Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos released two ransom notes from the person authorities believe kidnapped 83 year old Nancy Guthrie six months ago. The sheriff released them hoping to keep interest alive in the story and hoping that someone may recognize the distinctive patterns of word choice and phraseology. The two notes are chilling, the first one demanding millions of dollars “or she will be killed”, the second one acknowledging that she died shortly after being abducted.

Gene Marks compares public protests against data centers to the 19th-century opposition to railroads. While critics worry about land and water usage, Marks argues these facilities are imperative infrastructure for the information age and the AI revolution. Just as railroads enabled 20th-century American power, data centers are the means for moving information. Ceding this development would allow rivals like China or Russia to dominate the future economy. (12)1859 FIVR POINTS

Google-owned Debug has proposed releasing 32 million Wolbachia-infected male mosquitoes in California and Florida to suppress populations of Aedes aegypti, the invasive mosquito that spreads dengue fever, yellow fever, and Zika virus The released males don't bite humans and are designed to mate with wild females whose eggs then fail to hatch, preventing more than 100 offspring from being produced from a single mating Public concern centers on the possibility of unintended environmental consequences, the difficulty of reversing large-scale biological releases and questions about the role of private corporations in ecosystem management Researchers reviewing Wolbachia-based mosquito-control programs found that they can reduce disease transmission, but success depends heavily on local conditions and often requires ongoing releases, specialized infrastructure and long-term monitoring Regardless of whether the proposal moves forward, you can reduce your exposure to mosquito-borne diseases by eliminating standing water around your home, using physical barriers such as screens and reducing mosquito breeding sites in your community

Clare Gardaí are urging the public to refrain from violence at all costs this weekend. Large crowds are expected to descend on towns and villages across the county for Bank Holiday festivities. People are being advised to socialise responsibly, to have their way home planned in advance and to look out for friends. Clare Superintendent John Ryan says assaults can have life changing consequences for victims and perpetrators.

One of the main concerns Kiwis have when planning out their retirements is the cost of getting old – especially when it comes to healthcare. Ed McKnight runs through a couple of the key things you need to take into consideration when it comes to health after retiring. Public is free, but you pay the price of waiting Over 36% of patients have waited more than four months for surgery The Government's target is 5%, which is why two-thirds of elective surgery in NZ now happens in private facilities (some of that is publicly funded). People wildly underestimate what private costs Most Kiwis think a hip replacement is under $10,000. It's about $27,700–$33,100. Prostate cancer surgery runs around $26,700–$32,300 and breast cancer surgery is around $9,400–$31,100. Ultimately, it's about quality of life. One Auckland man was quoted $165,000 for back surgery, couldn't pay, and sat at home on nine pain prescriptions until the public system took him. Insurance fixes that, but the premium quadruples by 65 Health insurance for a non-smoking office worker is about $170 a month at 35, but it's about $676 at 65. By 75 you're nearing $1,000 a month — over $100,000 across that decade. Over-65s claim more than three times what 35–49-year-olds do.

n Jamaica, sound systems are more than just a stack of speakers blasting the latest tunes to an eager crowd. Over the last 70 years, they have come to represent the most common way that Jamaicans experience music. Sound systems have touched all levels of society in Jamaica, determining the island's popular taste and profoundly influencing the daily lives of its citizenry. This program explores the evolution of sound system culture, from the Jamaican genesis of the 1940s to its gradual impact on diaspora communities, and ultimately, its undeniable influence on the popular culture of nations overseas.

Join hosts Tom Simmons and Matthew Wallace as we talk the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's newly released Draft Guidance for Reducing Risk from PFOA and PFOS in Biosolids. We begin by explaining what biosolids are, why they can contain PFOA and PFOS—the two most historically used and commonly detected PFAS chemicals in the United States—and why these contaminants have become a growing concern. While the EPA's new guidance offers recommendations for testing, monitoring, and reducing risk, it's important to note that the guidance is entirely voluntary. We also explore how states are taking their own approaches to regulating PFAS in biosolids. Finally, we examine the practical challenges facing wastewater treatment plants if biosolids can no longer be land applied Join us as we unpack the latest EPA guidance, the growing patchwork of state regulations, and what comes next for biosolids management in the evolving world of PFAS.

This week on the Midwest Flyways Podcast we dive into one of the hottest waterfowl topics in Minnesota: the DNR's proposed optional three-duck bag limit aimed at making duck hunting more approachable for new hunters. While everyone agrees that recruiting the next generation of duck hunters is critical, the crew debates whether simplifying regulations is really the solution, or if the real problems lie elsewhere. The conversation explores the biggest barriers facing new waterfowl hunters, from learning duck identification and navigating regulations to finding quality places to hunt. The guys also discuss public land access, habitat management, declining duck production, and whether conservation dollars are being spent where they'll have the greatest impact. Before the debate heats up, the crew shares stories from the goose calling competition world, including judging contests, sticking notes on stage, and the pressure of competing against the best callers in the country. They also wrap things up with another round of Say What?! Topics Covered: •Minnesota's proposed optional three-duck bag limit •Will simpler regulations recruit new duck hunters? •Duck identification and hunter education •Public land access and waterfowl habitat •Goose calling contests and judging stories •Another round of Say What?!

As part of the Save America Movement's 'Fighting Democrat' series, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear joins Steve Schmidt for a conversation about leadership, accountability and the obligations that come with public office at a moment when the American people are demanding answers about Mitch McConnell’s prolonged absence from public life. Public office is a public trust, and there can be no ambiguity about whether those entrusted with power are capable of exercising it. They discuss what governing with integrity looks like, why elected leaders must serve every citizen rather than every faction, and how reckless foreign policy and self-inflicted economic damage are hurting working Americans. Governor Beshear makes the case that Democratic governors are showing the country what competent leadership looks like through results, not slogans, while arguing the party must once again compete everywhere in America — not just where it is comfortable. Above all, the conversation was a reminder that before we are Republicans or Democrats, we are Americans, and the country’s future depends on leaders who remember that simple truth.

 The Re-Conquest of IrelandWell done Mayo in the all-Ireland football final. Commiserations to Kerry. Both teams played their hearts out but in the end Mayo were worthy winners.Next month on August 30 I will be in Ballina, Mayo for the 45th anniversary of the 10 hunger strikers who died during the 1981 hunger strike. The event will also remember the three Mayo Hunger Strikers, Jack McNeela (1940), Michael Gaughan (1974) and Frank Stagg, (1976). 22 Republican prisoners died on hunger strike in the 20th century. Gerry KellyMy friend and comrade Gerry Kelly has announced his decision not to stand in the Assembly election next May. That does not mean that he will no longer be a republican activist. No chance of that. As I found out when I stepped back from electoral politics there is still a lot to do. And I am certain Gerry Kelly will also find that to be true.Gerry's commitment to ending the union with Britain and building a new Ireland, based on equality and respect is well known. As is his courage and determination in the face of enormous challenges. He spent 15 years in prisons in Ireland, Britain and Europe and was 205 days on hunger strike. For 167 of those days he was force fed by having a tube inserted into his nose – “like a red-hot needle being pushed into one's head”, he later wrote – and a wooden clamp jammed between his teeth to hold his jaws open while a feeding tube was fed down his throat.He was in solitary confinement in Mountjoy, Brixton, Wormwood Scrubs, Long Lartin, Maastricht, Amsterdam, the H-Blocks and Crumlin Road prisons. He attempted to escape several times and succeeded in the Great Escape from the H-Blocks of 1983 with 37 comrades.I have many fond memories of working with and socialising with Gerry, including on one occasion when he and I drove over to Lissadell House in County Sligo, childhood home of Countess Markievicz, to listen to Leonard Cohen sing. It was a beautiful summer evening in 2010. Leonard had an affection for Ireland and occasionally he sang “Kevin Barry”.Gerry is a wonderful dancer. In Lissadell Leonard started his set and after a time Gerry found a spot near the beer tent, where he was soon moved to go into the dancing repertoire he'd developed in solitary, listening to the music in his head. A crowd gathered around him. “Dance me to the end of love,” sang Leonard. “Dance me through the panic ‘til I'm gathered safely in.” Gerry moved more deeply into synchronicity with the song, fluid, absorbed, committed, his whole body in it in an expression of melodic wonderment. From the stage Leonard stopped mid-verse to salute him. I basked in the reflected glory of Gerry's rhythmic perambulations. ‘I'm your man,' I told him.As an elected official and negotiator Gerry has been a formidable representative for Sinn Fein and for the people of North Belfast. In the early 1990's he and Martin McGuinness engaged in secret talks with the British. He was one of our negotiating team for the Good Friday Agreement and in many subsequent negotiations, most frequently on policing.Gerry is a very fine writer. I have an Australian friend who frequently tells me that Gerry's book – The Escape: The Inside Story of the 1983 Escape from Long Kesh Prison – is the best book he's read on the struggle. Gerry has also written a memoir and two books of poems. So well done Gerry. You won't get away that easy – but you know that!!! Go luck to you and Margaret and all your clann. No Place for Armed GroupsLast week an explosive device was discovered in a car in County Monaghan, apparently on its way North. Whoever was responsible for this irresponsible action is actively working against the significant opportunity that now exists to end partition.Public and political support for Irish unity is stronger now than at any time since partition was imposed over a century ago. The conversation on unity crosses all political and community sectors. Apart from Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin there is a growing consensus among the broad nationalist/left parties across the island that Irish Unity is a winnable objective and offers the best prospect for a better future for all of the people of our island. 

What did Jefferson mean by “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”? Adam Potkay explains the moral and philosophical world behind the phrase and the important passages that were edited out of the Declaration of Independence. Plus: On the evening of July 4, 1776, the Founding Fathers raced to print 200 copies of the Declaration of Independence for rapid dispersal throughout the colonies. Holly Robertson and George Riser dive into the frantic, midnight race to spread the news of independence. Later in the show: Martha Jefferson is usually portrayed as Thomas Jefferson's beloved wife who died young in childbirth. But Patti Miller and Nicole Brown say that a new biography shows she was actually a highly educated, politically astute woman and a wartime political confidante of Jefferson.

Virginia's environmental regulator challenged a report on pollution from a self-powered Loudoun County data center. A Politico investigation found the agency's pushback echoed talking points from the data center company itself.

Who should control Britain's biggest water company? Chris Weston, the chief executive of Thames Water, says he "completely agrees" with the Prime Minister that the industry, and Thames Water, needs greater public control. But he draws a clear distinction between stronger public accountability and public ownership, arguing that nationalisation or special administration could delay investment, increase uncertainty and ultimately leave taxpayers carrying the financial risk.Thames spent more than £1bn more than it received last year, with the shortfall currently funded by creditors. Under special administration, Weston says that funding would instead have to come from government while a new owner was sought. Full nationalisation, he argues, would place Thames Water's decade-long infrastructure programme on the public balance sheet alongside defence, health and education. His preferred solution is the proposal from more than 100 creditors to write off around £9bn of debt, inject fresh equity and rebuild the company under a model that promises no dividends for at least ten years. He argues this private-sector restructuring can sit alongside stronger public oversight, clearer government direction, greater regional representation and a more company-specific regulatory regime.The debate over ownership comes as Weston warns Britain faces a much bigger challenge. Drought, he says, is no longer an exceptional event but "the new normal". Despite an unusually wet January and February, no rain fell across the Thames Valley in July, exposing a shortage of water storage across the South East.Thames has not built a reservoir since Farmoor B in 1977. A replacement scheme proposed around 2010 was rejected after the company failed to make its case successfully, and Weston believes the region would not be facing a hosepipe ban today had it been approved. The proposed Whitehorse reservoir near Abingdon remains in the planning process and is not expected to begin filling until 2038, with another three years needed before it reaches capacity.Population growth, government housebuilding targets and the rapid expansion of data centres will place even greater pressure on supplies. Weston questions whether data centres should rely on drinking water for cooling, suggesting treated effluent from sewage works could provide an alternative. He also says households will need to become more mindful of how they use water, with government playing a greater role in encouraging behavioural change.Weston also makes a notable concession about how the industry reached this point. Customers, he says, have "paid too little for water for too long". Thames operates 440 treatment works and a network stretching four times around the circumference of the Earth. Keeping bills low, he argues, meant insufficient investment in maintaining and modernising ageing infrastructure, although he accepts the company's current debt levels are unsustainable.On pollution, Weston accepts Thames must improve but refuses to promise sewage incidents can ever be eliminated entirely. The company treats around 4.3 billion litres of wastewater every day and, he says, succeeds 99.5% of the time on average. Extreme weather, ageing infrastructure and illegal connections mean completely eliminating pollution incidents remains "very, very slim".Presenter: Simon Jack Producer: Olie D'Albertanson/Ollie Smith00:00 BBC Editor, Simon Jack introduces podcast 03:09 Chris Weston joins pod, explains Thames Water's situation 06:18 Bills were too low for too long. 09:32 Unrealistic targets, swage and pollution 12:31 Privatisation of Thames Water 14:50 What's on the table now? 17:28 Greater public control, special administration and nationalisation 28:41 Drought, reservoirs and the new normal 34:29 Staff abuse and his own pay

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Warehouse and Operations as a Career. I’m Marty, and as always, I appreciate you spending a little of your day with me.  Today I want to talk about something that’s been on my mind for quite a while. Over the past several months, I’ve spoken with warehouse associates, forklift operators, order selectors, recruiters, supervisors, and hiring managers from all over the country. I’ve listened to the concerns of people just entering our industry, and I’ve listened to leaders trying to build strong teams. You know what’s interesting? Both groups are asking almost the same question. The associate is asking, “How do I get ahead?” The employer is asking, “How do I keep good people?” I think those questions are really two sides of the same conversation.   Let’s start with a simple question. What do you think is the biggest concern for today’s warehouse associate? Most people immediately answer, “Money.” Yes, pay is important. We all work to provide for ourselves and our families. Inflation, groceries, rent, and fuel aren’t getting any cheaper. But after forty years in this industry, I’ve learned that money is rarely the real problem. I feel that people want to know if they’re building a future, or just collecting another paycheck. That’s an entirely different question.  When someone walks into a warehouse for the very first time, they’re usually thinking about today’s shift. Can I do the work? Will I like the people? Can I make it through orientation? Will I get enough hours? Those are all fair questions. But somewhere along the way, another question should replace those. In my humble opinion, we should be asking ourselves, “What does my career look like three years from now?” And unfortunately, many people never ask it. Instead, they work, they clock in, they clock out, and before they know it, three years have become ten. Nothing changed except the date on the calendar.  Here’s something I tell every young associate I meet. Your employer hired you to fill a position. Only you can build the career. The company can provide the opportunity. It can’t provide ambition. It can offer training but it can’t force someone to learn. It can post an opening for a Lead, Trainer, Dispatcher, Inventory Control, Safety Coordinator, Supervisor, or Manager but someone has to decide they’re ready to take those steps.  I hear people say all the time “They never give me a chance.” Of course sometimes that’s true. But sometimes we haven’t given ourselves one either. Have we volunteered to learn another department duties? Have we asked to operate another piece of equipment or a different production machine? Have we asked to learned what those inventory people actually do? Do we understand receiving, Shipping, Quality Control, Cycle counts, Warehouse Management Systems, Transportation, Planning, Customer Service? Every one of those skills makes you more valuable. And as we've learned, valuable employees don’t stay in the same position forever.  One of the biggest mistakes I see is confusing experience with growth. Someone says “I’ve been here five years.” Well that’s wonderful. But have you had five years of experience, or one year of experience repeated five times? Those aren’t the same thing. Growth happens when we’re learning something new. When we’re uncomfortable and challenged. When we’re solving problems instead of waiting for someone else to solve them.  Here's a big one, let’s talk about automation for just a minute. I hear it all the time. “Robots are taking our jobs.” Here’s my perspective. Automation doesn’t replace great employees. It can replace repetitive tasks. Someone still has to maintain the equipment. Program the systems. Analyze the inventory. Manage the workflow. Lead the team and interpret the data. Solve the problems technology can’t solve. The more skilled you become, the more valuable you become in an automated world. Technology should motivate us to learn more. Not scare us into standing still. Another thing I hear all the time is, I don't have time to learn things and online classes take so many hours, or my company wants us to stay over to learn something new. I always ask what are you doing that keeps you from having that time to invest in yourself? What did you watch on tv last Tuesday night and what was the plot of the program? lol. Just a thought. Now where was I. Ok, now let’s talk about something every supervisor notices. Dependability. If I asked ten warehouse managers who their most valuable employee is, almost every one of them would describe someone who shows up every day, on time, and ready to work. Not necessarily the fastest or the strongest. But dependable. And what have we said before? Dependability creates opportunity. Opportunity creates trust. And trust creates promotions. It really is that simple.  Here’s another lesson I learned years ago. Don’t wait for the title before acting like the leader. Lead from wherever you’re standing. Help the new employee. Pick up the trash nobody else noticed. Volunteer for the difficult assignment. Stay positive when everyone else is complaining. Ask questions. Share ideas respectfully. Those things, ladies and gentlemen, are leadership behaviors. And people notice them.  One thing I absolutely love about our industry is that careers are still earned. Think about that. There are very few industries where someone can begin unloading trucks, become a forklift operator, learn inventory, move into training, become a lead, a supervisor, a manager, a director, or a Vice President. I know that’s possible. Because I lived it. Nobody handed me those opportunities. Each one required another step up the ladder. And yes, sometimes those steps were uncomfortable. Sometimes they were exhausting. And many times I wondered if I was ready. But I climbed anyway.  Here’s something else to think about. Every certification you earn is another rung on that ladder. Your Powered Industrial Truck certification. First Aid, CPR, and AED. CRASE. STOP THE BLEED. OSHA training. Leadership classes. The Microsoft Excel and Word programs. Warehouse Management Systems. Inventory Control. Public speaking. Communication. Every one of those skills separates you from the crowd. Because when opportunity comes, preparation wins.  You know what rarely earns promotions? Complaining. Excuses. Drama. Blaming everyone else. Those things might get attention. But they don’t build careers. Solutions build careers. And Managers remember people who solve problems. They remember people who volunteer and there going to remember people who make everyone’s job easier.  Ok, we've been closing with a challenge for the week so here's this weeks. When you walk into work tomorrow don’t ask yourself “What do I have to do today?” Ask yourself “What can I learn today?” One question changes your schedule. The other changes your future. Anything counts. Maybe you ask to learn shipping paperwork, or you spend fifteen minutes talking with inventory control, or maybe you ask your supervisor why something is done a certain way. I think curiosity builds careers.  And here’s another challenge for us. Write down the job you want three years from now. Not tomorrow, but three years from now. Then ask yourself “What skills does that person have that I don’t have yet?” Now you have a roadmap. Our careers aren’t built by accident. They’re built intentionally. By us.  One skill. One lesson. One opportunity. One day at a time.  I’ll leave you with this. The career ladder in warehousing, Production, Transportation, Manufacturing and Distribution. It hasn’t disappeared. In fact, I’d argue it’s stronger than it’s ever been. Companies need leaders and trainers. They need technicians, safety professionals, dispatchers, machine operators, inventory specialists, and operations managers.  The opportunities are there. The ladder is standing exactly where it’s always been. The question is, are you still climbing, or did you stop on the first rung?  If today’s episode encouraged you, challenged you, or reminded you that your future is still being written, I’d appreciate it if you’d share it with a coworker, a friend, or someone who’s just getting started in our industry. Until next time, keep learning and improving, keep showing up every day. And remember. Your job may get you through today, but your commitment to learning is what builds tomorrow.  Everyone have a safe shift and I hope to see you back here in two weeks!

Forskare tror att de blodtörstiga vägglössen fanns redan i stenålderns grottboningar. Genom historien har olika typer av ohyra inte bara gett oss kliande bett och förstört våra matförråd, utan också orsakat några av mänsklighetens mest förödande sjukdomsepidemier.Under några decennier på 1900-talet, när en rad nya och kraftfulla bekämpningsmedel gjorde entré, såg det ut som att människan äntligen höll på att vinna den tusenåriga kampen mot krypen.Men segervittringen blev kortvarig. Skadedjuren är tillbaka. De blir fler, de sprider sig till nya platser – och de har blivit allt svårare att bekämpa.Programledare och producent: Anna Lillkung och Wendela AntepohlOrdlistaVektor – en organism, till exempel en råtta eller en kackerlacka, som för över smittämnen mellan varelser.Patogen – ett sjukdomsframkallande smittämne, till exempel ett virus eller en bakterie.Mikrob – en organism som är så liten att den inte syns med blotta ögat, till exempel ett virus eller en bakterie.Resistens – en organisms förmåga att stå emot yttre påfrestningar, till exempel en bakterie som utvecklat motståndskraft mot en eller flera typer av antibiotika.KällförteckningMedverkandeThomas Persson Vinnersten – Biolog och entomolog på AnticimexLisa Sarasohn – Historiker och författare till Getting Under Our Skin: The Cultural and Social History of VerminBobby Corrigan – Skadedjursbiolog med fokus på gnagareÅke Lundkvist – Professor i virologi vid Uppsala universitetTuomas Aivelo – Assisterande professor i biodiversitet och samhälle vid Leiden University i Nederländerna och grundare till Helsinki Urban Rat ProjectJose Pietri – Docent i mikrobiologi och entomologi vid Purdue UniversityBöckerGetting Under Our Skin: The Cultural and Social History of Vermin (Lisa T.

What can economic developers learn from a career that spans the public sector, entrepreneurship, and consulting? In this episode of Develop This!, Dennis Fraise speaks with Ruth Buchanan, founder of Buchanan Advisors, about her journey through economic development and the lessons that led her to launch her own consulting firm. Drawing on experience across multiple sectors, Ruth shares insights on navigating complex development projects, building trust among stakeholders, and helping communities move ambitious initiatives from concept to reality. A major theme throughout the conversation is continuous learning. Ruth discusses the importance of staying informed, understanding market trends, and adapting to changing economic conditions in order to remain effective in a rapidly evolving profession. The discussion also explores public-private partnerships, highlighting the collaboration, communication, and project management skills required to bring diverse groups together around shared goals. Another key focus is supporting second-stage companies—businesses that have moved beyond startup status and are poised for growth. Ruth explains why helping these firms scale can have a significant impact on local economies and long-term community prosperity. A key takeaway? Successful economic development is built on trust, lifelong learning, and the ability to bring people together around a common vision. Key Takeaways Continuous learning is essential for long-term success in economic development Public-private partnerships require trust, communication, and collaboration Supporting second-stage companies can drive significant economic growth Data and market analysis improve decision-making and project outcomes Strong stakeholder relationships help navigate complex projects Adaptability is critical as technology and business environments evolve Key Topics Covered Career transition from economic development to consulting Lessons learned from diverse leadership roles Public-private partnership project management Supporting second-stage business growth Trust-building and stakeholder engagement Data, market analysis, and emerging technologies Community redevelopment and strategic planning Sound Bites "Continuous learning is essential for growth." "Trust is the foundation of successful projects." "The best solutions come from understanding both people and markets."

A few weeks ago, my husband told me something I wasn't exactly thrilled to hear: after more than 15 years of building businesses, I've become pretty good at spotting patterns.And as much as I wanted to argue with him... he wasn't wrong.In this episode, I'm sharing a conversation from Courtney Johnson's podcast, Built in Public, where we unpack what it really takes to build a personal brand that stands the test of time.Spoiler alert: it's not about becoming someone else. It's about becoming more of who you already are.We talk about how I went from a law school dropout with a free blog and a brand-new camera to building an internationally recognized brand, why storytelling is your greatest business asset, and how trust—not perfection—is what truly grows a business.We also dive into the biggest mistake entrepreneurs make with content, why consistency matters more than ever, and the focus advice I wish I had listened to years ago: less noise, less consumption, and more implementation.If you're building a business, growing an audience, or wondering if your story is worth sharing, this conversation is for you.Click play to hear all of this and:[00:00] Why building businesses for decades creates a unique advantage[01:44] The easiest time in history to build a personal brand[02:59] The childhood storytelling lesson that shaped an entire career[03:44] Leaving law school behind to pursue an unlikely dream[04:30] Building a business with no website, portfolio, or business cards[12:00] Why storytelling remains the foundation of memorable brands[25:00] The difference between being impressive and being relatable[40:00] How entrepreneurs can stand out in an increasingly crowded market[54:18] The focus strategy that changes everything: choose less to achieve more[55:06] Why trust is built through conversations, not sales tacticsListen to Related Episodes:How to Discover Your Uniqueness and Gain the Recognition You Deserve with Rory VadenHow I Scaled My Personal Brand to 7 FiguresThe Focus Framework Every 7-Figure CEO Needs

This week's episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast    I once paid for months of coaching on software I never learned. This was back in what I call the dark years of my business. Some project management platform was going to change everything. Once I finally mastered it, the work would take care of itself. I gave it three months and a pile of money. I never even learned the thing. What I remember is how beat up I felt at the end. All that time, all that money, and I was further behind than the day I started. I thought about that this week because a client told me he'd just lost a whole day building AI prompts. Smart guy. Public speaker. Gets things done. He looked up and went, "What happened? I was supposed to do all this other stuff today." Here's the part nobody says out loud. AI was supposed to buy you time. Almost everyone I talk to is busier than they have ever been. Email was going to save us too, remember? You send one out and three come back. The tool was never the problem. It was never the whole answer either. AI just speeds up whatever you already have. And if what you already have is chaos, now you've got fast chaos. So the real question isn't "what can this new tool do." It's "what never lands back on my desk again." That takes a person who owns the work, using the tool to move quicker. Not you, at 10:30 at night, quietly turning into the one who babysits every shiny new thing. Your business is here to support your life. You didn't sign up to run a help desk for the robots. Are you running the tools? Or have you quietly become the person who manages all of them?
