在上海合作组织峰会欢迎宴会上的祝酒辞 （2025年8月31日，天津） 中华人民共和国主席 习近平 Toast by H.E. Xi JinpingPresident of the People's Republic of ChinaAt the Welcoming Banquet of the SCO Summit (Tianjin, August 31, 2025)尊敬的各位同事、各位来宾，Dear Colleagues,Distinguished Guests,女士们，先生们，朋友们：Ladies and Gentlemen,Friends,大家晚上好！灯火海河畔，津门纳百川。我谨代表中国政府和中国人民，欢迎各位嘉宾来到天津做客。Good evening. Tonight, we are gathered here by the glittering banks of the Haihe River in Tianjin, a city defined by its embrace of waters from all corners. On behalf of the Chinese government and people, I welcome all our distinguished guests to Tianjin.今天是上海合作组织成员国领导人同各位新老朋友欢聚一堂的日子，也是吉尔吉斯斯坦独立日和马来西亚国庆日。借此机会，谨向扎帕罗夫总统、安瓦尔总理，向友好的吉尔吉斯斯坦人民、马来西亚人民，表示诚挚的祝贺！Today is a joyful day for leaders of SCO member states to have this happy gathering with old and new friends. It is also the Independence Day of Kyrgyzstan and the National Day of Malaysia. I wish to take this opportunity to offer our heartfelt congratulations to President Sadyr Japarov, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, and the friendly peoples of Kyrgyzstan and Malaysia.天津是一座开放包容的城市，自古为京畿要地，是中国改革开放先行区。这些年来，在京津冀协同发展战略引领下，中国式现代化天津篇章不断展现新气象。中方相信，在天津举办这次峰会，一定能给上海合作组织可持续发展注入新的活力。Tianjin is an open and inclusive metropolis. It has served as a strategic guardian city for our nation's capital throughout history, and pioneered China's reform and opening-up as a pilot zone. In recent years, Tianjin has implemented the national strategy of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development, and written its new and dynamic chapter in advancing Chinese modernization. We believe that as the host of this Summit, Tianjin will give fresh impetus to the sustainable development of our Organization.上海合作组织自成立以来，始终秉持“上海精神”，巩固团结互信，深化务实合作，参与国际和地区事务，成为推动构建新型国际关系和人类命运共同体的重要力量。Since its founding, the SCO has stayed committed to the Shanghai Spirit, strengthening solidarity and mutual trust, deepening practical cooperation, and taking an active part in international and regional affairs. The SCO has grown into a significant force in promoting a new type of international relations and building a community with a shared future for humanity.当前，世界百年变局加速演进，不稳定、不确定、难预料因素明显增多，上海合作组织维护地区和平稳定、促进各国发展繁荣的责任更加重大。At present, the century-defining transformation is accelerating across the world, with a marked increase in factors of instability, uncertainty, and unpredictability. The SCO thus bears an even greater responsibility for maintaining regional peace and stability and promoting development and prosperity of all countries.这次峰会肩负着凝聚各方共识、激发合作动能、擘画发展蓝图的重要使命。明天，我将同成员国各位同事举行元首理事会会议，同更多友好国家和国际组织举行“上海合作组织+”会议，共商合作发展大计，推动完善全球治理。At this Summit, we are tasked with an important mission: to build consensus among all parties, ignite momentum for cooperation, and draw up a blueprint for development. Tomorrow, I will join our colleagues at the Meeting of the Council of Heads of Member States. We will also convene the "SCO Plus" Meeting with leaders of non-SCO members and international organizations. We will focus on how to strengthen cooperation, promote development, and improve global governance.我相信，在各方共同努力下，这次峰会一定能够圆满成功，上海合作组织必将展现更大作为、实现更大发展，为促进成员国团结协作、汇聚全球南方力量、助力人类文明进步事业作出更大贡献。I am confident that with the collective efforts of all parties, this Summit will be a complete success and the SCO will play an even greater role, achieve greater development, and make greater contribution to strengthening solidarity and cooperation among the member states, pooling the strength of the Global South, and promoting the cause of human advancement.百舸争流，奋楫者先。让我们在“上海精神”指引下，从天津再出发，向着更加美好的未来，开启充满希望的新航程！As a Chinese saying goes, "In a race of a hundred boats, those who row the hardest will lead." Let us uphold the Shanghai Spirit and set out from Tianjin on a new voyage filled with hope toward an even brighter future.现在，我提议，大家共同举杯，Now, please join me in a toast:为天津峰会取得丰硕成果，To a productive and fruitful Summit;为上海合作组织实现宗旨目标，To the advancement of the SCO's goals and tasks;为各国发展繁荣、人民幸福美满，To the development and prosperity of all countries and the well-being of our people; and为各位来宾和家人的健康，To the health of all distinguished guests and your families.干杯！Cheers! 来源：新华社

Independence isn't just about the freedom we gained in 1947, it's about the responsibility we carry today.In this episode "Safeguarding Democracy" we unpack the recent concerns around voter fraud, the role of citizens in holding governments accountable, and why true democracy only thrives when we all participate.This Independence Day, let's reflect on what our vote really means and how we can safeguard the spirit of democracy for the future.Tune into Frequency 3.0.8.0 for a conversation that reminds us that independence is not a spectator sport.

During his Independence Day speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a “Deepavali gift” to the people in the form of next-generation Goods and Services Tax (GST) reforms. The Ministry of Finance subsequently said that a large part of these reforms involved moving GST from the current four-tier system to a two-tier structure of 5% and 18%, along with an overall lowering of the average tax rate. What impact will this proposal have on revenues? And should the States be compensated for revenue loss?

Today's Headlines: The FBI raided John Bolton's house over “classified docs” (read: political trolling), while Trump basically pulled off a hostile takeover of Intel, forcing the company to hand over 10% equity to the government. In D.C., National Guard troops are now openly armed, and Trump's talking about shipping them off to Chicago and New York like he's picking stops on a tour while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth guts the Pentagon of anyone not Trump-loyal enough. Down in Florida, a judge froze the swampy “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center, but DeSantis bounced back with plans for a new “Deportation Depot.” ICE is still deporting people at lightning speed, including Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who's now being sent to Uganda with barely any notice. In other news, Russia's Lavrov went on U.S. TV to hint at peace talks (translation: Ukraine gives up land), while Zelensky celebrated Independence Day with Canada's billion-dollar aid package and a parade of European allies. At the same time, the Pentagon is quietly blocking Ukraine from using U.S. long-range missiles on Russia—because “wooing” Putin is apparently still the plan. And finally, Newsom is cutting green deals with Denmark like a real head of state, and the DOJ “accidentally” dumped a soft-focus interview with Ghislaine Maxwell the same day it was supposed to hand over Epstein files—timed perfectly with the Bolton raid. Funny how that works.

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on Ukraine's 34th Independence Day.

It's Ukraine's independence day, a state holiday begun after the break with the old Soviet Union in 1991. Churches across the world have been invited to join a global prayer chain to call for peace. We are joined by Nadiyka Gerbish, a writer and podcaster living in Ternopil in Western Ukraine, and part of the Calvary Chapel Church. The Mezquita, or Great Mosque in the Spanish city of Cordoba is a unique jewel of both Islamic and Christian architecture. Just over two weeks ago we were getting news of a fire there and we immediately wondered if this was, like Notre Dame Cathedral in 2019, going to be another national disaster. Luckily the fire didn't spread, but still there's a major restoration job underway. Guy Hedgecoe reports for us from southern Spain.For two Church of England priests the command to 'take up your cross', became 'take up your paddle'. The Reverend Christina Rees and the Reverend Patrick Forbes decided to kayak down the Great Ouse - an 85 mile journey - to raise money for charity. While Cambodia has been in the news for escalating tensions with Thailand, today we're bringing you a story of reconciliation. Since 2014, Hindu and Buddhist masterpieces housed in museums and private collections in the West, have been slowly returning Cambodia. Just last summer, 22 were welcomed back. The artefacts were looted from temples during the genocidal Khmer Rouge regime in the late 1970s, and its turbulent aftermath. We hear from investigators, and former looters, who are now working together to bring the sacred statues back to Cambodia.

Now let's get into the show.   All right. So our topic for today. Sarah was like, what should we talk about? was like, I don't know. What should we talk about? And she's like, well, something's frustrated me lately is.   So something that has come up actually twice, I'd say in the last two months. So a little bit more frequent recently is leadership in the business and what the business owner needs to do and what the team needs to do and how those two should interact. Okay. So today we're talking about leadership in property management, specifically being a leader in your   property management business. All right. So I was thinking about this and I was thinking about the, and I don't want to say names. Okay. If we give examples. Sure. Of course. Okay. Okay. All right. But they'll know if they hear it, good. Sorry. be good for them. So, yeah, so, you know, we were thinking, we were talking about leadership and, what, what, what was the story? You want to share the story?   Okay. Well, this is what you mentioned when I said, should we talk about? Yeah, this is what I mentioned. So there's a business owner that wants to grow the business and wants to grow the team and has a few new hires recently, which is great. And that will get him out of the operational piece, which is also great. And I think he was making the right moves until   this happened. And he had recently messaged us and he was going to be moving forward with a few different pieces in his business that we were going to be helping him with, especially with the strategic planning. And then we got a message that essentially said, Hey, we're going to kind of put that on hold. We're going to pause. We're going to take a step back. My team voted. My team voted.   and they voted against making these changes. Yeah. And I don't know how to nicely say it. So I guess I'll say it in the way that I know how to. Okay. For the love of God, don't let the team make decisions like that. So everyone, we were talking about it a little bit this morning and   the team running the business and doing the day-to-day things and handling tasks, especially the day-to-day tasks. Great. That's fantastic. That's what they're there for. They are there to support you. You are there to guide them. You are there to lead them. we, I feel like it's fitting that this is actually being recorded on Independence Day. And it's funny that I'm going to make this statement on Independence Day. This is   not a democracy. Yeah. This is a business. Yeah. And it's also not, as you mentioned, it's not a dictatorship. So it isn't, I'm going to tell you everything and you're just going to go do it. But it's also not, this is what we want. Let's vote and see if we're actually going to do it. So the team needs to look to a leader, one leader usually, to set the vision, to set the mission.   and then the team and the leader will fulfill that. Where it gets mucky is when we have the team trying to set the vision for the business or even sometimes with the business owner. Then it gets really, really hard because have you ever had even just a small group of people, if you have three people or four people even, and you go, let's go for lunch, where do you guys wanna go?   That can be a tough discussion sometimes. Well, I want Mexican and no, I don't like that. I just had that yesterday. I would rather Italian. I don't want something so heavy. So if such a simple decision can take a really long time and be complex like that, imagine how complex it would be to set the vision and the big goal for the business with the team, with everybody putting their input in.   Yeah, that's often called death by committee. yeah. Okay. So I was thinking about this and I was thinking, well, it's not a democracy. It's not a dictatorship. So I was thinking about this and I was, you know, the scripture came to mind where there is no vision that people perish. So I looked it up and I did some research and that's Proverbs 29 18 and the word vision, I guess, is a word.   that means like revelation or divine insight or inner guidance and The word perish I'm like does this mean to die? I'm asking chat GPT Like the people die if there is a vision that sounds dramatic and it said that word actually means like to like uncovered or to set loose basically like Getting rid of restraints or becoming undisciplined or becoming lazy or chaotic   And, or just focusing on more survival instead of, you know, purpose and vision. And the verse continues, it says, but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. And, know, the law really has to do with, basically it translates basically like you need to be motivated towards some goals. there needs to be vision.   otherwise if there aren't constraints or rules or principles to follow then it leads towards chaos and or laziness and so when your team Don't have vision They don't have vision back up.   Yeah, so this this law is kind of like divine or universal order there's there's order or there's chaos and without vision and without guidance and without boundaries and without rules People tend to gravitate towards the middle right towards laziness towards chaos   And so the team has to be motivated towards some goals. If they're not motivated towards some goals or towards your goals as a business owner, they're not a culture fit. And they can't follow you and you can't lead them. And in order to lead them, you have to have goals. You have to have like provide some purpose. You and. So I thinking about this and I said, if it's not a democracy and not a dictatorship, what would it be?   And I guess it would be more like a benevolent theocracy of vision. That's what Chad GPT came up with. Basically a purpose driven monarchy, right? So there's a king, there's a queen and people believe in this person and they choose to follow and trust this person. That's really what a business is better designed to be. Now, why is that? Because democracy, if you give the majority in your business a vote to just make a decision about the business and they don't have   Vision or purpose that they believe in they're going to go towards what makes them more comfortable What makes them makes their job easier? It's not going to be what makes you more money. It's not gonna be it's not going to be what grows the business Typically, it's not going to be something that makes them uncomfortable It's not going to be something that adds more work for them Even if it's not actually more work if they perceive it as being more work So let's think about this not gonna do it   Yeah, so some business owners think, well, I'll motivate my team. I'll get them all focused on what I want. I'll get them focused on more money. And so they might do something like profit sharing or like bonus structures or giving them a split of revenue. The problem is entrepreneurs, most people are not like you and they don't really care that much about money. So money doesn't really motivate them. I know this is like a big blind spot for entrepreneurs. so profit sharing, money motivation, that doesn't work.   with the average person, like most people, most team members. Once their basic needs are met financially, more money's not gonna increase performance, it actually makes it worse. They get more comfortable, they get more lazy, they feel guilty sometimes for taking the money, and then they turn around and they're not gonna not take it, so they have to justify taking it, so they have to make you, the king or queen, the bad guy. Well, they're kind of crappy, so I deserve this.   and they have to come up with a reason why they deserve it when they don't feel deep down that they do. And so their performance actually gets worse in a lot of instances. So I think this is a good moment to pause and talk about how to make performance better instead of worse because we don't want that. So if you're looking for something that will make the performance of the team and the day to day of the team and the business a little bit better and easier, you're going to want to hear this.   All right, so many of you tell me that maintenance is probably the least enjoyable part of being a property manager and definitely the most time consuming. But what if you could cut that workload up to 85 percent? All right, this is from our sponsor. That's exactly what Vendoroo has achieved.

Over half the room at last year's Door Girl Live conference signed up with Vendoroo right there and then. They did. A year later, they're not just satisfied, they're raving about how Vendoroo has transformed their business.   Don't let maintenance drag you down. Step up your property management game with Vendoroo. Visit vendoroo.ai/doorgrow today and make this the last maintenance hire that you'll ever need. All right. That was a very well done transition into our sponsor. I was like, Ooh, where can I plug that? Okay. So there you go. So back to what we were talking about. All right. So, can we talk also about some key differences between   what the visionary does and what the team does. Just for those of you that are like, I feel like maybe I should get my team's input and I should put things to a vote. I don't see what's wrong with a vote. I don't know why that would be a bad idea. That sounds fair to me. So, mean, we do get input from our team. This is how we've built and wired up our planning system called DoorGrow OS.   Which ironically was the thing that they voted against. I know, yeah. Why? Because DoorGrow OS creates accountability. And so if you have team members that reject accountability and transparency, they're stealing from you. Probably. Very likely. Always. And I'll explain this.   Because winners want to be seen and recognized. Winners want to be seen and recognized. And that's what DoorGrow OS is. It's a recognition system. It's a goal system. It's a system for moving the business forward. And if your team members are not motivated to benefit the business, that means they're not a culture fit. Then they don't share your values and they will either just do the bare minimum, which is stealing from you. They will subtly sabotage or resist the things that you want to do like DoorGrow OS.   Right? Like growing the business, like adding doors, which is stealing from you or they will actually steal time, or cash. It's not always stealing from you to just not want to grow the business, but what it is, is it's killing your opportunity. So now you have like lost opportunity costs. So imagine if you could have been the dominant company in your market. Imagine if you could have been the company that has 1200 doors.   and because the team didn't want to do more work, you stay stuck at 250 doors. How sad would that be? How many clients would you be doing a disservice to by not growing your business? How many tenants would suffer with bad property managers? Because we all know there's a lot of those. Bad landlords and bad property managers because you and your team didn't want to grow your business.   So my thinking is this, if people are not money motivated, but their only motivation for working for you is money, because they're not really inspired by you to follow you. They're not inspired by your values, by your vision, or by the mission of the company, then they're going to steal from you, either just through being lazy, but they're going to gravitate towards that laziness or chaos. And if you don't give them vision and they're great people, you're creating that.   That's what you're creating in your business. And so I think that's why it's important. If you feel uninspired and unmotivated and not excited about your business, your goals are shitty goals. That's the problem. Your goal. You have no real vision. You're operating from within your current level of thinking, which is not vision. That means you have a weak, limited goal and it's not getting your brain to think outside the box or think differently. You need to   start creating some impossible goals. And that's probably a whole episode we could talk about. But you need and this is something that we were getting clients to doing and focusing on right now. And they're hitting some really amazing targets and getting some really amazing accomplishments. But you have to start giving your brain a different goal as a tool to think outside the box. And that's your job as a leader is to come up with a bigger vision that makes everyone feel uncomfortable because it's impossible. So it gets everyone to start to   think differently. It helps you find a different path than the current grind that you're on. Because that current path is like a slow death for entrepreneur. It's not, it's linear, it's difficult. takes, there's too many steps. You've had goals for years that you probably haven't hit. And if you have been hitting them, it's because you have a big enough vision and your team members then can be excited and believe in you. And so you got to give them something to believe in.   That's how you become that benevolent theocracy of vision. So and I think that there is a key difference between the business owner setting the vision and the goals and the mission and getting buy-in from the team and having the right team to make sure that we can fulfill that versus allowing the team to say, well, we don't   really want to grow the business. We don't want to get to a thousand doors. That would be insane. That would be so much work. We have 250 doors right now and I'm busy all day long. Oh my God, you want me to get to a thousand? Why would I do that? So we have to remember that there are key differences between a business owner, an entrepreneur and a team member. And now neither one is good or bad. I'm not saying, hey, team members are bad or entrepreneurs are bad.   Neither one is good or bad. It's just that a business needs both of those roles because your team members remember that they are employees. They are not entrepreneurs. So they will not think like entrepreneurs because they're not. the four reasons that Jason talks about for starting a business.   they're a lot less concerned with those than we are as entrepreneurs. And anyone who has ever owned or started a business, you know you're a little bit weird. You think a little bit differently than most other people do. So you've got team members who do not think like you. That's why they didn't start a business. That's why they're working for someone else. And then we're asking those people to create the vision and the mission for the company.   It's not going to work out. It's just not, they don't think the same way that you think. You as a visionary, you will think, hey, this is what we can do. This is what I want to do. This is my whole dream for the business. And team members, they might see it. They might see it from you and believe in it, but very rarely will they go, hey, you know what we should do?   What if we did this business owner? If you've got team members like that, congratulations. You've got either entrepreneurs or intrapreneurs on your team, which is very rare. But most of the time, the team members are going to gravitate towards comfort.   They don't want the stretch. They don't want the extra work. They don't want the challenge. It's scary. Entrepreneurs are risk takers just by nature. We are willing to do the things that other people are not willing to do. So if we ask our team to vote or ask our team to figure out, what should we do with the company?   They're not going to think the same way that you think and they're generally going to gravitate towards Comfort well, hey, we're good right now. Like I don't think anything has to change. Let's just keep doing what we're doing Right. We don't want to hurt our level service. We don't want to lose our clients. Like let's keep things status quo Yeah, and if we do more If we get more doors now, we have to do more work Yeah, they're generally how exciting is that gonna be?   Yeah, I would love to triple my work. That would be amazing. Definitely triple my work. Yes, I'm for that. Said no one ever. Except for maybe an entrepreneur. Yeah. Yeah, I think, I think, your team needs to be people that value accountability and they value transparency because they want to be seen and they want to be recognized. If they don't want to be seen and they don't want to be recognized, then they really, they want to steal from you.   Not in an intentional way sometimes, but sometimes intentionally. They will basically, like I said earlier, do the bare minimum, sabotage or steal time. And sometimes they steal money because they just, they don't have the same values as you. So, you know, it's not about having like control. It's not about control. It's about clarity, clarity of purpose. It's not about rules.   It's about there being resonance. Like they resonate with it. It's not about votes. It's about values. Right? And the vote thing just, it's so shocking to me. If we have one entrepreneur and then even two team members, majority rules is the team members. Yeah. The team can outvote the entrepreneur. What the hell kind of business are you setting up? I'm so sorry, but seriously, what kind of business are you setting up?   Yeah, get around five other entrepreneurs and then have them vote what you should do. Do that. That would be a different vote than your team. And if your team is going, Oh my God, you're insane. That's not a bad thing. Now, if they go, Oh my God, you're insane. There's no way we're doing that. I'm I'm nope. I'm not doing it. Then you probably have the wrong team. They don't believe in you. They don't trust you.   They don't believe in your vision. okay if your team thinks you're crazy. Our team thinks we're crazy all the time. And we warn them, we warn them. We came back from Mexico and we said, okay, just so you guys know, we've got some crazy shit planned. It's gonna be insane. So buckle up, brace for impact. It's gonna happen. If you're here, you're on the roller coaster and it's going for a ride, baby.   And they know, and they know they all laughed because they're like, okay, Sarah and Jason are doing it again. Here they go. All right. And they think we're a little bit nuts and that's okay. But they're still excited about it. They don't, they don't go, my God, this is terrifying. I don't want to do this. No, not at all. It's okay if they think you're a little bit nuts, as long as they're bought into the big goal. But very rarely are they going to come up with a big goal themselves. Yeah.   Like team members that are part of big goals are way happier. But yeah, it's harder. But then they felt like when you do hard things and you accomplish things, you feel better about yourself. So they have greater self-worth. I mean, look at your team members. They look like lazy people. Like you can usually tell if your team members are lazy or unmotivated or whether they're excited and inspired to like move the business forward. So an analogy, you mentioned   on our walk this morning that when we were talking a bit about this. was a good analogy. The analogy of the ship. boat. Sometimes I come up with this stuff. Yeah. I don't even know where it comes from. And so this is I was thinking about this. And so this is what I wrote down earlier when I was preparing for this. it's my it's my thing. You're not going to share my analogy. And OK, you do yours and I'll share my version. You you can share your version. OK, so the way that I put it this morning.   Thanks for the reminder, by the way. The way I put it this morning is think of it like a ship. OK, so the business owner needs to be the captain of the ship. What happens when there are several captains? It's hard. We need to go this way. No, we need to go this way. No, we're supposed to be going northeast. No, we're not. Right. It gets it gets messy. One captain of the ship. What does the captain do? The captain is the one who is.   creating the plan and keeping things on track and saying, this is where we're going, this is what we're doing, and I'm leading. Now the team, they're not captains. The team, what happens on a ship, if you think about it, is the captain the only crew member on the ship? No, absolutely not. That would also be a disaster. So if there's just the captain and nobody else, there is a whole crew.   behind the scenes that are doing the things to make the ship work and keep this ship safe. So they're doing things like, you know, working underneath and they're making sure there's enough fuel. Back in the days they used to like load the coal. They're making sure that the ship isn't sinking. They're doing all of the things that the captain isn't doing or doesn't want to do or can't do, but they work in tandem. They work together.   in order to make sure that the ship is safe, moving forward, not sinking, and reaches its destination. And the different people have different roles in that. But imagine if you asked the crew to come up and be the captain. Imagine if you asked four crew members to come up and be co-captains.   Disaster and then imagine if you took the captain and said you're gonna go below the deck and you're gonna do all of that work Well, I don't know how to do that. I know how to steer the ship too bad figure it out. What happens disaster So you need to work together in tandem, but the visionary entrepreneur needs to be the one who is the captain So I like this analogy of the captain because the captain's goal is to protect the ship   It's to protect everybody on board. It's to keep everything moving forward. So if you think back in the day, the captain would navigate and he would navigate by the stars because they're out in the middle of the ocean. And so he had the vision. He had the maps. He had the access to the resources and the perspective, the vision that the crew didn't have. And the crew does not vote where to go. Sure don't. They're not voting. Nope.   Like, well, I vote we turn left here. I don't know. It like a good direction, but the captain's like, but guys is doing, I've got the maps. Like, yeah, we think we should put it to a vote. We just, you know, but I think we should go that way. So they follow the captain out of trust too, because the captain has vision. And if they don't, they walk the plank. So you fire them and you get them out of the business. All right. So, okay. And then also I think what I will say too is I think this is a   Man, sometimes I'm smarter than I even realize. This is such a good analogy because what happens if and when the ship sinks? Who goes down with the ship, guys? It's the captain. Does the crew go down with the ship intentionally? Not usually. They're trying to jump off. They're trying to, they're like, get me out of here. I need to save myself. Where are the rafts? Where are the lifeboats? Where, how do I get off of here? The captain does not abandon the ship.   The captain goes down with the ship if it goes down. So since the captain is the one who would go down with the ship, they need to be the one who's ultimately responsible for it. And your business is the same. Your team members are not going to go down with your business. They're going to hop ship. They're going to ⁓ I quit. I need to go work for somebody else because this is clearly not working. As the entrepreneur, you don't have that same ability.   you get to figure it out. And for that reason, it's gotta be you. It does not need to be you who's doing the day-to-day work, but it does need to be you who's setting that vision for everybody else on the team. And so that doesn't mean you don't get good ideas, you don't get feedback from everybody else. Somebody may have a better idea than you in certain scenarios, but that's, that's your, your leading and you're leading with vision, which means you have, you're the one that has set.   big impossible goals that get everybody out of their current limited prison in their own mind of thinking. so groupthink isn't vision, it's mediocrity. I'll say that again, groupthink isn't vision, it's mediocrity. And so if you're allowing groupthink to take over, then it's gonna go towards the middle, right? Like the bell curve in elementary school or in grade school.   Right. It's going to go towards middle, not towards exceptional. It's going to gravitate towards the mediocrity. And this, I, this is something I thought about before we started recording that I thought was really important. It's not enough just to be a leader and to have vision. You have to be a leader worth following. You have to have a vision that's worth following and you have to have team members that you've selected that.   are the type of people that share your values that would buy into your vision, that do believe you're a leader worth following. And so being a leader worth following is not about putting a gun to anyone's head. It's not about threatening to fire them. It's about creating a vision and bringing in the right people that can see that they want to be inspired. They want to be part of something bigger. They want to be part of something that's having a positive impact. They have a reason for being there that's bigger.   than just getting a paycheck. They can get a paycheck in a lot of different ways. And most of them aren't money motivated. So they need a job or a path that can give them something beyond just money and that's purpose. And that's what your vision does. It provides purpose. And so your vision needs to be bigger than just getting a buck out of your clients. And that's why we get into this stuff in our, we call purpose secrets in our DoorGrow Academy.   that we coach clients on because that's the actual product. The actual product in a property management business is not property management. It's you the business owner and your unique vision and the unique team and systems that you have created around that. That's what makes you different than every other management company. Otherwise, if you're just a management company and all you sell is the property management and that's the product they might and everyone does the same thing. They might as well just go with the cheapest company.   Cause you haven't really set yourself apart. So the thing that people are lacking usually to in order to do this is clarity. So recently we built something really cool. Then we excited to tell people about. Jason did it. Jason built it. Okay. He's like, we did it. All right. I built it. So Jason built it. Jason's nerdy. being DoorGrow so, um, yeah. So   Basically, we built this clarity assessment because the one thing you're lacking, if you don't have vision, you don't have good goals, you don't have good leadership, you're lacking clarity. You're spending plenty of time in your business. You're taking plenty of action, but you're not making progress. You're lacking clarity. Without clarity, we go in the wrong direction. Just like the ship. We end up in the wrong place. It's not reaching our goals. Without clarity, we take the wrong actions. We do the wrong growth strategies. We make a ton of mistakes.   And so if you're not making the progress you want, the one thing you need is clarity. And so I want to help you get this. And I can't talk to everybody all the time. And so I created this clarity assessment. It's a really cool form. I built it out. It's got a video for each step to guide you through clarity in what matters to you, what you want, why it met, like how it connects to emotion.   Because if it doesn't, if your goals don't emotionally matter, you'll never achieve them. Yeah. You there's what you want to get away from. There's what you want to move towards. What's your ideal outcome and what emotionally, how do you connect that? Cause otherwise you won't be inspired or motivated enough to take action or do it or to inspire your team to do it because you have a weak goal or you have a weak purpose and you're not really connected to it. And so you've been lacking clarity. That's what you've been lacking. If you haven't been making the progress that you want to make clarity is what lights you on fire.   So you go through our clarity assessment and to get to it, you go to doorgrow.com/clarity You go to that. There's a form there. Watch the video first for the instructions. This is important. Don't go cheap on this because this is for you. I already know our stuff works. I don't need to like convince myself.   I already know that you need or could benefit from what we have. We've helped hundreds of people. You need to get clarity first on what you think is your problem and how it emotionally impacts you and all this. Go through the clarity assessment and based on your questions, it will give you a free training. If you go through the whole thing, it'll take you a little bit. If you go through the whole thing and you go deep into this, you'll get a much better outcome. And then...   You will think you know what your problem is maybe and how you're connected to it. And then I'm going to give you a training related to what you had selected is the issue. And I'm going to blow your mind and I'm going to share with you why what you think is the problem is not the actual problem. So you're going to get more clarity in that second step. I'm going to give you a free training related to the myth or the belief that you have that you think is holding you back. And then after you do that, then you can go to our video of me explaining our entire system.   our program, what's included, what it costs, everything. You don't have to get on a sales call. You don't have to talk to anybody in order to get all of this information. More clarity on how DoorGrow could then benefit you in a path to get beyond your current limited thinking and your current path that has not been working. So clarity assessment to get clarity, then training to get greater clarity on what the actual issue is, and then a path for the future.   And then you can schedule your onboarding call with us if you feel that's appropriate. And so you can go through all this and do this and us at DoorGrow will be talking with you soon. And some of you will move through the fast lane and go through this. And some of you, my team will probably need to follow up and keep you accountable and say, Hey, did you do this next step and do this? You know, and you'll be like, well, I'm really busy, but I'm working on it. You know, but if this matters to you, then you will identify that during the clarity assessment.   and it needs to matter. Otherwise, why do it? If it doesn't matter, then you don't need to grow. Just give up. It doesn't matter. But if it matters, you need to figure out why it matters. You need to get really connected to that. And that clarity assessment is going to help you do it. Cool. So DoorGrow dot com slash clarity. I'm really excited about this. I've had some people go through it. Lady went through it yesterday. First time went through all this stuff in and and joined the program.   And so I'm excited because that's going to allow us to benefit more people. I don't have to do hours and hours of calls trying to convince you of all this. And you get free trainings and free knowledge. We had one client go through some of our free stuff like this, came to our jumpstart session because we onboard people in person as part of the program. And he had added 41 doors just from our free stuff, just from our free stuff. He's like, I tried some of the things I thought I could do based on what you told me.   And he added 41 doors. Yeah. Yeah. So, if you've been listening to this podcast and haven't yet added doors. Yeah. Our program's already paid for it for him, like forever, like residually, because he's making so much money, extra money now. So our program costs nothing, by the way, if you do what we tell you to do, you make more money and that's called an ROI people, right? There's a return on investment and you make more and you continue to make more and more.   than what you pay us. And that's the ultimate win. We wanna see you succeed.

This week on Another Pass, Case and Sam are joined by guest Sean Muir to dissect the late '90s sci-fi horror flick Virus—a movie where bad wiring meets worse decisions. Together, they explore the film's potential, its squandered setup, and how it almost became the Event Horizon of killer robot movies. #AnotherPass #Virus1999 #JamieLeeCurtis #DonaldSutherland #SeanMuir #SciFiHorror #FlawedButFascinating Another Pass Full Episode Originally aired: August 22, 2025 Music by Vin Macri and Matt Brogan Podcast Edited by Sophia Ricciardi Certain Point Of View is a podcast network brining you all sorts of nerdy goodness!

The film was released in January 1999, originally scheduled for late 1998, but was a commercial failure, earning only half of its budget back with critical reviews reflecting its shortcomings. Discussion revealed that the movie heavily referenced better films like The Thing and Alien, being described as merely an 'outline of a movie', lacking the depth expected from the genre. The technical achievements of Phil Tippett's animatronics were praised, although criticized for being too bright for the intended horror atmosphere, while CGI elements did not hold up well. Cultural shifts post-9/11 were noted as a change in audience appetite for sci-fi horror, marking an end to the late 90s creature feature trend seen in films like Independence Day. Character development was weak, with the consensus that Billy Baldwin's role could be eliminated without impacting the story; Sherman Augustus's character identified as the most promising but underutilized. Proposed a campier direction for the film, featuring humans viewed as 'uncouth' by aliens, which could yield more engaging content and interactions among the crew. Suggested removing the opening space scene to enhance suspense, providing a fresher take on alien threat revelation and deepening story engagement. Critique noted inconsistencies in character portrayals   Notes ️ Episode Introduction & Setup (00:00 - 10:25) Case Aiken and Sam Alicea welcome guest Sean Muir (Movie Midness) to discuss the 1999 sci-fi horror film 'Virus'. Both Case and Sam were unfamiliar with the film despite it featuring notable actors and being from 1999, highlighting how obscure it became. John Bruno left his VFX supervisor position on Titanic to direct this film, but his career trajectory after this movie remains unclear. The movie appears made for cyberpunk enthusiasts, sci-fi nerds, and specifically mentioned Billy Idol during his cyberpunk phase after missing the T-1000 role in Terminator 2. Movie Plot Summary & Analysis (07:40 - 20:48) Film opens with Russian space station receiving alien energy that transfers to communication ship; American tugboat crew discovers abandoned vessel during hurricane and faces killer machines. Features Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Sutherland, Billy Baldwin, and Cliff Curtis; Sam expresses confusion about Billy Baldwin's casting choices. Film draws heavily from better movies including The Thing, Alien, Event Horizon, and Ghost Ship; described as feeling like an 'outline of a movie'. Movie was a commercial bomb, earning only half its budget back and receiving harsh critical reviews. ️ Technical & Production Discussion (20:49 - 40:48) Phil Tippett's animatronics work praised as excellent, though perhaps too well-lit for horror atmosphere; practical effects hold up better than CGI elements. Late 90s represented end of creature feature era; audiences moving toward CGI spectacle seen in films like Independence Day and Jurassic Park sequels. Discussion of how cultural tastes changed dramatically after 9/11, affecting appetite for this type of sci-fi horror content. Movie reused ship from The Abyss and other James Cameron productions; originally scheduled for 1998 release but moved to January 1999 'dump month'. Character & Story Analysis (40:48 - 01:02:22) Crew relationships underdeveloped compared to superior ensemble films like Aliens; characters lack memorable personality moments. Consensus that Billy Baldwin's character adds nothing to the film and could be completely removed without impact. Sherman Augustus's character Richie identified as film's best, showing intelligence and survival instincts that should have made him the protagonist. Central concept of humans being the 'virus' poorly executed compared to The Matrix (same year) or later films like Arrival. Pitch Session - Campy Direction (01:02:23 - 01:12:53) Proposes making film campier with Galactic Union of Planets deciding humans are 'uncouth' and sending computer virus to eliminate them efficiently. Suggests more scenes of Richie building weapons from robot parts and crew creating makeshift tools for survival. Proposes aliens are annoyed by human space transmissions like 'intergalactic Mormons' constantly trying to make contact. More creative use of ship's manufacturing equipment turned into weapons. Technical Improvement Suggestions (01:12:53 - 01:22:35) Sean criticizes inconsistent Scottish accent performance, suggests either full commitment or using natural voice. Marshall Bell (Woods) needs better pain expression training for nail gun injury scenes. Second wall of hurricane not properly represented with appropriate ship movement and chaos during climax. Movie lacks clear layout understanding, unlike Die Hard's excellent building geography that aids tension. Horror Direction Alternative (01:16:55 - 01:22:35) Remove opening space station scene, make it flashback told by Nadia; focus on mystery and unknown threat. Give Jamie Lee Curtis's Kit Foster more personal stakes and character arc beyond basic competence. Build more suspense through delayed revelation of alien threat; explore 'humans as virus' theme more thoroughly. Better utilize ship's impressive technical areas and create clearer navigation understanding. Wrap-up & Social Media (01:22:35 - 01:27:59) Sean Muir promotes Movie Midness Instagram, Letterboxd, and YouTube profiles featuring movie analysis and model train scene recreations. Thanks to executive producer level supporters including Micah McCaw, Carter Hallett, Sean Muir, and others. Highlander 2: The Quickening announced as next film for discussion. Shoutouts to Macaw Podcast, We Have Issues comic review show, and Books that Burn literature podcast.

Air Marshal Sanjeev Kapoor (Retd.), former Commandant of the National Defence Academy and decorated Indian Air Force veteran, sits down with Gaurav Arora on The xMonks Drive for a no-filter Independence Day special.

Don't Go Back to Babylon - S7E7 Friend of the show & Iconograhper Nick Papas is once again our most welcome guest for this conversation, which will be presented in two parts, the second of which will be episode eight.Our previous discussion about Independence Day having individual meaning for Jim & Fr Symeon got Jim to thinking about how much this actually inverts the purpose of public holidays.

On July 4th, CHUS took over Club MODE in downtown Miami for an unforgettable Independence Day celebration. The night opened with something special — his brand-new remix of Philip Z – Pineapple (DJ Chus Remix). For the past two years, MODE has been home to CHUS's Miami residency, also hosting other Stereo artists like Joeski and Technasia soon. It's an intimate room where the crowd comes to dance, feel the music, and leave their egos (and cell phones) at the door. A space built on pure energy and connection. If you're planning a trip to Miami, MODE is highly recommended. Now it's showtime.

Hello Gaslit Nation listeners! This conversation was recorded before war criminal Putin and convicted felon Trump staged their grotesque spectacle on the blood-red carpet in Alaska. For our analysis of that hellscape—and what it means for Ukraine and democracy defenders everywhere—be sure to check out the recording of the August 18th salon, coming soon to Patreon.com/Gaslit. Thank you for listening and supporting the show! * In Ukraine's Revolution of Dignity, we find a roadmap for fighting oligarchy, injustice, and despair. Historian Marci Shore, author of The Ukrainian Night: An Intimate History of Revolution, reminds us that revolutions rarely begin with grand plans.  The 2014 EuroMaidan uprising started with students protesting a classic bait-and-switch. President Viktor Yanukovych, the Ukrainian Trump, ditched a long-promised agreement to move Ukraine closer to the European Union. Instead he took a massive bribe from Russia.  When peaceful protesters gathered, Yanukovych sent in his riot police to beat them, like in Russia. This backfired. Their parents showed up. Then their neighbors. Then thousands more across the country. Within days, Kyiv was packed with hundreds of thousands of furious, freezing citizens demanding dignity, decency, and an end to oligarch rule. Yanukovych has been in exile in Russia ever since, awaiting his American counterpart, Trump.  August 24 marks 34 years since Ukraine overwhelmingly voted to break free from Kremlin rule and declare its political independence. Ukraine's Independence Day is a reminder to never bet against people who've had enough. As historian Marci Shore shares urgent lessons for us today, saying, “The fact that it can happen at all means that somehow we human beings have that in us. We somehow have that capacity, and we have to cling to that hope.”  Marci also discusses the debate many are having in America today: Do we stay or do we go? She and her husband the historian Tim Snyder made headlines when news broke they had relocated to Toronto, for impotant opportunities, ringing an alarm that authoritarian experts had left America.  Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

On 13 August 2025, the eve of Pakistan's Independence Day, Pakistan's Prime Minister announced the creation of the Army Rocket Force Command (ARFC)—seen by many as inspired by China's PLARF (People's Liberation Army Rocket Force).

#cuttheclutter On India's 79th Independence Day, PM Modi delivered his longest speech from Red Fort.

On India's 79th Independence Day, we spotlight stories often left out of the mainstream narrative — ones that reveal how the vision for a new India was never uniform. From young Indians in Britain rallying against colonial rule, to fierce debates over caste and representation, to the struggles of French and Portuguese territories that remained under foreign control long after 1947. These are stories of competing ideals, unfinished battles, and the diverse paths different regions and communities took toward independence, reminding us that liberation meant different things to different people.Guest: Professor Arup K. Chatterjee (OP Jindal Global University), The Indian Express' Nikita Mohta and Adrija Roychowdhury.Hosted, written and produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

It's Tuesday, August 12th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson 4 of 5 most populated countries hostile to Christianity International Christian Concern reports that now “four of the five most populous countries in the world share a disturbing reality: Christians are systematically and harshly persecuted within their borders.” And we would add that these four nations have stepped up persecution against Christians over the last ten years. The four countries are China with a population of 1.41 billion people, India with a population of 1.46 billion people, Indonesia with a population of 285 million people, and Pakistan with a population of 255 million people. By contrast, the United States, with a population of 347 million people, is the other top 5 most populated country which actually allows for religious freedoms. Russia won't comply with 1987 moratorium on nuclear missiles Last week, Russia announced it will no longer comply with the 1987 moratorium on deployment of nuclear-capable intermediate range missiles. These missiles are designed to bring total annihilation to European cities. This opens the way for nuclear-capable launch vehicles to be deployed proximate to theaters of military operation. China doubled nuclear warheads China began its nuclear buildup in 2018—increasing its nuclear firepower from 280 to 600 warheads, and adding 350 new Intercontinental ballistic missile silos this year. This buildup took place at the same time France and the United Kingdom reduced their nuclear arsenals. 80th anniversary since U.S. dropped atomic bombs in Japan This month marks the 80th anniversary since the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. The city of Hiroshima marked the anniversary with a memorial event. The city's mayor, Shiro Suzuki, addressed the gathering, as one whose parents survived the 1945 attack. Suzuki said, ”Conflicts around the world are intensifying in a vicious cycle of confrontation and fragmentation . . . and if we continue on this trajectory, we will end up thrusting ourselves into a nuclear war. This existential crisis of humanity has become imminent to each and every one of us living on Earth." Youth unemployment up worldwide The BBC reports some Chinese college graduates are actually paying for a pretend job. The outlet mentions a business called “Pretend to Work Company."   With real jobs increasingly hard to come by, some young adults would rather pay to go into an office rather than to be stuck at home. This year, China's youth unemployment rate has scraped 17 percent. Canada has seen a sharp increase of youth unemployment—now at 14.2 percent. Italy's rate is upwards of 22 percent, and the United Kingdom has seen more increases of youth unemployment what they call “youth economic inactivity” in recent years—now at 13.4 percent. But youth unemployment in South Africa is the highest at 61 percent. The Apostle Paul exhorts the youth and all of us that "If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread." (2 Thessalonians 3:10-12) World Vision justified in denying employment to a lesbian The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled  that the Christian ministry, World Vision, was well within the law when they denied employment to a lesbian named Aubry McMahon who was in a sinful relationship with a woman she called her “wife.” The court held that the ministry had not violated federal or Washington state non-discrimination laws because it was covered under the “ministerial exception.”  Abortion Kill Pill has enabled abortion rate to increase despite Dobbs Americans are killing significantly more babies following the U.S. Supreme Court reversal of Roe v. Wade through the Dobbs decision on June 24, 2022. Official records put the annual number at 1.1 million, up from 880,000 in 2020. That's a 25 percent increase. The difference appears to be made up by the abortion kill pill by mail program. About 63 percent of the murder of babies is executed by the abortion pill now, and 25 percent of all abortions come by “Telehealth” or by mail. Twenty-two leading Southern Baptist pastors have issued a letter to President Donald Trump, requesting that the administration “stop the mail-order distribution of the abortion drug mifepristone.” To this point, the Trump administration has been reticent to limit access to the abortion kill pill. In May, the U.S. Justice Department recommended tossing out a lawsuit that would have restricted a reduction of access to Telehealth abortions. In an interview with interview with Time Magazine in December, the president reiterated five times, that it was "highly unlikely” the Food and Drug Administration would do anything to restrict access to the Abortion Kill Pill.  However, God is in control. Jeremiah 51:19, 20, and 24 reminds us "He is the Maker of all things;  and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The Lord of hosts is His name. You are My battle-ax and weapons of war: For with you, I will break the nation in pieces, says the Lord." California fire has burned 120,000 acres The State of California is dealing with more out-of-control fires. The Gifford Fire started up last Wednesday, and has already consumed some 120,000 acres. It's now threatening the towns of Arroyo Grande and Santa Maria. Sadly, it's only 30 percent contained.  Grand Canyon fire has burned 144,000 acres The Dragon Bravo fire in Arizona has shut down the Grand Canyon North Rim for the season.   This fire has burned up 144,000 acres. In God's all powerful workings, this fire began by lightning strike on Independence Day, July 4th. Despite tariff revenues, 2025 U.S. deficit is $109 million higher than 2024 And finally, despite the Department of Government Efficiency, the tariff hullabaloo, and the influx of import taxes to the federal government coffers, this year's deficit, through July, is a whopping $109 billion more than it was last year. The deficit totaled $1.6 trillion over the first 10 months of fiscal year 2025—heading towards a $1.9 trillion deficit for the year. That's about eight times the average deficit incurred under the George W. Bush administration.
