คอลัมน์ “สดแต่เช้า”ปีที่4 (342) จงระวังอย่าให้นิสัยเสีย! “ “อย่าหลงผิดเลย “การคบคนชั่วย่อมทำลายนิสัยที่ดีงาม”” ~‭‭1 โครินธ์‬ ‭15‬:‭33‬ ‭THSV11‬‬ ”“Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.””‭‭ ~1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭33‬ ‭ESV‬‬ จงจำไว้เสมอว่า “เรากลายเป็นอย่างที่เราทำซ้ำแล้วซ้ำเล่า!” “We become what we repeatedly do.” – Sean Covey เราจึงควรจริงจังในการสร้างนิสัยให้ดีตั้งแต่เนิ่นๆ เพื่อไม่ต้องมาแก้ไขในภายหลัง ซึ่งเป็นเรื่องที่ยากกว่ามากนัก เหมือนคำกล่าวที่ว่า “การป้องกันไม่ให้นิสัยเสียเป็นเรื่องที่ง่ายกว่าการทำลายนิสัยที่เสียไปแล้ว!# “It is easier to prevent bad habits than to break them.” – Benjamin Franklin เราจึงควรจริงจังและระวังในการเลือกคบหาคนที่จะมาอยู่ใกล้ชิดสนิทกับเรา ด้วยเช่นกัน! เพราะคนเหล่านั้น อาจจะทำให้เราเสียนิสัยหรือมีนิสัยเสียได้โดยไม่ยาก! ”นิสัย“หมายถึง “การกระทำที่เคยชิน, การกระทำต่างๆ ที่ทำบ่อยๆ จนเกิดความเคยชิน บ่มเพาะจนเป็นนิสัย ซึ่งมีทั้งนิสัยทางกายและทางอารมณ์ จึงไม่แปลกใจเลยว่าทำไมการเปลี่ยนนิสัยถึงเปลี่ยนเรื่องยากหนักหนา จนบางทีเราไม่คิดว่าเราสามารถเปลี่ยนนิสัยได้ด้วยซ้ำ ก็เพราะเราทำมันทุกวัน จนเกิดเป็นลักษณะซ้ำๆ โดยเราไม่ได้รู้สึกผิดแผกไป ...” แล้วเราควรมีนิสัย แบบไหน?แบบ…1.เสียความสัมพันธ์กับพระเจ้า~ขาดประชุมหรือการนมัสการจนเคยชิน หรือพัฒนาสัมพันธภาพที่ดีกับพระเจ้าทุกวัน?2.เสียความสัมพันธ์กับผู้อื่น~โกรธกันดูถูก นินทาว่าร้าย ตัดสินหรือทำให้คนอื่นท้อใจบ่อยๆ หรือพัฒนาสัมพันธภาพที่ดีกับคนอื่นๆ โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งคนในครอบครัวและในโบสถ์?3.เสียชื่อเสียงหรือความน่าเชื่อถึอของตนเอง ~ทำชั่ว ไม่รับผิดชอบ เย่อหยิ่งหรือเห็นแก่ตัว หรือพัฒนาบุคลิกลักษณะและนิสัยที่ดีให้เป็นที่ชื่นชอบทั้งของพระเจ้าและของคนทั้งหลาย? อาจารย์เปาโล กำชับว่า เราต้องทิ้งนิสัยไม่ดีทั้งหลาย อาทิ “แต่บัดนี้ท่านทั้งหลายจงละทิ้งสิ่งเหล่านี้ทั้งหมด คือ ความโกรธ ความฉุนเฉียว การคิดร้าย การใส่ร้าย และคำพูดหยาบโลนที่ออกจากปากของท่าน อย่าพูดโกหกต่อกันและกัน เพราะว่าท่านได้ปลดวิสัยมนุษย์เก่ากับพฤติกรรมของมนุษย์ นั้นแล้ว”‭‭ ~โคโลสี‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭THSV11‬‬ ที่สำคัญยิ่ง คือเราต้องระมัดระวังในการคบคน โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งคนที่จะทำให้เรากลายเป็นคนนิสัยไม่ดี คนแบบไหนล่ะที่เราไม่ควรคบ?1.คนที่ดึงให้เราห่างไกลจากพระเจ้าและพี่น้องในคริสตจักร2.คนที่สร้างอิทธิพลเพื่อให้เราเป็นพวกและนำเราไปในทางที่ไม่ดี3.คนที่ขาดความรับผิดชอบและมักหาความเดือดร้อนมาให้เราอยู่เสมอ4.คนที่พูดจากลับกลอก ปั้นน้ำเป็นตัว โกหกเก่งหรือชอบยุแยง เสี่ยมสอนให้ผู้อื่นแตกคอกัน5.คนขี้อิจฉา ริษยาผู้อื่น และไม่รู้สึกยินดีเวลาเห็นผู้อื่นได้ดี6.คนที่เห็นความผิดพลาดของผู้อื่นเท่าภูเขา แต่ความผิดพลาดของตัวเองกลับมองไม่เห็น7.คนที่มีความคิดและพูดในแง่ลบอยู่ตลอดเวลา 8.คนที่ชอบฉุดดึงผู้อื่นให้ตกต่ำลง โดยใช้คำพูดหรือการกระทำเพื่อให้ผู้อื่นดูเเย่ลง 9.คนประพฤติตนแบบต่อหน้าอีกอย่างลับหลังอีกอย่าง หรือเป็นนกสองหัว10.คนที่เอาตัวเองเป็นศูนย์กลาง ฉุนเฉียวง่าย ด่วนสรุป และชอบใส่ร้ายผู้อื่น พี่น้องที่รัก 1.อย่าทำตัวของเราให้เป็นคนนิสัยไม่ดี และ 2.อย่าปล่อยให้ใครมาทำให้เรากลายเป็นคนนิสัยไม่ดี …จะดีไหมครับ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ธงชัย ประดับชนานุรัตน์8มีนาคม2025 #YoutubeCJCONNECT #thongchaibsc#คริสตจักรแห่งความรัก #churchoflove #ShareTheLoveForward #ChurchOfJoy #คริสตจักรแห่งความสุข #NimitmaiChristianChurch #คริสตจักรนิมิตใหม่ #ฮักกัยประเทศไทย #อัลฟ่า #หนึ่งล้านความดี#SoulFoodPodcastsSpotify.

In this episode, we talk with Tom Baker, co-founder of Mr Black, America's best-selling premium coffee liqueur. Tom shares the serendipitous beginnings of his company, the divine intervention of the "coffee gods" that led him to his co-founder, and how Mr Black carved an unexpected niche in the spirits industry. We track the brand's rise from a small Australian startup to a multi-million dollar company, diving into the challenges Tom faced in the early days, launching a coffee liqueur as craft spirits and coffee culture were both emerging. We also explore how Mr Black differentiated itself from competitors like Kahlua with a product that truly tastes like coffee, and how the brand helped shape the Espresso Martini's renaissance. (The Espresso Martini is now the Top 4 best-selling cocktail in America, just two years after hitting the Top 10 list, per Nielsen data!) You'll hear how Mr Black leveraged crowdfunding to gain early traction, the importance of building strong distributor relationships, and how the brand scaled globally. Tom also shares his insights on managing the operational complexities of growing a business, the role of Diageo's acquisition, and why staying focused on a singular vision helped the brand achieve sustained success.

The topic, or the question for today is, can God's plan for your life be ruined, specifically ruined by our own poor choices, or can it be ruined by the choices of other people by way of impacting our life? I wish that question was cut and dry, but the answer is yes and no. That's the best short answer I can provide, but we're going to use Scripture as our basis as we push out this topic. There are tons of truth that will show you, no, God's plan for your life cannot be ruined, no matter the contributing force. However, near the end of this podcast, I talk about the one thing that can indeed block God's plan for your life, and I don't think you'll be surprised when you hear what it is. I do hope that you'll receive a fresh dose of encouragement and that you feel empowered to take the next step. And here's how this topic came up and why I wanted to share it with you. I had the chance to speak at a Christian women's event, and Psalm 23 was the verse that their gathering was based on. I get excited about Psalm 23 (as many of you know this about me). Memorizing that particular Psalm has been such an incredible weapon for me, not only in my every day, ordinary life, but it's my lifeline when things are complicated and painful. When I proclaim Psalm 23 over my life or the life of my loved ones, it infuses me with hope, encouragement, confidence, and it strengthens my faith muscle. Allow me to tie this in really quick as another resource for Psalm 23. After I had a measure of grief healing, I could look back and see how God worked in my life in ways (at the time) that I did not discern, and I wanted to share how God showed up. And so, I did a stand-alone podcast episode titled Here's How Psalm 23 Showed Me God's Faithfulness. In this episode I gave tangible examples of what it meant for God to be faithful in the midst of my grief. Currently it has over seven thousand six hundred downloads (I'll put the link in the show notes). I add that little bit of info because in this episode we're going to specifically build on Psalm 23:3 as our core scripture. With regard to the question, can God's plan for our life be ruined, the verse reads, "He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake." The purpose of drawing the focus in on that specific verse is that I want to look at God's heart for restoration, as well as look at other examples of how the heart of God is to restore us to his paths of righteousness, who He created us to be for His name's sake. Think about how invested God is in us. We are His name sake. If you're one of my faithful listeners, many of you know my story of unexpectedly losing my husband in early 2018. It was six years ago as of February 21st, 2024. He left our home at 8AM. Everything seemed fine. However, by lunchtime that same day, he had a massive heart attack and passed away. Something my boys and I never saw coming. Never. Out of that pain a portion of my redemption is to encourage believers in the dark valleys of life, so I spend a lot of my time looking at the good God I profess through the lens of pain and suffering. I have the precious privilege of my guests allowing me into some of the most vulnerable moments they've ever known. It is an intimate space to be allowed into because I get a glimpse of how God enters into our pain and how he works in the privacy of someone's personal devastation. When life no longer resembles anything we once knew, I think it's a fair request we make of God to put things back like they used to be. I too have pleaded with God. I had been with my husband for a little over 33 years. I repeatedly asked the Lord to give me back my normal, return things to how they used to be. Give me back my old life. Struggling under the weight of pain and an internal fight to orient myself and to gain my footing, in my mind, it actually seemed possible that if I could just go back to the way things used to be, everything would be OK. Life would be good again. If you've got some life under your belt, life experiences with some hard things, more than likely you've asked God to put things back like they used to be. And I've shared this with you before, this type of pain, loss, suffering is not exclusive to losing a loved one. Anytime we struggle under an immense weight of pain, (no matter what it personally means to have your world flipped upside down), our brain is grasping at anything familiar. And yet, at the same time, panic is there because we know in the back of our mind, or maybe it's in the back of our heart, knowing that this shaking and shifting is actually exploding our life into tiny little pieces. That's why it's so important to grieve when life takes unexpected twists and turns. After a life changing event, it will not return to how things used to be. It simply can't. And we need time for our head and our heart to catch up. When life goes missing, the good news of the gospel isn't exclusive to our salvation. It is the reason that we can know anything good on this side of heaven. There are times when we'll find ourselves in broken, painful consequences because of our own choices. And then there are times when we'll find ourselves in broken, painful consequences because of someone else's choices or simply because life happens, like with my husband. Either way, we're left with the aftermath of what feels like a head on collision. In any of these situations, something that had been previously tethered to our heart, our life, our identity has been disrupted. And when it's broken, it's broken. Acting like it isn't broken only delays the suffering. Whether we find ourselves in the position of needing God to restore us because of our own choices or the choices of others, we have two perfect biblical examples that are proof that we can know and experience God's hope, healing and restoration. The biblical proof that I'm going to share is something you are more than likely very familiar with but I want to look at these historical accounts, potentially/hopefully through the lens of a fresh new reminder. For those of us who have made poor decisions (and I count myself among these precious people), whether we're living with lifelong consequences, maybe unforgiveness is eating at us, or shame and guilt stab us like a knife. Be encouraged by this beautiful example of God's power and authority to repurpose our poor decisions. God's standard, His rules, His precepts, are for our safety. So, when he told Eve (and he told Adam too) eat from any tree in the garden except that one, the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, he did so as a loving father who wanted to protect his children. And as we know, Eve decided to go outside the boundary that God had put in place because she had heard from the serpent that eating the fruit would make her like God so that couldn't be a bad thing, right? Eve loved God. But what Eve didn't bargain for is that while she would indeed know something God knew, Eve did not have the authority and the sovereignty to handle or overcome this new knowledge. The reality of her choice came with consequences, and that's what God was trying to protect her from. He didn't want her to endure the consequences that he knew were attached to her choice. It was going to break his heart as he watched her struggle under the reality of this knowledge with no power against it. I feel sure, because I'm a mama, that what broke his Fatherly heart the most, Eve was now separated from him. And He knew who was coming for her. The enemy and a constant battering on her mind and her heart and her body. Steal, kill, destroy, steal, kill, destroy. Sean Covey said, “We are free to choose our paths, but we can't choose the consequences that come with them." Eve's choice to do things on her own terms resulted in more than a lifelong consequence. We live under a generational curse because of Eve's choices. The language of the culture today gives us so-called encouragement by telling us to handle things on our own. You see all the social media quotes and posts about being independent and strong and how you don't need to rely on anyone. You don't have to ask for help, you can do it yourself, and you're so strong but that my friend, is the world talking. Every single time without exception when I want to handle things in my own understanding and with my own discernment, I will create a coping skill or some sort of self protection method apart from God's plan to heal and redeem. If I don't take the thing straight to God and expose it, ask for his guidance, input and his wisdom, I end up struggling with something God never intended for me to endure. I end up in the negative, struggling with things that are detrimental to my well-being, less than God's best for me. The result of me doing things independent from God is that fear and anxiety show up. My emotions want to lean into depression. I start feeling disconnected, feeling like no one sees me or no one cares. I have a constant feeling of overwhelm. All these things have Satan's fingerprints on them. These types of steal, kill, destroy feelings. So, Eve bites the apple, introduces sin to the world, and then God threw his hands up and proclaimed that his plan was ruined and that he didn't know what he was going to do now, right? No! Thank God, no! Eve's choice, catastrophic as it was, did not overpower God's authority. God always has a plan of restoration. A plan that overwhelms the broken things of this life. God flips the script on the pain and suffering in this life and brings beauty from our ashes, both for our good and his glory. For those who choose the finished work of the cross, the curse that Eve put on us is broken. Because of Christ's shed blood and resurrection, we have direct access to the heart of the Father. His heart for us that desires to save and restore. And that, my sweet friend, is why your poor choices do not have the power to destroy the calling on your life. Can we temporarily derail the original path? Delay it? Cause added obstacles and complications where we show up with additional baggage than before we went off the rails? Yes, we can. But once we submit ourselves to God, when we repent and bring it into the light, His light, we get to watch him transform our situation and return us to His paths of righteousness. In God's plan of redemption things like regret, shame, guilt, unforgiveness, and the like have been accounted for or planned for. God knew it was coming. He's not surprised by our humanity. He was not caught off guard and had to scramble to figure out how to manage this new revelation that we threw at him. Sweet friend, he's made a way for you and I to lift our heads under the weight of our choices and even better, we don't have to wait for heaven. I think our biggest challenge is comprehending the truth of God's heart for restoration and stepping into it. If we knew how true, how strong God's heart is for restoration, we would grab a hold of it in the here and now. We wouldn't delay for a single second. We don't have to pray for God to have a heart of mercy and restoration. We don't have to look for it, work for it, hope for it. That's who he is, with or without our acknowledgement. All we need to do is engage his heart. And how do we do that? Cultivate a life of intimacy with our Father. Discovering who he really is versus who we want him to be, who we think he is or who we think he should be. Get to know his heart and who he says we are and watch your life be transformed. For those of us who by no choice of our own, find our lives flipped upside down, that which was the atoning sacrifice to correct Eve's selfish decision is also perfect proof that despite the horrific tragedies in this life, abandonment, rejection, innocent blood, being misunderstood, lied about, betrayed, all the different ways that one human being can choose to assault another human being, the list is endless. Nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing is impossible for God. His plans are bigger, his power is sovereign, and his authority answers to no one. He has no rival and no equal. And allow me to add this example of God's extensive power and authority. Hell, the lake of eternal fire, is the place God has ordained where people will spend eternity if they choose not to allow Jesus to pay their sin debt. Hell is God's real estate. That's why God's word plainly tells us in Philippians 2:10-11, "Whether in, heaven, on the earth, or under the earth, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord." From the very pit of hell, God will be acknowledged. In either eternity, (heaven or hell), we're on God's turf and we are on His Kingdom territory. And that is why I can guarantee you that God can bring good despite the devastation of this life. Hell answers to God. With God having no rival and no equal, and because all things are under His authority, He ordained the death of His only Son as the acceptable atoning sacrifice that would break the curse of our sin penalty. Yes, Christ's death was planned, but Jesus would not have the luxury of avoiding the human aspect of that suffering. He would suffer in every way that we do as humans. Jesus's life, his horrific death, the burial, the victory of his resurrection, and ascension to the right hand of the Father would not be without deep pain. A soul aching, bone saturating submission that caused him to cry out to the Father to give him relief from the torment, anguish that brought blood out of Jesus's pores while in the garden of Gethsemane. And not just the physical suffering, but the very core of who God is. Our God, the God of the Holy Bible is the God of relationship, and Father and Son would be separated. God would turn away from his son until our sin penalty was paid in full and the curse was broken. And what result does God bring about with his son's horrific death? Colossians 2:15 tells us in the NIV, "And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross." And let's not forget Ephesians 6:12 that tells us the importance of disarming the powers and authorities, Ephesians 6:12 in the NIV tells us, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Christ's death publicly put Satan to shame, both in the physical world as well as being acknowledged in the spiritual realm. If you've had no choice about what happened to you, where does this leave you? What does Christ's death, burial, and resurrection mean regarding what you've lost? Ultimately, Jesus offers us hope, healing and restoration but it will take courage to heal. The dark valley you find yourself in…God knows the way through. He's been there. He put to shame the evil that has been inflicted on you. You do not walk this journey alone. No valley is too dark nor is there one that is too deep for him to bring healing. I do hope it's comforting to know that God fears nothing. Not our anger or our rage, not our ungodly questions, not the evil of this life. There is simply nothing about our existence that God fears because he has the power and authority (the permission and ability) to take the very thing that Satan meant to destroy us with…and not necessarily destroy us, as in our physical death. Satan is content if he can destroy us with our thought life, hold us captive through our emotions, or keep trauma locked in our hearts. It's all the same to him. If it will silence us, make us bitter, isolate us, paralyze us, or separate us from God from his truth in any way, shape, or form, it's a payoff for Satan. God isn't afraid, dismayed, overwhelmed or disconnected because no matter our situation, his solution is redemption for absolutely anything evil that this life can dish out. What we can't do in our own strength, the fact that we have no power or authority to change our circumstances, but God. God repurposes the reality of pain. Not that He immediately takes us out of it, but in His hands, we're guaranteed that our pain is never for no reason. He takes the evil pain inflicted upon you and turns it into purpose. That's a table prepared for you in the presence of your enemies. I feel sure I've shared this with you before but allow me to share once again, something the Lord spoke into my spirit as I processed the death of my husband. I was telling God that I found no comfort in what people were saying to me, that God does not give you more than you can handle. I knew they were trying to be kind, and so I received it with grace, mainly because even I've said that before to people. But now, standing on the receiving side, it's stung every time because I wanted to scream. Oh, yes, he does. I assure you he does. I am undone in every way. I did not choose this, and I don't want to be here. So, I took all of that pain to the Lord. It was probably considered ungodly, and it was raw, but it was honest. And in the midst of my breakdown, the quiet, calm voice of the Holy Spirit downloaded something very precious into my heart, and it changed my perspective. It is something that I will always hold close to my heart, he said Sherrie, I don't allow anything I don't plan to redeem. And that didn't mean that I was going to skip the grieving process or forget my husband. It simply meant that nothing touches his children that he does not have the power to use for our good in his glory. He always has a plan. God always has a plan that overwhelms our limitations, that rewrites the mental, emotional, and spiritual demise that Satan had planned for us. So, my sweet friend, no matter the reason that you're struggling with the evil of this life, my encouragement for you today is rest. Rest your weary heart. Rest your mind and the constant running from one anxiety laden thought and memory to another. Grab a hold of this lifeline Matthew 11:28 "And then Jesus said, come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." Your heart can have complete confidence that God will take care of you to the degree that you allow Him. And here's where the Yes, God's plan for your life can be blocked. Because remember, He will never force himself on us. He doesn't push us into anything. He extends His hand and invites us to allow Him into our pain. He will gently, tenderly work in the places that we expose to him. To walk in our full calling is to engage God's heart on an intimate level. In that intimacy we find healing, meaning, clarity, and our calling. Plenty of people leave this life, never having fulfilled the calling on their life because they did not have the courage to allow God to heal them. And I'm not saying God can't work in your life on your behalf. I'm just saying that if you don't engage him, the benefits of your healing are limited, and you won't perceive what he's doing. In the healing process, you discover things about God that solidifies your value and your worth. If you keep God at arm's length, you'll miss out on the secrets that He has that he only reveals in the darkest, most painful places of life. He responds to our authentic, honest, and transparent pain when we trust Him with it. Whether we're a victim of our own bullying because we won't accept God's forgiveness, nor will we forgive ourselves, or we're a victim to someone else's choices and maybe there's some unforgiveness there that holds us hostage. I want you to remember this. In the fight between good and evil. Forgive, don't forgive. Heal, don't heal. Rest, don't rest. Trust, don't trust. The push and the pull. Do you know what the prize is? Do you know why the fight is so intense? It's your heart. Your heart is the prize. It's the place where the fountain of your devotion, affections, love, commitment, are sheltered in. All that God placed in you when He knit you together, creating you in His image. You get to choose who you give your heart to. Either one. Satan or Jesus. Because both are pursuing you, both have a plan for your life. Let this truth settle deep into your heart. Amid such a savage battle for your heart and I say savage because we know that Satan is cruel, ruthless, and full of vile hatred for the things that bear the image of God, you. But God is savage in his extravagant, pure, selfless, uncompromising, unapologetic love for us. In this every day battle for your heart, Satan sees your heart as a trophy with bragging rights. But God sees your heart as a priceless treasure that he longs to restore, right up until the moment you get to see him face to face. Friend, let's embrace God's restoration. Let's have the courage to heal and fulfill God's plan for our lives.

On today's show we are covering the fourth segment in our mini-series on business planning. On Monday's show we talked about the company mission. We then spoke about the ten year and the three year plan. On yesterday's show we spoke about the one year plan. Today we're talking about the plan for the coming quarter.  This is where the rubber meets the road between the plan and the execution. Underpinning our process is the business planning process from several business books. The Book Traction by Gino Wickman. We use the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), which is a set of practical tools and concepts outlined in Wickman's book to help businesses achieve their vision and goals.  The second book is the Four Disciplines of Execution, written by Steven Covey's son Sean Covey.

Going into 2023, Harris Jones had an impressive work resume. She was the third employee at RehabWallet, a successful real estate startup but she was unsatisfied with how she spent her time after work.  She was a self proclaimed quiet and meek person, nervous to speak at the real estate events she attended for her work. However, she knew she enjoyed the events and wanted to shift from outside viewer to active participant.  Most people set intentions or resolutions in January that fall apart before the month ends, let alone accomplish a major change in the year. Harris joined us on Build A Wealthy Spirit to walk us through how she went through her 2023 transformation. Realizing she enjoyed the events but had a blocker for public speaking, she set forth a plan to become a paid public speaker. Her journey would include removing her adult "baby" teeth, joining Toastmasters, going on stage for improv and in that same year, her first paid speaking experience. There are a few takeaways that Harris shares for anyone who is looking at this new year and thinking they want to finally make *that* big change. Whether it's to get that six pack, adopt a puppy, or go on stage for the first time. Most of us have something we deeply want to do, but don't even know how to push ourselves to reach out full potential. Harris is living proof that taking the first step can open the doors to a new you. Let us know if you have a big goal for 2024!

I explore a very powerful strategy called 4DX, The 4 Disciplines of Execution, that will help you turn your goals from a fancy todo list item, into reality. And this strategy works not just for business goals, but also for personal goals. You may have heard of the phrase "Work ON your business, not IN your business". And I'm sure you understand what that generally means as a concept. But do we REALLY understand what that means when it comes to execution? What are the actual, nitty-gritty details that help you work ON your business and not IN your business? 4DX is the acronym for The 4 Disciplines of Execution, which is a systematic approach to achieving your most important goals. It was developed by Sean Covey, Chris McChesney, and Jim Huling, and it has been successfully used by hundreds of thousands of individuals, teams, and organizations worldwide.

How his SIPPR Canvas enables Mukom's clients to adopt OKRs seamlessly based on clarity around how teams create, deliver, capture, and measure value. Initiating week-by-week forecasts that assess and ultimately activate resources, skills, budget, and tools to reach desired OKR outcomes. The difference between exploiting and exploring and how systems thinking can create an essential bridge between the two. Show Notes [00:00:49] OKR Origin Story: Personal Efficiency. How Mukom went from being an individual network engineer to developing credibility and excellence through efficiencies. [00:03:02] OKR Origin Story Pt II: Team Efficiency. Coming to understand that management success depends on processes that manage other people's outcomes. [00:05:10] OKR Origin Story Pt III: Building Effectiveness. Establishing a framework to move from strategy to execution with the help of an epiphany after reading "The Four Disciplines of Execution," by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, Jim Huling. It was Mukom's bridge to OKRs! [00:07:30] From 4DX to OKRs: In response to teams who felt overworked and underappreciated, Mukom led his team co-create a "No Asshole, No Bullshit" OKR to support a healthier, stonger team. [00:11:31] The Role of Trust: How psychological safety and its impacts can be measured through behavioral indicators. [00:14:40] Elevators of Excellence: Why processes are to teams what habits are to individuals and how they can be leveraged to build trust and improve weaknesses. [00:16:44] About OKRs with a Strategy: Why workplace cultures are integral to sustained, successful outcomes. [00:18:44] Exploit Versus Explore: Balancing the elements of 4DX and OKRs in the context of immediate needs and long-term workplace cultural development. [00:22:50] About Mukom's SIPPR Canvas: Why silos don't have to be a given and can be broken down with basic tools of communication and transparency. [00:26:30] Expanding an Application: How Mukom's SIPPR Canvas adapts the Business Model Canvas to encompass team context, purpose and value propositions. [00:30:24] OKR Advantage: How having a clearly defined SIPPR canvas sets companies up to implement and adopt OKRs more quickly based on clarity around how teams create, deliver, capture, and measure value. [00:32:00] Real-Time Example: Mukom demonstrates his SIPPR canvas by applying inputs and outputs to the Dreams With Deadlines podcast's goals and operations:   Processes and projects. Short-, medium, and long-term benefits. Sources. Customer success management. Results metrics (such as leads, production, efficiency). Measurable, quantifiable OKRs based on data. [00:38:03] Using the SIPPR canvas framework both to exploit current capabilities and explore (and develop prototypes for) future outcomes. [00:39:22] About Mukom's OKR Activation Canvas: How to define narrow objectives (important!) and deploy a quality matrix to measure key results. [00:41:40] Cultivating PET: Why it's critical that managers be judicious and create systems that support Passion, Engagement, Time (and trust) among teams. [00:44:25] Key Indicators: About putting in place week-by-week check-ins to forecast (and ultimately activate) resources, skills, budget and tools to reach desired outcomes. [00:47:15] An Agile Element: How Mukom's framework injects systems thinking, enabling fluid processes that adapt to cultural challenges and predict OKR success. [00:48:44] Freedom Through Accountability: How Mukom rolled out OKRs to capture, measure and deliver value in the context of a huge telecommunications concern. [00:50:48] Strength Out of Failure: Why Mukom is always proud to share his documented failures – the foundation on which he builds demonstrable, repeatable processes, and success! [00:53:13] Going Wide: How Mukom documents clear, quantifiable results to bring leadership along when it comes time to expand OKR mandates across the organization. [00:55:33] Finding the Nuance: Why it's so important to align OKR goals with internal systems and cultures, distinguishing between leadership strategy and team execution.  [00:59:00] OKRs Are Not Strategy:  Strategy defines where to play and how to win. OKRs clarify the recipe and build the culture to get you there. [01:01:47] Quick-Fire Questions for Mukom: What's your Dream With a Deadline: To enable 10,000 frontline managers to achieve excellence in the next five years, using tools like his OKR Deployment Accelerator. What has been your most significant strategy failure to date? Failing to prioritize OKRs, believing they were applicable to everyone, everywhere all the time. Where do you think OKRs are headed? A period of backlash to their popularity and failures in the way they are executed that only gets better with time and education about best practices.

In this weeks episode we discuss helpful tips for improving your recruiting strategy and the difference between a recruiting strategy and a hiring process. What are some things to consider on your recruiting strategy?

This amazing episode of the Women Who Lead podcast celebrates both Fair Housing Month and Diversity Month! Our host, Teresa Palacios Smith sits down for “un cafecito” with Kim Bakey, Liz Goodchild, and Janet Mauldin, three truly impactful leaders. Listen in for advice on your real estate career, and the three most important qualities for leaders to have. Meet the Leaders Kim Bakey - CEO of HomeServices of Iowa & Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices First Realty Liz Goodchild - Team Leader of The Goodchild Team at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Starck Real Estate Janet Mauldin - VP Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties The Most Important Qualities for Leadership Kim: Integrity, authenticity, and the willingness to get your hands dirty and do the heavy lifting. If you're not doing the work alongside your team, you will not build the same level of respect as if they see you really doing the work. Janet: First, communication is key, both in how you reach others, but also in how you respond to feedback. Secondly, a strong ability to analyze data is necessary to make strategic decisions. Thirdly, Janet recommends having a passion for real estate as a business. Liz: Have a “servant's heart.” No strong, well-respected leader gets there to feed their ego – people will see through it. If you are able to set aside your aspirations to help others achieve their goals, you will build trust with your team. Also, you become a role model, so you must step up your game. Advice for Your Career in Real Estate Liz: It's important to accept critique, but also be willing to accept that not everyone is going to like you, and you have to accept that. Kim: Never give up. Having a positive attitude and embracing difficulty will help you achieve things you never thought possible. Janet: Instead of always saying “yes,” be willing to say “maybe” to people. Ask yourself if saying yes will advance you, your business, or your joy.  Leaders' Favorite Books Ken Blanchard books, such as Fish! (on Amazon) Ninja Selling and The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, Jim Huling, Scott Thele, Beverly Walker (on Amazon) Indistractable by Nir Eyal (on Amazon)   Leaders' Favorite Quotes Liz: Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Kim: “Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.” Vivian Greene Janet: “If it is to be, it's up to me.” Teresa: “When you look at your life lived, how will you measure your success? For me, I want it to be how I was able to make a difference in the lives of many.” Jackie Robinson When you help another woman rise, we all shine. And that's how we make an impact.

Welcome to episode #872 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #872. Cynthia Covey Haller is a woman who has lived a life of purpose and passion. The eldest daughter of the famous author and motivational speaker, Stephen Covey (The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, First Things First, Principle-Centered Leadership, etc.), Cynthia has always been deeply interested in personal development and helping others achieve their full potential. In her new book, Live Life in Crescendo, Cynthia completes a work that begun in partnership with her father before he passed away. Written in his voice, she shares lessons they had worked on together. The book is structured around the concept of a crescendo, a musical term that refers to a gradual increase in intensity or volume. Cynthia (and Stephen) uses this metaphor to illustrate the importance of constantly growing and expanding our lives, even in the face of challenges and setbacks (this was Stephen's final message that he wanted to convey). On her own, Cynthia has made significant contributions to the personal development field. Her passion for personal development and her desire to make a positive impact on the world can be seen in her extensive list of accomplishments. She has been involved in numerous community service projects, held leadership positions in women's organizations, and worked as a volunteer in various capacities. Cynthia's own experiences, growing up as the daughter of Stephen Covey, have given her a unique perspective on personal development. She acknowledges the challenges of living up to the expectations of others, and encourages people to identify their own personal values and align their actions with those values, in order to create a life that is truly meaningful. Cynthia also contributed to her brother's, Sean Covey, books, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens and The 6 Most Important Decisions You'll Ever Make. Enjoy the conversation...

The second half of life presents a crucial choice. Will you live in Crescendo - or it's opposite Diminuendo? Cynthia Covey Haller joins us to discuss the new book she co-authored with her father, the late Stephen Covey - Live Life in Crescendo: Your Most Important Work Is Always Ahead of You. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey is an international bestseller, with over 40 million copies sold. It's principles have stood the test of time. Now, Covey's eldest child brings his final work to life with a valuable mindset that can help you make the second half of life full of purpose, meaning and contribution. Cynthia Covey Haller joins us from her home in Salt Lake City, Utah. Bio Cynthia Covey Haller is an author, teacher, speaker, and an active participant in her community. She has contributed to the writing of several books and articles, notably The 3rd  Alternative by Stephen R. Covey, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens and The 6 Most Important Decisions You'll Ever Make, both by Sean Covey. Cynthia has held multiple leadership positions in women's organizations, served as a PTSA president, an organizer for refugee aid and food pantry volunteer, and she is currently working with her husband, Kameron, as a service volunteer helping with employment needs. She graduated from Brigham Young University and lives with her family in Salt Lake City, Utah. _________________________ For More on Cynthia Covey Haller  Live Life in Crescendo: Your Most Important Work Is Always Ahead of You _________________________ Mentioned in This Podcast Episode The 8th Habit _________________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like The Vintage Years – Dr. Francine Toder The Second Curve of Life – Arthur C. Brooks Breaking the Age Code – Dr. Becca Levy How to Live a Values Based Life – Harry Kraemer __________________________ Wise Quotes On the Purpose of Living in Crescendo "My mission is what his mission was for this book: to bring hope to people at any age and stage of life that they, despite past failures and successes, still have important things to accomplish and great contributions to make in life. And so we're hoping to give hope and inspiration to people that you still have great things ahead of you. And despite what setbacks and challenges you've gone through, keep at it and recreate yourself. Do what you need to do to become the person you want to be." On Choices in the Second Half of Life "And so the challenge in this book is to adopt a Crescendo Mentality, meaning that despite what you've done in the past, what are you going to do next? Are you going to live in Crescendo? Are you going to  keep contributing? Are you going to keep doing things in other areas? Even if you don't hold a 9 to 5 job, what are you going to contribute? How do you keep living in Crescendo as opposed to living in Diminuendo, which means you basically are shutting down and getting ready to not give anymore - and what a state that is. So, one of the things that you need to do is find purpose while you age and while you live." On Contributing "This was his personal mission statement: Live Life in Crescendo. And he adopted that because people were asking him - and second guessing -  why he was still working and still speaking. But he would say that there is no greater time than right now. [Look at] what people have in the second half of life. Just think about it. Here are some of the advantages. The truth is you have more time, more wisdom, more experience, probably more money, more resources, more networking, and more connections to offer than you ever have in your entire life. And so what are you going to lend that to? Someone who would retire and do very little when they've been running a company or they've been contributing, they've been responding to needs, and then they stop after that. What a waste of great talent and opportunity to bless others. My father always liked to quote,
