Sign up for Practi, a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.Here are the top 5 takeaways from this episode:* AI is “Augmented Intelligence” and a Catalyst for Transformation: AI should be viewed as an augmenting tool to enhance legal work, not a “magic box” for perfect results. The systemic and responsible deployment of AI/legal tech is essential for a business transformation that shifts from a reactive to a proactive service delivery model, ultimately freeing up time from mundane tasks.* Focus on Strategy First, Tools Second (Stage One vs. Stage Two): The mistake many make is focusing on the sheer number of AI tools (Stage Two) before defining a strategy (Stage One). The first step should be to map current operations, identify pain points, define a target operating model, and understand what to do with the surplus capacity created by efficiency. Deploying tech without a defined structure is “piecemeal.”* The Human Element and Risk Allocation Remain Critical: Despite advancements in AI, people still seek lawyers for human interaction, to assign and share accountability, and to feel a sense of confidence and comfort in resolving legal problems. The human lawyer acts as a “guardian” and “shield,” and human judgment is necessary for interpreting legal dilemmas, especially since a 1% uncertainty will always exist, regardless of machine precision.* The Need for Purpose-Built Technology: Using a single, ultimate generalist AI tool for everything in law is like “trying to saw a two by four with a power drill.” Lawyers must select technology that is purpose-built for specific use cases (e.g., contracts, litigation, research) to achieve true efficiency and higher-quality work.* A Shift in Business Model is Essential for AI Success: The full potential of AI cannot be realized if the fundamental incentive structure remains the billable hour. If all incentives are to “bill more time,” AI's 4% time saving is seen as lost revenue. However, by adopting models like subscriptions or value-based billing, AI helps with problem avoidance and speed to deal, making the more efficient model more profitable.__________________________Want your question to be answered on a future show?

Have you ever worked relentlessly toward a goal (a vision or a dream you once felt absolutely certain about) and suddenly it stops flowing? You're still trying. You're still showing up. But no matter how hard you push, it's not progressing the way it used to? You’re wondering: Does this mean I am ungrateful for wanting more? Am I self-sabotaging? Have I lost my magic touch? Is my manifestation ability broken? Or worse… am I about to ruin my life by walking away from something I fought so hard to build? I am seeing this collective theme everywhere right now… in my private practice, in conversations with friends, and inside my own life. What if this isn't failure at all? What if you are so greatly loved that you are being redirected to a version of your life or purpose that is better than you imagined? In this episode, I'm breaking down the shift from what I call Stage One manifestation (ego-based) to Stage Two manifestation (soul-aligned) through the lens of Numerology and your Life Path number. Did you know that very Life Path (1 through 9, including master numbers 11, 22, and 33) has its own evolutionary arc? There is what you were taught to chase… and there is what your soul is actually here to embody. If you feel like nothing is working the way it used to, if you can't manifest the way you once could, if you're trying harder but things keep collapsing, or if you secretly know something in your life is over… this episode will help you understand why. You didn't lose your magic. You’re mining for an elevated version of it. And your Life Path number may be revealing exactly where it went.

Command Central on ChasingWaypoints.comhttps://www.chasingwaypoints.com/2026-dakar-rally.htmlMo's Dakar: https://amzn.to/49lvzgeStage One of the Dakar Rally 2026 is complete — and it's already clear that this year's rally is evolving into multiple races within the same event.In this episode of Chasing Waypoints, we break down the Stage 1 results across motorcycles, vehicles, and SSVs, highlight key performances and penalties, and explain why Dakar 2026 is shaping up differently than years past.One of the biggest early storylines comes from Ross Branch, whose penalty had a direct impact on his Stage One standing and immediately changed the competitive picture. These moments matter early — not because they decide the rally, but because they force strategy changes sooner than expected.We also look at the vehicle categories, where X-raid Mini set the early benchmark, and explain how vehicle dynamics, terrain interaction, and reliability are already influencing outcomes.In the SSV category, the margins are razor thin. Stage One showed just how competitive this class has become, with close times and very little room for mistakes — a trend that's likely to continue as the rally wears on.Looking ahead, Stage Two presents a long, demanding challenge where:Fuel management becomes criticalFatigue begins to accumulateStrategy matters more than outright speedWe also discuss how the interaction between bikes and vehicles adds complexity on course — affecting visibility, lines, and decision-making for everyone involved.This episode isn't about predictions — because it's still far too early for that. Dakar 2026 is just getting started, and the only certainty is that adaptability will matter more than ever.
Stage Two of the Dakar Rally 2026 delivered exactly what Dakar does best: tight margins, strategic battles, and constant pressure across every category.In this episode, we break down the Stage 2 results across motorcycles, cars, stock class, and SSVs, highlighting just how close the competition has become early in the rally.On two wheels, Daniel Sanders emerged as the provisional stage winner with a time of 4:13:37, but the bigger story is the depth of the field — the top 10 riders separated by less than 10 minutes, where even small navigation mistakes carry heavy consequences.In the car category, Seth Quintero delivered a standout performance, backed by the navigation experience of Andrew Short, showing once again how critical teamwork and roadbook precision are at Dakar.The stock class continues to impress, with Sara Price securing a stage win and proving that production-based vehicles face a very different — and often more punishing — set of challenges compared to T1+ machinery.Meanwhile, the SSV category remains one of the most competitive fields in the rally, with tight time gaps and relentless pace that leave no room for error.Stage Two reinforces a core Dakar truth: this rally isn't won on outright speed alone — it's won through navigation, endurance, and strategy, and the margins are already razor thin.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Israel does not know the location of four of the remaining 13 bodies of hostages held in Gaza, even as Egypt is reportedly bringing 12 additional heavy vehicles into the enclave this morning to clear roads and assist in efforts to locate the deceased. Berman weighs in on the stability of the ceasefire as the US increases its rhetoric, pushing Hamas to release the bodies to begin the transition to phase two of the 20-point Trump peace plan. A transnational terror network run by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force is behind a string of recent attacks on Jewish sites in Western countries, the Mossad intelligence agency said on Sunday. We learn about senior IRGC-Quds Force commander Sardar Ammar, who heads a network of some 11,000 operatives carrying out covert operations and strikes on Jewish sites. Catherine Connolly, a veteran lawmaker on the far left of the Irish political spectrum, was elected president by a landslide margin on Saturday. She has drawn criticism for her views on the Hamas terror group, which she said in September was “part of the fabric of the Palestinian people,” as well as claims that Israel is carrying out a genocide in Gaza. Does Berman see an even rockier relationship with Israel on the horizon? Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

When I was a beginning harp student, the technical method I was learning - the Salzedo method - was something I took very seriously. From my very first harp lessons, I learned the important points of technique, as Salzedo taught it. I wasn't studying with Salzedo, of course, but my teacher, Marilyn Costello, was a student of his, and his method was what she taught her students. For a long time, I played the harp in innocent ignorance of the fact that there were other harp methods. In fact, it was a revelation to me in those early years when I discovered that most harpists in the world didn't use the Salzedo method. Truly, all the harpists I knew in the Philadelphia area were Salzedo method players, and it never occurred to me that this wasn't true across the wider harp-isphere. Once that realization hit, I went into what I'll call Stage Two of my education about harp methods. That was the stage where I believed that everyone who didn't play Salzedo method wasn't playing the right way and they would never be good harpists. Ah, the foolishness of youth! It didn't take me long to realize how ridiculous that was; after all, there were many harp legends I admired who weren't Salzedo players. Time for another outlook adjustment. My outlook has undergone many such adjustments in the ensuing years, mostly due to the evolution of my teaching philosophy. The basic underpinning for my thoughts on harp methods can be summed up like this: the method itself doesn't matter. What matters more is that you follow one. Without a method, your technique and your technique practice is merely a collection of skills. The method is the organizational plan that brings together skills, sound, ergonomics, and more, and unifies them with a cohesive set of why's and how's. A method doesn't leave you guessing about how to do something; it gives you the system to find solutions. In this episode, I will talk about the key points of technique that every method addresses and I'll explore a few of the differences in approach between some common harp methods and why each approach works. It's not about one way being right and the other wrong; it's about having a plan you can follow. I'm hoping that by expanding your ideas about technique, I can encourage you to consider how following a harp method will make everything about your technique finally make sense to you.

In 2021, one day away from his fortieth birthday, Ty Cedars felt pain in one of his testicles and noticed it was enlarged. He contacted his physician, asking to be seen. The following day, en route to a birthday celebration, Ty received a call from his doctor, requesting that Ty come right away. The Alexandria, Louisiana-based schoolteacher soon underwent an ultrasound, then was directed to a urologist, who told Ty that he had testicular cancer. He took the news calmly and was told by the doctor that this was a very treatable cancer, but that he would have to go on a chemotherapy regimen called BEP. That is a cocktail consisting of cisplatin, beleomycin and etopicide. Ty said the worst part of the regimen was severe nausea. He vomited acid into his throat, which took away his voice. Ty also said he was extremely weak, and that resting wasn't easy. He could only watch television for ten to twenty minutes at a time. Even though he had a stack of books ready to read, reading was out of the question because it was too hard to focus on the small print for much more than a paragraph. As a singer in the local chorale, Ty found tranquility in choral music, which he accessed on YouTube. The chemotherapy did its job and Ty was told there was no evidence of disease. He was able to return to the classroom, can go to the gym, and his health is very close to what it was prior to his diagnosis. However, he occasionally suffers from neuropathy, and because of the damage to his throat from the chemo regimen, his singing voice has dropped from a baritone to a bass. Other than that, Ty Cedars is thrilled with the life he is leading. By way of advice, he says if you notice something with your health that seems abnormal, don't take chances and see your doctor. Because he was proactive, his cancer was detected at an early stage. Additional Resources: Support Group: The Testicular Cancer Society: https://www.testicularcancersociety.org

Lloyds Tour of Britain day two is in the books and it was another big, dominant sprint win for Olav Kooij.

After the punishing 94.7 miles of stage two, Payson and Sarah sit down with Cécile Lejeune, who is currently duking it out for first place in the overall despite having raced fewer than 10 gravel races in her entire career. They recap the day, which included multiple crashes, plenty of interpersonal drama, and a few good samaritans. They also talk about Sarah's issue with Cécile's snack choices, the multiple jobs Cécile holds down when she's not racing, and whether running (her first sport) features as much social intrigue as gravel.

STAGE TWO: Wealth, Health And Happiness Challenge - Screw It Lets Do it! Welcome to Join Up Dots! In today's episode, we're diving into the mindset of successful risk-taking and why embracing the “Screw It, Let's Do It” attitude can change everything. Inspired by entrepreneurs like Richard Branson and Peter Jones, we explore how calculated risks—not reckless gambles—lead to growth, opportunity, and success. Too often, fear holds people back, but by assessing both the upside and downside, you can make smarter decisions and move forward with confidence. We break down real-life examples of those who took bold yet measured risks, showing that failure isn't the end—it's just a stepping stone. Whether you're starting a business, changing careers, or making a big life move, this episode will help you shift your perspective and take action.

STAGE TWO: Wealth, Health And Happiness Challenge - Controlling That Activity In Your Brain In this episode of Join Up Dots, we dive into the power of decluttering your mind to reduce mental noise and overwhelm. Worries may feel real, but they are entirely self-created—no one is forcing you to worry. Instead of letting them take over, break them down into small, actionable steps. If there's nothing you can do, let them go and see what happens. Distractions, endless to-do lists, and information overload make it harder to focus on what truly matters. By setting mental boundaries, simplifying your environment, and prioritizing rest, you create the space needed for clarity and peace. A decluttered mind leads to a more focused, intentional life.

THE Leadership Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Is change good or bad? When I was promoted or received a big bonus, I liked the change from my previous situation. When the big boss changed at the very top, the person who hired me got fired the negative ramifications ultimately cascaded down the line. Eventually I had to look for another job and I didn't like that change much. Often organisations go through major internal changes and the middle level leaders are expected to rally the troops behind the change. How do you do that if you don't agree with the change or don't like the change yourself? If you buck the system and refuse to follow the changes, then you are automatically identifying yourself as someone who has to leave the organisation and the machine will crush you. Change is such a tricky area for everyone, but it is so common in business. Markets change, clients change, supply chains change, currency rates change – the list is long. You would think that with all of these “normal” changes in business, we would all be excellent in adjusting to change. However, that is not true, is it? The status quo is so attractive to most of us because it is known and safe. We have been doing the same thing for quite a while and we are good at it. We are doing skilled work in the current formation and suddenly we are being asked to change and are being pushed out of our Comfort Zone. Japan, in particular loves continuity and no change, because all the risk has been shaken out of the system and what we are left with is the lowest risk alternative. As leaders we have to make a decision. If we fundamentally disagree with the new approach then we should find another place to work, where we can be happy and in agreement with the direction. The chances of us doing our best work there dramatically improve, compared to if we stay and conduct an underground personal resistance to the changes. Ultimately, we will be outed by an ambitious rival or subordinate and probably fired. If we are not willing to move companies, then we have to be willing to go with the new direction. Here is the issue – a half-hearted compliance isn't going to work well. Our team members will feel the lack of commitment and enthusiasm to the cause. They in turn, will not rally around us as the leader and charge into the fire together. How can we make this change work within our small cog in the machine? The big bosses set the direction back at headquarters, but they can never get their hands dirty with the daily minutiae at our section level. That application piece is within our control. We may be buffeted by the winds of macro change, but the micro where we deliver the change is within our grasp. We have almost total control over how we do it. What we are feeling about the changes is no doubt being felt by the team members as well. Turning up one Monday morning as some mealy mouthed, apparatchik mouthpiece of the machine isn't going to go down well. Cynicism is already rampart in modern society and this will push some people over the edge, as we try to order them about what they need to do. All we can expect is resistance if we take this road. How can we approach this to get everyone behind us and the changes? Rather than being definitive about how to make the needed changes, we need to have the “change” discussion with the team. In Stage One we need people to be able to air their concerns and fears and be taken seriously. Stage Two is where we move on to how we as a team can implement the change in our world. Getting from Stage One to Stage Two is no easy feat, because many will remain unconvinced and unmoved. They will want to keep going with the old way of doing things. For the “never changers”, we need to have private one-on-one discussions and have them make a decision about stay or go. If it is “stay”, then they need to be part of the team decision-making process and contribute to practical solutions to make this work in a way we can all live with the changes. Just telling them to “suck it up and get back to work” is always a bad idea. It communicates you are not important. We are saying, “I have three stripes on my sleeve and so you have to do what I say, because I am pulling rank on you”. They may in fact stay, but they will join the underground guerrilla movement against the changes. We will wind up fighting each other internally when we need to form a united front against our competitors in the market. We need converts not resisters. So as the leader we need to get the discussion out in the open and get team ownership of the way forward. Maybe we all have to hold our noses against the stench of the changes, but we will hold them together and find a way through.

Zig Ziglar Classic Lesson When I was young, stupid, and wondering when I would understand life, I often turned to my friend, Larry, for a road map. He always seemed to have what I needed - until the day he passed the torch. He knew I needed more. That's when he introduced me to Zig Ziglar's Stages of Competence: 1) Stage One is where we begin. We are “Unconscious Incompetent.” We don't know what we don't know. Yup. 2) Stage Two is called “Conscious Incompetent.” I spent a lot of time there. I used to say, “I have no idea what I'm doing - but at least I admit it.” 3) Stage Three is “Unconscious Competent.” I see that in my work. People who have no idea how good they are. 4) Stage Four is “Conscious Competent.” That was my goal. I wanted to know what I was doing - and KNOW it! Most people continue to another level some call “Conscious competence of unconscious competence.” The ability to recognize and develop Unconscious Competence in others.

In this episode, we delve into Stage Three of the Five Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough. If you're unsure which stage you're in, by the end of this episode, you'll have a clear understanding. We cover: The feelings, personas, and experiences typical of Stage Three. Why Stage Three is the most common stage where people get stuck. The consequences of staying in Stage Three and how to move forward. Key Points Understanding Stage Three Common Feelings and Experiences: Stage Three is characterized by small self-benefits like being right, blaming others, and getting sympathy without having to rebuild trust. Negative Thought Patterns: The mind starts believing destructive thoughts, leading to deeper entrenchment in Stage Three. Energy Attraction: Like energy attracts like energy, resulting in circumstances and relationships that confirm the negative state. Personas in Stage Three Alex: Struggles with unanswered questions and the fear of confronting raw emotions, leading to a loop of indecision. Jordan: Uses distractions like TV, food, and alcohol to avoid the pain of betrayal. Taylor: Experiences resignation, believing life will never get better and settling into a colorless routine. Morgan: Feels profound exhaustion and lethargy, unable to muster the energy for significant change. Symptoms and Consequences Post Betrayal Syndrome: Symptoms appear in Stage Two and persist into Stage Three, where they are often medicated and suppressed rather than healed. Therapy and Support Groups: Without true transformation, therapy and support groups can become places where individuals stay stuck by repeatedly rehashing their stories. Numbing, Avoiding, Distracting: Common tactics to avoid dealing with raw emotions, leading to long-term habits that reinforce the Stage Three state. Moving Beyond Stage Three Recognizing the Trap: Understand that Stage Three is a trap, likened to quicksand, making it one of the hardest stages to leave. Letting Go: To move to Stage Four, one must let go of the benefits and familiarities of Stage Three. Transformation Begins in Stage Four: Real healing and transformation start in Stage Four, where new beginnings and true growth occur. Practical Steps and Resources The PBT Institute: Offers daily live classes, programs, masterclasses, and an incredibly supportive community to help you move through the Stages. Books: "Trust Again" and "From Hardened to Healed" provide deeper insights and practical advice for those stuck in Stage Three.

Sara Mednick visits Google to discuss her book, "Take a Nap! Change Your Life." Imagine a product that increases alertness, boosts creativity, reduces stress, improves perception, stamina, motor skills, and accuracy, helps you make better decisions, keeps you looking younger, aids in weight loss, reduces the risk of heart attack, elevates your mood, and strengthens memory. Now imagine that this product is nontoxic, has no dangerous side effects, and, best of all, is absolutely free. This miracle drug is, in fact, nothing more than the nap: the right nap at the right time. Sara Mednik's book Take a Nap! details a scientifically-based breakthrough program that shows how we can fight the fatigue epidemic through a custom-designed nap. The book explains the five stages of the sleep cycle, particularly Stage Two, or Slow Wave Sleep, and REM, and the benefits each one provides; how to assess your tiredness and set up a personal sleep profile; and how to neutralize the voice in your head that tells you napping is a sign of laziness. Using the unique Nap Wheel on the cover and interior graphs and charts, it shows us exactly when our optimal napping time is, and exactly how long we should try to sleep—even how it's possible to design a nap to inspire creativity one day, and the next day design one to help us with our memory. There are tips on how to create the right nap environment, a 16-step technique for falling asleep, a six-week napping workbook, and more. Originally published in November of 2007.

In this week's episode, we dive into the beginnings of adolescence. As we know, girls have often surged ahead in their maturity, physically and emotionally. Which, in this stage, means not-so-great news. But, the sooner we see girls move into their teenage angsty-ness, the sooner they move out of it. For girls, we'll call these years the narcissistic years…because, IYKYK. For boys, we'll call him the Individual. Listen along as we dive into who he and she are in their middle school years. And our hope is that this conversation gives you hope as you buckle up for what we believe are some of the toughest years in a child's life…and a parent's, too...particularly for girls. Boy parents, yours is coming next!
