Email Katelyn@bewealthy.com with the subject line "Be Wealthy Podcast MM" to learn more. Brett and Katelyn kick off a six-part series breaking down how wealthy people actually think about their money.

In this episode Camden Bucey welcomes Dr. Jonathan Master, president of Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary and host of the new podcast Dead Presbyterians Society. Together, they reflect on the theology and practice of public prayer, drawing upon the insights of 19th-century Presbyterian theologian Samuel Miller and his underappreciated classic, Thoughts on Public Prayer. The conversation addresses the enduring importance of prayer in the public ministry of the church. Dr. Master discusses why pastors must be both God's mouthpiece to the people through preaching and the people's mouthpiece to God through prayer. The episode includes a full episode of Dead Presbyterian Society, in which Master offers a deep and moving treatment of Miller's work—highlighting frequent faults in public prayer, the characteristics of excellent prayer, and the secret devotional habits that sustain it. Whether you're a pastor, elder, seminarian, or thoughtful church member, this episode is a call to recover the dignity, order, and spiritual power of public prayer in Reformed worship.

A few tips for reading:- If it doesn't interest you, you probably won't learn anything, so you can drop it.- You're not in a race to finish the book, in fact, the slower the better. Take a year or two to finish if you need to.- You can read multiple books at a time. I often have 3 books and an audiobook that I bounce between. You'd be surprised how many connections you make.- Create a reading ritual. At least 30 minutes every day. Listen to an audiobook on a daily walk, or leave the books you're reading around the house so you can pick them up instead of scroll your phone.––– Tools & Resources –––Kortex signup (the prompt library will be added to your workspace): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://kortex.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The "my life plan" template: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://app.kortex.co/public/document/883d9246-6dde-4794-9f54-92b8ff07d502⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://theartoffocusbook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠2 Hour Writer (writing course): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://2hourwriter.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠One-Person Business Launchpad (beginner business course): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thedankoe.com/get/opbl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠––– Free Guides & Mini Courses –––One-Person Business Foundations (free):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://theone-personbusiness.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Generate Infinite Creative Ideas (free):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://7daystogeniusideas.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠13 Brand, Content, & Marketing Trainings (free):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://theone-personbusiness.com/#trainings⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠––– Kortex –––My writing and note-taking app:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://kortex.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Kortex Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kortex⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The persuasive thinking template:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://app.kortex.co/public/document/bec7fcec-d76c-4d00-8669-37f53892fead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free second brain course (and community):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://community.kortex.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Writer's Bootcamp (now with YouTube strategy):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bootcamp.kortex.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠––– My Products –––My book:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://theartoffocusbook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠One-Person Business Launchpad:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thedankoe.com/get/opbl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Idea Museum (write faster):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thedankoe.com/get/idea-museum⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠2 Hour-Writer (foundational skill):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://2hourwriter.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠––– More Content –––The Koe Letter - the written version of this video:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thedankoe.com/letters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠This podcast was originally a YouTube video: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtu.be/0OEtXlPtyYk––– Socials –––Twitter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/thedankoe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/thedankoe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/c/DanKoeTalks⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linkedin.com/in/thedankoe

If you're feeling stuck, I invite you to reach out to me! Let's hop on a Journey Mapping call. In this call, we'll go through what your vision is, what big assumptions you might be making that are holding you back, and how I can support you in moving forward.  You deserve to operate from a place of joy and fulfillment… place that's totally aligned with who you are and what you want in the world. I'm here to help, my love! www.consciousedge.com/schedule   Get full show notes at  www.consciousedge.com/ep050   In today's solo episode, Why Some People Build a Business and Create Wealth Reading Books While Others Can't, I'm diving deep into a pattern I see all the time. Why is it that some people can read a book, immediately take action, and build incredible success while others get stuck, frustrated, and never move forward? We'll talk about the real reason this happens, what role mindset and internal blocks play, and how you can finally break through and step fully into the success you're meant for. The summary:  Some people expect books and programs to deliver a “secret sauce” but success often depends on how you apply the information. Business fundamentals are simple; the "magic" is in how you act on them, not in constantly chasing new methods. Inner resistance, fear, and unconscious beliefs ("your big assumptions") often block you from taking action. It's not that the strategy or tool is broken, it's that fears of failure, rejection, judgment, or success itself can sabotage execution. Coaches and mentors share their methods openly, but it's up to individuals to overcome their personal mindset challenges. True success demands taking personal responsibility rather than blaming coaches, strategies, or external circumstances. Entrepreneurship requires becoming the kind of person who can hold bigger success, not just knowing the steps. Knowledge is easy to access. Real growth comes from doing the inner work to align your mindset with your goals.

In Nov. 2024, The Atlantic's cover article rang alarm bells among readers, writers, college professors and parents alike. The article was headlined: The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books.The premise is that many students admitted to elite colleges arrive having read very few books all the way through.“It's not that they don't want to do the reading,” says the article. “It's that they don't know how. Middle and high schools have stopped asking them to.”This week on Big Books and Bold Ideas, two writers who have also been college literature professors share their views on the article's argument. What have they seen in their own students? And how can deep reading be encouraged?Guests: Karen Swallow Prior is an English professor, a monthly columnist for Religion News Service and the author of, among other books, “On Reading Well: Finding the Good Life Through Great Books.”Taiyon Coleman is dean of liberal arts and academic foundations at North Hennepin Community College.

From his debut feature "It's Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books" – a film he made with almost no budget, Richard Linklater kick started his career. Shot on Super 8, and literally drove around the country screening himself – He made the cult classic "Dazed and Confused," the romantic trilogy "Before Sunrise," "Before Sunset," and "Before Midnight," the animated rotoscope experiments of "Waking Life" and "A Scanner Darkly," and the groundbreaking, 12-years-in-the-making "Boyhood," Linklater has consistently defied expectations and carved his own path with a signature style that's both intimate and epic.   From his breakout role in "Scream Queens" to his scene-stealing performance as Chad Radwell in "Everybody Wants Some!!" – Richard Linklater's ode to college life in the 80s – Glen Powell has been steadily building an impressive resume. He's charmed audiences in rom-coms like "Set It Up," and "Anyone But You" showcased his dramatic chops in the true-life war epic "Devotion," and, of course, soared to new heights as the cocky but ultimately heroic Hangman in "Top Gun: Maverick and very recently blew us away in the brilliant 'Twisters'.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 18, 2024 is: denigrate • DEN-ih-grayt • verb To denigrate someone is to criticize them heavily and often unfairly. Denigrate can also mean "to make something seem less important or valuable." // Her essay denigrates her mentor as a person and as a teacher. // Though initially quick to denigrate the work that had been done, the group quickly realized that those efforts had laid a good foundation for what they themselves hoped to accomplish. See the entry > Examples: "As much as I want to have good taste in books, as much as I want to use that status to sell books that I think make the world a better place … I need to be cognizant of ways people like me have used 'good taste' as an act of cultural authoritarianism to manipulate culture, denigrate creations from other identities, and empower themselves at the expense of others." — Josh Cook, The Art of Libromancy: Selling Books and Reading Books in the Twenty-First Century, 2023 Did you know? The word denigrate has been part of English since the 16th century and can be traced back to the Latin nigrare, meaning "to blacken." When denigrate was first used, it meant "to cast aspersions on someone's character or reputation." Eventually, it developed a second sense of "to make black" ("factory smoke denigrated the sky"), representing an interesting case of a literal sense (now rare) following a figurative one. Nowadays, you're most likely to hear denigrate used as a synonym of defame or belittle.
