On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Dr. James Perdue, known globally as the Professor of Perseverance. At 19, one football hit dislocated three vertebrae in his neck, leaving him a quadriplegic and facing doctors who told his family he would be a burden and should be placed in a nursing home. Instead of collapsing, James built a new playbook for life. He breaks down his simple but uncompromising ABC framework for overcoming adversity. Accept adversity, Begin battling, Conquer the challenge. This is a direct conversation about grief, denial, rehab fatigue, and the moment he stopped chasing a “cure” and chose a future built on education, purpose and service. If you are navigating injury, disability, burnout or any life altering event, this episode gives you clear language, grounded mindset tools and a no excuses invitation to own your life narrative. About The Guest : Dr. James Perdue is a motivational speaker, best selling author, award winning educator, life coach and globally known as the Professor of Perseverance. After a catastrophic football injury left him a quadriplegic at 19, he spent years in hospitals, rehab centers and deep denial. Instead of accepting the role of “burden,” he built a life of impact through education, speaking and coaching. His core message. accept adversity, begin battling, conquer challenges. James now helps audiences worldwide move from victim mindset to active ownership of their future. Key Takeaways: Adversity does not need your approval. it needs your acceptance. James is clear that accepting a life changing injury does not mean liking it. It means acknowledging reality so you can take responsibility and move. His ABC framework is deliberately simple. A. Accept adversity. B. Begin battling. C. Conquer the challenge. If you can remember the alphabet up to C, you can remember the system. Acceptance is a process, not a moment. James spent about five years in denial and depression, yet he kept trying therapies, rehabs and strength work during that time. Progress and grief can coexist. After 18 different rehabs, he stopped chasing walking as the only “win” and shifted to education and life design. College, a degree and a future he could actually live became the new definition of success. Family mindset matters. his family chose a positive, solution oriented lens, doing hours of home physical therapy together instead of internalizing the “nursing home” recommendation. Ownership is non negotiable. once you are up, dressed and in your chair or body for the day, James insists it is your responsibility to use tools, the internet, communities and education to build the best life available to you. How Listeners Can Connect With Dr. James Perdue Dr. James keeps it simple. Search “Professor of Perseverance” on Google. Website You will find him on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and his own podcast under that name. Listeners can explore his talks, books and coaching through those platforms and reach out for speaking and collaboration by using the Professor of Perseverance branding online.

I've been sharing some thoughts about getting out of the boxes we put ourselves in. Boxes that keep us from the abundant life Jesus came to give us. Boxes that keep us from doing the good works he put us here to do. I've urged you to ask God to give you a vision of what he wants you to do and then stop making excuses. Break out of your boxes! I want to share some of the things I've learned and am learning along the way as I've stepped out of my box to follow God's leading in my life. Not all my bright ideas are God's passion for me. Some passions have a waiting period while God prepares me. Not everyone will share my passion, and some people will discount it or try to discourage me. Perseverance is a large part of pursuing my passion. Passions take lots of hard work and there are some days when I wish I'd never had a passion. (But not many!) Passions sometimes have a lifespan—a beginning and an ending—and I must be sensitive to know when it's time to move on. When one passion dies, another comes along. A God-given passion is always a joy; it is fulfilling; it is rewarding. Remember this when it comes to pursuing your passion and getting out of your box: If you don't go for it, it will fade, and you'll miss the blessing. Use it or lose it. If you don't pursue it, not only will you miss the blessing in this life, but you'll also miss the reward in eternity. And the more you pursue your passion, the more ability and gifts you will have to accomplish it. God is not going to waste talents on you if you're not going to use them. He's waiting to see if you are serious about pursuing the passion he has put inside you. For the sake of the Kingdom of Christ and the glory due to Jesus Christ, stop putting yourself in a box which prevents you from the good works God has planned for you to do. When you get out of that box, you will move into the abundant life Jesus promised for those who love him.

00:46 Martian ‘micro-lightning'The sounds of ‘micro-lightning' have been recorded by NASA's Perseverance rover, ending a long search for the phenomenon on Mars. A lack of suitable equipment has made it difficult to gather evidence of lightning on the red planet, but a team of researchers realized that a microphone on Perseverance should be able to pick up the characteristic sounds of electrical discharges. In total they found 55 such examples, along with signs of electrostatic interference indicative of the phenomenon. They dubbed the electric bursts ‘micro-lightning', as they are far smaller than the lighting seen on Earth, due to the thin Martian atmosphere. The team believe this finding could help better understand Martian chemistry and how best to design equipment to explore the planet's surface.Research Article: Chide et al.News and Views: Is there lightning on Mars?11:03 Research HighlightsHow the biology of male seahorses' brood pouches appears similar to mammalian pregnancy— plus, why Neanderthals' jaws were so beefy.Research Highlight: The origin of male seahorses' brood pouchResearch Highlight: Neanderthal DNA reveals how human faces form13:36 The key takeaways from COP30The UN's climate conference, COP30, came to a close last week in Brazil.

A Thanksgiving Message For Anyone Struggling Thanksgiving week always makes me pause, breathe, and step back into gratitude, but this year, that feeling hit me in a much deeper way. Maybe it was the timing, maybe it was the experience itself, or maybe it was because of everything that led me here—but this past week in Vegas reminded me exactly why I chose this life, and why I continue to push myself to live amplified, even when it hurts. Our family goes to the Formula One races every year—this was our third—and while we love the energy, the cars, and the whole spectacle of it, it is absolutely not an easy environment for someone with mobility challenges. As an above-knee amputee, I've learned that accessibility can be a coin toss on a good day. Vegas during F1 weekend takes that to a whole different level. Elevators that don't work. Escalators that suddenly shut down. Crowds compressed shoulder to shoulder. Long detours around track barriers. Rain. Stairs. More stairs. But this year came with a twist. Not only did we pack in a full day of walking, navigating the Strip, dodging people, climbing stairs, and exploring all the fanfare, but that night, after all of that, I finally checked off something that had been sitting on my bucket list for years: going to a Vegas nightclub. And I didn't just go. I went all in—heels, dancing, crowds, the whole thing. What made the night more meaningful was the backdrop of everything my body was going through. My newest socket, trimmed higher because I'd lost some femur during surgery, still hasn't fully broken in. The rubbing along my groin becomes a four-inch strip of fire by the end of the day, the kind of raw, stinging pain that makes even a shower burn. Think blister-on-your-heel level pain, except in a place you can never bandage. Add rain, cold weather, slick sidewalks, and 36,000 steps—the most I've ever walked in a single day even when I had two legs—and you can imagine how I felt by the time we walked into the club. But then the music hit. And the energy shifted. Surrounded by my husband and my kids—my favorite people—and swallowed up in the beat and the lights, I felt alive. Not amputee alive. Not “making the best of it” alive. Just fully, completely alive. In that moment, I didn't care that no one around me knew I was an amputee. I didn't care that all my weight was sinking into my good foot, making my toes tingle with pressure. I didn't care that I had a raw mark on my inner thigh or that I was balancing on heels after a marathon day of movement. I was simply living the moment I had dreamed of for years. And when I finally got home, when I finally took my leg off and felt that flood of relief wash over my whole body, I laid in bed and thought, “This… this is why I chose amputation.” I didn't take my leg off to watch life happen from the sidelines. I didn't choose this path to let pain, friction, or inconvenience dictate my happiness. I chose it to reclaim my life. And nights like that one remind me why I fought so hard to get here. But here's the part I don't ever want people to misunderstand: none of this is easy. I've had people say I make it look effortless, or that they shouldn't complain about their injuries because I “went through so much worse.” But I don't see it that way. I don't compare. I don't downplay anyone's struggle. And I definitely don't wake up immune to the hard parts of this life. What I do wake up with is a mindset that says: I chose this path, so I'm going to show up for it. That mindset is the difference between living fully and shrinking back from life. It doesn't mean there aren't setbacks. There absolutely are. I have blisters. I have raw skin. I have days where I struggle to put my leg on. I have moments where the socket fit isn't perfect. I have times where the thought of stairs makes my stomach drop. But the alternative—the idea of sitting in a hotel room,

Breakthrough in Dark Matter Research: A potential game-changing discovery has emerged in the search for dark matter. An astronomer from the University of Tokyo has detected high-energy gamma rays that align with theoretical predictions for dark matter particle collisions. This intriguing signal could provide the first direct evidence of dark matter, specifically linked to the hypothesized WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles), marking a monumental step in understanding one of the universe's greatest mysteries.Busy Week for Rocket Launches: This week is set to be a thrilling one for space enthusiasts, with a total of seven launches from five different rockets worldwide. SpaceX leads the way with three Falcon 9 missions, while a Russian Soyuz rocket will carry new crew members to the ISS. Additionally, military payloads and satellite launches from South Korea and French Guiana round out this international showcase of space exploration.Perseverance Rover's Curious Find: The Perseverance rover has discovered a sculpted rock on Mars, nicknamed Phi Staxhla, which is composed of iron and nickel—indicative of a meteorite. If confirmed, this would be the first meteorite identified by Perseverance since its landing in February 2021, offering a fascinating glimpse into the planet's history.Osiris Apophis Explorer's Earth Philip: The Osiris Apophis Explorer spacecraft, previously known for its sample return from asteroid Bennu, recently completed a gravity assist flyby of Earth. Flying within 2,100 miles of our planet, the spacecraft successfully calibrated its instruments, capturing stunning images of Earth as it prepares for its new mission targeting asteroid Apophis.Escapade Mission's First Selfies: NASA's Escapade mission, featuring twin spacecraft, has sent back its first selfies, confirming that its camera system is functioning properly. This reassuring image marks a significant milestone as the spacecraft embark on their long journey, ready to explore the mysteries of our solar system.Boiling Oceans on Icy Moons: A groundbreaking study suggests that even small icy moons, previously thought to be frozen solid, might host boiling oceans. Tidal forces could generate enough heat in their cores to keep water in a liquid state, potentially creating environments suitable for life, even in total darkness. This discovery expands the search for habitable worlds beyond traditional boundaries.For more cosmic updates, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

In this week's episode of GenX Journeys, I'm joined by the extraordinary Terry Yoffe — an 83-year-young business and communications coach, speaker, and podcaster who proves that it's never too late to grow, evolve, and reinvent yourself. Terry's story is a masterclass in resilience: from overcoming childhood challenges, to building a thriving career in sales without experience, to launching a coaching practice at 60, to starting her own podcast at 78, and now stepping onto stages as a speaker. She brings the wisdom of someone who has lived reinvention again and again — and has the mindset and energy of someone decades younger. We dive into what holds people back, how to move through fear, why age is truly just a number, and how Gen Xers (and anyone midlife and beyond) can create a powerful next chapter. I also share a big personal milestone of my own — finally finishing the Marine Corps Marathon after missing the time cutoff last year. Perseverance, discipline, and trusting the process carried me through. This conversation is packed with insight, humor, tough love, and the reminder that your best chapters may still be ahead of you. In This Episode We Talk About: My Marine Corps Marathon comeback and what it taught me Terry's lifelong pattern of reinvention (60s… 70s… 80s… and still going) How to make a career or life pivot when you feel stuck Why fear keeps us clinging to the "old trapeze" Viewing setbacks as redirection — not failure Why Gen Xers tend to feel younger than our age The power of self-advocacy and asking for what you want What companies gain when they blend younger and older generations How to turn inward and identify what's really holding you back Terry's latest chapter: speaking, inspiring, and rewriting the rules of aging Connect with Terry Yoffe https://trycoaching.com/ Facebook Instagram YouTube Extraordinary Work: Conversations About Creating Change (available on all podcast apps)

What if the coldest seasons of marriage could become the soil where joy, prayer, and gratitude take root? We explore a simple, Scripture-shaped framework—promise, purpose, path, perseverance, and praise—that helps couples move from numbness to renewed connection. Drawing on personal stories of burnout and a misfired sabbatical, plus our daughter's relentless grind through demanding courses, we get honest about distraction, isolation, and the after-holiday blues—and then we show how God's promises cut through the fog.We start with promise because God's promises are more than verses on a page; they reveal His character. From 2 Corinthians 1:20 to James 1 and Philippians 4, we unpack how promises clarify identity and reshape expectations for hard days. That clarity awakens purpose that begins today, not when emotions improve or circumstances change. Purpose then forms a path: staying near to Jesus so we can give away the love we receive from Him through small, daily acts—gentle words under stress, courageous honesty when weary, and simple prayers when words won't come.On that path, perseverance stops being a grim duty and becomes the gym where steadfast love grows. We talk about practical tools to resist boredom and bitterness: naming specific provisions from God, replacing spiraling thoughts with gratitude, and seeking godly influence instead of isolation. As perseverance matures, praise follows—sometimes as a sacrifice, often as a spontaneous response to seeing God provide what we lacked. By the end, you'll have a clear way to navigate winter-hearted days and a handful of Scriptures to keep your steps steady.Ready to warm cold spaces with hope and action?

No sabemos si existe vida más allá de la Tierra, pero, si la hubo o aún persiste en algún rincón del Sistema Solar, uno de los lugares más prometedores para buscarla es Marte. A lo largo de las últimas décadas, numerosas misiones han descendido sobre su superficie y, en la actualidad, dos rovers —Curiosity y Perseverance— exploran regiones donde, en tiempos remotos, abundó el agua líquida, un ingrediente esencial para la vida. Curiosity ha detectado carbono y moléculas orgánicas simples en rocas sedimentarias en el cráter Gale. Sin embargo, estos compuestos no bastan para demostrar un origen biológico. Los análisis indican que esas rocas permanecieron enterradas durante casi toda su historia y solo quedaron expuestas a la radiación cósmica en los últimos 78 millones de años. A partir de esta observación, un equipo de investigadores liderado por María Paz Zorzano (CAB), se planteó una cuestión fundamental: ¿podría el ADN — que es considerado un biomarcador inequívoco de la existencia de vida— resistir las duras condiciones marcianas? Escuchad la respuesta en este nuevo episodio de Hablando con Científicos.

This week we close the book of Acts by watching Paul show us what long-obedience looks like.
NASA's Perseverance rover just stumbled across something that has scientists scratching their heads – a rock on Mars that has absolutely no business being where it is.READ or SHARE: https://weirddarkness.com/mars-rock-anomaly/WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

In Acts 3, Peter used God's gift of healing to allow God to restore a lame man. Fr. Mike reminds us that God gives us gifts so he can be known in the world and all great miracles are attributed to the name of Jesus. Fr. Mike also tells us why our suffering matters, and how God wastes nothing. Today's readings are Acts 3, Romans 4-5, and Proverbs 27:1-3.
