To celebrate, in this episode, Chris shares some of the major lessons about personal growth, business growth, and the intersection of those two things. From cultivating a practice of gratitude to listening more than you to speak to finding freedom in your mind, there is not a shortage of valuable lessons for you to soak up in this episode. Some of the most successful people in the world are committed to continued growth, and a part of this is taking stock of what they have learned, reflecting on it, and incorporating that new information into their lives. If this is you, you will benefit greatly from the 14 lessons Chris has learned over the past year. Key Points From This Episode:How Chris is doubling down on his personal and business growth this year.Gratitude is truly magical, so it is important to cultivate that feeling consistently.Fail forward because you will never grow if you just stay comfortable.We should listen twice as much as we speak.You could always be one thought away from attracting what you desire most.You are only three to five years away from what you want.Get permission for the hard thing you want to do.Take the trip you have been wanting to go on!Pursue goals that you are willing to commit to for five yearsThe first thought is not the one that counts; the second one is what matters.Leaders are those who show up when it is uncomfortable.Freedom, first and foremost, starts in your mind.We can learn a lot when we observe our own sense of humor.Those who are most successful are committed to continuous growth.The world needs you gift, so share it like it is expiring soon (because it is!).Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Work with ChrisGoodman CoachingChris Goodman

The stress of falling in line with family's expectations mixed with the struggle of mental health, AND topped with the uncertainty on what to even do in life, as one transitions into adulthood, is all really heavy to deal with. How can I soak up my 20's with all this weight on my shoulders? Do I have to do this all alone? Is it all even worth it?From hating school and only gaining 30 credits in a span of 5 years of college and 5 colleges, to eventually being recognized as an All-Conference and MVP, graduating summa cum laude, being awarded the entrepreneurship student of the year and being a recipient of the President's award. Ethan Fisher's journey has been nothing near easy. As a child, he always felt pushed to fall in line with the expectation of graduating high school, going to college, getting a degree, starting a 9-5 and living the white picket fence life. This expectation never fully aligned with his journey and the pressure caused him years of substance abuse. After a life changing event under the influence, Ethan quickly decided to make a change and use his story to impact individuals' lives. On this episode of Success is Subjective, Ethan joins Joanna to share his story of adversity and the lessons that have come out of his many challenges. Going from a prison inmate to a keynote speaker, Ethan has become a huge inspiration for over 100,000 young adults. Listen in for insight on Ethan's motivating life experience on how he has managed to take a hold of his life and pursue his dreams full heartedly, leading struggling individuals to a life where they can thrive, no matter where they may find themselves.

Are you as excited as I am? The Pentagon's UFO disclosure report is due in June 20201 Will it just be pictures and footage of Spacecrafts or will they talk about Aliens/ET's? Thought I would share my own UFO/ET research report to help you prepare! I've spent the last few years watching and reading more than 300 eyewitness accounts, interviews, and insider testimony from the 1950's through the 2020's - people who have had in-person contact experiences, worked with UFO crash retrieval, secret space programs, ET autopsies, Area 51 intelligence officers, ex CIA operatives, "abductees", scientists, etc etc. Here are the main themes that have come up over and over again from sources across decades and around the world that I will discuss in this episode: Different governments around the world have worked with 60+ different ET species over the last 75 yearsET's often look human like and are genetically related to Earth humans - they are our galactic brothers and sisters99% of ET's are benevolent and want the best possible outcome for humanityThere is an organization called the GFL - the Galactic Federation of Light - that has been supporting people on earth for thousands of yearsThe universe is conscious and consciousness underpins physics and realityAntigravity, portals, free energy, and time travel are common Telepathy is the universal languageLife is expressed in all 10+ dimension as different densities and harmonics of consciousness (earth humans are often at 3.12 to 4.1 density of consciousness)Earth is a "Garden" and "Library" planet that has optimal conditions for diversity of lifeWe are in the middle of a solar system-wide consciousness upgrade event commonly referred to as ascensionEvil is only possible because it is a reflection of out level of awareness - once we shift our consciousness, it ceases to exist in our realityTo participate in this upgrade all you need to do is be a majority (51%) service to others (vs. service to self) basically you just have to be a good personWe are currently on the optimal timeline for the continued evolution of humanity in spite of negative agendas by the small % of beings that are bad actorsIt important to remember that in a universe of polarity, negative entities are an equally valid form of evolution as positiveJesus really was an expression of pure source consciousness and probably even cooler than the Bible describesAncient texts like the Bible and Mahabarata describe angels, giants, blue skinned gods etc. - these are just different races of ETThe things I'm most looking forward to beside oepn contact are: healing and transportation technologies, and the interplanetary exchange program

If you’ve got a dream inside of you and you’ve never done it, you don’t want to regret that for the rest of your life. You want to give it a shot. If you make it, great. If you don't, at least you tried.” - Robert Miller “It’s not a straight path to success… It’s one step forward, it’s two steps back, it’s three steps sideways.

In this episode we cover....you guessed it, dams! Dams are incredible manmade features that can not only dominate the landscape but also dominate the river system and fundamentally change how the rivers operate. We discuss everything from the amount of dams in the United States to major dam failures in the recent past, and highlight some of the basics of how dams fundamentally affect streams when they are installed. Here are some highlights of the statistics we cover! There are roughly 91,000 Dams in the USThey Impound over 600,000 miles of river or 17% of riversThe average age is 59 yearsThe number of high-hazard potential dams is over 15,000 and increasingIt is estimated that over 70 billion dollars is needed to properly upgrade these dams. For perspective, 425 billion dollars are spent each year on Road Infrastructure. About 75% of that comes from state and local governments. 25% comes from Federal.Dam regulation is largely up to each state and each person is responsible for about 200 dams.All too many are suffering from a neglected investment in infrastructure.Dams are this interesting intersection between geology, engineering, government oversight, and humanity.So why do we build them? So many reasons: hydroelectric, irrigation, flood mitigation, recreation, municipal water——————————————————Instagram: @planetgeocastTwitter: @planetgeocastFacebook: @planetgeocastEmail: planetgeocast@gmail.comWebsite: https://planetgeocast.buzzsprout.com/

Epicenter - Learn about Blockchain, Ethereum, Bitcoin and Distributed Technologies
Just like all software, smart contracts on the blockchain are subject to serious security vulnerabilities and coding errors. The fact however that smart contracts are often directly in charge of assets and cannot be changed once they are on the blockchain, makes secure development and running essential. Some smart contract platforms have their own languages, for example Solidity in Ethereum. Bugs and vulnerabilities in the source code, and errors in the virtual machines used by the network, are the main reasons behind security issues in smart contracts.Projects using blockchain applications should expect constant changes in the security landscape. New bugs, security risks, and best practices will continue to emerge over time. Trail of Bits is a software security firm who advise in a range of industries for some top companies, including in the blockchain space.

020 - It's hard to believe we've already torn off half the pages from our 2020 calendars. Torn them off, fed 'em through the shredder and invited them to never come back. Or maybe that's just me. Anyway. This week's episode features Pittsburgh pet photographer Jessica Wasik, who's mastered the art of running successful calendar contests. She shares her favorite tips on how to find a charity partner, promote and profit from a pet photography calendar project of your own. It’s a great way to build awareness of your brand while benefiting a local non-profit. Done well, calendar contests also grow your stable of cash-dropping private clients.
