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 24 - THE ONLY PRIZEGet your own copy of The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday & Stephen Hanselman** “What's left to be prized? This, I think—to limit our action or inaction to only what's in keeping with the needs of our own preparation . . . it's what the exertions of education and teaching are all about—here is the thing to be prized! If you hold this firmly, you'll stop trying to get yourself all the other things. . . . If you don't, you won't be free, self-sufficient, or liberated from passion, but necessarily full of envy, jealousy, and suspicion for any who have the power to take them, and you'll plot against those who do have what you prize. . . . But by having some self-respect for your own mind and prizing it, you will please yourself and be in better harmony with your fellow human beings, and more in tune with the gods—praising everything they have set in order and allotted you.” —MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 6.16.2b–4a Warren Buffett, whose net worth is approximately $65 billion, lives in the same house he bought in 1958 for $31,500. John Urschel, a lineman for the Baltimore Ravens, makes millions but manages to live on $25,000 a year. San Antonio Spurs star Kawhi Leonard gets around in the 1997 Chevy Tahoe he's had since he was a teenager, even with a contract worth some $94 million. Why? It's not because these men are cheap. It's because the things that matter to them are cheap. Neither Buffett nor Urschel nor Leonard ended up this way by accident. Their lifestyle is the result of prioritizing. They cultivate interests that are decidedly below their financial means, and as a result, any income would allow them freedom to pursue the things they most care about. It just happens that they became wealthy beyond any expectation. This kind of clarity—about what they love most in the world—means they can enjoy their lives. It means they'd still be happy even if the markets were to turn or their careers were cut short by injury. The more things we desire and the more we have to do to earn or attain those achievements, the less we actually enjoy our lives—and the less free we are." - 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 Support the show

As kids, some of us dream of multiple careers: being an astronaut AND the next president. Or digging up dinosaurs AND selling out concert stadiums. As we get older, there's pressure to pick one path. But what if we didn't have to? After all, John Urschel didn't. He's a mathematician and professor at MIT. But before that, he played football for the Baltimore Ravens. Today on the show, Monday night football! Host Regina G. Barber talks to Urschel about linear algebra and following his dream of becoming a mathematician while living the dream as a NFL player.
Matematica e NFL sono legati da un filo costante. Statistiche, punteggi, schemi. Oppure come in questo caso grazie a un professore di matematica al MIT che fino a qualche anno fa era un uomo di linea dei Baltimore Ravens.

Kidnapping of Charles Urschel
John Urschel is not your typical mathematician. Before earning his PhD in applied mathematics from MIT, Urschel played college football at Penn State and then went on to play in the NFL with the Baltimore Ravens. For several years, he was able to juggle both passions and reach the top echelons of both sport and academia. This week – we touch on his unique path & what he's learned along the way.

George Kelly Barnes a.k.a. "Machine Gun" Kelly is one of the most famous criminals from the "Public Enemy #1" era and for good reason. Kelly started out bootlegging during prohibition but soon expanded to bank robberies and even kidnapping. His most famous crime---and his downfall---came in 1933 when he kidnapped oil tycoon Charles F. Urschel. We will tell you all about his bootlegging, his robberies and all about the kidnapping and aftermath of Urschel. This is one can't miss episode!
John Urschel received his bachelors and masters in mathematics from Penn State and then went on to become a professional football player for the Baltimore Ravens in 2014. During his second season, Urschel began his graduate studies in mathematics at MIT alongside his professional football career. Urschel eventually decided to retire from pro football to pursue his real passion, the study of mathematics, and he completed his doctorate in 2021. Urschel is currently a scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study where he is actively engaged in research on graph theory, numerical analysis, and machine learning. In addition, Urschel is the author of Mind and Matter, a New York Times bestseller about his life as an athlete and mathematician, and has been named as one of Forbes 30 under 30 for being an outstanding young scientist. In this episode, John and I discuss a hodgepodge of topics in spectral graph theory. We start off light and discuss the famous Braess's Paradox in which traffic congestion can be increased by opening a road. We then discuss the graph Laplacian to enable us to present Cheeger's Theorem, a beautiful result relating graph bottlenecks to graph eigenvalues. We then discuss various graph embedding and clustering results, and end with a discussion of the PageRank algorithm that powers Google search.

Ngày 25 Tháng Một, PHẦN THƯỞNG DUY NHẤT *** “Thứ còn lại đáng trân trọng là gì? Tôi nghĩ - đó là giới hạn hành động và không hành động vào những điều thật sự cần thiết...trong việc chuẩn bị cho tương lai. Đó là những gì mà việc học tập và giảng dạy đang hướng đến - Đó là điều đáng được trân trọng. Nếu giữ vững được nó bạn sẽ không cần phải cố gắng ở những điều khác nữa... Ngược lại bạn sẽ không bao giờ có được tự do, độc lập hay thoát ra được những đam mê thấp hèn và điều tất yếu là trong bạn đầy những đố kỵ, ghen ghét, mưu mô và ngờ vực... Nhưng bằng cách tôn trọng chính tâm trí của bạn và đánh giá cao nó, bạn sẽ làm hài lòng chính mình và hòa hợp hơn với đồng loại, và đồng điệu hơn với các vị thần, ca ngợi và thuận theo những thứ mà tự nhiên sắp đặt cho bạn”. - MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 6.16.2b–4a; Warren Buffett, với khối tài sản 65 tỉ đô, vẫn sống trong 1 căn nhà mà ông ấymua năm 1958 với giá 35.000 đô. John Urschel, nhân viên phụ trách của Baltimore Ravens, kiếm được hàng triệu đô nhưng chỉ tiêu xài 25.000 đô 1 năm. Ngôi sao của San Antonio Spurs, Kawhi Leonard đi trên chiếc Chevy Tahoe 1997 mà ông có khi còn là một thiếu niên, ngay cả khi ông đang có một hợp đồng trị giá 94 triệu USD.Tại sao? Không phải vì những người nàynghèo, mà bởi vì những gì thực sự quan trọng với họ rất rẻ. Không phải tự nhiên mà cả Buffett, Leonard hay Urschel đều làm như vậy. Phong cách sống của họ là kết quả của việc biết ưu tiên những gì thật sự quan trọng. Họ chỉ nuôi dưỡng những nhu cầu cá nhân trong mức thu nhập của mình, kết quả là,cho dù với bất cứ mức thu nhập nào họ cũng đều có thể tự do theo đuổi những thứ mình quan tâm. Nó cứ thế mà xảy ra với sự giàu có vượt qua bất kì mong đợi nào.Và điều này sẽ giúp họ biết điều gì khiến họ hạnh phúc nhất, đồng nghĩa với việc họ sẽ tận hưởng cuộc sống của mình, cho dù thị trường có khủng hoảng, hay sự nghiệp của họ tạm thời đi xuống. Chúng ta càng mong muốn nhiều thứ thì chúng ta càng phải làm nhiều thứ để kiếm được hoặc đạt được những thành tựu đó. Khi chúng ta càng ít thực sự tận hưởng cuộc sống thì chúng ta càng ít tự do hơn. --------------------- # Góp ý về chất lượng Podcast nếu bạn không hài lòng tại đây # Đọc thêm nhiều bài viết về Phát triển bản thân tại đây # Tham gia nhóm Phát triển bản thân của mCoaching tại đây # Mời mCoaching team một ly cà phê tại đây

John Urschel is not your typical doctoral candidate. Before studying mathematics at MIT, Urschel played college football for Penn State and then in the NFL for three seasons with the Baltimore Ravens. Mathematics and football have always been central focuses in his life. He discusses the challenges of juggling both and why he ultimately left football to pursue his PhD.
John Urschel is a respected mathematician pursuing his PhD at MIT. He is also a former offensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens. He may seem like a walking contradiction, but Urschel’s experiences on the field and in the classroom have brought him closer to understanding how emotion and reason, the body and the mind, are always working together. In MIND AND MATTER: A Life in Math and Football, co-written by Louisa Thomas, Urschel’s partner and an accomplished author and journalist, he invites readers into his unique life, where math and athletics both provide a path to make sense of the world around him. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:John Urschel is a former offensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens and a PhD candidate at MIT. He has a bachelor’s and master’s degree in mathematics from Penn State, and in 2013, he won the Sullivan Award, given to “the most outstanding amateur athlete in the United States,” and the Campbell Trophy, awarded to the country's top scholar-athlete in college football. He co-wrote this book, with his partner, Louisa Thomas. John and Louisa live in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with their daughter. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/steve-richards/support

My conversation with the only person qualified to use the Twitter handle @MathMeetsFball -- Baltimore Ravens' offensive lineman John Urschel. Urschel is getting major buzz this week after linebacker Chris Borland retired from the NFL to avoid the long-term health risks of football. Urschel weighed in on Derek Jeter's new website The Players' Tribune with a piece called "Why I Play Football." But that's not the question that drove me to call Urschel. What I set out to learn is how a man whose elementary school teachers considered him "mentally challenged" reached such a high level of achievement in sports AND academics. It was his mother. Once John Urschel gets started talking about his mother he has a a hard time stopping -- and it's hard to stop listening to the dramatic details.
