Podcasts about Rainier

Earlier this month, Mount Rainier experienced its most powerful seismic swarm ever recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey. More than 1,000 earthquakes have been detected at the mountain since July 8 — far above the volcano’s usual activity level — and the swarm is still continuing.    However, despite the levels of seismic activity, the USGS’s Cascades Volcano Observatory say there’s no sign of magma movement or volcanic unrest. Instead, they believe the swarm was triggered by underground fluids shifting through cracks deep below the mountain.  Research geophysicist Alexandra Iezzi joins us to explain what makes Rainier a unique geological phenomenon and what scientists are watching for.

In this thought-provoking and often hilarious Friday night episode of Spellbreakers, host Matt Trump unpacks the cultural fallout of modern dating, centering the conversation on the explosive rise, and instant collapse, of a controversial new app called "Tea." Designed exclusively for women to rate and review men, the app went viral before being swiftly hacked, exposing users' data and igniting digital chaos. Matt dives into what the app's existence, and failure, says about society, gender dynamics, the incel epidemic, and the digital destruction of courtship norms. Along the way, he reflects on the lost art of asking someone out in person, the subtle brutality of female gossip culture, and how modern tech rewards a tiny group of “apex” men while leaving most others, and many women, frustrated and disillusioned. With nostalgic references, honest observations, and Rainier cherries in hand, Matt turns cultural decay into compelling radio.

You might have noticed that Mount Rainier’s been looking a little…. Bald lately. People on social media have been posting about how Washington’s favorite sight looks less snowy than usual. Some of them are saying they’ve never seen the mountain look this bare in their lives. Rainier definitely sheds some snow in the warmer months. And Washington has been getting hit with some pretty serious heat lately. Many of us know that climate change is a thing, so how much of that is playing into the mountain’s sleek peak? (Basically, how much dread should we be feeling about this?) Soundside asked a glaciologist to explain what's happening up there. Guest: Dr. Mauri Pelto, director of the North Cascade Glacier Climate Project.

For nearly a century, Washington’s timber industry produced everything from paper to 2x4s to the massive wood beams that hold up the Tacoma dome. But the industry’s been on a long decline since the 1990s. Now, President Trump wants to reduce foreign competition and increase U.S. logging to bring back those jobs. Could Trump’s strategy revive the timber industry in the Northwest? We went to a sawmill in the foothills of Mt. Rainier to find out.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explore Amazon's massive new AI infrastructure project, Project Rainier, built for Anthropic and the largest-ever deployment of Trainium2 chips by Annapurna Labs.Highlights00:03 — AWS is building a colossal supercomputing cluster for Anthropic, a company that has received a total of $8 billion in backing from Amazon. Project Rainier is spread across multiple U.S. sites and uses hundreds of thousands of Annapurna Labs Trainium2 accelerators, and is set to launch later this year. One site alone, in Indiana, will feature 30 200,000-square-foot data centers.00:36 — Gadi Hutt, Director of Product and Customer Engineering at Annapurna Labs, said the following: "This is the first time we're building such a large-scale training cluster that will allow a customer — in this case, Anthropic — to train a single model across all of that infrastructure."01:26 — Now it's in direct competition with OpenAI, the only other company with comparable compute and training capabilities. This marks a major milestone in the escalating AI arms race, and by proxy, could be a big win for Amazon. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

The Rainier cherries are golden yellow cherries with tender, creamy-yellow flesh and a red blush. In 1952, Harry Fogle of Washington State University developed the Rainier cherry by cross-breeding the Bing and Van cherry varieties. While cherries in general present growing challenges, Rainier cherries are unique. Their delicate skins require the cherries to be hand-picked because they bruise so easilty...hence the cost difference from bing cherries...but cherry lovers agree...they are worth the price!

In this podcast, we discuss how we are witnessing unprecedented once-in-500-year and once-in-one-thousand-year floods striking multiple states across the United States, while earthquake swarms are intensifying under Mt. Rainier and in Japan. 


Here are 3 big things you need to know—    One — The State Department says someone used an AI-generated voice of Secretary of State Marco Rubio to contact U.S. and foreign officials.  The person contacted three foreign ministers and two U.S. officials in mid-June via the Signal messaging app and left voicemails for at least two of them.    Two ---  Michigan Senate Minority Leader Aric Nesbitt is calling for the federal government to investigate a growing scandal involving the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.  The MEDC gave a 20-million-dollar grant to Fay Beydoun, an associate of Governor Whitmer, and she is accused of misusing the money.  Nesbitt says official email records show she communicated directly with Whitmer's office to obtain the grant, and top MEDC officials not only knew about the arrangement, but also attempted to hide and withhold evidence from investigators.    And number three ---   The largest earthquake swarm in 16 years has rumbled under Mt. Rainier in Washington State.  Hundreds of small earthquakes were felt across a wide area of the mountain.  The U.S. Geological Survey says the earthquakes alone aren't cause for concern.  There's no other unusual activity on the mountain. 

Apple's AI Struggles, AWS's Project Rainier, and Musk's Grok Controversy In this episode of Hashtag Trending, host Jim Love covers several tech developments. Apple is reportedly considering replacing Siri's AI with technology from Anthropic or OpenAI, revealing their admission of Siri's limitations. AWS continues its aggressive strategy with Project Rainier, a massive distributed AI supercomputer powered by custom Trainium 2 chips, aiming to maintain supremacy in AI infrastructure. Meanwhile, Elon Musk has controversially 'fixed' his AI model Grok, imbuing it with a noticeable right-wing bias, raising concerns about the manipulation of AI for ideological influence. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:19 Apple's AI Dilemma: Siri vs. ChatGPT and Claude 03:18 AWS's Project Rainier: A New AI Supercomputer 10:31 Elon Musk's Grok: From Fixes to Controversies 14:47 Conclusion and Contact Information

Introduction to Mental Alchemy Ever felt like life melted you down just to see what you're made of? I've been there... lying flat on my back after yet another surgery, stripped of my strength, dignity, and purpose. But that moment became my forge. That's when I discovered the real power of mental alchemy. This article dives into a transformational process that most high performers overlook. Mental alchemy isn't about ignoring pain or pushing through it. It's about transmuting it. We'll explore how ancient Hermetic wisdom, blended with modern performance psychology, can help you convert breakdowns into breakthroughs. You'll learn: What mental alchemy really is Why it matters more than ever How to implement it step-by-step Common mistakes to avoid Advanced strategies for those already on the path If you're ready to stop letting pain control you and start using it as fuel for your transformation, read on. What Is Mental Alchemy? Mental alchemy is the process of transforming emotional pain, limiting beliefs, and internal chaos into clarity, strength, and purpose. Rooted in Hermetic philosophy..."As within, so without"...mental alchemy teaches that true change happens from the inside out. Hermetic alchemists believed in transmuting base metals into gold. But modern mental warriors? We transmute shame into self-respect... trauma into triumph. Psychologically, this parallels the process of emotional integration, shadow work, and cognitive reframing. Neuroscience supports it too: by changing our interpretations and responses, we literally rewire our brains. That's mental alchemy in action. Many confuse it with "positive thinking." But this isn't about bypassing or sugarcoating reality. It's about facing darkness with courage, extracting its wisdom, and choosing who you want to become because of it. Why Mental Alchemy Matters More Than Ever In a world obsessed with hustle and optimization, few talk about what happens when your inner world crashes. Mental alchemy matters because breakdowns are inevitable. Burnout. Divorce. Betrayal. Injury. Business failure. I've been through them all. The question isn't if you'll face pain... it's what you'll do with it. Here's why mental alchemy is a non-negotiable skill: -> Clarity through chaos: When emotions cloud judgment, mental alchemy helps distill truth from the noise. -> Self-leadership: It returns sovereignty. No longer are you at the mercy of triggers or circumstances. -> Performance resilience: Alchemists don't crumble under pressure. They evolve through it. In my own life, surviving a deadly avalanche on Mt. Rainier forced me into alchemy. I came out more centered, focused, and connected to purpose than ever before. Pain became my portal. Common Challenges and Limiting Beliefs Mental alchemy sounds powerful...and it is...but many struggle with common mindset traps: "Pain means I'm weak": Truth? Avoiding pain is weakness. Facing it is strength. "I should be over this by now": Healing isn't linear. Alchemy is cyclical. "I can't change my wiring": Neuroplasticity proves otherwise. I used to believe I had to "man up" and push through everything. It wasn't until I confronted my stuttering, shame, and PTSD that true transformation began. The lie that strength means suppression nearly killed me. Mental alchemy means challenging these beliefs and rewriting your internal code. The Mental Alchemy Method: A Step-by-Step Guide Step 1: Calcination – Break the Illusion This is the ego burn. Identify the limiting identities that no longer serve you: perfectionist, victim, people-pleaser. Write them down. Burn them. Feel the loss. Let go. Step 2: Dissolution – Feel It to Free It Stop numbing. Feel the grief, anger, shame. Use breathwork, journaling, or guided somatic release. Emotions are energy. Let them move. Step 3: Separation – Extract the Lesson Look into the pain.

When you buy things through this site, we may earn an affiliate commission.Become a patron and enjoy special perks and bonus content.Barbara Tifft Blakey, a first-timer on the show, joins us this week to chat about her new release, The Angel of Second Street. We discuss the interesting story behind how this book came to be published, what Eureka, California, was like in the 1850s and now, and the difference seeing a place makes when writing about it. With the patrons, she shares the fascinating story of how she got into writing. The Angel of Second Street by Barbara Tifft BlakeyHow Can Compassion be Considered Wrong? When life is weighed down by challenges, pillars of enduring hope and love are always waiting to be discovered. Ida Dempsey has grown up in a privileged life of luxury thanks to her aunt and uncle. Although Second Street—where women of ill repute ply their wares—is off limits to respectable citizens, her heart of compassion compels her to frequent the area, hoping to make a difference in their lives. Ida has also befriended Qui Shau, a Chinese woman who keeps house for her family, but friendships between the whites and Chinese are taboo in Eureka. Ida tries to keep secret her forbidden compassion, but someone is watching and will use it against her. When Blaine Prescott meets Ida at a church picnic, his parents warn him away from any relationship with the young lady who has been seen on Second Street in the company of a Chinese woman. But how could such a kindhearted, lovely young woman be anything but good? But when riots break out in Chinatown and Ida disappears, Blaine will do anything to find out where and why she has gone.Get your copy of The Angel of Second Street.I live on five wooded acres outside of Olympia, Washington with my husband, Terry. I have four grown children and eight grandchildren, seven of whom live within sixty miles, giving great joy to my grandma heart.Like many authors, I dreamed of writing stories very young. At eight-years-old, I rewrote Cinderella. In my version, the prince comes down with measles and the ball is postponed. I didn't begin seriously writing historical fiction until after the advent of grandchildren as the Lord had other plans for me. During our homeschooling years, I developed Total Language Plus (TLP), an award-winning,  literature-inspired language arts program written for homeschoolers and private Christian schools. I am beyond blessed to have thirty years of producing study guides that make a difference in children's lives. Nothing is more meaningful to me than influencing children with Kingdom principles!But as we know, God's timing is always best. I delight in doing the research historical fiction requires and bringing stories of hope and love to my readers. Time ceases to exist as the Creator of the universe and Lover of my soul draws near to me as my fingers fly over the keyboard. When I write I feel His presence in extraordinary, precious ways.When I'm not writing, reading, or playing with my grandchildren, you can find me volunteering in the kitchen of Pleasant Valley Christian Camp near Mt. Rainier. I'm also an avid soccer fan, especially for the Seattle Sounders. During stormy weather, my husband and I head for the ocean in our RV to take in the power of crashing waves against rocks. Calm weather also beckons us to the beach to dig razor clams and fish for Dungeness crabs.Visit Barbara Tifft Blakey's website.

What happens when you try to dismantle one of the most common and damaging forces in diabetes care with comedy? Diabetes stigma affects nearly 4 in 5 adults with diabetes. It impacts their mental, physical, and social well-being. Spoonful of Laughter is a national campaign that tackles this stigma head-on—not with lectures, but with laughter. In this episode, guests Brian Fitzgerald of Dancing Fox and Beth Strachan, who collaborated with The diaTribe Foundation to create the campaign, take us behind the scenes of how this unexpected creative approach came to life. We explore why comedy is such a powerful "Trojan horse" for social change, how the campaign broke through entrenched stereotypes, and what nonprofit communicators can learn about designing bold, emotionally resonant campaigns. About the guests Beth: For over three decades, Beth Strachan has been a professional do-gooder working at the crossroads of social justice, environmental protection, and health. Her narrative change work has helped catalyze the nationwide move toward clean energy; integrate arts, culture, and creative expression into our daily lives; and illuminate structural racism as a root cause of inequity. She has helped lead courageous breast cancer survivors on awe-inspiring ascents of Mount Shasta and Mt. Rainier, uniting communities in a powerful movement to prevent the disease. She helped launch the premier traveling film festival spotlighting women's voices in cinema, raising $8 million for nonprofits across North America. With a family motto of "Non Timeo Sed Caveo" (I fear not, but am cautious), she approaches every endeavor with boldness tempered by wisdom, ensuring that progress is both impactful and sustainable. Brian:  Brian Fitzgerald has been a mischief-maker for social change for most of his life. He spent 35 years with Greenpeace doing everything from door-to-door canvassing to going to sea to save whales, stopping a nuclear weapons test in Nevada for four days, and pioneering the organization's adoption of digital activism back when the web was young. Together with Tommy Crawford, he's the founder of Dancing Fox, a creative agency based in Amsterdam and dedicated to beautiful disruption, where he advocates for a more invitational, hope-based form of activism.  Resources: Demystifying Nonprofit Budgets: What Every Leader, Fundraiser, and Marketer Needs to Know: https://brooks.digital/health-nonprofit-digital-marketing/demystifying-nonprofit-budgets/ Contact Brian and Beth Brian: https://www.dancing-fox.comBeth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bethstrachan/Brian: @brianfit.bsky.socialLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianfit/Insta: @brianfithttps://substack.com/@brianfitBeth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bethstrachan/https://www.dstigmatize.org/spoonful-of-laughter/The Center for Media & Social Impact's report, How Comedy Works [to Change the World]

(The Center Square) – Outside of budget negotiations, one of the bills that dominated Washington state lawmakers' attention during the 2025 legislative session was a proposal to close a state-operated school for people with severe intellectual and developmental disabilities. With just hours to spare on Sunday – the last day of the 105-day legislative session – lawmakers passed a version of Senate Bill 5393 that will prohibit new long-term admissions to Rainier School in Pierce County starting July 27 and stop short-term admissions starting June 30, 2027. The changes were the result of a Republican amendment accepted by both chambers. Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxx Read more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/washington/article_963049b7-b44c-47f4-8c5b-f5761f0da729.html

Life Will Break You—Unless You Learn to Break Through Let's get one thing straight: adversity isn't optional. If you're a high-achieving man between 35 and 55—burned out, stuck in a performance rut, or just plain tired of chasing success while feeling empty inside—then you already know life can feel like a constant battle. But here's what separates the Warrior from the Worrier: the ability to turn Adversity into Strength. This article isn't just about overcoming hard times. It's about mastering your mind, forging a stronger identity, and turning breakdowns into breakthroughs. If you're ready to rise, let's begin. Adversity Into Strength - The Gateway to Growth You've probably heard some version of the quote, “Smooth seas never made a skilled sailor.” But let's be real—when the storm hits, most people look for a way out. They retreat, numb out, or crumble. But Warriors? They do something radically different. They stand firm, face the wind, and use the pressure to sharpen their edge. The concept of Adversity into Strength isn't just an inspirational soundbite. It's a conscious decision to view hardship as a gateway to self-mastery. Adversity is powerful because it strips away illusions. When things fall apart, you're forced to confront what's real—your beliefs, your habits, your fears, and your limits. It doesn't coddle your ego; it demands your truth. In the face of challenge, you also build emotional and psychological armor. You learn how to regulate your state, calm your mind under stress, and rise from chaos with clarity. Those are warrior traits—not corporate buzzwords. You also start to master the art of response. While most people react emotionally or impulsively, Warriors develop the ability to pause, breathe, assess, and choose their next move with precision. That's a skill forged only through friction. And perhaps most importantly, adversity reveals your character. When everything is easy, anyone can look strong. But when the heat's on and your back is against the wall—that's when your true nature shows up. I'll never forget standing on the icy slopes of Mt. Rainier, caught in an avalanche. It was a moment that could have ended me. But it became one of the most transformative moments of my life. Not because I survived—but because it forced me to decide who I would become if I made it through. That's the power of Adversity into Strength. Building the Warrior's Mindset Here's a truth most men don't want to admit: we spend more time avoiding discomfort than developing discipline. But the Warrior knows this—your mindset is either your most powerful asset or your most dangerous liability. If you want to turn adversity into strength, you have to shift how you relate to struggle. You can't see it as a curse. You have to see it as curriculum. This starts with your identity. When I was a kid, I stuttered so badly I could barely say my own name. Add in asthma, and I felt like my body and voice were conspiring against me. I was teased, rejected, and constantly overlooked. But one day, I made a decision: I would not let my weakness define me. I would train my mind like I trained my body—in reps. Every time I spoke, even if I stumbled, I gained strength. Every time I entered the gym, even if I failed the lift, I gained power. And every time I stood up again, I rewrote the script of my identity. That's how my Warrior Mindset was born. And that's how Adversity into Strength took root in my bones. So if you're waiting for motivation—stop. Motivation fades. Mindset lasts. Reflection Prompt: Are you reacting to adversity like a victim… or responding like a Warrior? The 4C Mental Toughness Framework As a coach, I guide men through what I call the 4C Warrior Framework. These four pillars are simple—but don't confuse simple with easy. They demand consistency, courage, and absolute ownership. Control You must train your mind to focus only on what you can shape an...

Self loading ships, a special breedToday we have an unusual cargo ship on the river: a self loader called the CSL Tecumseh. She's bringing gypsum to Rainier. What makes her unusual is she has all the gear she needs to load and unload her own cargo at the dock. We'll talk about why that's important.

Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. The murder of Rainier Police Chief Ralph Painter in 2011 shook the quiet Oregon town of Rainier to its core and for nearly eight years, the pursuit of justice added insult to tragedy for his grieving family. Alan Painter, Ralph's brother, speaks out, expressing deep frustration of the court system and sharing his experience through various platforms, including a powerful free podcast episode, news interviews, and the pages of a new book that dives deep into a justice process he believes failed his family. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms “The justice system didn't just let us down, it dragged us through hell,” Alan said during an interview. What should have been a straightforward case turned into nearly a decade of pain.” Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms Chief Ralph Painter was fatally shot on January 5, 2011, while responding to a call about an attempted car theft. The suspect, a 21-year-old killer, managed to disarm and kill the Chief with his own weapon during a confrontation outside a local stereo shop. The senseless murder not only devastated a town but exposed glaring flaws in the mental health and criminal justice systems. For years, the case was stalled by questions surrounding the killer's mental fitness. Despite initially facing aggravated murder charges, his erratic behavior, including refusing to cooperate with his lawyers and stabbing himself in the head, led to a back-and-forth between jail and a state mental hospital. The court eventually ruled him competent to stand trial in 2018, after years of forced medication and evaluation. Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. In 2019, the killer finally pleaded guilty to the murder and received a life sentence with the possibility of parole after 30 years. For the Painter family, it was a bittersweet conclusion. “Our family was held hostage by this broken system,” Alan said. “We waited eight years for justice. That's not justice, it's torture.” To share the full story and spotlight the failures they endured, Alan Painter teamed up with journalist and author Rosemary Reynolds to publish the book, Trapped In The System: Bringing The Killer of Rainier Police Chief Ralph Painter To Justice. The book, available on Amazon, is a gripping true crime account that pulls no punches. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms According to Reynolds, “This story is more than just a tragedy, it's a case study in how bureaucracy and inefficiency can victimize families again and again.” In the book, Reynolds takes readers behind the scenes of the investigation and legal battles that followed. She explores the intersection of mental illness, drugs, a poorly managed state hospital, and an overwhelmed court system, a toxic mix that delayed justice and deepened the family's trauma. Social media users have flocked to platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter) to express support for the Painter family and outrage over the legal delays. Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. A user on X posted: “Unbelievable that it took 8 years to convict the murderer of a Police Chief. Thank you Alan Painter and @RosemaryReynolds for finally bringing this to light. #JusticeForRalph #TrappedInTheSystem” The book also honors the memory of Ralph Painter beyond his uniform. It reflects on his legacy as a father, husband, grandfather, and dedicated public servant. He was beloved by his community, and his passing left a deep void. In 2011, Oregon honored him by dedicating an 18-mile stretch of Highway 30 as the Ralph Painter Memorial Highway. “We can replace a Chief of Police, but we'll never replace Ralph,” said longtime friend Larry Gates. In the courtroom on the day of the sentencing, the pain was palpable. Ralph's wife, children, and mother spoke directly to the killer. “You took my son... I feel you killed him in cold blood,” said Kathy Painter, Ralph's mother, addressing the killer. “No family should wait eight years to have justice for their loved one.” Through tears and resilience, the Painter family has chosen to remember Ralph not by how he died, but by how he lived. Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. “Heroes are never forgotten,” said Ralph's daughter in court. “People may forget cowards, but they remember those who stood for something.” Alan Painter continues to advocate for reform, hoping that Trapped In The System will spark conversations and inspire accountability. The story is far from over. Listeners can hear more in an interview with Allan as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also streaming now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other major platforms.

This Lukan fable has a pretty clear message: Wealth creates an impassable crevasse between humans. Wealth is only one of the many things that can create impassable crevasses between people; so too can race and religion and immigration status, to name a few more. But I have to believe the fable is ultimately meant to inspire us to bridge crevasses before it's too late. This sermon will take you to the midnight bedroom of Ebenezer Scrooge, to the summit of Mt. Rainier (aka “mama Tahoma”), to a jail cell in Durham NC, and to an Executive Board decision of some uncharacteristically speedy Mennonites. Buckle up and come along for the ride; we need one another more than ever. And please remember: I do not answer questions. I do not answer questions. I do not answer questions. We keep each other safe, beloveds.Sermon begins at minute marker 5:22Luke 16.19-31ResourcesBibleWorm podcast: Episode 633 - The Rich Man and Lazarus, Amy Robertson and Robert Williamson, Jr'Crevice' and 'Crevasse': A Gap in Meaning, Merriam-Webster.Anabaptist Community BibleNew release: “MC USA and more than two dozen Christian and Jewish denominations and associations sue to protect religious freedoms,” February 11, 2025.Isaac Samuel Villegas, Migrant God: A Christian Vision for Immigrant Justice (Eerdmans, 2025), 6-8.Front Light podcast, by Mennonite Action, “From ‘quiet in the land' to suing the US Government, reflections on Mennonite advocacy with Iris de León-Hartshorn,” Season 1, Episode 4 (2025). Mennonite Action: “God's Love Knows No Borders” actions, 2025.Know Your Rights with ICE, by WAISN (Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network)Rebecca Solnit, A piece for all hard times.

Welcome! I'm Gregg Swanson, a performance coach who believes in the power of resilience. From surviving an avalanche on Mt. Rainier to coaching professionals for over 20 years, I've learned that mental strength is the key to thriving in both life and business. Whether climbing a mountain or climbing the sales ladder, I'm here to help you reach new heights by taking a deeper look at the power of forming a habit. Table of Contents Toggle Introduction to Forming a HabitUnderstanding the Core Concept: The Science of Forming a HabitThe Four Stages of Forming a HabitStage 1: Unconscious Incompetence – The Unknown ProblemStage 2: Conscious Incompetence – The StruggleStage 3: Conscious Competence – The Habit Takes RootStage 4: Unconscious Competence – The Habit Becomes AutomaticHow to Apply This to Your LifeRelated Posts Introduction to Forming a Habit What if I told you that success isn't about motivation or willpower? It's about your habits. The things you do daily…whether consciously or unconsciously…shape your future. But forming a habit isn't as simple as just doing something repeatedly. It requires a deeper understanding of how habits are formed in the brain and how to move from struggle to automation. A study by Phillippa Lally at University College London found that, on average, it takes 66 days to establish a new habit. However, the process isn't linear. It follows four distinct stages, each requiring a different mindset and strategy. Understanding these four stages will help you master any habit…whether it's improving your fitness, boosting productivity, or enhancing mental resilience. Let's dive into the four stages of forming a habit and how you can use them to take control of your success. Understanding the Core Concept: The Science of Forming a Habit Every habit follows a predictable psychological pattern. It begins as something unfamiliar and difficult, but through repetition, it becomes automatic. The four stages of habit formation represent the journey from struggle to mastery. The brain creates habits as a way to conserve energy. When we repeat a behavior in response to a cue, the brain forms neural pathways that make the action easier over time. Eventually, the habit becomes so ingrained that it happens automatically…without conscious thought. This is why habits can either empower us or trap us in negative cycles. The key to forming a habit is to recognize where you are in this journey and push through each stage with intentionality. This is where most people fail. They get stuck in the second stage…when a habit feels difficult…and give up before reaching automation. But by understanding the process, you can move forward with confidence. Why This is Important Mastering the four stages of forming a habit is life-changing. Think about the most successful people you know. Do you think they rely on motivation every day? No. They have built habits that automate success. When you learn how to form habits effectively, you can: Break free from bad habits that drain your energy. Build habits that support peak performance. Develop mental and physical resilience. Free up mental energy for creativity and strategic thinking. The quality of your habits determines the quality of your life. You can either spend your mental energy on distractions, or you can preserve it for actions that drive your success. The choice is yours. The Four Stages of Forming a Habit Stage 1: Unconscious Incompetence – The Unknown Problem At this stage, you might not even realize you have a habit that needs to change. Or, you recognize a bad habit but have no idea how to stop it. This is the stage of unawareness. For example, imagine someone who wakes up and immediately checks their phone. They feel drained, unfocused, and frustrated throughout the day, but they don't connect their morning routine to their lack of productivity. They are stuck in unconscious incompetence…they don't know...

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers It's a little after midnight on the morning of Monday January 9th. We're at P.J. Clarke's on the corner of 55th street and 3rd avenue, getting warm the best way we know how. The weather is nasty outside. It's about fifteen degrees with freezing rain and gale force winds. Clarke's is a bar from another time. It's wonderfully trapped in nostalgia—all burnished wood and chased mirrors. Orson Welles is opening King Lear at The City Center to good reviews. The years in Europe did him well, but he's happy to be back in New York. Welles is in the back with none other than Frank Sinatra. They've known each other since the 1930s, and since they both missed each other's fortieth birthdays last year, we're celebrating. Joining us is Jilly Rizzo and Bill Stern. The next round of drinks is on me. That's Daniel Levazzo. He bought the bar from the Clarke family a few years ago. Hey Dan, three Jacks straight up, a negroni for Orson, and I'll have Hendricks on the rocks. You want something? Hey Dan, let me borrow your phone, I've got to file my story. Hello Operator, give me CBS at 485 Madison Avenue please. (Beat) Yes I know what time it is. I'm a producer there. (Beat) Put me through. (Beat) Thank you. Some things never change. Hello Cindy, it's Scully. Is Ed Murrow still there? (Beat) Could you put me through to him? (Beat) Thank you. (Beat) Hey Ed, It's James Scully. I'm glad I caught you. Bill Paley's got you burning the midnight oil huh? (Beat) I did. Orson was good. I'm a P.J. Clarke's with him and Sinatra right now. Bill Stern's here too. You want to swing by? I'll get Dan Levazzo to break out the moonshine. (Beat) With those two? We'll be here a while. (Beat) Ha! Ok I'll see you soon. Ed Murrow's a good man. The gang will be happy to see him. Dan, Do me a favor, turn the TV up for a second. The Tonight Show with Steve Allen is just finishing on NBC-TV and there's a little news item on the tube before programming signs off. Everyone is talking about Grace Kelly's engagement to Prince Rainier III of Monaco. It was announced in Philadelphia on January 5th and their party is going to be at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel here in New York. Grace and Rainier went their separate ways on Saturday. She's going back to Hollywood to keep working on High Society. The only thing is, one of her co-stars is Sinatra, and he'll be in no mood to fly to the coast tomorrow. That's not the only talk of love and marriage going on around New York City. Look at that Sunday Daily News cover. Heiress Juliette Wehle stood up her husband-to-be on their wedding day. She supposedly slipped away at 2AM wearing just a negligee to elope with another man. Don't worry, it's not a roving producer from CBS. The twenty-year-old heiress later returned home, unmarried. Excuse me, I'm missing out on the fun. Oh, before I go, I should say that the story of a woman jilting one man for another is ironically a centerpiece in the upcoming plot within Yours Truly Johnny Dollar's “The Todd Matter.” The first episode will air later tonight at 8:15PM over CBS radio. And remember, it stars Bob Bailey.
