It's often said that wisdom may create wealth, but wealth rarely creates wisdom.What's more valuable, wisdom or wealth? Before you answer, consider that wealth is fleeting, but wisdom is never lost. John Cortines joins us today to discuss why wisdom over wealth is always the right choice.John Cortines is the Director of Grantmaking at The Maclellan Foundation and previously served as the Chief Operations Officer at Generous Giving. He is the co-author of God and Money: How We Discovered True Riches at Harvard Business School and True Riches: What Jesus Really Said About Money and Your Heart.A Study in Ecclesiastes: Wisdom Over WealthFor the last year, John has been working on an in-depth study for FaithFi titled "Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money." The study is designed to help believers align their financial decisions with biblical principles.At the heart of the study is a profound truth: while wisdom and wealth are both valuable, only wisdom can preserve life.A Tale of Three Siblings: The Power of WisdomTo illustrate Ecclesiastes's message, John shares a real-life story that highlights the stark contrast between wisdom and wealth:Three siblings each inherited $1 million at age 18—a life-changing sum. Yet, their paths diverged dramatically:The first sibling followed a path similar to the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32), squandering their wealth and ending up in financial ruin. The second sibling made some wise decisions but ultimately spent beyond their means, leaving them with little to show for the inheritance. The third sibling sought wisdom, meeting with godly mentors and hiring a Christian financial advisor. They learned about generosity, investing, and stewardship. Today, they glorify God with their finances and have built a stable foundation for the future.This story powerfully illustrates that wisdom can generate wealth, but wealth rarely generates wisdom.Why Prioritizing Wisdom MattersEcclesiastes sheds light on this principle in Ecclesiastes 7:11-12:"Wisdom, like an inheritance, is a good thing and benefits those who see the sun. Wisdom is a shelter as money is a shelter, but the advantage of knowledge is this: wisdom preserves those who have it."John shares three lessons from this passage that we can take from this:Wealth is useful, but it is temporary.Wisdom is lasting, offering protection, guidance, and life.Without wisdom, wealth can be destructive.While Scripture never condemns wealth, it warns us to prioritize wisdom above financial gain.Thanks to compound interest and investments, wealth tends to grow exponentially throughout life. However, wisdom doesn't grow automatically—it requires intentional effort.If wealth outpaces wisdom, it creates danger. But when wisdom leads, it preserves our life and financial well-being.This is especially critical during sudden wealth events, such as receiving an inheritance, a bonus, or selling a business. Without wisdom, wealth can disappear quickly.So, if wisdom is more valuable than wealth, how do we pursue it?Wisdom isn't just a set of principles—it's a person. 1 Corinthians 1:24 refers to Jesus as:"Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God."True wisdom begins with knowing Christ. It's about seeking Him through prayer, studying His Word, and surrounding yourself with godly counsel.Wisdom Before Wealth: A Message for ParentsFor those preparing to transfer wealth to the next generation, we must prioritize passing down wisdom first.The great wealth transfer is happening all around us, but money without wisdom can be destructive. Parents should talk about finances, generosity, and stewardship long before an inheritance is passed down.Here's how to transfer wisdom before wealth:Start financial conversations early, even with young children.Encourage responsible financial habits.Model biblical stewardship in your own life.Consider gradual giving instead of a lump sum inheritance.The worst approach is to write a will, wait until you pass away, and hope your kids figure it out. Open the conversation today.The Larger Message of Ecclesiastes: Jesus is Our Ultimate WisdomThroughout the book of Ecclesiastes, there are two major themes:The Shortness of Life—Ecclesiastes mentions death in 11 out of its 12 chapters. This isn't to bring fear but to remind us to live with urgency and purpose. Aligning Finances with Faith—Money is a tool, but it must be managed in light of God's eternal kingdom.Life is short. Let's honor God with our time, talents, and treasure. Wisdom is ultimately found in Jesus Christ. When we align our hearts with Him, our finances, decisions, and entire lives are transformed. Let's pursue wisdom over wealth, knowing that true riches are found in Christ.As you consider your finances, ask yourself:Am I pursuing wisdom as much as I pursue wealth?Am I making financial decisions based on biblical principles?Am I preparing my children and loved ones to handle money wisely?Money is temporary. Wisdom is eternal. Choose wisely.FaithFi's Newest Study: Wisdom Over WealthIf you'd like to dive deeper into FaithFi's new study, Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money is available for pre-order now at FaithFi.com/Shop.

Our guest today is Evelyn Gamble.  Evelyn is a dedicated healthcare worker and passionate heart disease advocate. With a deep commitment to improving health outcomes, Evelyn uses her personal and professional experiences to raise awareness about heart health, particularly for young adults. As a strong voice for change, she aims to inspire others to take proactive steps in managing their heart health and to advocate for better care and resources for those affected by heart disease.     Definition: A heart arrhythmia, also known as a cardiac arrhythmia, is an abnormal rhythm of the heart. It occurs when the electrical impulses that control the heart's contractions do not function properly.    Causes:    Heart arrhythmias can be caused by a wide range of factors, including:    Heart disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, heart failure) Electrolyte imbalances (e.g., low potassium or magnesium) Certain medications (e.g., stimulants, caffeine) Thyroid disorders Damage to the Vagus Nerve Stress Genetics    Types:    There are many different types of heart arrhythmias, which can be classified based on the rate and rhythm of the heart:    Tachycardia: A rapid heart rate (over 100 beats per minute)    Bradycardia: A slow heart rate (under 60 beats per minute)    Atrial fibrillation: A quivering or irregular rhythm of the upper chambers of the heart (atria)    Ventricular fibrillation: A life-threatening rhythm where the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles) contract irregularly and chaotically    Premature beats: Extra heartbeats that occur early in the rhythm    Symptoms:    Some people with heart arrhythmias may not experience any symptoms. Others may have symptoms such as:    Palpitations (feeling like the heart is racing or fluttering), Chest pain or discomfort, Dizziness or lightheadedness, Fainting, and Shortness of breath.    Diagnosis and Treatment:    To diagnose a heart arrhythmia, your doctor will likely perform a physical exam, ask about your medical history, and take an electrocardiogram (ECG). Treatment options depend on the type and severity of the arrhythmia and may include:    Medications (e.g., beta-blockers, antiarrhythmics) Lifestyle changes (e.g., exercise, stress management) Surgery (e.g., ablation procedure) Implantable devices (e.g., pacemakers, defibrillators)    Outlook: The outlook for people with heart arrhythmias varies depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition.

One book of the Bible reminds us that life is short and we should make the most of every moment.If you guessed Ecclesiastes, you're right. This book emphasizes that our time here is fleeting, but what lies beyond is eternal. In this post, we'll explore this profound truth and introduce a new FaithFi study on the book of Ecclesiastes—Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money.The Shortness of LifeImagine standing on the summit of Mount Everest, over 29,000 feet above sea level. At that moment, you are higher than every other person on the planet. But as breathtaking as the view may be, you can't stay there long.At 26,000 feet, climbers enter the “death zone,” where oxygen is too thin to sustain human life. Even the most well-trained mountaineers must rely on oxygen tanks just to survive the final push to the peak. And when they reach the top, they have just five minutes—300 precious seconds—before they must begin their descent or risk never making it back.How do you think a climber should spend those five minutes? Complaining about an aching ankle? Wishing they hadn't endured the brutal climb? Or should they take in the view, praise God for the beauty of creation, and appreciate the rare opportunity they've been given?Five Minutes On The SummitEcclesiastes teaches us that life is like having five minutes on the summit.We're here for a short time. Many have come before us, and many will come after. Some moments in life are filled with sunshine and calm, while others bring fierce storms. But regardless of our circumstances, we have one brief chance to live and no do-overs.The book of Ecclesiastes repeatedly urges us to embrace this reality. Solomon, the author, reminds us that all earthly pursuits—wealth, pleasure, status—are ultimately fleeting. But rather than making us despair, this truth should inspire us to live with gratitude and purpose.Facing the Reality of Death to Find Joy in LifeEcclesiastes does not shy away from the topic of death. In fact, it is mentioned in 11 out of its 12 chapters. Solomon writes:"Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, ‘I have no pleasure in them'… before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is shattered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern, and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity.” (Ecclesiastes 12:1, 6-8)Why does Solomon want us to think about death? Not to depress us—but to help us truly live. When we remember that our time is short, we learn to treasure each moment. If I know I have to leave the summit soon, I'll savor every second. If I know death is coming, I'll be thankful to be alive.The closing chapters of Ecclesiastes paint a vivid picture of aging and decline. Our eyesight dims, our strength fades, and our bodies slow down. But instead of fearing this reality, we're encouraged to embrace it—to use the time we have wisely and to find joy in the life God has given us.Live With Eternity In MindOur new FaithFi study, Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money, explores how these lessons apply to financial decisions. Solomon warns us that wealth, like life itself, is temporary. Money cannot ultimately satisfy, and hoarding riches without purpose is meaningless.Instead, Ecclesiastes teaches us to steward our finances with eternity in mind. That means:Trusting God over material wealthUsing money to bless othersEnjoying the good gifts God provides without making them our ultimate pursuitAs Moses wrote in Psalm 90:12: “So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.”You are standing on the summit of life. You have five minutes.How will you spend them?Will you focus on fleeting troubles, or will you fix your eyes on the One who holds eternity in His hands?Ecclesiastes calls us to live with purpose—to love God, love others, and make the most of every moment. When the expedition leader, God, taps us on the shoulder and says, “It's time to go,” may we be found faithful.We've only begun to explore the depth of this powerful new study, Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money, coming next month. Once it's available, you can find it at FaithFi.com/Shop.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 73 and self-employed.

In this week's episode of Parsha, Parts, and Polyvagal - Connecting Torah Insights to Your Inner World and Nervous System, we delve into a powerful insight from Parshas Va'eira. We explore the pasuk: “But they did not listen to Moshe, because of their shortness of breath and hard labor” (Shemos 6:9). Together, we unpack the layers of meaning behind this pasuk through the lens of Rashi and the Maharal, uncovering timeless lessons about how stress and overwhelm affect our ability to truly listen, connect, and find clarity. We discuss how life's challenges—and the anticipation of them—can create a “shortness of breath,” both physically and emotionally. These moments can leave us feeling stuck, unable to breathe deeply or access our inner calm. But there's hope: by calming our minds and bodies, we can reclaim the deep breath that helps us navigate life's challenges with greater ease. In this episode, you'll hear: The connection between our perceptions of stress and how our bodies respond. How our nervous system reacts when overwhelmed, whether through fight-or-flight or shutdown. A guided practice to help you gently reconnect with your breath and body. This exercise is especially for those moments when life feels too heavy or you can't seem to find a way to slow down. Take a moment for yourself today. Let this episode remind you that even in the midst of life's challenges, there is always a path back to calm and clarity.

As is now Modern Meditations tradition we ended 2024 with reading Seneca's “On The Shortness of Life” and sat down for a chat about how we did with this year that is not coming back. We both saw meaningful ways that Stoicism had major impacts in our lives for the better, whether that be through breakups, travel, making major career moves, graduating college or deaths in the family. And at the end we have the internationally acclaimed awards ceremony for the best episodes of the year called, “The Aurelis.“ 

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On Anger, book 3 It focuses specifically on his advice that, if we want to better deal with our emotional response of anger, place it into perspective by considering our own mortality as human beings.

Diving into the works and wisdom of one of the world's great philosophers, Seneca-----The duty of a man is to be useful to his fellow-men; if possible, to be useful to many of them; failing this, to be useful to a few; failing this, to be useful to his neighbours, and, failing them, to himself: for when he helps others, he advances the general interests of mankind. - Seneca-----3:30 - The purpose of studying philosophy "[Philosophy]  moulds and constructs the soul; it orders our life, guides our conduct, shows us what we should do and what we should leave undone."6:50 - The usage of time It is a small part of life we really live. Indeed, all the rest is not life, but merely of time. People are frugal in guarding their personal property; but as soon as it comes to squandering time they are most wasteful of the one thing in which it is right to be stingy.11:25- Self-made suffering 20:55- Find a catoSo choose yourself a Cato…Choose someone whose way of life as well as words…have won your approval. Be always pointing him out to yourself either as your guardian or as your model. There is a need, in my view, for someone as a standard against which our characters can measure themselves. 25:10 - On happinessWe have reached the heights if we know what it is that we find joy in and we have not placed our happiness in the control of the externals…Above all, my dear Lucilius, make this your business: learn how to feel joy.32:50 - On angerNo plague has cost the human race more dear: you will see slaughterings and poisonings, accusations and counter-accusations, sacking of cities, ruin of whole peoples, the persons of princes sold into slavery by auction, torches applied to roofs, and fires not merely confined within city-walls but making whole tracts of country glow with hostile flame.36:40 -Lessons/takeaways-----You can check out my book, website, and apparel below: WebsiteBook: Chasing Greatness: Timeless Stories on the Pursuit of Excellence  ApparelInstagram-----If you want to read more of Seneca's works, you can check out some books belowLetter from a StoicOn the Shortness of Life

An AI-ECG Algorithm for Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction   Guest: Jae Oh, M.D.  Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.    Diastolic function assessment is crucial in diagnosing, managing, and predicting outcomes in various cardiac conditions. It provides insight into heart health, particularly in diagnosing heart failure. Shortness of breath, a common patient complaint, often indicates elevated diastolic filling pressure if linked to a cardiac condition. Echocardiography is the primary method for assessing diastolic function, but it is operator-dependent and not always available. In contrast, ECGs are standardized and widely accessible. Although subtle changes in ECGs are not easily detectable by the human eye, artificial intelligence can identify specific conditions reflected in the ECG. By training an AI model with labeled ECGs based on diastolic function determined through echocardiography, researchers achieved high accuracy in detecting diastolic dysfunction. AI-enhanced ECGs can significantly impact the identification of both asymptomatic and symptomatic cardiac conditions, potentially streamlining diagnostic strategies and reducing costs. Future developments may enable patients to monitor their heart health using simple wearable devices, enhancing the management of heart failure and other conditions.   Topics Discussed: Your special clinical academic interest is echocardiography. Why are you interested in ECG AI in diastolic function? What is diastolic function and why is it important to assess diastolic function in clinical practice? Why did you decide to create AI-ECG for diastolic function assessment? What did you find and how do you envision AI ECG for diastolic function be used in clinical practice?

What if I told you that some of the most dangerous signs of heart disease are so subtle, you might never even suspect they're putting your life at risk? These stealthy symptoms can easily be mistaken for everyday health issues, leading to a false sense of security.

“It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it. Life is long enough, and a sufficiently generous amount has been given to us for the highest achievements if it were all well invested.” – Seneca   In This Episode, We Get Stoic About:   In his classic essay On the Shortness of Life, Seneca explores the nature of time, the brevity of life, and the importance of living a purposeful and meaningful existence. His central thesis is that life is not actually short, but rather, squandered through frivolous pursuits, distractions, and preoccupations. On the podcast today we talk about making the most out of the time we have.    Resources + Links:   Connect with Kristofor | LinkTree Connect with Kristofor on Instagram | @team_healey Subscribe to The Stoic Responder on Substack | https://thestoicresponder.substack.com Subscribe to The Stoic Responder on YouTube | The Stoic Responder Buy your copy of In Valor: 365 Stoic Meditations for First Responders, here!

“Of all the eight different pulmonary toxicities you and I have talked about over these two different podcasts, they're all very different etiologies and treatments. So, we went everywhere from infection and good stewardship with antibiotics to pulmonary GVHD to diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. And I think that's what's the hardest part for us as nurses. It's not just one thing that's causing it, and there's multiple different ways to treat these things,” Beth Sandy, MSN, CRNP, thoracic medical oncology nurse practitioner at the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about pulmonary toxicities in cancer treatment.

Highlights From This Episode “[Intensity-modulated radiation therapy] is a type of radiation that can really take into account certain movements. And this is particularly important with the lungs, because we can't necessarily have patients hold their breath for a long period of time, so the chest rises and falls and the heart beats while you're trying to do radiation to the lungs. So with IMRT, they can simulate that, so that the beam is going to follow that specific movement in that patient. That's really helpful because then, hopefully, we're going to keep that radiation dose mostly on cancer tissue and not on healthy tissue. And thus, that should reduce the amount of radiation that's to the healthy tissue and hopefully reduce pneumonitis.” TS 3:44 “Proton beam radiation is something that we've described in the past as radiation that will typically have an entrance dose but not an exit dose, so minimizing toxicity by hopefully around 50%. … If you're doing proton beam therapy, that radiation is designed to only have an entrance dose from either the back or the front or the side, whichever way they're going, but then hopefully stop on a dime at that tumor so that they're only really getting the entrance dose of that radiation. … So in turn, especially if you're doing that to the lungs, that should minimize dose of radiation to healthy lung tissue.” TS 5:03 “If they're having a fever, low blood count, thick ugly mucus, this often, typically can be infection as well. And then get a chest x-ray because, a lot of times I've been saying for a lot of these things, we need a CT scan to see this. Actually, infection is probably best noted on a chest x-ray because this is something that will consolidate.” TS 18:58 “[Tumors] may be directly invading a vessel. They may directly be invading the bronchus where there's a lot of capillaries or there's a lot of blood vessels that can break and then cause them to cough up blood. You can have tumors or prior treatment that then cause a bronchial fistula that then can cause bleeding. Patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung are much more likely to have hemoptysis and pulmonary hemorrhage than patients with adenocarcinoma, though it definitely can happen with adenocarcinoma as well.” TS 22:00 “One of the best treatments for tumor-direct hemorrhage is radiation. This is where radiation can be very helpful for these patients. It's one of the first things that we do. We're going to go in with radiation, shrink that tumor really fast to get it away from those vessels, so patients stop bleeding.” TS 27:17

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. You need to become financially-free so that you have… time to be present and live in the “now”.    You are here today and gone tomorrow. There's not much time to leave your dent in the universe. All that you ever have is now - and that's how it will always be. Today, on Episode 500 of Get Rich Education.   Welcome in… to Get Rich Education. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold.   At times, people tell me something like: “Look at what you're doing. You live an extraordinary life.”    Now, I might reply to that person with something like - “Thanks. I appreciate it. I like to get out and see the world.”   But do you know what's really going on inside my head when someone tells me that I live an extraordinary life?    I'm really thinking, “Well, of course, I do. Don't you? You design your life: So why would you choose anything… else or anything… less… than an extraordinary life?”    Esp. in this world of abundance that we all live in. That's why you have zero reason to live any life that's LESS than extraordinary - if that's what you want.”   Investing for income now is a tool for freedom.   When you're no longer trading your time chiefly for dollars, that's when you can stop living a disembodied existence - when you're living such that your mind and your body are in two different places.    Begin to own your time and truly be yourself.   You need time.   And you don't have much time. That's why, in my experience, it's better to err on the side of being too early over being too late.    Are you truly living… or are you only existing in space and time? I think that deep down… you know. Ask yourself. You already know the answer.   Remember, Episode 1 of this very show is called: “Your Abundance Mindset.”   But if you're thinking in LIMITING ways, here's the good news - the really good news for you.   You don't have to believe everything that you think.    The good news is that… you were born rich. You were born with an abundance of choices. Society stifled that.    You don't have to believe… everything that you think.    Since there's never a "perfect time" to build financial freedom, your conception that it's too early is often just your fear.    As long as you've got a few touchpoints, once you dive in, you'll figure it out.   Old people tend to regret the things they didn't do, or didn't do earlier—not the things they did.   The best reason for becoming financially-free is so that you can buy time and finally start to be yourself.   If you don't want to do it for yourself, do it for someone you love… because there's someone in this world that needs you to be... you.   Since all that you'll ever have is “now”, you need residual income to buy time so that you can spend more of your life present in the “now”.   Now, if you were to ask yourself, what made the most successful leaders in the world successful, was it the capital they had, their technology, the people they knew, or their mindset? Which one of those things was it?   It's their mindset.   See, because if you took away the capital, technology, or friendships from Jeff Bezos or Steve Jobs or Mahatma Ghandi or MLK - whoever you want to use as your leader.   If you took away those elements but they retained their mindset, they would most likely go on to regain everything they've got.   That's why you must deeply explore and consider, what mindset do you have, where did you get your mindset, and what mindset do you need for the decades ahead?   Did you get it from… your parents? If so, I'm sorry to say, that's usually a red flag… and that's where most of us get our mindset from.    But most people never learn differently.   Realize this - and this is a little hard to say. But the truth is hard.    Your parents don't want your success. Isn't that ironic? Your very own parents don't want your success; they want your safety.    They want you to have a stable, safe, say, accounting job, in a cubicle that only gives you two weeks of vacation a year - because it's KNOWN and average.   A ship in harbor is safe; but that's not why ships are built. Some safety is OK. But you weren't built to live a life CENTERED on safety either.   That's not even approaching living your dreams or doing anything ‘extraordinary'.   Most people aren't living their dreams. They're living their fears.   When your parents had you at birth - in the hospital delivery room - they'd be thrilled to know that you'd grow up to live your DREAMS. But on the day-to-day, they've got you living your fears.    Once your parents got “newborn you” home from the hospital, all the way up to adulthood, an overly fragile safety mindset often becomes pervasive… and it stifles dreams.   If you don't take a chance, you don't have a chance. Take the risk or lose the chance.   Don't live below your means; grow your means. It's in your genes… though that probably wasn't part of the mindset of your formative years.   I love my parents. They cultivated the right environment for me. But you'll often find an overabundance of safety from yours - especially from your mother.   Eckhart Tolle said: “Most humans are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now. That's Tolle.   Alright. But once you've made time, what's next? It's how you arrange your priorities.    We think it's about time management - and it STARTS THERE.    True achievers in life make large blocks of uninterrupted time - notifications off, phone one room away.   But more specifically, it's about your priority management.   For me, I know that I'm going to be living in this same body 50 years from today - just like you will inside yours, so I make FITNESS a priority in life - often at the expense of investing & business opportunity.    That's my take - it doesn't have to be your take. That's an example of priority management.   First, you've got to play a game worth winning. It's been said that one question to establish focus is, ask yourself: Are you hunting antelope or field mice? This… idea is simple (but supremely powerful): A lion is capable of hunting field mice, but the prize wouldn't be sufficient reward for the energy required to do so.  Instead, the lion must focus on the antelope, which does require considerable energy to hunt, but provide a sufficient reward. In whatever you are pursuing, are you hunting antelope or field mice? Are you focusing on the big, weighty, important tasks that will provide sufficient reward for your energy?  Or are you burning calories chasing the tiny wins that won't move the needle? Ask yourself this question from time and time and use your answer to reset as necessary. Always hunt antelope! When it comes to priority management…   … you've got to make time for yourself and create better “nows” for yourself beyond the mandatory loads that you're already encumbered with.    Because you'll still have meal planning, grocery shopping, doctor's appointments, housekeeping, scheduling, meeting, driving…   There's not much leftover discretionary time left over to make you the you that you need to be - whether you're trying to be the best equestrian rider that you can be because you connect with horses…   …you're trying to be the greatest PARENT ever, cleaning up a beloved local creek, coaching your kid's sports team… or maybe you'll move heaven & earth to write that book that you just KNOW that you have inside of you. Get it out there!   But instead, people rationalize away their low quality of life.   If you're working for the weekend, examine your M-F. You're not living in the “now”. If you call Wednesday “hump day”, you're not living in the now.    The good guys are BRAVE enough to risk investment, commitment, marriage, being vulnerable to family members, and all those things that make the non-doers and bad guys envious. Be brave enough to study and then risk boldly.   This is sad. You've probably heard of stats like this before - a Pew survey from last year found that 46% of US workers who receive paid time off from their employer take less time than they're offered. Almost half!   People rationalize away their low quality of life - actually defending living a small, scared, too-safe life.   If you need a push to fire up Google Flights, consider that you will be happier because of it.  That's what the science says: researchers from the Netherlands found that the biggest boost in happiness around vacations came from the simple act of planning one. Then you get to anticipate it. How important is it to build a residual income rather than work more hours? Is working more and working late the answer?   Understand… that twenty years from now, the only people who'll remember if you worked late are your kids.   Instead, become a time billionaire. Let's lean into this and look at what some others say.   Graham Duncan proposed the concept of the Time Billionaire. If you've got a billion seconds worth of wealth, that's 31 years. He said that:   "A million seconds is 11 days. A billion seconds is 31 YEARS… I feel like in our culture, we're almost obsessed, as a culture, with money.  And we deify dollar billionaires in a way...And I was thinking of time billionaires that when I see, sometimes, 20-year-olds—the thought I had was they probably have two billion seconds left.  But they aren't relating to themselves as time billionaires."  That's what Graham Duncan said. The central point here… is that TIME is our most precious asset. No one ever posts pictures of napping on the sofa on social media. But if you're a time billionaire - you might consider that an ostentatious display of time wealth. Ha! When you're young, you are RICH with time. At age 20, you probably have about two billion seconds left (assuming you live to 80). By 50, just one billion seconds remain. But as Graham Duncan pointed out, we don't relate to ourselves as the "Time Billionaires" that we really are. Most of us fail to realize the value of this asset until it is… gone. In his passage called On the Shortness of Life, the stoic philosopher, Seneca, says, "We are not given a short life but we make it short, and we are not ill-supplied but wasteful of it." That's Seneca. To me, being a “Time Billionaire” isn't necessarily about having the actual time, but about the awareness of the precious nature of the time you do have.  It's about embracing the shortness of life and finding joy in ordinary daily moments of beauty. Let me introduce the “Surfer Mentality”. Yeah, the surfer mentality. When a surfer gets up on a wave, they enjoy the present moment, even though they know with certainty that the wave will eventually end.  They fully enjoy THIS wave, with the wisdom and awareness that there are always more waves coming. There are five ways that you can apply this “Surfer Mentality” and have this awareness in your life: (1) enjoy your next wave and embrace the present moment, (2) be strategic about your positioning in between waves, (3) PASS on more waves rather than jumping at the first one that comes your way, (4) always get in the water and stop sitting on the shore, and (5) roll with the punches that life deals you. That's the “Surfer Mentality” Do not become an ostrich. An ostrich will bury its head in the sand to avoid danger. A lot of humans behave the same way when they encounter new information that challenges their existing beliefs or views.    An ostrich cares more about being right than finding the truth. Do not become an ostrich, embrace new information that forces you to change your mind. That, right there, is growth.   A great, actionable way for you to GROW with the time you've created and the priorities that you've outlined is to Do something new that scares you. This is EXACTLY what you did as a kid but that you forgot how to do.    For example, when you were age 11, you swam in water over your head for the first time. It made you rise up, grow, and gain confidence. I can't tell you what grows inside you psychologically, but…   We're operating 200,000 year-old mental software. That's when the modern human brain came into existence.    Our primordial brains are evolutionarily wired to see problems - to detect threats like lions & tigers - and our body still responds to those threats like they are lions.   And today, we don't have to look very hard to find those problems. Just turn on the news or scroll social media and there they are.   And in this environment, it can be easy to let ourselves be yanked around by our circumstances.   When it comes to OTHERS - peers, family, and friends along your life journey…   You have to be strict with yourself but tolerant of others.    That's what the stoic Marcus Aurelius wrote about in his meditations. He has these exacting high standards.    Most people don't have the self-discipline that you do… and it's called SELF-discipline for a reason.    It's not a thing that you get to project onto other people. You don't get to go around insisting that other people follow YOUR standards and your code.    You have to be encouraging and forgiving of other people because they don't have the gift that you have. They don't own the drive that you have. There's even a saying in ancient Rome.    “We can't all be Catos.” If you remember from history, Cato was the influential leader that championed Roman virtues during THEIR empire.   We have to be tolerant, and accepting and encouraging of other people. If this realization is still frustrating to you…   Another way that you can think of this, is that others never signed up to the code and standards that you have.”    Money is a tool for freedom. The best reason to accumulate wealth is to buy yourself freedom from anything you don't want to do, and the freedom to do the things you do want to do. Money is not an end in itself. If you sit on it and never use it, you've wasted your life.    Money CAN absolutely buy happiness. But only so long as you spend it on upgrading and expanding the things that make you happy or in buying time, instead of using it to play status games or on fleeting experiences.    Increase the difficulty. If you're listening to this, then your life is (probably) already on easy mode compared to the global and historical standard. You need to strategically introduce some challenges to keep yourself motivated. Don't ruin yourself, but don't let yourself get too complacent, either.    Investing involves risk. You're going to lose sometimes. The good news is that you don't have to make money back in the same PLACE where you lost it.    If something in your business or life is losing money, you don't have to plug the hole right there at that spot. Often it's easier to make the money back elsewhere.    It's never the right time. Any time you catch yourself saying “oh it'll be a better time later,” you're probably just scared. Or unclear on what to do. There is never a right time for the big things in life: having kids, changing jobs, breaking up, getting engaged, or buying the property.    Err on the side of too early over too late. Related to that point, since there's never a “perfect time,” it's almost always better to do things “too early.” Your conception that it's too early is just your fear, and once you dive in you'll figure it out. Old people tend to regret the things they didn't do, or didn't do earlier. Not the things they did. Bad things happen fast, and good things happen slowly. This is one reason why bad news seems more newsworthy - but it's not actually more important. It's hard-wired within you that money is a scarce resource.  Don't be afraid to commit. You've got to let go of fear about tomorrow and just get on with it.    Uncertainty is a PERPETUAL condition - it's existed in your entire past, and will in your entire future. That's why you feel uncertainty in the present too. Uncertainty only disappears when you die.   We all want to know the future. But the truth is, it's easier to make decisions within your certainty of NOW rather than postpone & speculate about your perpetually uncertain future.   “Life is meant to be lived, not postponed.” Don't get so caught up trying to make a living that you forget to live a life. That's not a life well-lived.   Regretting past decisions is an utter waste of energy. Does the past exist now separate from your own thoughts? Nope… it doesn't even exist.    Coming up - you'll hear ANOTHER voice with a more COSMIC perspective about life and the power of “now” - it includes some sound effects to anticipate.  Then I'll come back in for today's conclusion. I'm Keith Weinhold. It's Episode 500 of Get Rich Education.    LISTEN: Neil Degrasse Tyson: Life and Death - A Cosmic Perspective   That's Neil DeGrasse Tyson on the significance of life, death, and the power of “now”.   Horace Mann said, "Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity."   Life feels ordinary. But in fact, it's incredible that you overcame tremendous odds to have your… one… precious life.   In order to be born, you needed: 2 parents 4 grandparents 8 great-grandparents 16 second great-grandparents You needed 32 third great-grandparents 64 fourth great-grandparents 128 fifth great-grandparents 256 sixth great-grandparents To be born, you needed 512 seventh great-grandparents 1,024 eighth great-grandparents and 2,048 ninth great-grandparents For you to be born today from 12 previous generations, you needed a total sum of 4,094 ancestors over the last 400 years. Think about what they overcame… to produce you – How many struggles did they have? How many battles? How many difficulties? How much sadness did THEY have?  How much happiness? How many love stories created you? How many expressions of hope for the future? – did your ancestors have to undergo for you to exist in this present moment… The past is history, the future is a mystery, and this moment is a gift. That's why they call this gift, “the present”.   Spend your time where time disappears. Your work should feel like play… your passions should feel like flow… with people that make hours feel like minutes.    The more present you are, the quicker the present goes. That's the paradox.    A full life goes fast. But in the end, time that flies… is time well spent. And a life that flies by… is a life well spent.    At least here on Earth, all you've got is one life and one shot.   You shouldn't fear death. You should fear a life where you could have accomplished more that fulfills your potential and aligns with your soul.   You're here today and gone tomorrow. You've got NOW to go leave your dent in the universe.   There's no time to wait. You now have less time remaining in your life than when you started listening to me today.   All that you ever have is now - always. Don't Quit Your Daydream!

This episode talks about Vell's relationship with his grandmother and how it has shaped how he shows up for women.   The Good Read for this episode is On the Shortness of Life by Seneca On the Shortness of Life" is a philosophical essay by Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca. In this timeless work, Seneca explores the theme of the brevity of life and the need to make the most of our time. He criticizes people for squandering their time on trivial pursuits and emphasizes the importance of focusing on meaningful and virtuous activities. Seneca advocates for a life of purpose, mindfulness, and the pursuit of wisdom. The essay encourages readers to reflect on their priorities, make conscious choices, and live a life in alignment with their values. Ultimately, Seneca's work is a profound reminder to appreciate life's fleeting nature and make the most of our time. What's Popping in Vell's World consists of seasonal depression, the inaugural NBA in-season tournament, and Puff Daddy/P. Diddy/ Love's sexual assault allegations, more.

Let's talk about zinc. Zinc is involved in 300 different enzymes and over 1000 factors related to DNA. Zinc is involved in your sleep cycles, cognitive function, and making neurotransmitters. Having low zinc increases your risk of diabetes. Zinc also makes up an important group of antioxidants involved with your brain, heart, and muscles. It even helps reduce oxidative stress involved with the mitochondria. Instead of masking a symptom related to zinc deficiency or any other health issue, it's crucial to get to the deeper problem to help prevent further concerns. Learning how to support a healthy body and avoid health issues or recognize the early stages of one is much more simple than trying to fight a health problem. Side effects of advanced zinc deficiency can include: • Loss of appetite • Necrosis • Ulcers • Hypogonadism • Low testosterone • Thymus atrophy • High cortisol • Muscle loss The organ that is most affected by zinc deficiency is the pancreas. The most common early sign of zinc deficiency is foul-smelling stool that floats. Other early signs of zinc deficiency include: • Shortness of breath upon exertion • Cramping • Diarrhea • Abdominal pain • Bloating Top causes of zinc deficiency: • Lack of zinc in the diet • Malabsorption • Inflammation in the gut • Phytates or phytic acid (grains) • Consuming sugar • Diabetes • Stress • Drinking alcohol • Infection Foods rich in zinc: 1. Oysters 2. Crab 3. Other shellfish 4. Meats 5. Fish 6. Nuts

Tom Brady has always been relentless about trying to get better. Trying to get his passes out quicker. Trying to get his spirals a little tighter. Trying to optimize his diet. Trying to recover from games faster.While almost none of us are like Tom Brady on the practice field, we're all like him in the sense that we spend a lot of time and energy focusing on improving ourselves at work, at our chosen craft or profession. But when it comes to personal improvement?---And in today's reading and meditation from The Daily Stoic, Ryan examines why Seneca stated that "no one is crushed by fortune unless they are first deceived by her," and the folly of trusting in fortune. You can read more of Seneca's views in On the Shortness of Life: Life Is Long If You Know How to Use It.
