You get excited. You tell people. They have opinions. Now you're off course. In this episode, Jake makes the case for keeping your mouth shut — until the work speaks for itself.Everyone has an opinion about what you should be doing. Your friends, your family, your mentors — even people five steps ahead of you. The moment you open your mouth about a plan, you're inviting all of it in. And sometimes the noise isn't worth it.In this episode of Move Faster, Jake gets into the power of silence — not as a communication strategy, but as a creative survival skill. He shares what happened when he casually mentioned he was starting a weight loss journey to two friends in the fitness space. He didn't ask for advice. He knew what he was doing. He'd lost 30–40 pounds multiple times. Didn't matter — the unsolicited opinions came anyway, and suddenly he was on the defensive about his own plan.The lesson isn't to go dark on everyone. It's to be strategic about when you share, who you share with, and what you're actually asking for when you do. Jake breaks down three ways to handle it — stay quiet until the work is done, brace for the feedback and hold your ground, or set the terms upfront by telling people what you need from the conversation.He also talks about what it takes to actually trust yourself as an artist — which is harder than any of this — and why silence is one of the few tools that protects your instincts long enough to act on them.In this episode:Why announcing your plans can quietly derail themThe three ways to handle the opinions you didn't ask forHow Jake and his wife set communication terms before every hard conversationWhy artists have to protect their instincts — and how silence helps do thatThe journal trick and other ways to "say it" without opening the door

"The quiter you become, the more you can hear. " - Ram Dass

SILENCE is one of the most underrated forms of power. In a world that constatntly demands noise, opinions, and reactions, choosing silence creates space for clarity, control, and deeper understanding. It allows you to observe rather than react, to listen instead of assume, and to respond with intention instead of emotion. Silence can diffuse conflict, reveal truth, and strengthen your presence without a single word being spoken.

Send us Fan MailThe hardest pushback often comes from the people closest to you—so what if that resistance is actually confirmation you're on the right path?In this episode of Unarmored Talk, I sit down with Rachel Singletary—minister, facilitator, and leader—to talk about what obedience really looks like when your calling demands growth, discipline, and time. We get honest about the refining process people don't post—the part that humbles you, stretches you, and challenges your relationships.Rachel breaks down why resistance often starts at home, how to stay grounded when people bring up your past, and why being “qualified” isn't the requirement for your calling. We also discuss the power of silence—why “no answer is an answer,” and how staying calm protects your peace and purpose.If you care about faith, purpose, leadership, and mental fitness, this conversation will meet you where you are.

Many people avoid silence because it strips away distraction and forces them to face what they've been outrunning. Distraction is often less about entertainment and more about emotional avoidance. Silence helps quiet external noise so your intuition, subconscious mind, and authentic truth can be heard. A daily silence practice can strengthen clarity, authenticity, confidence, certainty, and commitment. Silence creates space to process emotions, thoughts, and internal tension rather than suppressing them. Even small moments of intentional silence throughout the day can create meaningful personal and performance breakthroughs. Key Quotes: "Silence is where clarity lives. Silence is where intuition gets louder. Silence is where you meet yourself honestly and sometimes for the first time in years." "Most people aren't addicted to their phone, their music, the podcast, the to-do list, the busyness for the sake of being busy. They're addicted to distraction." "The very thing that you are avoiding is the exact thing that unlocks deeper awareness, clearer thinking, emotional freedom, and sustainable high performance." "Sitting in silence and solitude as a daily practice is a guaranteed way to connect with yourself, to realign yourself, to ensure that you are remaining true to yourself." "The practice of sitting with yourself in silence creates clarity, alignment, confidence, and certainty."

Heaven holds its breath as the final seal is opened and the prayers of the saints rise like incense. God's judgment on evil begins—not apart from, but in response to the faithful prayers of His people. Our prayers matter more than we know.

The answers you were looking for are in the silence you're avoiding. We live in a world of constant noise. Online, on screens, in stores, in airpods, glasses, everywhere you turn. In fact, now when you are getting gas for your car….you are subjected to ads! Noise reduces discomfort, distracts us, and soothes the anxieties of life. The question is not am I surrounded, inundated, drowning in noise….because we are. The question is how can we reduce the noise around us? How can we remove the unneeded? How can we be quiet enough to know what our own voice sounds like? How do we know what we really want, when we are constantly being marketed to? How can we know what we really want if our algorithm is being curated for us? How can we break away from the well meaning, self serving, snake oil, propagandized, agenda driven, sales driven, self bias confirming, dopamine pumping, downpour of noise? I ask, not because I have a six step method to sell you, or asking for a friend, because I'm struggling with it just like you….and just like you I'd like to enjoy some peace of quiet….without the pain of boredom or the existential dread that comes along with it…….Except I don't think that is part of the deal. It's not boredom that we are avoiding ... .its our own thoughts. The nagging ones, the bad ones, the ones on repeat, the ones that true are false we avoid like the plague with a constant barrage of distractions. That's what's standing in our way of growth, of comfortability in our own heads, and activating the massive potential we have put on pause. How do we get from behind the screen and into full view of life right now?  1. I'm biased but martial arts is a great place to start. We are forced to be present, in community, engaged and actively listening, learning, and thinking. We are engaged in problem solving….and not problem avoidance.  2. Being outside vs being online.You don't have to take a picture every time you are outside….in fact you should leave your phone behind. We so rarely just walk, no noise, no phone, no agenda, just walking mindfully and enjoying the present moment. 3. Sleeping away from the phone. For me personally this is the toughest! But the light, the noise, the distraction ruins our sleep, our chance to get good rest and a chance for us to recall the day, it lessons, and the chance for gratitude. The quote that I cannot escape, and maybe you will get some value from it too is this: “The answers you are looking for are in the silence you are avoiding”And this one from ram dass: “the quieter you become the more you can hear.”What answers are you avoiding, what could you accomplish with a life off pause, what is hiding from you behind the noise and is waiting for you to be quiet enough to hear it? However busy your day is, whatever is going on ....I hope you take, make, or steal a moment for silence, for reflection, or simply just to breathe. There is a power in stillness that motion cannot replicate.

Day 1 of 57 | Mind Empowerment: The Power of Silence

Hello, dear ones!In this episode, I wanted to share with you something that has deeply transformed my life recently—how silence can be a powerful tool for connecting with our true selves and the world around us.Here are a few thoughts I felt called to pass along:Silencing the Noise: Lately, I've been learning how powerful it is to quiet the noise around us so we can really connect with ourselves. It's a gift we all have, and when we take the time to listen, we can hear what's truly important.Trust the Journey: No matter what's ahead, I encourage you to trust the process. Life has a way of unfolding, and we can always find answers if we stay curious and open to what each moment brings.Shedding Our Masks: We all want to be loved and seen for who we truly are, not for the masks we sometimes wear. In the past, I've used masks to feel more worthy, but I've come to understand that real love and connection only come when we are authentic.Nature's Wisdom: Nature has a way of reminding us who we are. We often think of ourselves as separate from the natural world, but we are nature. When we take time to reconnect with nature, we're reconnecting with ourselves. It's essential for our well-being.Small Practices, Big Impact: It doesn't take much—just a few minutes each day of stillness, whether it's through meditation, a walk in nature, or simply taking time to breathe. I've found that small, consistent moments of quiet can truly help us tap into our deeper wisdom.The Tools We Already Have: We each carry the tools for self-discovery within us—whether it's through breathing, journaling, or pulling an angel card for guidance. I've discovered how important it is to take time for silence and listen to what's inside. The answers we seek are often right there, waiting for us to hear them.The Power of Listening: When we stop the rush and the noise, we create space to hear our inner truth. And in that truth, we find guidance and clarity.A little reminder to you, my dear friends: No matter what's happening around you, remember to trust and stay connected to yourself. Don't let fear take over. Your truth is always inside you—it's never out there. So, take a moment today, go inside, and listen.Sending you all my love and light, and reminding you that your inner treasure is waiting for you to rediscover it.............More LinksFor Crina´s website For Crina's Instagram click here!For Dream Again Podcast's Instagram click here!For Youtube Don't Forget is time to DREAM AGAIN

When you feel that urge to go to the bathroom – it just might be a good time to make an important decision. That probably sounds weird. What could the connection possibly be? Listen as I start the episode by explaining why and then it will make perfect sense. https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/releases/full-bladder-better-decisions-controlling-your-bladder-decreases-impulsive-choices.html We live in a noisy world which is only getting noisier. Not only is there noise coming at you from the outside but also from inside your own head. All that noise can't be good. What's the solution? Simple silence! That's according to Leigh Marz, a consultant and coach who is coauthor of a book called Golden: The Power of Silence in a World of Noise (https://amzn.to/3yKi203). Listen as Leigh reveals the negative effects of noise that are often hard to notice. She also has some great advice to help you turn down the volume on noise and enjoy the benefits that silence has to offer. Where do cravings come from? Why do we get them? Can you stop them?

And it does. However, you might be surprised to learn what else it also covers including things that are unrelated to your home.

In sales - especially in product knowledge training - we're taught from day one how to pitch, how to present, and how to overcome objections. We rehearse our spiels, memorize talking points, and perfect our scripts.  But too often we forget one of the most basic truths in sales: The more you listen, the more you learn. And the more you learn, the faster and easier it is to close a deal. Silence — shutting up and listening — is your secret weapon.  Yes, you need to speak confidently about the value you bring to the table, and you need to be clear when you're asking for the deal. But the words that actually sway a prospect don't come from you — they come from them.  Prospects convince themselves to buy. Your job is to guide the conversation in such a way that they articulate the problems they're trying to solve, the goals they want to achieve, and the obstacles blocking their path. When you can get them to articulate those issues in their own words, you close deals.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovBdhmangUU Embrace the Pause A common mistake reps make is rushing in to pitch a solution, answer a question, or tackle a perceived objection. They jump in prematurely, before letting the prospect fully voice what's on their mind.  But if you can stay silent, if you can resist the urge to speak immediately, your prospect will usually elaborate. They'll keep talking, often divulging the root cause of their hesitation.  That root cause might be very different from what you assumed at first glance. If you jump in too soon, you risk addressing a superficial objection and missing the real issue entirely. I've seen too many sales professionals sabotage deals because they were afraid of a little silence. They ramble on, trying to fill every pause, unnerved by any lull in the conversation.  But in the pause, in the silence, is where your prospect gathers their thoughts. If you just wait, if you'll just shut up, what comes next is where the real magic lies.  Your prospect will begin to share deeper insights. They might reveal the internal politics at play, the budget constraints, or the personal motivations driving their buying decision. They'll teach you exactly how to close the sale.  Build Trust Through Silence Learning to be comfortable with silence is also about showing genuine respect for the other person. When you give someone space to talk, you send an unspoken message: “I value your thoughts, your insights, and your experiences.”  That's a powerful psychological signal. It builds trust faster than any perfectly rehearsed line. People buy from those they trust, and trust often begins with the simple act of listening. Now, I'm not saying you should clam up entirely. Strategic silence is not about becoming a mute. It's about knowing when to speak, what to say, and when to remain quiet.  Ask a probing question, and then zip your lips. Sit there, look them in the eye, and nod empathetically while they talk. Let them finish. Then pause a moment.  Usually, that extra beat of silence after they finish speaking nudges them to continue, and they'll share even more valuable information.  If it's truly time for you to respond, do so thoughtfully, directly, and concisely. Then hand the baton of conversation back to your prospect with another question or an invitation to elaborate. Six Strategies For Leveraging Silence to Sell More Plan Your Questions: Before any meeting, plan the key questions you want to ask. Keep them open-ended and designed to encourage deep, detailed answers. Practice The 3-Count Rule: After the other person finishes answering the question, mentally count “one … two … three” before you talk again. Let those seconds of silence hang in the air. Leaving the gap of silence almost always compels the other person to fill it.  Embrace Discomfort: Silence can be awkward. Learn to live with that. Recognize that this discomfort is exactly what triggers prospects to open up further. Be in the Moment: After asking a question, resist the urge to start planning your response or thinking about your next question in your head. Listen Deeply: When they talk, focus on their words and the emotions behind them. Don't just listen; truly hear what they're saying and ask follow up questions around their emotional cues.  Ask Follow-Up Questions: Instead of immediately trying to solve their problem or deliver a solution, ask another question that goes deeper. “Can you tell me more about that?” or “How does that issue affect you personally?” can uncover hidden gold. Recap and Confirm: Once the prospect has shared, summarize what you heard. Confirm that you understand their concerns correctly. This step builds trust and ensures everyone's on the same page. When you unlock the power of silence in your sales conversations, you'll get below the surface to the real issues your prospect is facing and build stronger relationships. Never forget that sales isn't about talking more; it's about learning more. And you learn more by closing your mouth and opening your ears.

In the beginning, there was silence. Before the first word was spoken, before the first thought arose, silence existed as the primordial canvas upon which all of creation would be painted.
