Podcasts about staying the course

What does choosing joy really mean when you’re living through pain, pressure, or exhaustion? In this deeply personal solo episode, Choosing Joy host Deborah Joy Winans Williams sits down—not as an actress or celebrity, but as herself—to answer your questions, share her heart, and reflect on what joy looks like when it’s uncomfortable, spiritual, and hard-won. Deborah opens up about motherhood, mental health, faith, grief, self-worth, and how she learned (and is still learning) to choose joy daily—not just on stage, but in real life. From the lessons of her Winans family legacy to her girls' trip epiphany with Merle Dandridge to the quiet prayers that sustain her, this episode is a soulful, grounding invitation to go deeper. Whether you’re a woman of faith, an artist in progress, a mother in motion, or just someone trying to pour from a not-so-full cup—Deborah’s raw honesty and wisdom remind us that joy isn’t a mood... it’s a decision.

Last week, we talked about when changing course is the smartest move. This week, we're flipping the script: what if the wisest thing you can do is stick with your original decision? Sometimes staying the course feels boring, scary, or uncomfortable — which makes it easy to second guess yourself. But discomfort isn't always a signal that you've made the wrong choice. In this episode, I'll walk you through the signs that sticking with your decision is actually the smartest move. Here's where we go: Why high-achievers often equate progress with change (and how that trips us up) The “messy middle” — what it is and how to recognize it Signs your urge to quit is really coming from comparison, boredom, or catastrophizing How to support yourself through doubt without re-opening the whole decision Decisions don't have to drain your energy. With the right tools, you can know when to pivot and when to press on.

How often do you see someone make progress in their life and allow the progress they make to create comfort that ultimately prevents them from continuing with what they set out to do?In this THROWBACK episode, I share why we should never allow our progress to limit our process.

‘When things are gloomy and scary, that's perhaps when you go and do your digging; that's your opportunity to find outsized returns' – John Gilchrist, CIO at PSG Asset Management.

Sir Isaac Newton was a legendary physicist and mathematician. But even the man known for developing the theory of gravity failed to time the market. It is said that after cashing in his shares of Britain's South Sea Company, Newton bought back into the stock right before it crashed. Avoiding the most common mistakes that harm portfolio returns is essential to success in today's markets, where volatility is testing even the most seasoned investors. While there's no single recipe for success, accomplished long-term investors tend to remain disciplined, shut out the noise from a constant whirlwind of headlines, and avoid emotionally charged decisions. This episode of The Outthinking Investor brings lessons from Wall Street and the evolution of financial markets to help investors look beyond uncertainty and identify long-term opportunities. The discussion covers economic resilience and its portfolio implications; growth in ETFs; how alternatives can be well-suited for long-term capital; tax-loss harvesting through direct indexing; steering portfolios through unexpected crises; and more. Our guests are: Barry Ritholtz, Chief Investment Officer of Ritholtz Wealth Management and author of “How Not to Invest: The Ideas, Numbers, and Behaviors that Destroy Wealth—And How to Avoid Them” Scott Bok, former chairman and CEO of investment banking firm Greenhill & Company and author of “Surviving Wall Street: A Tale of Triumph, Tragedy, and Timing” Jim Devaney, PGIM's Head of US Distribution for the retail market Do you have any comments, suggestions, or topics you would like us to cover?

This triad of exhortations hangs together tightly with Christian hope at its core. The grand arch of the Biblical story is one that moves us to look to the future with tremendous hope not wishfully but with utter confidence because of what God in Christ has done and what God will yet bring to its appointed end. This hope gives us joy, motivates endurance in the inevitable tribulations we face, and moves us to lean into our dependence on God through prayer.

It can be people like you and me who drift. Often it isn't due to something catastrophic. It's easy to get lost. We can get sidetracked by sin. We can get sidetracked by life. Even the good things in life. How do we avoid drifting and avoid being sidetracked? Keep the main thing the main thing! Be sure you follow the right person.

Love One Another week 2 1st John 2:28 - 3:10)

We're coming back to our study in the gospel of Matthew, reading chapter 4:1-11 this Sunday. In stepping into the human experience, Jesus faces temptation to leave God's intended path for him. In fact, the account of his temptation in the desert is a sweeping overview of the nature of our temptations. Do you ever feel bad for being tempted by things you feel you should have conquered by now? Remember this: Jesus was tempted too. What does that tell us about how we should understand our own temptations? There's an old saying, attributed to Martin Luther, that states we're not responsible for the birds that fly overhead, only the one's we allow to nest in our hair.The first temptation that is presented to Jesus is found in v1-4. It wasn't wrong or evil for Jesus to be hungry. He certainly was given power to do miraculous things with bread – he'll supernaturally provide enough bread to feed thousands of people out in the desert later on in this story. Why was this suggestion to make bread from stones a temptation to sin? Jesus quotes Deut 8:1-3 – read the whole context. Did Israel go hungry in the wilderness? Who provided for them? How does that help us understand what “living by God's word” means?Next Jesus is tempted to jump from the highest point in the temple (v5-7). Again, this is similar to something Jesus will do later on – he won't walk on air, but he'll walk on water, defying the laws of physics. What is the temptation to sin in this suggestion of stepping out in faith that God will rescue him? What clue do we get from Jesus' response in v7?The final temptation recorded in this account is in v8-11. Once again we have the contrast of human kingdoms with God's kingdom. Worship me, the devil says, and you will be King of kings. Interesting, since that is ultimately what Jesus is called – and the last book of the Bible says in Revelation 11:15 that the kingdoms of this world will become the kingdoms of our Lord. Why is this a sin if it's the fulfillment of his destiny anyway? What does Jesus have to go through in order to be exalted? What sort of King of kings and Lord of lords does it make him when he was willing to die for us?In each of these temptations there is a forecast of something Jesus will ultimately do. The difference is in how it gets fulfilled, and by whom. Where do we look for our fulfillment as human beings? A lot of things in this world promise fulfillment and wholeness – but Who holds the true source of wholeness? What has your experience been in looking for fulfillment in the things we can grasp for in this broken world? How can that instruct us?I think this will be a challenging, yet hopeful study! Hope you can join us on Sunday!Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

With over 35 years in the sport, Tim has quietly built a life around consistent training, minimal injuries, and a mindset that favours long-term health over short-term glory. Together we explore: The early days of UK triathlon clubs (and some very questionable kit choices!) Why Tim chose not to pursue Ironman long-term The underestimated value of sprint and standard-distance racing How to stay healthy, consistent, and enthusiastic after 60 The training and lifestyle tweaks that support performance as we age We also touch on smart nutrition, strength training, sleep, and that all-important lesson of not training through niggles.

Details In this episode of The 90th Percentile: An Unconventional Leadership Podcast, we sit down with Bard Parnell, Senior Manager of Learning and Development at Mesa Labs, to talk about what really drives effective leadership—especially in a time of nonstop disruption. While many organizations are quick to chase the latest leadership trends, Bard shares why … Continued The post Episode 163: Staying the Course—Why Core Leadership Skills Still Matter first appeared on ZENGER FOLKMAN.

Leadership isn't about stubbornly sticking to a plan—it's knowing when to pivot. In this lively episode of No More Leadership BS, the panel dismantles the myth that strong leaders never change direction. Through colorful analogies and real-world examples, they explore the crucial distinction between being persistent and just plain stubborn. The Myth of Unwavering Leadership: The dangerous idea that leaders must "stay the course" no matter what stems from military and corporate storytelling that equates doubt with weakness. But as our panel highlights, this approach is more likely to sink your ship than save it! True leadership means having the wisdom to recognize when a change in direction is necessary. Destination vs. Journey: The panel brilliantly distinguishes between being firm about your destination while remaining flexible about how you get there. Just like a pilot who adjusts for unexpected obstacles while still landing at the intended airport, leaders must keep their eyes on the ultimate goal while being willing to try different routes. Reading the Warning Signs: When should leaders pivot? Our experts reveal the critical signals to watch for—from team unrest and "water cooler talk" to political, financial, and industry shifts. A leader who ignores these warnings does so at their peril, as one panelist learned through personal experience with team dissolution. The Bottom Line: Leadership isn't about saving face—it's about serving your mission and your people. Staying the course just to appear strong isn't leadership; it's "fear with a really sexy suit on." Tune in for: *How budget planning demonstrates the balance between firm goals and flexible methods *Why Blockbuster and Kodak are cautionary tales of stubborn leadership *The surprising ways your team watches and interprets your every move Practical advice for creating a culture that values nimbleness and adaptation Remember, the last person defending a bad idea is rarely remembered as a great leader!

With tariff headlines changing by the day, it's tempting to react—but that could be a costly mistake. We'll break down why chasing policy noise is a fool's game, why our stance at Henssler remains grounded in facts not forecasts, and how our Henssler Ten Year Rule is designed to help you ride out this kind of manufactured volatility. Despite ongoing uncertainty and speculation about a potential slowdown, the hard economic data remains resilient. We break down the latest economic reports, including the Consumer Price Index, the Federal Reserve's March meeting minutes, the Producer Price Index, and recent consumer sentiment readings.After the break, K.C. brings together his two favorite topics: college sports and finance. Nico Iamaleava was essentially forced off the University of Tennessee's football team over a dispute tied to an NIL agreement. He potentially lost millions before ever seeing a dime—which begs the question: what kind of financial advice was he getting? We explore why having the right team around you—financially and personally—is more important than ever.

In this episode, we are pleased to be joined by first time guest Phil McInnis, Chief Investment Strategist at Avantis Investors. Phil shares research on why investors should stay the course during periods of market volatility like what we recently witnessed following the trade tariff announcements on April 2 "Liberation Day." He reminds listeners the importance of maintaining a strategic mindset when investing in risky assets, such as equities, as the inherent risks are the reasons why stocks outperform bonds and cash over the long run. We also discuss their research into additional market risk premiums that have historically rewarded investors with higher returns such as value and cash flow profitability. 

Join us for an enlightening episode of EDVIEW360 Realizing the Promise of Reading Science by Staying the Course, where we bring together two pivotal figures in literacy education, Dr. Reid Lyon and Dr. Louisa Moats. These nationally recognized literacy experts share their invaluable insights about teaching children to read, addressing the intricate balance between what we know and what we practice. They'll offer their views on progress in the field, and what else needs to happen to ensure widespread implementation of informed teaching that will lead to lasting gains for all students. During this compelling conversation, Dr. Lyon and Dr. Moats reflect on the progress made in understanding the science of reading, the barriers that still exist in translating replicatedscientific findings into practice, and the solutions required to overcome these barriers. They delve into the complexities of decision-making in education, emphasizing the need for informed, evidence-based practices. Despite significant advancements, they acknowledge the ongoing gap in teacher knowledge and training, calling for a clinical model that fosters mentorship, collaboration, and feedback based on the development and implementation of a common professional language.Listeners will gain an understanding of Dr. Lyon's “10 Maxims” of practice derived from research as well as the basis for Dr. Moats's “speech to print” approach to instruction. The discussion will also highlight successful programs and initiatives that are paving the way for a brighter future in literacy education.This episode is a must-listen for educators, administrators, and anyone passionate about closing the gap between literacy research and practice. Tune in to be inspired and equipped with actionable strategies to advance literacy and give every child the confidence and right to read.

Often, when marketplace adversity hits, our human nature kicks in. In the midst of the hurricane, we struggle to make sense of our surroundings as disorientation overwhelms us.

In episode 188 - Just Keep Going, I share the importance of just keeping going, even when the path ahead seems unclear or the results of your efforts aren't immediately visible. As the host of the LDS Mission Podcast, I've experienced firsthand how small, consistent actions can lead to big impacts over time. When I first started sending out my weekly "Tuesday Tidbit" emails back in 2019, I had just 16 recipients. Now, that list has grown to thousands of missionaries, parents, and returned missionaries around the world. And while my podcast may have started with just 3 downloads in the first week, it now reaches thousands of listeners each month. These are tangible examples of how staying the course, even when progress feels slow, can make your goals and dreams inevitable. The key is to believe in the value of your efforts, even when you can't see the full impact. Keep taking those small steps forward, trusting that your consistency and persistence will pay off. Whether you're serving a mission, preparing for one, or navigating life after your mission, this message of "just keep going" is one I hope will encourage and empower you to embrace your potential and never stop moving towards what matters most. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.     Website | Instagram | Facebook   Get the Full Show Notes and Text/PDF Transcripts: HERE   Free PDF Download:  Podcast Roadmap   Free PDF Download:  Preparing Missionary Cheat Sheet   Free Training for Preparing Missionaries:  Change Your Mission with this One Tool   RM Transition Free Video Series:  3 Tools to Help RMs in Their Transition Home   Free Guide:  5 Tips to Help Any Returning Missionary   Schedule a Free Strategy Call:   Click Here

As a sort of "Re-Boot" for The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations podcast after taking the last 6 weeks of 2024 "off" I am choosing to 'start over' this way .... please listen weekly to Down the Rabbit Hole episodes dropped at the start of each week and / or listen daily to these readings from The Daily Stoic-- nuggets as I call them -- of wisdom passed along from Ryan Holiday. Stephen Hanselman and the ancient Greek Philosophers such as Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca. I hope you will do both. I hope you will consider journaling along with me. I hope it provides some inspiration, even motivation to keep going, to how we do what we do, to why we do what we do in moving forward 'after'...I hope it is a tool that you (like me) might find useful in your life after loss by suicide.The following is an excerpt directly from the book -- they are not my words and are placed here as a sample to help you journal. The full book must be purchased to follow along all year. I am ONLY doing this in January (on the podcast).TODAYS READING January 15 - PEACE IS IN STAYING THE COURSEGet your own copy of The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday & Stephen Hanselman**“Tranquility can't be grasped except by those who have reached an unwavering and firm power of judgment—the rest constantly fall and rise in their decisions, wavering in a state of alternately rejecting and accepting things. What is the cause of this back and forth? It's because nothing is clear and they rely on the most uncertain guide—common opinion.” —SENECA, MORAL LETTERS, 95.57b–58a "In Seneca's essay on tranquility, he uses the Greek word euthymia, which he defines as “believing in yourself and trusting that you are on the right path, and not being in doubt by following the myriad footpaths of those wandering in every direction.” It is this state of mind, he says, that produces tranquility. Clarity of vision allows us to have this belief. That's not to say we're always going to be 100 percent certain of everything, or that we even should be. Rather, it's that we can rest assured we're heading generally in the right direction—that we don't need to constantly compare ourselves with other people or change our mind every three seconds based on new information. Instead, tranquility and peace are found in identifying our path and in sticking to it: staying the course—making adjustments here and there, naturally—but ignoring the distracting sirens who beckon us to turn toward the rocks." - all above quoted words from the credited to the authors**I hope you are considering journaling along with us in January__________________________________________________________________________Go to my WEBSITE "The Leftover Pieces; Rebuilding You" is support central.PS....The FIRST SESSION of the Legacy Writing Project in 2024 has finished & the last one is under way...GET ON THE LIST NOW for the SINGLE DATE start for 2025For a way to leave a Legacy of your child - GO HEREIf you, or someone you know, is struggling ww suicidal thoughts, reach out:CALL 988   OR, you can also TEXT the word "HOME" to 741741 in the USASupport the show
