The rebrightening of AT2018fyk as a repeating partial tidal disruption event by T. Wevers et al. on Monday 19 September Stars that interact with supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can either be completely or partially destroyed by tides. In a partial tidal disruption event (TDE) the high-density core of the star remains intact, and the low-density, outer envelope of the star is stripped and feeds a luminous accretion episode. The TDE AT2018fyk, with an inferred black hole mass of $10^{7.7pm0.4}$ M$_{odot}$, experienced an extreme dimming event at X-ray (factor of $>$6000) and UV (factor $sim$15) wavelengths $sim$500--600 days after discovery. Here we report on the re-emergence of these emission components roughly 1200 days after discovery. We find that the source properties are similar to those of the pre-dimming accretion state, suggesting that the accretion flow was rejuvenated to a similar state. We propose that a repeating partial TDE, where the partially disrupted star is on a $sim 1200$ day orbit about the SMBH and is periodically stripped of mass during each pericenter passage, powers its unique lightcurve. This scenario provides a plausible explanation for AT2018fyk's overall properties, including the rapid dimming event and the rebrightening at late times. We also provide testable predictions for the behavior of the accretion flow in the future: if the second encounter was also a partial disruption then we predict another strong dimming event around day 1800 (August 2023), and a subsequent rebrightening around day 2400 (March 2025). This source provides strong evidence of the partial disruption of a star by a SMBH. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.07538v2

Quantum fluctuations masquerade as halos: Bounds on ultra-light dark matter from quadruply-imaged quasars by Alexander Laroche et al. on Sunday 18 September Ultra-light dark matter (ULDM) refers to a class of theories, including ultra-light axions, in which particles with mass $m_{psi} < 10^{-20}, rm{eV}$ comprise a significant fraction of the dark matter. A galactic scale de Broglie wavelength distinguishes these theories from cold dark matter (CDM), suppressing the overall abundance of structure on sub-galactic scales, and producing wave-like interference phenomena in the density profiles of halos. With the aim of constraining the particle mass, we analyze the flux ratios in a sample of eleven quadruple-image strong gravitational lenses. We account for the suppression of the halo mass function and concentration-mass relation predicted by ULDM theories, and the wave-like fluctuations in the host halo density profile, calibrating the model for the wave interference against numerical simulations of galactic-scale halos. We show that the granular structure of halo density profiles, in particular, the amplitude of the fluctuations, significantly impacts image flux ratios, and therefore inferences on the particle mass derived from these data. We infer relative likelihoods of CDM to ULDM of 8:1, 7:1, 6:1, and 4:1 for particle masses $log_{10}(m_psi/rm{eV})in[-22.5,-22.25], [-22.25,-22.0],[-22.0,-21.75], [-21.75,-21.5]$, respectively. Repeating the analysis and omitting fluctuations associated with the wave interference effects, we obtain relative likelihoods of CDM to ULDM with a particle mass in the same ranges of 98:1, 48:1, 26:1 and 18:1, highlighting the significant perturbation to image flux ratios associated with the fluctuations. Nevertheless, our results disfavor the lightest particle masses with $m_{psi} < 10^{-21.5},rm{eV}$, adding to mounting pressure on ultra-light axions as a viable dark matter candidate. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2206.11269v2

Symmetry Breaking in Repeating Fast Radio Bursts by J. I. Katz. on Tuesday 13 September Repeating Fast Radio Bursts show temporal symmetry breaking on millisecond time scales (the "sad trombone"). On a time scale of days the repetitions of FRB 180916B occur at frequency-dependent phases of its 16.3 d period. Some models predict that all such periodic repeating FRB have the same sign of temporal asymmetry, while others predict that sources with both signs are equally abundant. Future observations of other periodically modulated repeating FRB may distinguish among models on this basis. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.01700v2

Home sales are starting to slump, days on market continue to climb, and price drops are becoming the new norm. Are we on the cusp of a 2008 housing market crash repeat? Or, are these eerily similar signs of a large-scale sell-off just coincidental, without much backing behind them? The On The Market Team wanted to know exactly how close we are to repeating the same mistakes from fourteen years ago, and whether or not the runup in buying activity over 2020 and 2021 could lead to a lackluster housing market for years to come.We've brought our entire panel of experts back on the show so we can get an up-to-date read on everything happening in today's housing market. With fears of a recession on the horizon, buyers and sellers live in fear of what could happen next. But are these “panicky” investors looking at the full data set that Dave and the rest of the team have been able to dig up?In this episode, we'll compare four of the most important metrics that could influence today's housing market to 2008 data. These include consumer debt and mortgage quality, defaults and home foreclosures, housing market inventory, and appreciation and growth rates. Are we closer to a housing market apocalypse than we thought or are media outlets using a “crash” as a fear tactic to keep homebuyers out of the loop?In This Episode We CoverAugust housing market data and whether or not real estate still looks strongCrash vs. correction predictions and which way the market could slideMortgage quality stats and where modern-day homebuyers stand when compared to 2008A massive year-over-year increase in foreclosures and how it may hurt the housing marketDemographic data that could force first-time homebuyers to get even more desperateLessons learned from the 2008 crash and what experts and investors warn againstAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets AgentJoin BiggerPockets for FREEOn The MarketJoin the Future of Real Estate Investing with FundriseConnect with Other Investors in the “On The Market” ForumsSubscribe to The “On The Market” YouTube ChannelFind an Investor Friendly Agent in Your AreaDave's BiggerPockets ProfileDave's InstagramHenry's BiggerPockets ProfileHenry's InstagramJames' BiggerPockets ProfileJames' InstagramJamil's BiggerPockets ProfileJamil's InstagramKathy's BiggerPockets ProfileKathy's InstagramHear Our Interview About Foreclosures with Rick ShargaGet Redfin's Up-To-Date Housing Market DataKey Takeaways From the '08 Recession That Apply TodayCheck the full show notes here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/on-the-market-34Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

Rotation Measure Variations and Reversals of Repeating Fast Radio Bursts in Massive Binary Systems by Z. Y. Zhao et al. on Monday 12 September Recent observations discovered that some repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) show complex variations and reversals of Faraday rotation measures (RMs), indicating the sources of these FRBs are embedded in a dynamically magnetized environment. One possible scenario is that repeating FRBs generated by pulsars in binary systems, especially containing a high-mass companion with strong stellar outflows. Here, we study the RM variations caused by stellar winds, and a possible stellar disc. If the magnetic field is radial in the stellar wind, RM will reach the peak at periastron and will not reverse. For the toroidal magnetic field in the wind, RM will reverse at the super conjunction. The $left| mathrm{RM} right|$ evolution is symmetric before and after the periastron for a radial magnetic field, or the super conjunction for a toroidal magnetic field. For the case of the toroidal field in the disc, the RM variations only occur at the time when the pulsar passes through the inclined disc before and after periastron. Our model can explain the secular RM variation of FRB 20180916B. Besides, the clumps in the stellar wind and disc can cause short time-scale ($< 1$ day) variations or reversals of RM. Therefore, long-term monitoring of RM variations can reveal the origins of FRBs. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.05242v1

Repeating Fast Radio Bursts with High Burst Rates by Plate Collisions in Neutron Star Crusts by Qiao-Chu Li et al. on Monday 12 September Some repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources show high burst rates, and the physical origin is still unknown. Outstandingly, the first repeater FRB 121102 appears extremely high burst rate with the maximum value reaching $122,mathrm{h^{-1}}$ or even higher. In this work, we propose that the high burst rate of an FRB repeater may be due to plate collisions in the crust of young neutron stars (NSs). In the crust of an NS, vortex lines are pinned to the lattice nuclei. When the relative angular velocity between the superfluid neutrons and the NS lattices is nonzero, a pinned force will act on the vortex lines, which will cause the lattice displacement and the strain on the NS crust growing. With the spin evolution, the crustal strain reaches a critical value, then the crust may crack into plates, and each of plates will collide with its adjacent ones. The Aflv'en wave could be launched by the plate collisions and further produce FRBs. In this scenario, the predicted burst rate can reach $sim 770,mathrm{h}^{-1}$ for an NS with the magnetic field of $10^{13},rm{G}$ and the spin period of $0.01,rm{s}$. We further apply this model to FRB 121102, and predict the waiting time and energy distribution to be $P(t_{mathrm{w}}) propto t_{text{w}}^{alpha_{t_{text{w}}}}$ with $alpha_{t_{text{w}}} simeq -1.75$ and $N(E)text{d}E propto E^{alpha_{E}}text{d}E$ with $alpha_{E} simeq -1.67$, respectively. These properties are consistent with the observations of FRB 121102. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.04774v1

"I think that writing also is among the things that help me think this through and get there. When I finished my degree, I was actually very pessimistic - I had no idea that at close to age 55-56 that a psychoanalytic institute would even consider me but I did decide to take the leap and I ended up going to BPSI [Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute] and here I am." — Ellen Pinsky    "The training time was a time of discovering - we read the authors I knew, and what was happening to me also at that moment, what kind of an analyst would I be during and after the training? My background encouraged me to go on - when it was difficult to go on searching for the truth, searching for the knowledge, but the knowledge about myself during the training and it went on in my actual training analysis." —Susana Merlo    Episode Description: We discuss Susana's and Ellen's first careers in education and what led them "to wish to go deeper." They both describe the formative contributions of their own analyses as well as the influence of analytic writers that they valued. We consider the possible advantages and disadvantages of each of the many backgrounds that we bring to our clinical work and share conclusions about the similarities and differences in how we practice. We discuss some of their favorite writers and we conclude with their perspectives on the future of psychoanalysis both in the States and in Argentina.    Our Guests:  Susana Ruth Merlo is a member of APdeBA (Asociación Psicoanalítica de Buenos Aires, Argentina) and holds a position as an Associated Professor at IUSAM of APdeBA (Instituto Universitario de Salud Mental de APdeBA), where she teaches Introduction to the ideas of Melanie Klein and English School. She provided school psychological services in school settings for 15 years. At present provides therapy to children, adolescents, and adults in a private clinic setting. Susana holds two university degrees, School Psychology (1986) and Clinical Psychology (2007).    Ellen Pinsky came to psychoanalysis as a second profession following 25 years as a middle school English teacher. She says her experience in the classroom with 12 and 13-year-olds taught her most of what she needed to know to become a credible clinician. She is the author of Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter: Mortal Gifts. About her book, Thomas Ogden writes: “Mortal Gifts is a necessary book—necessary for analysts and necessary for the analyses they conduct. In it, Ellen addresses a long-neglected issue in the practice of psychoanalysis: the analyst's failure to include in the very fiber of the analysis the fact of his or her mortality.” In 2014 she was awarded BPSI's Deutsch Prize for her essay “The Olympian Delusion” (JAPA, 2011)    Recommended Readings:  SM  Bion, W.

At a time when autocrats are rampaging and our democracies are weakening, the need for citizens to defend their rights has never been greater. But, does speaking truth to power matter in the real world? While we celebrate the bravery and eloquence of those who stand up to injustice and overweening authority, too often the bad guys seem to win. What would it take to change that outcome? The Tällberg Foundation recently hosted a conversation among three of the good “guys:” Kenyan poet Sitawa Namwalie, Bangladeshi photographer and activist Shahidul Alam, and American human rights lawyer Jared Genser. Their discussion was hosted in Vamvakou, Greece by the Vamvakou Revival and SNF (the Stavros Niarchos Foundation). Listen as they discuss the reality in the trenches of the fight for human rights.

Anna Kerry went from yoga fan and enthusiast to Yoga teacher. Then the pandemic hit. A   year later, at age 35, she had a stroke due to as PFO. In this episode she shares her story. She tells us how yoga got her through stroke recovery and how it informs her work today. Anna talks about the relationship between trauma and yoga, and she talks about the impact stroke has had on her life with her husband. As Anna has gone through this journey and continued both her studies and her teaching, she developed a yoga program specifically for stroke survivors. And Anna explores the power and near sacredness of her own yoga mat. If you don't see the audio player below, visit http://Strokecast.com/Anna to listen to the conversation.   Click here for a machine-generated transcript Who is Anna Kerry? In Anna's own words: I had a stroke aged 35 in March 2021. I've had a regular yoga practice for about 10 years and decided I loved the practice so much that I wanted to learn how to teach and share my love of yoga. I qualified in Aug 2020 and had only been teaching for around 7 months when I had a stroke. As the stroke came out of the blue I had to dig deep into my yoga practice to help me through and believe that my yoga practice has helped my mindset and my mental health during this traumatic time. I'm now in a position where I want to help other stroke survivors through their recovery so I designed The Life After Stroke Programme -- a 6 week programme designed to help stroke survivors regain their life and confidence through a holistic and embodied approach to recovery. What is a PFO? Anna's stroke was caused by a PFO. She found that out a month after her stroke, and she will likely get it fixed eventually. A PFO is a hole in the heart. Roughly 25% of the population has one. I have one. Guests Misha Montana and Christine Lee both had PFOs that led to their strokes. After we are born, our blood follows a path through the heart. It comes in the right side. When the heart beats, the blood on the right side heads out of the heart to the lungs. There, it drops of CO2, picks up oxygen, filters out clots, and heads to the left side of the heart. It will pour into the left side and when the heart beats, it sends that oxygen-rich blood on to the brain and other parts of the body. Then that blood drops off its oxygen, picks up CO2, and heads back to the right side of the heart to start the whole cycle over. Before we are born, though, the process is different. While we are developing in our mothers' uteruses, we don't breath air. All the oxygen and nutrients we need to build fingers and toes and kidneys and hearts and brains comes from the umbilical cord. Since we're not breathing air, there's no point in sending blood to the lungs. Instead, in utero it goes straight from the right side of the heart to the left side of the heart through a hole in the middle. That hole is called a Patent Foramen Ovale, or a PFO. It normally closes on its own shortly after we are born. A quarter of the time it doesn't close after birth, and that allows unoxygenated, unfiltered blood to sneak across the heart, skip the lungs and drag a blood clot to the brain. So, if you've had a stroke, and you have a PFO, should you have surgery to close that hole? Maybe. Christine and Misha had their PFOs closed. I did not. Anna is waiting to get her PFO closed. I talked about this issue in a lot more detail with Dr. David Thaler. You can listen to that conversation at http://Strokecast.com/pfo. A Place of Her Own Anna Kerry has a special place in this world -- it's her yoga mat. At first glance, it's just a piece of material, but once she is on her mat it becomes a portal to take her to another special place. The mat allows her to center herself. It's a place she can experience joy and agony; happiness and anger; tears and laughter; and everything in between. When Anna is on her mat she can take a break from the rest of the world so that she can deal with the rest of the world. It triggers a mind shift to put her in a place where she can process things and, well, do yoga. Lots of us have things like a yoga mat. Maybe it's a special blanket or a childhood toy. Maybe it's a trinket that takes us back to a trip we took years ago or it's a gift from a lover or friend. Perhaps it's a special chair that holds our memories of the past. Once we touch or engage with that thing -- whatever it is -- we can feel a change in our own energy. Is that a bit woo-woo? Not really. Perhaps it is a metaphysical portal to a different plane of time and energy. Or perhaps it's another example of the core principle of neuroplasticity -- cell that fire together, wire together. Our brains work on patterns and shortcuts. That's why therapy works. The more repetitions w get in PT, OT, or Speech Therapy, the more we drive new neural pathways so we can walk, speak, or bake cookies again. Repeating a process reinforces those connections until we can almost do it automatically. A special place -- like Anna's yoga mat -- can do that, too. Sitting down on that mat can kick off those routines in the brain that shift us to a different place. The object starts the program running in our brains, and our brains do the rest. And the really great thing about Anna's yoga mat is that when life dictates, she can roll up her special place and take it with her. Other Yoga Themed Episodes Teaching Yoga after a Stroke with Leslie Hadley  Leslie Hadley went from Corporate executive to yoga teacher to stroke survivor and back to yoga teacher. Along the way she added life coach and tapping expert to her repertoire. She joins us in this episode to share her journey and explain what tapping and the Emotional Freedom technique is. Stroke, Naps, Gratitude, and Yoga with News Anchor Kristen Aguirre Kristen worked as a news anchor in Denver, survived a stroke, and was fired. She worked to pick up the pieces of her life, returned to the anchor desk back east and found gratitude is the key. Win of the Week Shelly shared her win of the week with us. You can hear it in the episode. Here's what she had to say: My name is Shelly, and I had a stroke four months ago. I was at the hospital for two weeks of acute rehab. I came home in a wheelchair, but I've been working really hard, and this week I did my farthest walk -- 4.2 miles. Things are still not 100% for sure. My arm isn't working that well. I can't feel in the arm. But the leg -- I've just been walking so much that I think things have improved. The more I've done, the more I think things improve. I didn't understand that when I first had the stroke. In physical therapy, when they would say that I could learn to walk without feeling, but as I've done it and now people can't always tell that I had a stroke when I walk, so that's been exciting for me. Thanks for letting us be part of your recovery, Shelly! What is a recent win you've had? Maybe you walked a lot. Or said a complete paragraph out loud. Or got a new job. Or slept a whole night. Or chewed and swallowed regular food without incident. Or booked a new OT appointment. I want to know what's gone well with you, big or small. And I want to share it with the listeners. You can record a brief message telling me who you are, when your stroke was and what you accomplished. You can do this with the voice memo feature on your phone or another recording process and email that recording to Bill@strokecast.com. Or you can do it the simple way. Simply call (321) 5stroke, any time day or night, and leave a voicemail describing your win. I'll share wins in future episodes so we can all celebrate with you. Hack of the Week Anna explained we need to take time to check in with ourselves. Yoga breathwork is one way to do that. It doesn't need to be yoga, though. Anna offered 3 key ways to do this. First, don't shy away from your feelings. A therapist can help you explore them further. Stroke is trauma. Grieving is natural. Clinical Depression is a common result of stroke (see http://Strokecast.com/depression for more information). It's a major life change and it's perfectly normal to feel feelings about it. Ignoring them won't make them better. Therapists can help. Neuropsychologists are also available with special training to help folks with brain injuries (see http://Strokecast.com/karen for more details). Second, acknowledge and recognize anger, anxiety, and other uncomfortable feelings. Those feelings are trying to tell you something. Talk to your anxiety like it's a small child. It wants attention and it's throwing a tantrum. Why? Third, offer yourself kindness and compassion. You're not an expert in this new body, brain, and life. You'll get things wrong, and that's okay. Forgive yourself for not having it all figured out. Links Where do we go from here?

Gradually making my way through ‘Summa Theologica: Volume I' on audiobook, yesterday's reading featured Aquinas talking about eternity and time. Consequently, here's a mind-blowing idea for you: God is His own eternity. But what does that mean? I confess to not fully knowing. Even so, these are not useless or trivial ideas to contemplate. Aquinas stands as the last great medieval scholar of theology. So whereas theology was regarded up until the Enlightenment and our Modern era as “the queen of the sciences,” this really is saying something. Whether you agree with him or not, or even know what to make of him, this is not fluff and stuff. But reading him really is good mental and spiritual exercise. Even so, there are practical troubles to be found in reading books like Summa Theologica. The frank truth is that many folks find this pointless at best. And some feel downright threatened by it, and react with hostility accordingly. Besides that, another byproduct of reading these sorts of books is that you start to talk funny. And this is because you think funny. When most people don't cultivate their minds or inform their opinions this way, doing so makes you stick out. So what if nobody cares? And what if nobody wants to hear it? To not be just another recluse who keeps to himself, sitting around the house waiting for the next chance to talk with other people who are well-read, you might find yourself on the horns of a dilemma. Give up on reading to fit in, or keep prodding everyone around you to join you? Someone I've been listening to recently who navigates this well is Dr. Jordan B. Cooper. About my age, Cooper is a Lutheran minister who has his own podcast and YouTube channel - Just and Sinner - where he talks about theology and church history. In a video examining the methodology at the heart of Michael Heiser's 'Supernatural' and 'The Unseen Realm,' Cooper does a fine job carefully unpacking the presuppositions, assumptions, priorities, and tradition which explain why men like them disagree over what to make of Biblical passages about angels, demons, and gods. Be it known I agree with some of Cooper's biggest concerns - about not only Heiser's methodology, but also John Walton's found in books like ‘The Lost World of Genesis One.' At the same time, I confess to agreeing with many of Heiser's conclusions about the competing religions of the world not just being demonic in the abstract. The gods of those religions are, or were, actual and personal demons. And I would appeal to Augustine on this point; my reading of City of God puts he and I on the same side of this question. To make something of my closing point here, though, consider the story from just yesterday by Joel Abbot at Not the Bee, of FBI special agent Timothy Thibault, who resigned last week and was escorted from the building Monday. He it is who reportedly pressed the bureau to investigate President Trump, to not investigate Hunter Biden, to inflate domestic extremism stats towards putting angry American parents on terrorist watch lists, and to fire agents who refused the COVID vaccine. Repeating myself, I will say that the trouble with conspiracy theories is that sometimes they turn out to be true. And reading great books helps us know when they are or may well be. Thus to read great books is not just a safeguard in the abstract, but at every level practically. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/support

You work on them together or you all fall over the cliff together.” And while cooperation sounds like a smart idea, Chomsky doubts the US will go along. “The US orders allies to follow its rules-based international order while China calls for the UN-based international order. And the US doesn't accept that for a very good reason: the UN rules out US foreign policy explicitly. The UN charter bans the threat or use of force in international affairs. Can you think of a US president who hasn't engaged in a threat or use of force?” This sparks an analysis of US censorship and how the government can suppress the truth without throwing us in gulags. “Read things carefully that do come out: the Washington Post had a long, comprehensive article in which they reviewed in great detail the background for the war. Nothing in it about possible negotiations. They don't want it on the agenda.” Plus, subscribe for the extended interview in which Noam Chomsky explains his worst fear if the Republicans take control of Congress, calls out politicians who oppose forgiving student loans, and criticizes the underwhelming US response to climate change.

In his classic must-read book, “Knowing God”, the late theologian J.I. Packer gives some advice to all Christians that I believe is especially appropriate for parents. As moms and dads committed to leading our kids into a vibrant and genuine life-long faith in Jesus Christ, we should take Packer's guidance to heart. Packer says that the secret to a God-honoring and Christian life is to take six core truths about the faith and say them over and over to ourselves first thing in the morning, last thing at night, and any time our minds are free. Here they are. First, I am a child of God. Second, God is my father. Third, Heaven is my home. Fourth, Every day is one day nearer. Fifth, My savior is my brother. And sixth, every Christian is my brother too. Repeating these six truths will ground us as parents in our Christian faith. But in an effort to ground our kids as they grow up in a culture that blows their minds and hearts to and fro, we should be saying them out lout with our kids as well. 

“For the first time in human history, we face a planetary emergency.” Those words were written by Johan Rockström, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. Scientists tend to be sober, measured in their assessments and with a preference for others to draw the big picture conclusions. So, when an earth scientist as distinguished and accomplished as Rockström writes that “Human pressures on earth have reached dangerously high levels” which could imperil humanity's survival, we should listen. Are you listening? If so, what do you think? And, more importantly, what are you going to do? This episode was originally published on June 23, 2022

We got a lot of things in the final episode, much of it simply ABJECT HORROR, but there were a few good things and at the top of that small pile of good, is the implied smash. So let's talk about it. Villanelle looks the happiest she's ever been and Eve is at her jauntiest. We could have had it alllllllll! However sadly, the only gay wedding we get is one that makes no sense, as Eve and Villanelle embark on their final mission to take out the 12.More than halfway into the “finale” and it begins to feel like there were only six episodes of the show written with the first and last split into two.

I'm grabbing another one from the archives for you this week, and this is a classic one to talk about how you can make your work visible, as well as doing sort of a mini skills assessment to see your areas of strength and your areas of growth so you can access this free four part mini assessment. And let's start by making you the star you deserve to be seen. Grab the free assessment here Hello and welcome to the travelling introvert, or the not so travelling introvert. Today I'm going to talk about why you need to regularly assess your skills. I think something that happens as we go through life and we come across a problem, we deal with it, we move on to the next problem or move on to the next thing. And there's a kind of time of year where people are planning for the next year and looking back from the previous year and we tend to look at what we've done, what we've accomplished. And one thing that really needs to happen is to regularly assess what skills you have and what you've learned or what you need to change or what isn't useful anymore.   And we don't do this enough. Anyone who wants to improve and prosper, even your professional or your personal lives, you need to make time to assess your skills. And this can be, I don't know, every quarter is a good way of doing it. I mean, when you're an employer, you know often employers will have a yearly assessment, feedback and so on and so forth to make sure that their employees are learning and growing with the new company. This is because it benefits the company as a whole.   If you improve your team, the company improves and the bottom line improves. And so, whether you're an employee or an employer or just entrepreneur, regularly assessing your skills is really important. And so think about these things. When you are assessing your skills, what can you do to improve your quality and speed? Productivity is a crucial attribute for successful people.   And to do this, you must improve your quality. And by doing so, you'll take less time doing things. After all, getting more done isn't good enough if it's not done well.   Also, when you're regularly assessing your skills, use it as a time to self-reflect. Self-reflection is vital for successful career business life in general. It provides time to look within yourself and see where you can improve and what you've accomplished. So putting this in your calendar on a regular basis and making it a non-negotiable is a way of doing this. Now, when you are thinking about assessing your skills, also think about your strengths and how you can maximize those and all lead to new ones.   Repeating daily life stuff can make things easy to ignore what you are truly good at. So reflecting and testing your skills and reassessing your abilities will allow you to focus even more on areas that you are great at and allowing you to perfect that skill even more. And on the flip side, of course, is also understanding your weaknesses and how to improve them. Just how looking back and reassessing your skills will highlight what your strengths are. It should also highlight what your weaknesses are, your shortcomings and make them far more visible to you.   This is great because if it's done more than once a year. You want it to work towards bettering them or having a plan to mitigate your weakness. If you are selling, if you are bad at certain things, you can outsource it or you can learn to make it better. Often, if you reassess this on a more regular basis, you'll figure out where that gap is. An outsourcing is fine, but the sooner you figure that out, the sooner things can balance out and work out better.   Also, when you're assessing your skills, it allows you to take education and learning into your own hands. It provides you the ability to be more self-aware and acknowledge your achievements as well as your failures. And it also gives you a clearer, more defined path to learn and develop yourself interpersonally and professionally. If you want to grow as a person and have a more successful career or business or work on your life goals, you need to continually make time to evaluate your abilities so that you know where to improve and where you lack. You can go ahead and look for online skill assessments or personality tests.   Ask friends and co-workers to assess you. Look at past reviews, past things that you've said about yourself. These are just a few ways that you can get valuable feedback on your current abilities so that you can enhance your career, advance your business, and accomplish your goals. Reviewing is crucial. Thank you for letting this is janice@thecareerintrovert.com, helping you build your brand and grow your business.   Have a great rest of your day.  

Since I founded Positively Productive Systems in 2016, I've seen my fair share of physical clutter and loved every minute of helping clients clear it and start fresh. But what I've been most fascinated with is helping clients declutter their minds and hearts because inside is where it all starts. This week, episode 118 of the Positively Living Podcast is about 7 ways we sabotage our happiness and productivity!In this episode of the Positively Living Podcast, I'm sharing the importance of noticing the link between our physical space and how it is affected by what is going on inside our minds and I provide actionable steps you can take right now to get to the root of the matter, your mindset. Shifting your mindset is critical for long lasting change. The 7 ways we sabotage our happiness and productivity are:Saying “should” all of the time. Comparing ourselves to others. Assuming what people think. Repeating the same negative stories.Believing that self-care is optional.Spending time with negative people. Seeing failure as a bad thing. What you focus on, you fuel. Where you direct your attention matters and you end up with more of whatever has it. What has your attention?Thank you for listening!

Recent events of hate in Idaho have some worried that Idaho is falling into old patterns of anger and divisiveness.

Jeri Goldstein built an online business coaching musicians who want to book more gigs. After all, success as a musician requires working in the music business. Many aspiring stars are hugely talented with the music side, but not so much the business side. Jeri helps them. Then the phone call came, and Jeri's life changed. It a good thing her business was highly portable Her father survived a massive stroke, so Jeri did what she had to do. She packed up the car and the dog and headed down to Florida to help her family navigate the post stroke world and learn to adapt to her father's aphasia. Jeri chronicled her experience with her dad in her book Stroke Dialogues: Conversations with Dad*. She sent me a copy, and we talked about her experience in this conversation. And she explains what "Dark Moon Shine" is all about. If you don't see the audio player below, visit http://Strokecast.com/MSN/Jeri to listen to the conversation. Click here for a machine-generated transcript Who is Jeri Goldstein? Jeri Goldstein is a career development coach for professional performing artists and entertainment industry professionals. She coaches musicians performing in all genres of music from traditional acoustic to jazz, classical to world music, children's music to blues and rock and hip-hop to rap. Jeri has also worked with authors, actors, storytellers, visual artists, and other small business owners. Her specialty is to help her clients discover their unique niche market and to create strategic business and marketing plans. For twenty years, she was a booking agent and artist manager for touring artists on the acoustic music circuit. She worked with musicians, actors, and dancers. She is a music and book publisher. In addition to Stroke Dialogues*, Jeri has written two other books. Her award-winning book, How To Be Your Own Booking Agent THE Musician's & Performing Artists Guide To Successful Touring*, is used by musicians world-wide and has been a textbook used in music business courses throughout the U.S. and Canada. It reached #1 on Amazon in the Music Business category and has sold over 60,000 copies world-wide. The Tiny Guide to Huge Success* is a collection of 100 blog posts taken from thirteen years of over 650 entries designed to help performing artists build and maintain a successful touring career. Jeri presents in-person seminars and keynote lectures at universities, conferences and for businesses and organizations in the music and entertainment industries. Her online course Booking & Touring Success Strategies & Secrets has been taken by hundreds of professional touring artists. In 2020 she launched her first podcast, Get Great Gigs which featured interviews with artists and other entertainment industry professionals that discussed inspiring career strategies before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Jeri began her internet-based business in 2008. Her use of internet marketing strategies and social media provided the perfect platform for her to work from anywhere. In November 2012, she set up shop in Florida to be with her dad during his recovery from a stroke. After selling her home in Charlottesville, VA, she relocated to Delray Beach, FL permanently in August 2015 and continues to live there today. Homunculus The homunculus is a representation of the brain and various parts of the body. The more you use a part of the body, the more neurons it takes up in the brain. For example, the hands and tongue take up more space in the than the elbow and pinkie toe. The more time and energy you dedicate to something, the more space in your brain is dedicated to that task. For example, a homunculus of my brain would likely show a much larger segment dedicated to speaking than to throwing a baseball. One way I think about how this applies to survivors (and I may be stretching the homunculus analogy) is that a skill from the prestroke days that a survivor was an expert at may come back before a skill one had limited experience with simply because despite the damage there were simply more nerves dedicated to it. In the case of Jeri's dad, we have someone who lived a life of numbers. When he lost his words and names with aphasia, he still had numbers. As you continue to work on a skill post stroke, a larger portion of the brain will be dedicated to it. More nerves, dendrites, and synapses will become involved. This is neuroplasticity at work. Negotiation Jeri talked a little about negotiation in this conversation. It's an important skill. It's also important to recognize that negotiation isn't just about resolving an argument. It's a process of working with others to meet everyone's needs as much as possible. When folks are in a negotiation, it's helpful to articulate and understand priorities and preferences for all participants. And that involves knowing what you care about and why you care about it. Understanding that "why" is the thing that will keep you open to new and even better solutions. Self-Publishing and Know your Audience Jeri self-published her book because she knew her audience. She also knew the process and had done it before when it was a lot harder. The key, though, is she knew the audience. When selling a book in a hyper-niche space, an independent writer or small, specialized publishing house can have a lot of success. I like this approach a lot. Often authors self-publish for control because traditional publishers aren't interested. There are plenty of other reasons, too, as previous guests have described. From a traditional marketing and sales perspective, Jeri started with her audience -- her customers. She knows who will buy her book, and then worked backwards from there, asking, "What is the best way to get this book in their hands?" She concluded that a major publisher would not be as effective with their focus on big retailers. As an entrepreneur who has sales and marketing skills, she knew she could more effectively reach the niche audience of the stroke world. She opted to self-publish. Cluster Brainstorming Cluster brainstorming is a way to identify things that you find important and to drill down on those ideas to get more clarity. It starts with an idea and then you define that idea in greater detail. And then you go into those definitions and try to understand the. For example, maybe a goal is to recover from stroke. What does that mean? My successful recovery may look very different from that of a more athletic individual who lived for sports, hiking, and lifting heavy things. Cluster brainstorming helps you unpack that. You start by writing a word or goal that matters to you. Then you start writing down words associated with that first one. Then you take the most interesting of the words you wrote down and do the same things for those. At the end of the process, you have a whole bunch of thoughts and ideas on the page, and these are the things that matter to you. These can define the "Why" of your recovery. You can see how smaller or more tactical items. It's easier to do an exercise or activity when it's clear how that exercise or activity fits into the broader picture of your life. The brainstorming activity can help you identify your priorities, but it's all just a pretty paper until you put it into action and turn these ideas and concepts in the SMART goals that can drive your recovery. You can learn more about SMART goals in episode 86 on this page. The Tongue Twister When you're positive and patient, When you are persistent in practice, Full recovery is possible and anything is possible. That simple tongue twister is one of the tools Jeri worked out for her dad. He needed practice pronouncing his Ps and this did the trick. It also had the extra benefit of providing a positive perspective on his present predicament. Repeating phrases like this also help you to believe it. It's the repetition that drives neuroplasticity. It's also a good phrase o use to practice your mic technique for a podcast to keep your plosives under control Win of the Week I walked more than 6000 steps in one day during a weekend getaway with my GF. It's quite a bit considering my pace, brace, and cane. You hear a lot about my wins and my guests' wins on the show. Now, I want to hear about yours. I'm starting a new feature called the win of the week, and I want to know what went well for you. Maybe you walked a lot. Or said a complete paragraph out loud. Or got a new job. Or slept a whole night. Or chewed and swallowed regular food without incident. Or booked a new OT appointment. I want to know what's gone well with you, big or small. And I want to share it with the listeners. You can record a brief message telling me who you are, when your stroke was and what you accomplished. You can do this with the voice memo feature on your phone or another recording process and email that recording to Bill@strokecast.com. Or you can do it the simple way. Simply call (321) 5stroke, any time day or night, and leave a voicemail describing your win. I'll choose from the wins and share my favorites in future episodes so we can all celebrate with you. Hack of the Week Jeri cited 3 tips for helping and empowering her dad in his recovery. First, she placed Labels around the house on objects to help her dad recognize and retain the names. This is similar to the approach that Anna Teal took with her husband is making lists of seasonal phrases to stick on the refrigerator. The reminders and repetition can help rebuild those neural pathways. Jeri's dad also liked games and puzzles. Playing Bridge with his friends was a highlight of his day before stroke and relearning it after stroke was a priority. It was also an important way to help him interact with friends beyond his immediate family. Working on puzzles is great practice after stroke. It works on skills around visual processing, pattern recognition, logical and process thinking, and, of course, manual dexterity. Can assembling puzzles solve the missing piece of recovery? The most important element, though, was letting her dad drive his recovery. Identifying his priorities and his concerns and making them the focus of his recovery efforts kept him involved in his recovery. The more interested we are in the activities of therapy and the goals of therapy, the more likely we are to do the activities of therapy. Plus, making sure the survivor has agency in this process matters. Because therapy is not something done to a survivor. It's something done by a survivor. Links Where do we go from here?
