Perfection sounds inspiring, but it often traps us in all or nothing thinking. The moment something does not go exactly as planned, many of us mentally bail, take the rest of the day off, or tell ourselves we will start over tomorrow. And sometimes we never restart at all.Instead of trying to be perfect everywhere, I walk you through a simple framework. Pick one area each day and exceed your goal in that area. Just one. When you do this, you build momentum and confidence. You start actively searching for wins, big and small. You begin seeing yourself in a more capable and positive light. And once you excel in one place, you will naturally look for more moments to rise above the baseline in the rest of your day.This is how you build a sustainable, empowering rhythm. Not by trying to be flawless, but by consistently showing yourself you can go above your minimums. Excellence compounds. It rewires how you see progress. It rewires how you see yourself.Give it a try and let me know how it goes. I always love hearing from you.Please share this episode with anyone you think would be interested in listening to it.Visit darylperrypodcast.com for links to the show page on each of the major podcast directories.

Episode 275: the death of perfection is the birth of your momentum | Perfection might feel safe, but it's the very thing holding you back. In this episode, Shayla dives deep into how letting go of the need to do things “just right” is what actually creates momentum, flow and alignment. She explores the hidden fear behind perfectionism, the difference between striving for excellence and staying stuck in paralysis, and why true confidence and clarity come after you start... not before.If you've been waiting for the “perfect” time to launch, post, create, or begin again, this episode is your permission slip to start messy, start imperfect, and just start. Because the death of perfection is not a loss; it's liberation.✨ For more tools to deepen your alignment, visit activatealignexpand.com✨ For exclusive bonus episodes and deeper chats with me, join my Patreon!Connect with Shayla✨ Aligned Access: Bonus Episodes & Exclusive Content on PatreonActivate Align Expand Guided Journal & PlannerActivate Align Expand ProgramActivate Align Expand Affirmation DeckInstagram: @shaylaquinn YouTube: www.youtube.com/shaylaquinn TikTok: @shayla.quinn Website: www.shaylaquinn.com Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/shaylaquinn Learn more about TYIL Program

What if your business could bottle memories? That's exactly what Dennis and Misty Akers set out to do when they launched The Candle Pour, Tampa's first pour-your-own candle bar. In this lively episode of "Money" Market, host Owen LaFave dives into how the husband-and-wife duo turned their leap from corporate life into a thriving, "Amazon-proof" experience that's as much about connection as it is about candles. From juggling two kids at home to building a staff culture that wows customers, the Akers share the real highs and lows of entrepreneurship. They unpack how scent branding is reshaping businesses, why experiential retail is booming, and the little details that make their shop unforgettable.

Is there a better titled film in the history of the medium than DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT (2025)? I'd argue no. It gives you an idea of what it's about -- remembering a cat. The title suggests comedy (it's a mix of comedy, drama, and horror). And it's something you'll never forget as a film title. Perfection.That's the kind of thought process my guest, filmmaker Daniel Foster, has put into all of his films, and he has such fantastic advice on filmmaking, festivals, crowdfunding, making short films, and more.Happy Halloween. I can't think of a better person and film to spend it with than Daniel and that awesomely titled film, now streaming on Alter's YouTube channel.In this episode, Daniel and I discuss:do we see the cat in DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT? YES!;how he got started in filmmaking, including film school at Temple University;are filmmaking labs a good alternative to film school?;what constitutes a bad film?what he's learned from each of the films he's made;how did they come up with the beyond brilliant title: DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?horror's role as the ultimate big-tent genre;where he got his encyclopedic knowledge of indie films;how accurate his crowdfunding campaign was and what lessons he took away for it;why he was successful on his first day of crowdfunding;why the film was released on Alter and during spooky season;what's next for him;how he comes up with titles and his critiques for short films.Daniel's Indie Film Highlight: feathers, not wings, currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter.Memorable Quotes:"Of course watching movies is the best way to learn, but specifically to watch bad movies. To learn and then analyze like, why is this bad?" "So it's always lure people in with comedy, keep them paying attention with the horror, and then hit them with the message whether it's a gut punch or a little heartfelt like we were going for with, DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?""I'm a fan of statement titles. I wanted it to be something that somebody would say in the theater.""My goal and my co-writers goal to make this a film that you would turn on every Halloween and have a fun time with, we wanted it to be a crowd pleaser."About reading the reviews: "I have a incredibly supportive fiance, so sometimes when they get to me, she turns on a spooky movie and makes us some chai tea and we just relax. But no, for the most part, I love like reading the reviews because I have to grow. I have to get better. Some of the critiques that I've gotten have been super helpful in what I'm hoping to do next.""I definitely think if you are able to have your short be between like 10 to 12 minutes is the preferred.""So I think for other shorts, if there's something else like it, there's comps that you can have and that's fine, but when the comps are so similar to what you're trying to do and there isn't anything, a new angle in it, I always think just go back to the drawing board."Links:Watch DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?Follow Daniel On InstagramSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

In this episode, Abby Kuykendall joins us to talk about hospitality as a spiritual discipline for all Christians — not just a God-given spiritual gift for a select few. We learn how to live purposefully and be more like Jesus when it comes to loving others in the area of Biblical hospitality. We dig into what real, Christ-centered hospitality looks like, how to overcome perfectionism and comparison when opening your home, and three simple qualities you can start practicing today to create a welcoming space for genuine connection. If you've ever wanted to be more hospitable but felt held back by doubt or pressure to make everything “just right,” this conversation is for you.

In hour 2 Steak and Rusty talk with former Dawg Jermaine Wiggins, and get you ready for The Cocktail Party and Falcons trip to Boston.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeMatt riffs on a surprisingly quiet moment from Rocky—the late-night scene where Rocky admits he can't beat Apollo and Adrian simply asks, “What do we do?” From that question, Matt draws a blueprint for technicians and shop owners: set realistic, self-assigned wins and stack them. Instead of living and dying by big, binary outcomes (“fixed/not fixed,” “hit benchmark/missed benchmark”), build momentum with attainable goals that compound into competence, confidence, and better shop results.Big Ideas“What do we do?” beats “You can do it!” Swapping empty hype for practical next steps creates traction.Redefine winning: Rocky doesn't win the fight; he wins by “going the distance.” Translate that to your day: hit achievable targets that move you forward.Stack small, durable improvements: The path to 40+ billed hours or top-quartile shop productivity runs through many smaller, consistent wins.Perfection limits joy: Ambition is good; impossible standards starve you of pride and progress.Benchmarks aren't commandments: Continuous improvement may matter more than someone else's KPI.Practical Takeaways for TechsScope reps, not scope heroics: Use the oscilloscope on easy cars and routine checks—pair voltage with time until it's second nature, then add a second channel and a low-amp probe where it makes sense.Thermal imager habits: Pull it out on brake inspections, wheel-bearing complaints, and on known-good vehicles to calibrate your eye for “normal.”Micro-goals to build hours: If you're billing ~20 hrs/week, aim for 25 (≈+1 hr/day). Then 30. Ask: Where can I reclaim two hours? (economy of motion, fewer tool trips, better setup).Practical Takeaways for Shop Owners/LeadsAim for +10–15% improvements first: If techs are ~60% productive, target 70%, not 100% overnight. Design the system to enable the next step.Design wins into the week: Encourage daily scope/thermal reps, short debriefs, and “wins boards” that recognize process improvements—not just hero fixes.Coach with the Adrian question: When someone says, “I can't hit that,” respond with: “What do we do?” Identify the next two concrete actions.Memorable Lines“We can define our own successes—it doesn't have to be everyone else's.”“Set wins somewhere earlier in the process, not only at the final repair.”“I hope you're proud of yourself—and that you let yourself feel it.”Chapter Guide Cold open & sponsors — NAPA Auto Tech Training, Pico TechnologyWhy Rocky still hits — the “What do we do?” sceneDefining ‘going the distance' at workTech micro-wins — scope reps, thermal habits, pairing voltage & currentShop micro-wins — stepwise productivity goals, system design > pep talksPerfection vs. pride — making room to feel accomplishedThanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingNAPA Autotech's team of ASE Master Certified Instructors are conducting over 1,200 classes covering 28 automotive topics.

How could we enter into Vrindāvan? How could we have a relationship with Kṛṣṇa? Revive our original relationship with Kṛṣṇa? The way that Yaśodā and all the residents of Vṛndāvan did. Isn't that what everybody here wants to know? Isn't this why you came to Brahmāṇḍa Ghāṭ today? This was what Rāmānanda Rāya said, and Lord Caitanya accepted. He said: jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva jīvanti san-mukharitāṁ bhavadīya-vārtām sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vāṅ-manobhir ye prāyaśo 'jita jito 'py asi tais tri-lokyām (SB 10.14.3) Brahmā said, "Throw away as far as you can throw it, any idea of figuring out Kṛṣṇa with your intellect. Make no attempt by your intellect to try to understand Kṛṣṇa, because if you could understand Kṛṣṇa by your intellect, he wouldn't be Kṛṣṇa. He would be some ordinary person. jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva jīvanti san-mukharitāṁ bhavadīya-vārtām He recommended something that all of you are doing. Do you want to know what he recommended that you're already doing and what you're doing right now? He recommended dedicating one's life to hearing about Kṛṣṇa. Why did you come on this Yātrā? You just wanted to hear about Kṛṣṇa. Admit it. I want you to admit it. All you wanted to do was hear about Kṛṣṇa, right? So he said, "Jīvanti" means "just live for this." If all you do is live, stay alive somehow or other, so that you can hear about Kṛṣṇa in the next class, your life is perfect. All you need is a little khicaḍī and some ācār and maybe a pāpaḍam, but definitely some lime or lemon. Lime is better. That's all you want, so you can stay alive, a little something to feed the fire in the belly. Then all you want is a little place to lie down. It has to be clean. Maybe a mat, a straw mat. Is that good enough? A little straw mat, maybe six and a half feet? Is that good enough? Okay, so all you need is a little khicaḍī, some ācār, maybe pāpaḍam, lime, and a mat to lie down on, so that you can stay alive. You wake up and you think, "Okay, I'm still alive, right?" And then you say, "What do I do now?" Nothing else to do but hear about Kṛṣṇa. So Brahmā said, "Make this your life," or he said, "If it is your life, that's the perfect life.

When fundraising meets humanity, transformation follows—and few express that better than Tammy Zonker, founder of Fundraising Transformed and author of Calling All Heroes. In this powerful episode, host Julia C. Patrick engages Tammy in a deep conversation about reimagining philanthropy through what she calls a human-centered mindset—a new evolution beyond donor- or community-centric models.Tammy explains, “The human-centered mindset is fundamentally about recognizing that everyone involved in the philanthropic process brings unique value—lived experience, expertise, and contribution—all of which deserve to be respected and valued.” That respect, she notes, comes alive through five principles: listening, empathy, belonging, shared values, and authentic partnership. Each principle is deceptively simple but radically powerful in a world that's become more divided and transactional.After 17 years leading Fundraising Transformed, Tammy has seen the shift from transactional giving toward connection-based relationships that sustain missions, not just budgets. Yet, she reminds us that even well-intentioned donor-centered models can reinforce inequity when organizations let large gifts steer mission or silence truth. “We never had the courage to course-correct because we feared losing the funding,” she says candidly—a line that will resonate with fundraisers everywhere.Her solution? Blend the best of both approaches. Donor-centered fundraising taught gratitude and impact reporting; community-centered fundraising elevated justice and inclusion. A human-centered model marries both, removing ego, flattening hierarchy, and restoring empathy across every role—donor, volunteer, staff, and participant.Tammy ties this philosophy to the real data crisis in philanthropy: donor retention at just 43% overall and a mere 19% for first-time givers. With fewer households donating each year, she warns that philanthropy risks becoming an elite sport. Instead, she advocates re-elevating small monthly donors, volunteers, and advocates whose collective action drives real change.The episode ends on a liberating message for nonprofit professionals: progress over perfection. Perfection, Tammy insists, “is overrated.” Real leadership requires risk, humility, and innovation—and that means acting, failing, learning, and trying again.In a time when empathy often feels endangered, Calling All Heroes reminds us that every fundraiser, donor, and community member has a heroic role to play. Humanity, it seems, is the most sustainable fundraising strategy of all.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Today's topic centers around a book written by my guest, Dr. Margo Lowy. She has researched and written about maternal ambivalence, including how to understand it and why it remains a taboo subject. We will discuss destigmatizing uncomfortable feelings and normalize the understanding that motherhood is not “all or nothing.” We'll cover the darker emotions of anger, guilt, and resentment, and we'll refute the myth of “the perfect mother” and recognize that motherhood can be viewed in different ways. Join us to learn more! Dr. Margo Lowy is a psychotherapist specializing in mothering. She is the author of Maternal Ambivalence: The Loving Moments and Bitter Truths of Motherhood and her previous book, The Maternal Experience: Encounters with Ambivalence and Love. Dr. Lowy earned her doctorate from the University of South Wales in Sydney, Australia, and she has spoken on maternal ambivalence at universities and in media interviews worldwide. She is a columnist for Psychology Today, a member of PEN America, and a former advisor to the founder of the Australian Jewish Fertility Network (AJFN). As a mom of three adult children, she makes her home in NYC with her husband.  Show Highlights: Understanding maternal ambivalence and ALL the associated emotions Motherhood, at its essence, involves complicated feelings. Unrealistic expectations of mothers In motherhood, we ONLY learn by making mistakes and repairing them. Mothering means we make mistakes and learn from them. Perfection is an impossible, rigid goal; we need humor and laughter in motherhood. Children seeing us encounter challenges and NOT being perfect Importance of discernment in social media messages Finding your team and community Emulating our mothers vs. finding our own mothering style  When it's hard to give yourself a pat on the back Understanding the value of difficult emotions Indicators of maternal ambivalence An example of advocating for YOUR motherhood journey Dr. Lowy's practical advice to mothers Resources: Connect with Dr. Margo Lowy  Website, Instagram Dr. Lowy's Books  Maternal Ambivalence: The Loving Moments and Bitter Truths of Motherhood The Maternal Experience: Encounters with Ambivalence and Love Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visitcdph.ca.gov.

Join Coach Paul for an inspiring and high-energy solo episode focused on the core philosophy of "Be Better Every Day." Coach Paul dives into what this standard truly means. Committing to just one degree or one percent of improvement daily, both personally and professionally. He shares insights on why everyone is a leader, regardless of their title, and emphasizes the crucial role of continuous self-improvement and learning as the non-negotiable trait of all great leaders. The episode encourages you to take ownership of your results, relinquish control to foster growth, and define your personal and organizational "Code of Honor" to raise standards and build a lasting legacy. Key Discussion Points Be Better Every Day The core philosophy of striving for one percent better or one degree of improvement every single day. Perfection isn't the goal. Continuous improvement as a parent, spouse, business leader, or human is. Everyone is a Leader Leadership is a choice and a role everyone can play, no matter your chosen profession. Great leaders never stop working on themselves, embodying the saying, "big head falls over" always be learning and be a humble student. The Growth Mindset A true leader must continuously learn and hire coaches/mentors; if you're not growing, you're "dying." Team members are inspired when they see their leader never stop learning, developing a culture of continuous growth. Setting Your Code of Honor Leadership without standards is chaos; a leader must continuously drive the vision and standards. Your Code of Honor includes non-negotiables like discipline, respect, integrity, and ownership. Prioritizing fitness of mind and body as a non-negotiable part of being “you.” Challenging Questions for Self-Reflection Coach Paul wraps up with questions to help you be more self aware. Be Better Every Day!

In today's episode, I join Nevaeh Grace of Pain and Revival to talk about redefining happiness, learning from loss, and letting faith guide success. I share how losing everything in 2008, including my mom's house, reshaped my purpose and inspired a mission to empower over a billion people to be happy. We discuss why giving 100% in everything leads to exhaustion, the importance of learning lessons through failure, and how happiness comes from loving what you don't like about what you love. For teens especially, I explain why patience, balance, and doing your best within your daily circumstances matter more than perfection.

Most Amazon sellers chase precision when they should be chasing progress.   In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy unpack what it really takes to simplify your systems, trust your numbers, and finally reach the point where the business can pay you.   They break down three powerful frameworks that connect structure, clarity, and growth:   The Three ASIN Types: How to turn chaos into clarity and start treating listings like data, not drama. Profit Clarity: Why chasing perfect numbers kills momentum and how discipline compounds faster than data accuracy. The Profit Profile Framework: What to do when you are profitable on paper but still not getting paid.   As Winston Churchill reminded us, “Perfection is the enemy of progress.”   This episode is your reminder that the fastest path to clarity and cash flow is testing more ASINs, not perfecting the spreadsheet.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Is it true that IP complaints are really no big deal?"   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/A8HnqMH8WoI   Show note LINKS:    SilentSalesMachine.com - Text the word “free” to 507-800-0090 to get a free copy of Jim's latest book in audio about building multiple income streams online (US only) or visit https://silentjim.com/free11   SilentJim.com/bookacall - Schedule a FREE, customized and insightful consultation with my team or me (Jim) to discuss your e-commerce goals and options.   My Silent Team Facebook group. 100% FREE! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam - Join 82,000 + Facebook members from around the world who are using the internet creatively every day to launch and grow multiple income streams through our exciting PROVEN strategies!

In this milestone episode, Kalena James and Julie Deem look back on the early days, the tech hurdles that kept many women out of podcasting, the messy seasons that almost took the show out, and the quiet choices that made it shatterproof. They share honest stories of what it is like finding your voice, building a business that empowers other voices, showing up through shutdowns and life changes, and trusting a vision that keeps circling back home. If you need proof that small, consistent steps become a legacy, this is it.Episode Highlights:Consistency plus faith over time creates lasting impact.Your voice is a catalyst for other voices, not a competitor to them.Technical comfort is a gate; help people walk through it.You do not need to feel qualified to serve; you grow qualified by serving.The show survived because the mission outranked the mess.Perfection is not required; presence is.A saturated market still has room for your unique angle and story.Legacy is built in ordinary weeks, not highlight reels.Learn more about the latest tool for dynamic professionals in the self-improvement industry, LyfQuest.

If you've ever waited for the perfect time to start something, this episode is for you. I'm sharing how perfection held me back from returning to this podcast and why choosing progress instead made all the difference.You'll also hear five practical tips to help you move forward even when things aren't perfect.

In this week's training, I shared one of the most valuable lessons I've learned: consistency will always outperform perfection. Too many people wait for the perfect time, the perfect plan, or the perfect feeling before they start—and that's exactly why they stay stuck. The truth is, success is built through small, consistent actions done every day, not through flawless execution once in a while. When you focus on showing up instead of showing off, you build momentum, confidence, and clarity that compound over time. Remember, it's not about doing everything right—it's about doing the right things consistently. Start where you are, stay steady, and let time and repetition do their work.
