we're obsessed with the next thing but that life in itself can lead you to an unhappy life if you don't have gratitude and respect for what you already have and what you've accomplished even today I'm moving towards Big goals eight nine figure exits and I'm focused I'm driving   I desire more I always have I always will but I do remind myself how far I've come and the incredible friends and family and people I have around me my good health and countless other amazing things in my life and that keeps me happy it keeps me centered it keeps me in the right mindset so that I can focus on my big goals and to keep driving forward start every day by appreciating what you already have it won't just make you happier it'll make you Unstoppable number 12 ask questions ask for help get   a mentor stop being so damn proud stop acting like you know everything you do not know everything you don't and if you think asking for help makes you weak you're wrong success uccessful people don't succeed alone they ask questions they seek advice and they surround themselves with people who've already done what they're trying to do a mentor isn't just someone who gives you answers it's someone who shortens your learning curve calls you out on your [ __ ] and helps you avoid mistakes asking for help   isn't a sign of weakness it's a sign of strength a sign of confidence it shows your serious about leveling up constantly seek advice constantly find those people and engage with them in my 20s I rarely asked any questions I tried to figure everything out myself I was too damn proud to seek help it stymied my growth today totally different mindset I pay tens of thousands of dollars every single year to coaches to be parts of masterminds and to surround myself with people who can help me level up faster and to avoid mistakes don't be   afraid to ask the right advice from the right Mentor at the right time can change everything number 13 don't wait for the perfect moment it does not exist you're waiting for the stars to aign you're wasting your damn time there's no such thing as the perfect moment conditions will never be ideal you're never going to feel fully ready and if you keep waiting for everything to be perfect you're going to be waiting forever or you're just going to miss the opportunity entirely the people who succeed consistently are the   ones who take action they're the ones who start before their ready they take messy action they figure it out as they go they build the plane on the runway and they adjust along the way I've launched over a dozen businesses and each time I had no clue what I was doing sure I get better at it each time I launch a new business I get better at evaluating the risk and the reward and whether or not it's a great opportunity or just another opportunity but each time that I jumped in I made mistakes and I figured it out if you recognize a   great opportunity the time to take messy action is now not later fortune favors the Bold take action start now 14 there's no such thing as the one this one will probably be a little bit controversial and if my wife's listening you get it if you're out there searching for your soulmate I've got bad news that person does not exist there's no single m iCal person out there who completes you who fixes all your problems and makes your life perfect relationships aren't about finding the one they're about finding someone who   compliments you who works together with you to build an incredible life together there are billions of people on this planet so guess what there might be more than one that could work out for you the best relationships are Partnerships they're not built on fate or fairy tales or anything like that they're built on effort and communication and mutual respect stop searching for Perfection and start focusing on connection when the chemicals fade what do you got left if that doesn't sound romantic then so   be it that's the truth my wife and I we make an incredible team we work on our relationship and we're willing to do so we have trust we have boundaries we love and respect each other and that's all that matters the one isn't found it's created through hard work and shared Vision 15 I told you I'd get back to this one time moves faster than you think blink in a decade is gone let me tell you how to stop wasting the most precious asset you have and that's time time is your only nonrenewable resource   you can make more money you can build more businesses you can meet new people you can find new opportuni ities but you can't buy back your time the problem is most people live like they've got all the time in the world they say I'll do it tomorrow or I'll do it next week or I'll do it when I'm retired they procrastinate they waste their days they put off their dreams and then one day they wake up and wonder where the hell all the time went don't let that be you and on top of that your perception of   time speeds up as your mind slows down and guess what your mind is slowing down right now it's doing it right now you'll continue to do that every single minute you're alive enjoy being bored now you won't even know what that is later your future 60-year-old billionaire self would give up every scent to be your poor ass right now let that sink in so stop wasting time on things that don't matter use your time wisely because once it's gone it's gone forever 16 learn how to be alone if you can't stand to be alone you're never going to   figure out who you really are you're never going to know what you're made of being alone isn't loneliness it's time for clarity it's the space where you can learn to understand what drives you your goals what you really care about and what what you really care about most people are so afraid of being alone that they fill their lives with noise Doom scrolling meaningless relationships distractions but real growth happens when you Embrace Solitude that's where you're going to find your strength and   your confidence when I first moved to California I didn't know a single person in La I lived alone ate alone I went to bars alone I know it sounds sad I learned a lot about myself and I'm a more confident person now because of it I'm not afraid of being alone in fact I love it I love going to a new city or city that maybe I haven't explored before by myself learning things seeing things talking to strangers answering to nobody learn to love your own company when you do you'll never need anyone else to validate you all right here we   go 17 cut out people who don't Elevate you I'm not even going to repeat it but you know what it is the five people around you right and keeping toxic people around is like drinking poison and wondering why you feel bad let me tell you why you need to cut the dead weight out of your life your environment determines your success if you're surrounded by complainers pessimists and lazy unmotivated complacent people who don't believe in you they'll hold you down and they're going to kill you slowly it's not about being heartless   it's about protecting your energy if someone isn't adding value to your life if they're not helping you grow and supporting your goals then they're holding you down and the worst part unfortunately sometimes that's the people that are closest to you close friends that you grew up with even family members but look some people change some people stay the same some people grow some people don't it's a fact of life and this life is too short to be held back and to not fulfill your potential I used to hang out with people   who thought working a 9 to-5 and partying every weekend was the peak of life right when I started hanging out with multi-millionaires with doers with Builders with winners I had no choice but to level up my own life your circle should inspire you it should challenge you it should push you forward if it doesn't it's time to let those people go surround yourself with winners number 18 finding yourself is a waste of time books and movies Floy flowy gurus out there they'll say you need to find yourself you need to discover who you   are I mean what the hell does that even mean you don't you're not lost you're just avoiding doing the damn work here's the thing you don't need to find yourself like you're some treasure buried in the sand you build yourself you create yourself you create the best version of yourself through action and effort and experience people who spend years or their whole lives finding themselves are usually just spinning their wheels they're avoiding the uncomfortable things that they don't want to do or the uncomfortable truth   that that prevents them from growing those people are lazy those people are losers stop searching for some magical answer and start doing stuff start doing the hard things that's how you figure out who you are when I quit medical school I didn't have a grand plan or a Clear Vision I focused on bettering myself in whatever form I could taking business classes getting my MBA even trying to teach myself mandering at one point but I didn't just sit there I didn't sit around trying to find myself I got to work I tried new things I   learned new skills and I let the process shape who I am that's how I built the life I have now you're not found you're made stop searching and start building 19 stop following your heart and listen to your brain brain follow your heart sounds cute but your heart can't think it can't reason and it can't make rational decisions start using your brain if you actually want to get somewhere your heart is emotional it's impulsive and it's shortsighted it'll lead you into bad relationships and bad business deals wasting time and bad   decisions that you're going to regret your brain on the other hand knows how to think critically it can take its time it can weigh options and it can make decisions based on logic and facts now I'm just going to say there's a little caveat here that doesn't mean you ignore your emotions it means letting your brain take the lead and using your heart really as a kind of a gut check in the background but not actually making the final decision the older I get the more I make decisions with my brain and the   better my decisions become and it's not a coincidence anytime I feel rushed or I feel emotional you know what I'm talking about you get forced into a sale or you get forced into giving an answer if I feel rushed or I feel emotional about something I just stop I stop I think and I wait and then when the emotion dissipates whether that's a minute or a day or a week then I make a rational decision based on facts and reason but also listening to my gut your heart feels but your brain leads remember that   use them both but your brain is the leader trust it here we are at the Finish Line number 20 your life plan is a waste of time life doesn't care about your 10-year plan or your long-term plan or your white pick fences we're taught at an early age to pick what we want to do to marry who we want to be with forever to find our passion to work a million years and retire when you're too old to enjoy it but here's the reality life is unpredictable you can plan every detail but it's not going to turn out like you plan it the   people who thrive in this life are the people who not only accept change but they welcome it the fastest adapting people the people who can deal with the most adversity and problems and continue on those are the ones who experience massive success it's called resilience your life plan is a comfort blanket not a road map it's fine to have goals but don't get so attached to this exact plan that you miss opportunities or you can't handle curveballs be flexible not rigid when I was five I wanted to be a monster   truck driver when I was 15 I wanted to play in the NBA when I was 20 I wanted to be a doctor I don't know if I ever wanted to be a lawyer but here I am leveraging my knowledge and skill set to create massive wealth and build a life In My Dreams enjoying all of it the life plan changes you've got to be flexible your life plan is not the final plan be resilient be flexible adapt pivot Thrive and there you have it 20 truths that'll hit you hard if you're paying attention life isn't about Comfort it's not about   approval it's not about patiently waiting it's about taking risks it's about making moves and doing whatever it takes to build something that actually matters you've got two choices now you can nod your head and say h wow that's great and go right back to doing the same old [ __ ] that kept you stuck for how long or you can take what you've learned look in the mirror and say I'm done with average let's go the truth is no one's coming to save you not your parents boss not your friends not the

In this solo episode, I'm unpacking a concept that many entrepreneurs don't realize is slowing them down: the illusion of perfection. Perfection doesn't actually exist—because it's always filtered through someone else's perception. When we cling to our own version of “perfect,” we often miss the mark with clients, waste time trying to meet imaginary standards, and stall the momentum our businesses need to grow. I'm sharing:- How perfectionism shows up in our marketing, branding, and client relationships- Why understanding your client's perception matters more than your own- Tangible ways to shift from chasing flawless execution to building real momentum- The difference between being efficient and being “perfect”- How releasing perfection gave me my time, energy, and ideal clients back Whether you're a designer, coach, service provider, or agency owner—this episode will help you reframe your idea of success and finally get out of your own way! Let's rethink what “perfect” really means in business!! Want more support?- I'm currently accepting one new 1:1 client.

The source behind overachieving, control and perfection

Human nature and the possibility of utopiaThe idea of utopia - of a perfect society devoid of suffering and inequality - is planted firmly in the human imagination and psyche. From pre-biblical times to Thomas More and communism and beyond, widely disparate groups have attempted to plan or create a utopia. But is it achievable? And if not, why not?Join unconventional psychologist Paul Bloom as he makes the case for the impossibility of utopia given certain key features of human nature. We are not meant, he argues, for perfect harmony and equality. Paul Bloom is a researcher of perversion and suffering, so his perspective brings interesting insights on the question. But what do you think? Can we ever achieve utopia?

Remember the days of arcades filled with quarters jingling in your pocket? The satisfaction of finally beating that impossible level after dozens of tries? The Power Point Podcast crew takes you on a nostalgic journey through gaming history while exploring what's capturing their attention today.Jim reveals his ongoing obsession with Retro Mania Wrestling, a pixel-perfect throwback to arcade wrestling games that's about to release exciting DLC featuring legends like Macho Man Randy Savage. Meanwhile, Keith shares how racing games have become a competitive family affair in his household, with his daughter mysteriously dominating every time trial despite his best efforts. Scott confesses his frustration with overly complex control schemes, championing simplicity in gaming design that lets players focus on fun rather than memorizing button combinations.The conversation winds through cherished memories of classic board games—Mousetrap's elaborate Rube Goldberg contraptions, Operation's nerve-wracking buzzer (which the hosts lament isn't as shocking in modern versions), and Perfection's anxiety-inducing timer. There's a shared concern that today's digital-native children are missing out on these analog experiences, with many preferring to watch others play games on YouTube rather than engaging directly. As one host puts it: "Kids aren't using their imagination anymore."From arcade experiences to the emerging frontier of virtual reality gaming, the discussion showcases how gaming continues to evolve while still fulfilling our fundamental desire for play, competition, and escape. Whether you're a casual gamer, a dedicated enthusiast, or someone who hasn't picked up a controller in years, this episode will rekindle your appreciation for the universal joy of games.Tune in to hear about Black Sabbath's epic final concert, upcoming collaborations with other podcasts, and which childhood games still haunt the hosts decades later.

What if the thing you thought was saving you… was also holding you back?When Em broke her foot earlier this year, she was forced to slow down, and what she found in the stillness changed everything. In this deeply personal solo episode, she shares the moment that made her reevaluate what she was chasing, why she chose to stop taking Xanax after 15 years, and how her dogs helped her redefine peace in a way that finally feels like home.

Do you have big dreams for your wellness business, but find yourself hesitating before you take action? Thinking things like: What if this program doesn't fill? What if I try something new and it feels awkward? What if I put myself out there and it doesn't go as planned?  These "what if" scenarios keep you researching, planning, and perfecting instead of actually moving forward.  You're not lazy or uncommitted – you're just caught in the perfection mindset that says everything has to go right the first time, or it means you're not cut out for this. But what if there was a completely different way to think about challenges and mistakes? In this episode, you'll discover: The two mindsets that determine whether challenges become roadblocks or rocket fuel for your growth How the problem-solving mindset transforms every obstacle into an opportunity to level up The exact process to shift from "Why is this happening to me?" to "How is this happening FOR me?" Four powerful questions that instantly activate your problem-solving brain Why your future self already has the answers you need (and how to access them) How to recognize when you're stuck in perfectionist paralysis and what to do about it  Stop letting imperfect outcomes convince you that you're not cut out for bigger things. Your challenges aren't evidence that you should quit – they're invitations to grow stronger, smarter, and discover your innate capability. When you learn to see every problem as solvable and every setback as setup for your comeback, you'll stop avoiding opportunities and start embracing them. Your breakthrough is waiting on the other side of that problem you're trying to avoid. Let's figure this out together! Hit play, and let's get started!

Another OG to my booksta career and I am so happy to pair these two together today, Kaira Rouda. She is also part of the Killer Author Club and a thriller queen. She has mastered the "bad people doing bad things" theme and it is no different in her latest, Jill is Not Happy. The perfect description for this book aside from the deadly cat and mouse, sscary marriage saving road trip is Jill is "Ripley in yoga pants". Perfection. We had so much fun catching up and talking about what Kaira loves about her characters and how Jill kept popping up on her shoulder this book tour. She is so bright and bubbly, I always question how she can go to the dark side! LOL.

This episode discusses why perfection is a dangerous and fragile goal, explaining how striving for 100% leads to unsustainable outlier states. It highlights how setting perfection as a bar can cause commitments to break and plans to fail due to a lack of slack, and offers strategies like building redundancy and planning with slack to achieve goals more effectively without relying on perfection.Uncover why perfection is a dangerous and fragile goal, as it often requires exorbitant, unsustainable effort and creates outlier states that are unlikely to be maintained, referencing the "Wedies effect" where things tend to regress to the mean.Learn how planning for 100% utilisation or setting perfection as a commitment can lead to fragility, causing plans to fail when unexpected changes occur or leading to giving up altogether once a "perfect" streak is broken.Discover practical strategies to avoid fragile perfectionism, such as planning with slack to accommodate change and building redundancy into your systems and personal commitments for more robust outcomes.Explore why actively avoiding requirements or expectations of perfection is crucial, as investing in it can be an exponential or even asymptotic step, leading to an unsustainable and fragile state.Note: sorry about the plane noise in the background. I decided to publish it, since it's imperfect (and that's kind of making the point!).

This is Matt Reustle. Today we are replaying our Breakdown of Patek Philippe. You never own a Patek Philippe. You merely watch over it for the next generation. I'll say it's the best marketing campaign in history, a campaign appropriate for the world's premier watchmaker and a watchmaker worthy of a Business Breakdown. Our guest today is John Reardon from Collectability. John has worked at Sotheby's, the auction house, and spent a decade at Patek Philippe in the early 2000s. He continues to write for Patek Philippe Magazine while he has launched Collectability, a brand dedicated to vintage and preowned Patek Philippe. We cover what makes Patek such a special brand. There is an almost 200-year history in craftsmanship and countless patents (like that self-winding mechanism that powers all automatic watches today.) What Philippe Stern did in 1989 could be worthy of a 10-episode series, so there is much to learn from this episode. Please enjoy this breakdown of Patek Philippe.

Do you ever find yourself thinking, “No one can know I'm struggling with this”? I've been there. But this thought might be one of the most dangerous beliefs you can carry as a coach. It's normal to think you can't show vulnerability, but what I've learned over time is that transparency doesn't make us less of a coach. It makes us more human and more relatable to our clients.   In this episode, I dive into why trying to hide our fails from our clients only isolates us, increases pressure, and ultimately weakens our ability to serve them. I'll also share how my own struggles with transparency have shaped my approach to coaching, and how embracing vulnerability has created deeper connections with my clients. Perfection is a myth, and it's time we start normalizing the messy parts of coaching and business.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.lindsaydotzlafcoaching.com/245
