Podcasts about you cannot

On this episode of Fred Blumenberg’s Authentic Quote of the Day: “When you’re ready to fail, that’s the moment you’re ready to succeed.” You CANNOT succeed without failing miserably. Are you ready to fail MISERABLY????

This Podcast has occasional critics.  Often, their protest is something like, "You guys just CANNOT know God.  You CANNOT be friends with God".  Today, I am appreciating their sentiments.  I suppose it should be just as amazing to me as it is to them.  Yup, sometimes I can hardly believe it either.Jesus reiterates a final commandment:  Love one another (that part is old) AS I HAVE LOVED YOU (that part is new).  The problem is that He then defines it as the ultimate laying down one's life for them.The good news is that is one thing that makes us friends.  The second is REVELATION.  Just like our friendships are all about getting to know; interesting conversations; what do you think about...; and all the INTIMACIES each other, so it is with God.  Jesus has revealed all this about God and in so doing now makes 11 new friends.  That we might be God's FRIENDS: chosen, elected, sacrificed for, and revealed to blows my mind.  I can see how our critics can't get over it either. Whether you are a jaw-dropped believer, or a critic, I thank you for listening and considering.  Subscribe on Spotify or google podcasts.  www.bewithme.us

Full disclosure: I recorded this at 4:30am when my head was full of frustration and my heart was very heavy. But I needed you to know. You CANNOT give up. You CANNOT stop asking questions. You CANNOT stop fighting. No matter how amazing your medical team is. It's not their life, it's yours. So it's up to you... and that is a heavy burden to carry sometimes. I cried the whole day before I recorded this because of the anger and frustration. It's never easy to fight this fight, because you feel like crap and are exhausted ALL THE TIME already. I feel you my friend. So if you need help. If you need tips, tricks, or just someone to tell you it's not in your head and don't give up. I'm here. You aren't alone.

Stuck is a term used by so many of us in so many ways but it is a universal feeling of not making progress, not moving forward, not being able to make your tomorrow look different from today.What can be frustrating for you is when you know you’re stuck yet somehow you’re unable to make the shift you would like to see for yourself. In this episode, we want to talk with you about who is keeping you stuck, yes I said who, because ladies, your growth can trigger so many emotions within others and we want to bring awareness to it and share ideas on how to navigate it.Addressing the WHO that’s keeping you stuck will not be easy. It requires an honestly about yourself with the relationships you have and how much control (consciously or subconsciously) you give these other relationships.It also ins't about blame. It’s about understanding the people you surround yourselves with, and how they are impacting and influencing your decisions. Why your Who keeps you stuck: They are threatened by you.They worry about how your changes will impact their livesThey are concerned for your well-being and become overprotectiveYour progress reflects on their lack of progress and makes them feel badWhat happens if you decide to get unstuck yet someone really important to you wants to hold you back? Learn how to negotiate with your WHO. Outline your negotiation plan: What do you want to ask for? What are you willing to accept as the lowest common denominator? Consider the objections Consider the worries, fears and concerns that can come up Think about how you can create comfort around those concerns Subscribe: Apple Podcasts / Spotify / Google Podcast / SticherEPISODE RESOURCESSAVE THE DATE / April 15th : Free Negotiating Masterclass Email Mimi at mimi@therestingmind.com to save your spot. Free Resources:Join Our Facebook Group Just Gen x Talking Business, Career + Life with Bold + Brave Women  The 8% Rule of Transformation Warning!

When someone asks you how you’re doing, do you always say, “oh, crazy busy?” If so, you aren’t alone.There are so many reasons why we answer this way, everything from your mindset and automated response to positioning your status in the group. Maybe there is an undertow of needing significance or maybe you’re just the type of person who takes on a lot and just likes to share all that’s going on. Whatever drives your need to wear busy as a badge we’re going to dive into it. In this episode, we’re going to take a look at why you’re really always so busy and show you that your life doesn’t always have to feel like you’re on the busy express. Society puts value and worth on being busy. A study by HBR shows people wearing a Bluetooth hands-free earpiece were considered a higher standard than those wearing headphones. Busy is an addiction, we’ve wired our brains to believe the busier we are the more successful we are. Busy can cover the truth of how we are really feeling. The busier we are the more we can pretend life is great. We have become a distracted generation. While our to-do lists aren’t any longer, the amount of concentration-time we can spend at once is VERY short. Tips to break the busy habit: Learn to pass the torch of being the one that everyone goes to for the answers Create a distraction-less environment, close social media, turn off alerts and your phone, close the door Think beyond your to-do list -- focus on what you are working on right in this moment.

Call my husband ambitious and people will envision a dapper, successful man who commands a room. Call me ambitious and people imagine a selfish woman who sacrifices her family for her job and isn’t very nice to boot.In this episode, we are going to explore the double standard around ambition and empower you to embrace who you are and step into the contribution you are here to make in the world.Ambition/n/: To strive, a strong desire to do or achieve something.Create your own mantra of what ambition is for you and OWN IT, SHOUT IT OUTDon’t apologize or make excuses for your ambition. Ambition isn't an either or scenario. You can be ambitious and have a family, and be very engaged in life, and be happy.Ambitious doesn't mean you give everything ELSE up in pursuit of success.Change your language around ambition, like Mindy Kaling says, “Why the F##K not me?” Challenge your own assumptions. What are your beliefs around ambition or climbing the corporate ladder? Reset your Ambition and your Money Mindset. It's ok to want money and success. Ambition doesn’t have to be limited to a corporate job, look at Julia Child -- she was ambitious about her passion for cooking.Subscribe: Apple Podcasts I Spotify I Google Podcast I SticherEPISODE RESOURCES: Join Our Facebook Group Just Gen x — The Resting MindWhy Not Me?, Mindy Kaling (book) Tory Burch: Ambition GuidebookArticles + Podcasts: Toxic People (podcast) When You Can Avoid Having a Difficult Conversations (podcast) What Working Girl Taught Me About Work (blog post) How Dare You Ask for a Promotion (blog post) Free Resources Warning!

Although you’ve listened to the podcast, joined our group and downloaded some free guides, you still haven’t taken the next step toward getting coached. You’re probably thinking a slew of things from, why would I need a coach to am I ready to be coached to how does coaching even work? In this episode, we are going to discuss the value of working with a coach to take your life and your career to the next level.“I thought coaching was about achieving your goals, I didn’t realize that it is less about the action and more about the mind. It all begins in your mind.”“The job of a coach is to give you the wings so you can fly.”“The beauty of coaching is we really get you to push yourself out of your comfort zone while still staying true to your authentic self. It’s not about throwing away your entire life and uprooting everything. It’s more about how do I morph and change and grow so I can expand myself, my expertise, my abilities, and become the woman I want to be.”“Only 19% of adults report being satisfied with their lives. I want to say, not on our watch.”“You don’t have to have the life that is status quo, that’s trudging along. You get to choose your life.”“You get to decide, you can create it. Little changes at a time and overtime things begin to shift in the right way.”“The reason why I became a coach is that I want to show people the possibilities they can create in their lives. I want to give them hope and possibility. I feel so strongly about that.”“Coaching is a vulnerable process.”Subscribe: Apple Podcasts I Spotify I Google Podcast I SticherEPISODE RESOURCES: Join Our Facebook Group Just Gen x — The Resting MindThe Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right by Atul Gawande Madeline Schwartz Coaching (Public Speaking Coach) Articles + Podcasts: Intake vs Action (podcast) Ruminating Anxiety (podcast) Free Resources Warning!

Throw away the New Year’s Resolutions, why bother. Only 8% of people who make resolutions keep them and see them through. Mimi and I are foregoing this tradition and instead, keeping up with one of our newer traditions that we want to share with you and hopefully have you adopt, choosing a word of the year.This week, we’re going to help you choose YOUR word of the year!The word of the year as a north star, your guiding light for how you want to show up and live your life. It really is about becoming intentional and deliberate about the choices you make based on your word. LIVING INTENTIONALLY: “Gen X Women aren’t intentional enough in our world, in our life in deciding what we want. It’s about deciding how you want to show up and what you want your life to look like. Too often, as Gen X women, we let life unfold. We do what we’ve always done, even if it doesn’t make us happy.”REEVALUATE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH TIME: “Take your time choosing the word of the year, don’t rush. Time is fluid, it is what you make it.”PUT IT INTO THE WORLD: “When you embody your word of the year the universe starts to align all of these things for you.”Mimi said, "I take my word of the year seriously.

How To Help Employees And Yourself With Money Problems Through our work with business owners, we have seen some who have had access to significant money.  Not all, but some. A few weeks ago I was on the phone with a business owner who has what some would consider to be “life-changing” money...meaning, he wouldn’t have to work anymore if he didn’t want to, and he still has at least half of his life left to live statistically. He has houses, boats, cars, toys, investments, commercial real estate, and access to a lot of other people who have the same. We talk frequently, but this one particular conversation he ended with, “it’s ain’t what everybody thinks it is”. When money becomes THE thing instead of just A thing, then EVERYthing changes. Lynne Twist wrote a great book entitled The Soul Of Money.  In her book, she writes of money, “Money alone does not guarantee a fulfilling life, and excessive amounts of money more often become an obstacle to it.” “Money is the most universally motivating, mischievous, miraculous, maligned, and misunderstood part of contemporary life.” “Money has only the power that we assign to it, and we have assigned it immense power.” How do we know when money has become THE thing? It was said this way of a rich person.  “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich person to enter into freedom.” Why can money be so dangerous?  Why is it warned against and yet lauded and cheered?  What’s our obsession with money?   SO WHAT’S BEHIND OUR OBSESSION WITH MONEY? It’s not the joy that money brings, it’s the fear that we might not have it. Scarcity. Twist calls scarcity a lie, and even goes on to define the lie as “the mindset that tells us we can never have enough and drives us to strive above all and against all for more and more.” Scarcity is not only a lie, but it thrives under the umbrella of three myths… Myth #1: There Is Not Enough To Go Around Like musical chairs...when the music stops, somebody will lose The truth is, there actually is enough to go around, although the systems to distribute may fall behind... the resources are there. Myth #2: More Is Better Twist said, “more is better is a chase with no end and a race without winners” All we have to do is evaluate our demeanor 24 hours AFTER opening Christmas presents.  Are we really happier? Myth #3 That’s Just The Way It Is... Stroll back to the perms and rat tails of 1986, Bruce Hornsby and the Range Reflecting back on Civil Rights and the gap between rich and poor they sang over and over “That’s Just The Way It Is...something will never change” Can you imagine telling MLK Jr or John Lewis…”that’s just the way it is” Martin Luther The Reformer Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill Rosa Parks Oprah Winfrey Chimamanda Adichie The boy who harnessed the wind Ema and Tofunmi Solako “Awe, but don’t you believe it” You CANNOT believe these myths It will rob you of your skillset It will rob you of your soul It will rob you of the gift that you have to share with the rest of us...when you BUY IN to a mind of scarcity, you buy yourself a pair of mental and emotional handcuffs You’re bound, limited, stuck, unnecessarily handicapped How can you help employees with money problems?  Train them about the myths of money.  Embrace the mindset of sufficiency and abundance, and live your own life in a way that shows that money is not an obsession, but a tool for generosity!

Can I see a show of hands real quick? How many of you out there reading have set up a single email to deliver your free download and have called it an email sequence? My guess is that more than one of your raised your hand. But the reality is that it takes 8 times or more for the human brain to absorb information. Meaning, if you aren't staying in front of your leads at least 8 times, they have already forgotten about you. In this week's Feed U Podcast episode, I talk about the 3 most important email sequences you can create in your business.  You can tune into the entire episode here. Before you start to worry . . . These sequences are important, but, they don't all have to be set up right this minute.  I know you have a business to run and sometimes marketing takes a back burner.  In the episode, I go into detail about each sequence.  I encourage you to choose which one you think will have the biggest impact on your business today and start there. Without further ado, here's the short version of those email sequences: 1. The Nurture Sequence This is the sequence that is your "hey, good to know you" sequence.  It's your opportunity to build the relationship, gain trust, and move that need subscriber into a paid product. You CANNOT do that in one email. It will take some insight into your customer and also some ingenuity.  This is critical if you are growing your list and trying to convert new leads into customers.  Also, leads shouldn't drop off into oblivion after this sequence, strategize where they can go next. 2. The Re-Engagement (break up) Sequence I talk quite in-depth about the mindset around the break-up sequence in Episode 108, but here's the dealio.  If you have peeps on your list that aren't opening or engaging with your emails, you are paying for those peeps.  Regardless of what you send them.  If they aren't interested, let them go and make room for the people who DO want to hear from you. Holding onto subscribers for vanity is not helping your business. It is MUCH better to have a list of leads than it is to have a list of emails who never buy from you. 3. Cart Abandon Sequence I  lay down some serious stats in this piece of the episode regarding conversion.  >>>SNEAK PEAK

What is Connection?When I talk about connecting with your teen, I'm talking about YOU building YOUR relationship with them.You CANNOT control how your teen feels about you! You can do everything "right," only to have them hate and despise you. Connection is all about YOU controlling YOU and the things within YOUR control. How do you feel about your teen?How do you treat your teen, even when they are miserably difficult?Why Is Connecting Where They Are SO IMPORTANT!?When we try to change our teens, or we try to connect with them where we want them to be, we are trying to connect with someone who doesn't even exist. When we spend time wishing our teens was more respectful, more studious, more thoughtful, more kind, more clean, less lazy, less anxious, whatever . . . . . . We're try to connect with a different teen than the one that actually exists. When we connect with our teen where they are, it shows them that they ARE good enough, that we love them no matter what, and that we are trying to understand. 4 Keys for a Rock Solid Relationship?Access the FREE 15 minute Video Teen Relationship Tune-Up at:BenPughCoaching.com/Teen-Relationship/Commit to LoveRespect THEIR ProcessStop trying to control/fix them.

Josh has some great convictions and insight on our rights and preferences as leaders working for the Kingdom of God. We will also be sitting down with Connor Grubbs, a small group leader at the university of Virginia.

Most modern economists (ie; professional sophists) unfortunately don’t understand entrepreneurs, have never run a business, nor been in a position of significant responsibility in a business and therefore have the unfortunate audacity to perpetuate the moronic concept that businesses, business owners & capitalist merely exist to “take advantage of their customers”. This is incredibly naive, short sighted and reinforces why modern economics is completely OUT OF TOUCH with reality. Entrepreneurs are like the stems cells of the economic body. They are crucial, whereas these economists (the modern & keynesian types who don’t understand logical consistency or sound philosophies) are useless leeches who try to apply mathematical models to that which you cannot model. In this video I use the example of a forest, and lumber to think about what capital & capitalism actually means in the context of the entrepreneur and the incentives in a FREE MARKET who’s cornerstone is PRIVATE property rights When it’s your asset, you don’t go and rip it all up unless you’re a moron, who will wind up ruining himself, and that is the self correcting mechanism that a free market organically includes, and which moron economists think they have to somehow dictate or decree. Pubic = no idea how much is needed, if it’s even needed. Blind & stupid. Public + Private = raping & piligaing Private = YOU GIVE A SHIT. And if you do not, you ruin yourself. Ta-daaaaaa. You CANNOT have capitalism with public property or central planning. THAT is why it’s failed so far. When you mix up the incentives - you screw it all up. It devolves into madness. The cancer that is collectivism will eat up the organic structure that is capitalism. You need a mechanism to take the power away from the state. And this is why #BitcoinFixesThis.

Getting a match on 401(K) contributions is a fantastic opportunity, not to be missed. You CANNOT get that kind of guaranteed, immediate return anywhere else. Is there ever a time that we should NOT be taking advantage of the match? Listen as Tim Stearns discusses this topic and more on this week’s episode.

How do you define courage? When you ask for boldness, what is it you picture needing it for?Is it to speak in front of others? To worship without worrying about how others perceive you? Is it moving across the world or facing the person next to you? If you HAD the courage, then what would you do?So many women desire to be courageous. Many want to be more bold, more confident, self-assured, brave, daring, fearless, fierce, strong, valiant, and tenacious. Juxtapose this against the ongoing challenges of fear, anxiety, anxiousness, depression, worry, and insecurity. The reality of just how much we’re struggling with it is conspicuous; there are thousands of books, messages and programs available with the intent of assisting women to look better, speak better, act better, get better, and feel better about themselves. Is when we think of courage, is what we’re really after, the absence of fear? As I (Barbara) was thinking about how I would define courage, what I view as courageous, what in my own life demanded the most courage, I was surprised at what I settled in on because frankly I lived in this state of fear for so long, so many things, everyday things which to many others, they find common, or which come easily. We tend to think the opposite of, antithesis of, antonym of fear is courage, confidence, independence, or bravery. As if only I could gain those things, I would no longer be or live afraid. So the verdict for me is this, what took the most courage in my life was to receive, accept, and live loved, as if I am loved.The truth is the inverse of fear isn’t courage, it’s love. God’s love was the only fear-wrecking force powerful enough to overcome what I learned later was a spirit of fear. God does not give us a spirit of fear or timidity, but of power, love, and a sound mind. Over and over the word of God tells us to not fear and to not be afraid, do not be terrified because of them, He will never leave us or forsake us. But that can only truly occur, cessation of fearing, having true courage, and is only possible when God is with us and after Christ indwells us by the Holy Spirit; now driving out fear. It's God’s amazing love which sets me free from debilitating fear and is ultimately the overcoming power which I abide, move, and have my being today. 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

  This episode is sponsored by SHUG THE DUG PRODUCTIONS   Hello and welcome to Film Pro Productivity, the podcast that helps film professionals and other creatives to live a more focused, effective and HAPPY life. My name is Carter Ferguson and this is EPISODE 43 – THE LAW OF SUCCESS IN 16 LESSONS: PART 4   So yes, this is the fourth part of my series on Napoleon Hill’s powerful book and if you’ve not yet heard the previous parts then I’d strongly advise you to go back and check out episodes 40 through 42 first before listening to this one. My aim is to give you a fleeting glimpse of the power that lies within the book ad to open your mind to the possibilities that lie within its pages.   Now I won’t always identify sections of quoted text within this episode purely for streamlining purposes, but much of the content is my interpretation or direct quotation of NAPOLEON HILL. The main change I make is in neutralising the gender every now and again because I want to make the lessons as accessible and relevant for today’s audience as Hill intended it to be in 1928. Clothes and manners do not make the man; but when he is made, they greatly improve his appearance. Arthur Ashe UNQUOTE WHATEVER THE MIND CAN CONCEIVE AND BELIEVE THE MIND CAN ACHIEVE   This is a very big episode with a veritable Aladdin’s cave of new ideas, observations and advice. I would give this next lesson an episode of its own if I could but instead what I’d advise you to do is pause between the lessons or listen again to take it all in. I have augmented it with additional information from Hill’s 1954 film as it adds a lot to the equation which the original book leaves out. Hang on to your breeks and stand by. This is…   LESSON 10 – A PLEASING PERSONALITY: Here, Hill encourages us to arrange the outward appearance through which the nature of our personality is expressed, SO THAT IT WILL ATTRACT AND NOT REPEL. He wants us to realise that our personalities can become what he calls master salesmen working on our behalf. If we look at successful people and wonder how they managed it, but overlook the importance of analyzing their methods and the price they had to pay in careful, well-organized preparation and presentation - then we are NOT seeing the full picture.   Hill kicks all this off by describing PERSONALITY as the sum of our characteristics and appearances which distinguish us from all others. The clothes we wear, the lines on our face, the tone of our voice and the thoughts we think ALL CONSTITUTE PARTS OF OUR PERSONALITY and by far the most important part of our personality - is the part that is not visible - OUR CHARACTER.   Whether your personality is attractive or not, of course, is another matter. Italian designer Alessandro Michele says “The way you dress is an expression of your personality.” And that’s yet another point that Hill makes in this chapter. He says the same thing my mum did when I was going for a job interview or meeting someone for the first time, that people form first impressions of you from your outward appearance. I highlight this here as a reminder to us all, that things like this matter, maybe not TO YOU, but to the people you meet and work with. Whether you like it or not, if you want to increase your chances of being successful you can start by dressing in a way that attracts and doesn’t repel success. This doesn’t have to be a suit and tie of course, just appropriately for the world in which you live and work, and thinking about what would be most likely to bring you success in that environment.   Hill touches on this topic in his lesson on enthusiasm, where he talks about being able to wear WEAR NICE CLOTHES and how it will make you feel better and be more enthusiastic. There he explains that IF YOU LOOK LIKE A MILLION BUCKS, YOU'LL FEEL LIKE A MILLION BUCKS, and you will quite likely FIND YOURSELF AROUND A MILLION BUCKS. The opposite is also true, of course, and this is to be avoided. I love these little, but incredibly telling, observations and this book is full of them.   He takes the time to talk about elements of success that no one would tell you to your face and so next he goes into personal hygene. YOU SIMPLY WON’T BE SUCCESSFUL IF YOU SMELL LIKE A RATS BACKSIDE. Wash yourself, wear deodorant, brush your teeth, use mouthwash and if you know you have a problem with sweat or bad breath or whatever - carry the things you need to stay clean and smell good with you. Whether you like it or not, and none of us particularly like it, you also need to regularly attend the dentist. Knowing your teeth are cared for and that problems with them are fixed, gives you much increased confidence. That confidence will be the key for you to open more doors to success. Ya know what I do almost every day? I wash. Personal hygiene is part of the package with me. Jim Carrey UNQUOTE Hill devotes a considerable amount of page space to something I’ve only vaguely ever thought about - the art of SHAKING HANDS. He believed that it forms an important part of our personality and points out that, like so many other things outlined here, it is an art which can be cultivated. Every trait which goes into your personality, he explains, is under your control and you can improve it so it will be whatever you want it to be.   Helen Keller was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. Touch to her was a truly vital sense. She said – “The hands of those I meet are dumbly eloquent to me. The touch of some hands is an impertinence. I have met people so empty of joy, that when I clasped their frosty finger-tips, it seemed as if I were shaking hands with a northeast storm. Others there are whose hands have sunbeams in them, so that their grasp warms my heart. It may be only the clinging touch of a child's hand; but there is as much potential sunshine in it for me as there is in a loving glance for others. A hearty handshake or a friendly letter gives me genuine pleasure.” I have occasionally shaken someone’s hand only to feel it collapse under my light but firm grip. I describe such handshakes as fish-fingers which amuses me greatly but I admit it leaves me with a feeling of discomfort with the person who’s squishy fish finger hand I have just shaken. Hill explains his feelings on this one as follows, “ If there is anything which leaves me flat and unfavourably impressed when I'm introduced it's an extended hand which feels like a piece of cold ham”. There’s also the hand crusher, the person that catches you unexpectedly in an iron like grip that breaks bones. I looked this up on google. Littlethings.com says The Crusher is a handshake that is all about power and aggression.   Shaking hands is a lost art of prosperity which is surely worth a little of our twenty-first-century consideration. Napoleon Hill says, in general, that you should make your handshake firm and vibrant and that if you merely permit the other person to shake your limp, cold, lifeless hand, you are displaying what constitutes a negative personality. And I’m very well aware that today’s society would encourage us to dismiss all this other stuff because it’s what’s inside that counts, OUR CHARACTER, but we would be remiss to not consider the outer elements through which others will perceive and judge us as this is, after all, a series of lectures about SUCCESS. What’s inside is not the only thing that counts. It just counts more than anything else…   And so again Hill gives examples in this chapter of how external appearances, manners, a firm handshake or a gentle and mesmerizing voice when presented by salespeople have won him over and how if these salespeople with pleasing personalities were to visit him again he would happily sit down and listen for three-quarters of an hour enjoying their company. I’ve certainly experienced this myself. He gives examples so that we can learn from them and cultivate our own personality traits. This is something which he covers too in Lesson 7 Enthusiasm. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves to be perfect, we should die. Albert Camus UNQUOTE I’ll post a youtube link in the show notes to show a great example of personality in sales so go check it out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EuA6hvDjg0&t=44s   Hill warns that cheap flattery has just the opposite effect. It repels instead of attracting. Analyze anone, he says, WHO DOES NOT HAVE A PLEASING PERSONALITY and you will find lacking in the faculties of Imagination and co-operation.   This lesson emphasizes at length the importance of making it your business to take a keen interest in other people and their work, to cultivate and work on your personality, and to be aware of your outward appearance. This is simply not something that is discussed these days, other than perhaps a mother nagging a child about looking smart, but I find it all quite intriguing as if we can consider it when others do not, it will give us the edge we may need to achieve success.   This year, for the first time ever, I had shirts and hoodies made up with fightdirector.com and Get Carter on them. I used to joke about having to prove myself on film sets on which I don’t know many people, that I should maybe have my CV printed on my T Shirt or a picture of me holding our Cineworld Audience Award at the BAFTAS, as some people try to sideline you as soon as meet you as they go through life offering up little or no respect to others. I’ve noticed now that things have changed. People ask me for my number far more often and proving myself to be competent when meeting new crews seems no longer to be a problem. It’s a fascinating subject this, and that’s why I’m giving it a bit more time.   Hill, himself, commits considerable time to character building through rigid self-discipline, self-control and autosuggestion. He provides a formula for character building and lists the factors that make a good personality. Here are just a few. · Your mental attitude is the most important trait of your personality. This is a trait with which you attract people to you and cause them to like you or repel them and cause them to dislike you. This is something Hill went into earlier on in the Enthusiasm lesson and which permeates the whole book. · The next most important trait of your personality consists of your flexibility of your mental attitude or your lack of it. If you have flexibility you adjust yourself to all the circumstances without losing your composure or allowing yourself to become irritable or angry. This is one I find easier to adopt the older I get. It’s a difficult skill to master though and I am still a novice. Hill explains here that you cannot control the actions of other people which might justify you becoming irritated by them but YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR REACTION to all such circumstances by exercising your trait of flexibility. · The third most important trait of a pleasing personality is the ability to control and direct your enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is one of the means by which you can give force to your words but you must be able to turn it on or off at will as definitely as you can turn on and off the water at the tap. Uncontrolled enthusiasm often makes people boresome. It also allows others to enter and influence you in ways you do not wish to be influenced. That’s an interesting observation – tagged in almost as a throwaway. Don’t get carried away by your enthusiasm and find yourself committed to another’s purpose. Stay on Target. Remember your DEFINITE CHIEF AIM. · The fourth most important trait of a pleasing personality is SINCERITY OF PURPOSE. The person who is not sincere with others is soon detected and rejected because no one is attracted to the person who deceives others. Possibly my favourite quote of Hill’s is this “Sincerity is one quality of character which cannot be successfully faked: Not even by the most astute rascal or the most efficient actor.”   I’ll end with a list of DESTRUCTIVE HABITS which Hill explains will limit our success. · One of the most destructive habits which make one's personality objectionable is that of BREAKING IN AND RUNNING AWAY WITH THE CONVERSATION when others are speaking. · Next, SARCASM expressed by insinuations and wisecracks which are not so wise is near the head of the list of habits which you give you a negative personality · and third VANITY expressed by either words or actions is sure to make one unpopular. · Fourth, INDIFFERENCE in listening while others are speaking is sure to be noticed and resented. It is more profitable to be a good listener than it is to be a good talker because you are always apt to learn something while listening to others but never will learn anything from hearing yourself. · Five. The attempt to FLATTER WHERE FLATTERY IS OBVIOUSLY NOT DESERVED will bring quick resentment from others and if they are wise that the flatterer wants something they will ensure perhaps you should not get it. · Six. The habit of FINDING FAULT WITH THE WORLD AT LARGE AND PEOPLE IN GENERAL is never very popular habit and it is no part of a pleasing personality. It is far better to direct conversation to the circumstances and things which are right than to complain of those which one believes to be wrong. · Seven. One of the very worst habits is that of OPENLY AND DIRECTLY CHALLENGING THOSE WITH WHOM ONE MAY NOT AGREE, where there is no obvious reason for doing so, except the desire to be on the opposite side. Oh I know a few people that just can’t resist an argument and it’s something on which today’s internet fed populace just thrives. For me it just feels like a waste of mental energy. Energy that can be placed elsewhere - into more positive action. · …and Eight. The habit of VOLUNTEERING UNSOLICITED ADVICE to others who have not requested it can make one an intolerable bore. Free advice usually is considered to be worth just what it costs - which is nothing but the patience with which to listen to it · …and Nine THE HABIT OF SPEAKING OF ONE'S PHYSICAL AILMENTS and personal problems may be tolerated by others but this habit will never make one welcome or pleasing. · Ten. The habit of ENDEAVORING TO CONVEY AN IMPRESSION OF SUPERIORITY through the use of words and topics unfamiliar to others is a sure fire destroyer of popularity. · 11 ENVY OF THOSE WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL is a trait which destroys a pleasing personality. The truly great men and women have all been known to be generous, sympathetic and joyous in connection with the good fortunes of others. · Twelve. SLOVENLINESS - in body posture and in clothing never attract but always repels others. Carelessness in body courage and posture is immediately traceable to a negative mental attitude. OK, I must move on, but I’ll end with this. Hill says that before you can make full use of the MASTER KEY TO SUCCESS you will need to make your personality pleasing. This will require courage on your part and honesty with yourself. A PLEASING PERSONALITY STANDS NEAR THE HEAD OF THE LIST OF ASSETS WHICH WILL MAKE ONE TRULY RICH. WHATEVER THE MIND CAN CONCEIVE AND BELIEVE THE MIND CAN ACHIEVE. Accuracy builds credibility. Jim Rohn UNQUOTE LESSON 11 - ACCURATE THOUGHT: In this lesson we learn to sort "facts" from "information", and use AUTO-SUGGESTION in conjunction with FOCUSED THOUGHT. In a gun fight... Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything. You need to take your time in a hurry. Wyatt Earp UNQUOTE Hill straight off the bat warns us that unless you study this lesson with an open mind, you will miss the very key-stone to the arch of this course, and without this stone, you can never complete your Temple of Success. I’d add too that without accurate thought you’re going nowhere.   This is not WOOLY THOUGHT or BELIEF IN YOUR OWN HYPE or GULLIBLE THOUGHT. It’s ACCURATE THOUGHT and it involves two fundamentals which all who indulge in it must observe. · First, to think accurately you must separate facts from mere information. There is much "information" available to you that is not based upon facts. Don’t believe everything you hear on the internet, ABRAHAM LINCOLN, UNQUOTE · Second, you must separate facts into two classes; the IMPORTANT and the UNIMPORTANT, or, the RELEVANT and the IRRELEVANT. Only by so doing can you think clearly. So… · All facts which will aid you to any extent whatsoever in the attainment of your definite chief aim are important and relevant; · All that you cannot use are unimportant and irrelevant. I’ve covered PRIORITISING before many times with things like the focus funnel and the Eisenhower matrix so this shouldn’t be anything new to the regular listener. Focusing on the stuff that really matters is encapsulated very well in that quote of Peter Drucker who says “It is fundamentally the confusion between effectiveness and efficiency that stands between doing the right things and doing things right. There is surely nothing quite so useless as doing with great efficiency that which should not be done at all.” I have given this quote before as it’s a terrific pointer in the world of productivity.   The phrase WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER possibly originates here in The Law Of Success where Hill writes in regard to successful people that “Far from working harder than you, they are perhaps working less and with greater ease by virtue of their having learned the secret of separating the important facts from the unimportant”   Hill goes on to talk about other factors in ACCURATE THINKING as he talks about idle gossip and believing what one reads in the papers. This is so true about today’s world of FAKE NEWS and INTERNET FACTS that it could have been written this morning. He warns us too to accept that loose unsound opinions van be mistaken for accurate thinking but that most opinions are without value because they are based on bias, prejudice, intolerance, guesswork, hearsay evidence and out-and-out ignorance.   He goes on “the ACCURATE THINKER will not accept as such all that he sees and hears for the reason that it constitutes the rocks and reefs on which so many people flounder and go down to defeat in a bottomless ocean of false conclusions.”   Hill who trained as a lawyer talks of A principle called “the law of evidence; the object of this law is to get at the facts. Any judge can proceed with justice to all concerned if they have the facts upon which to base their judgment, but they may play havoc with innocent people if they circumvent the law of evidence and reach a conclusion or judgment that is based upon hearsay information.”   Hill points out that “The more successful a person is the less they are inclined to express wild unjustified opinions about anything – He warns us that often people he refers to as DRIFTERS or FAILURES have an assortment of opinions on about everything you can imagine”   In Hill’s 1954 address he gives us a simple rule to help us avoid being misled by unsound opinions expressed by other people. When you hear someone make a statement which your reason cannot accept or which you question or should for safety sake question for any reason whatsoever, ask this simple forward question. HOW DO YOU KNOW? Stand firm on that question and either force the speaker to identify the source from which he got the information he is endeavouring to pass on as facts or reject the statement entirely as if it had not been made. Do this no matter who is speaking or what may be his reputation for truth and veracity. Accuracy is twin brother to honesty, and inaccuracy to dishonesty. Nathaniel Hawthorne UNQUOTE Hill warns us too that “…it is true that most thinking of today, far from being accurate, is based upon the sole foundation of expediency. It is amazing how many people there are who are "honest" when it is profitable to them, but find myriads of facts to justify themselves in following a dishonest course when that course seems to be more profitable or advantageous.” An example of this may be the directors of companies that give themselves massive bonuses just before their companies collapse, leaving their former employees crying in the streets. Some, usually fair people, will simply lie through their teeth if it is advantageous to them to do so. Thomas Jefferson reminds us all “Whenever you do a thing, act as if all the world were watching.” So remember that the accurate thinker deals with facts, regardless of how they affect his own interests, for he knows that ultimately this policy will bring him out on top, in full possession of the object of his definite chief aim in life.   Other points of interest within this lesson include: · If one man slanders another, his remarks should be accepted, if of any weight at all, with at least a grain of the proverbial salt of caution; for it is a common human tendency for men to find nothing but evil in those whom they do not like. · The moment a man or a woman begins to assume leadership in any walk of life, the slanderers begin to circulate "rumors" and subtle whisperings reflecting upon his or her character. The slanderers killed both Harding and Wilson, he says - murdered them with vicious lies. They did the same to Lincoln, only in a somewhat more spectacular manner, by inciting a fanatic to hasten his death with a bullet. This was written 90 odd years ago remember… Could have been written yesterday. · Here again and throughout the book, Hill goes into a long section about auto suggestion, which I briefly touched upon before. It’s a valuable thing. It uses what we know perhaps as VISUALISATION and AFFIRMATIONS to move us towards our DEFINITE CHIEF AIM. As a reminder - Write out a clear, concise statement of that which you intend to accomplish, as your definite chief aim, covering a period of, let us say, the next five years. Make at least two copies of your statement, one to be placed where you can read it several times a day, while you are at work, and the other to be placed in the room where you sleep, where it can be read several times each evening before you go to sleep and just after you arise in the morning. This is how Hill introduced us to the power of auto-suggestion on our own minds at the start of the book. · As an accurate thinker, it is both your privilege and your duty to avail yourself of facts, even though you must go out of your way to get them. If you permit yourself to be swayed to and fro by all manner of information that comes to your attention, you will never become an accurate thinker; AND IF YOU DO NOT THINK ACCURATELY, YOU CANNOT be sure of attaining your DEFINITE CHIEF AIM in life. Finally, I believe that this quote sums up much of the lesson in one sentence – let it guide you "I do not believe I can afford to deceive others - I know I cannot afford to deceive myself!" This must be the motto of the accurate thinker. Don't believe the hype. Wyclef Jean UNQUOTE WHATEVER THE MIND CAN CONCEIVE AND BELIEVE THE MIND CAN ACHIEVE “One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.” Tony Robbins UNQUOTE LESSON 12 - CONCENTRATION: Learn to fix your attention on a given subject, at will, for whatever length of time you choose, and you will have learned the secret passage-way to power and plenty! THIS IS CONCENTRATION!   The dictionary defines concentration as “the action or power of focusing all one's attention.” but Hill takes this much further and attributes CONCENTRATION to be what he calls THE MAGIC KEY OF SUCCESS. “Concentration, in the sense in which it is used here, means the ability, through fixed habit and practice, to keep your mind on one subject until you have thoroughly familiarized yourself with and mastered it. It means the ability to control your attention and focus it on a given problem until you have solved it.”   Hill devotes a considerable amount of time in this lesson to environment, to habits, and to memory. I won’t go into all of this but it’s an interesting reading nonetheless. I’d just say on the topic of environment though that when my office or home is untidy, it is usually representative of the state of my mind. Getting on top of housework or office tasks, in the sense of cleaning up your environment, will, in the end, make you more productive. You can't break a bad habit by throwing it out the window. You've got to walk it slowly down the stairs. Mark Twain UNQUOTE Defined another way, Hill’s CONCENTRATION is the ability to THROW OFF THE EFFECTS OF BAD HABITS, and the POWER TO BUILD NEW HABITS THAT ARE MORE TO YOUR LIKING. It means COMPLETE SELF-MASTERY. · The ability to think as you wish to think; · The ability to control your thoughts and direct them to a definite end; · And the ability to organize your knowledge into a plan of action that is sound and workable. As a productivity podcaster this is a virtual snapshot of probably about 40 or 50% of all of the advice that’s out there about getting things done.   For Napoleon Hill “DESIRE” is the starting point of all achievement and he states that AMBITION and DESIRE are the chief factors which enter into the act of successful concentration. Without them, he says, the Magic Key, or CONCENTRATION, is useless.   And he says we must not underestimate the power of CONCENTRATION just because it did not come clothed in mysticism or because it is described in simple language. All great truths are simple in final analysis, and easily understood; if they are not they are not great truths.   Use this Magic Key with intelligence, and only for the attainment of worthy ends, and it will bring you enduring happiness and success. Forget the mistakes you have made and the failures you have experienced. Quit living in the past, for do you not know that your yesterdays never return? Start all over again, if your previous efforts have not turned out well, and make your next five or ten years tell a story of success that will satisfy your most lofty ambitions. Make a name for yourself and render the world a great service, through AMBITION, DESIRE and CONCENTRATED EFFORT!   You can do it if you BELIEVE you can!   Most people lack ambition, and desire nothing in particular, but if your DESIRE is strong and YOUR AMBITION within reason the MAGIC KEY OF CONCENTRATION will help you attain it.   No unbeliever, Hill warns us though, ever enjoyed the benefits of the Magic Key.   Summing Up   So I’ve covered a lot of ground today and it’s but a drop in the ocean of the content of the book. Let me recap though.   · LESSON 10 – A PLEASING PERSONALITY: His advice is have one, and if you don’t have one, cultivate one. Mediocrity does not care if you are pleasant or not. Success does. · LESSON 11 - ACCURATE THOUGHT: Separate facts from mere information. There is much "information" available to you that is not based upon facts. Then separate facts into two classes; the IMPORTANT and the UNIMPORTANT, or, the RELEVANT and the IRRELEVANT. All facts which will aid you to any extent whatsoever in the attainment of your definite chief aim are important and relevant; All that you cannot use are unimportant and irrelevant. · LESSON 12 - CONCENTRATION: "Concentration is the act of focusing the mind upon a given desire until the ways and means for its realization have been worked out and successfully put into operation"   Call To Action   The easiest person to deceive is one's self. Edward Bulwer-Lytton UNQUOTE One of the many important points I covered today was about accurate thought - Don’t get bogged down in your own hype and don’t deceive yourself. If you have been failing to achieve success in something, I want you to answer this question. Why? Once you know this, you have a chance at solving the problem. That’s today’s call to action.   Ending   The next episode will be the penultimate in this series within series 3 about the LAW OF SUCCESS. I hope you’ll join me for more mind expanding lessons from Napoleon Hill’s incredible book. In the show notes this week I’m going to make available for download the audio from a film that Mr Hill made in 1954 – I’m not sure how though, but it will be there. If I can figure out the legalities of it I’ll make it available as part of the podcast too. By 1954 Hill had refined his laws of success quite considerably and it’s an interesting listen.   Lastly I’d like to thank James at Shug The Dug Productions for sponsoring the last two shows. It is very much appreciated.   It’s been another long one so let’s end now with a final thought from the late Stephen Keshi: People don't have to believe in you for you to succeed. Just work hard, and when you succeed, THEY WILL BELIEVE.

We've seen a bunch of comments and conversations over the last few days, surrounding the DJI Mavic Mini... And, as always, the misinformation doing the rounds is a little concerning. So, we've pulled together the top questions/comments we've seen surrounding the DJI Mavic Mini Drone / Flying Camera ( ;) ) and have answered them here, for anyone who is considering getting one or already has one on pre-order. 1) Requirements for operating the DJI Mavic Mini are the same in the UK, as they are for any other drone - you need to abide by the ANO (Air Navigation Order), which is broken down into an easily understandable format in the UK Drone Code (Link Below). 2) You CANNOT 'fly anywhere' in the UK with this drone; despite the DJI marketing... You still need to remain 150 metres away from Congested Areas, unless you're operating it commercially, in accordance with a Permission for Commercial Operations. 3) You'll need to stay a minimum of 50 metres away from Persons, Vessels, Vehicles and Structures, not under your control, despite it being under 250g. 4) You STILL need a PfCO or a Permission for Commercial Operation from the UK CAA, in order to be able to fly this drone for commercial gain, at the moment, in the United Kingdom. 5) You still need to get permission from the appropriate authority if you want to fly inside a Flight Restriction Zone ( FRZ ). 6) You will be exempt from the requirement to undertake the DMARES in the UK - BUT ONLY IF you use the DJI Mavic Mini in it's 'naked' form... Put the stickers on, prop guards etc and you'll be over 250g and thus, YOU WILL HAVE TO REGISTER AS A DRONE OPERATOR. ***Please Note - I messed up in the excitement of shooting the video, sorry! The drone weighs 249g WITH the larger battery installed and 199g with the smaller battery installed...*** 7) You will still need to register, even under 249g IF and WHEN we switch over to the EASA regulations in June 2020... As this drone has a camera.

In 12 fiercely funny, mind-expanding chapters, Richard Dawkins explains how the natural world arose without a designer — the improbability and beauty of the “bottom-up programming” that engineers an embryo or a flock of starlings — and challenges head-on some of the most basic assumptions made by the world’s religions.   In this wide-ranging conversation Shermer and Dawkins discuss: how Outgrowing God encapsulates his life’s work in two broad areas: (1) science, reason, and evolution theory; (2) God, Religion, and Faith. A “Dawkins 101” book and a perfect gift to friends and family. his commitment to the truth, as best explained by science. Is the Bible a “Good Book”? Is adhering to a religion necessary, or even likely, to make people good to one another? why religion is over-determined separating religion from God beliefs Is religion and belief in God an evolutionary adaptation or a byproduct (or both)? Why we don’t need God in order to be good How do we decide what is good? human nature: selfish/selfless, violent/peaceful, better angels/inner demons breaching the Is-Ought barrier the future of atheism career advice for young scientists and scholars getting courage from science the multiverse: “You Cannot be Serious!” Richard Dawkins is a fellow of the Royal Society and was the inaugural holder of the Simonyi Chair for the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University.

Barb Schlinker home of Your Home Sold Guaranteed* share the top 5 reasons why You CANNOT trust the accuracy of the Zillow Zestimate for your home's value. When you are thinking about selling your home, looking at the information on Zillow, like their Zestimate is a popular thing to do.1) Zillow is not looking at your Home’s Condition and Features. Here is an example:4715 Sourdough Place The Zillow “Zestimate” was $348,000. 3 Other AGENTS told the seller the home was worth $350,000. But I could see the updates and views and knew it would sell for more. We listed the home at $425,000. Right after we did that the Zillow Zestimate went to $411,000.I sold this home the first weekend for $427,000. If the Seller Believed the Other 3 agents and the Zillow Zestimate it could have cost them $77,000! Zillow posts a “Zestimate” Zillow does not know your home’s conditions, improvements or about the location.2) Zillow has little knowledge of your location or a lot of qualities. Mountain Views, Culd-e-sacs, Golf Courses, walking distance to schools can add value. Location is 70% of the buyer's purchase decision. 3) Zillow's Data if Often Inaccurate, 50% of Zillow’s revenue comes from real estate agents buying leads from Zillow. They don't even tell buyers a home had a contract. They just want buyers to call so they can sell leads to real estate agents like me. When they give comparable sales. Zillow does not always compare apples to apples in selecting which homes might be a good comparable to indicate a home's value.4) As the Market Shifts, Zillow’s Zestimate cannot keep of with rapid market changes like a rise in interest rates or seasonal changes. Their values could be over or under stated by thousands.5) The 5th and TOP reason your home's Zillow Zestimate may not be acurrate...Zillow Is Buying and Selling them for a profit! So they have positioned themselves as the "Gold Standard" for real estate values online, similar to a Kelley Blue Book for Real Estate. Yet, their are offering to buy homes and then they add a few minor updates and sell the homes for a profit - called 'flipping". So they tell the world your house is worth ....X or "Z". Zillow then makes offers to desperate sellers who must sell now. The benefit to that home seller is they get a quick cash sale. Oh and did I mention, Zillow does not charge a commission. But they do make offers on homes well below market value and they charge a 7% or more "SERVICE FEE". Its not a fair fight for a home owner who needs to sell their home. And, effectively, those home sellers are selling their homes to Wall Street investors. Selling your home to Zillow might work for home sellers who need a quick cash sale. But even our local investors will often pay more than Zillow for homes. The real numbers are that Zillow is only making offers on 2.4% of the home owners that present their home to Zillow for sale. Once Zillow obtains the contact information of motivated home sellers, they sell the leads to real estate agents for 35% of the commission. And Zillow has in their corporate mission statement to put real estate agents out of business! In Zillow's world the consumers do not need real estate agents. They believe all can be done online with their very powerful website. Time and time again we find cases where home sellers gave up tens of thousands of dollars of equity just for the Easy Button of a quick sale. A majority of real estate agents have the objective of getting home sellers the most amount of money when their home sells, not the least. And, I believe, at the end of the day, because the real estate industry has home seller's best interests at heart, the Real Estate Agents industry will be intact for years to come.If you like this video, please share, subscribe and like and I would l

Andrew and Michelle are launching a new mini-series on dental specialty. For this first episode, they aim to give hygienists the knowledge they need to help patients understand the importance and procedures related to endodontics. . Theodore (T.R.) Ravenel, DMD, is an endodontist and the assistant director of the postgraduate endodontic program for the Medical University of South Carolina’s College of Dental Medicine. Prior to taking up residence at MUSC, he worked for years in private practice. He’s a self-described “jack of all trades” and also works with Michelle at Our Lady of Mercy’s outreach program. In this episode, Dr. Ravenel gives us the detailed low-down on endodontic diagnosis, discusses how pulp inflammation occurs, and explains just exactly how a root canal is carried out.    EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Interview starts: 9:00 -Dr. Ravenel breaks down his step-by-step procedure for diagnosing endodontic issues. - The right and wrong way to use percussion on a tooth. - What is a “tooth sleuth,” and how do you use it? - The great degree of sensitivity with which patients are able to distinguish different kinds of pain. - The process for determining how inflammed a tooth’s pulp is. - What are the different symptoms for a cracked tooth vs. irreversible pulpitis? - What a tooth that’s sensitive only to heat and not cold can tell us about its pulp.  - How to perform an electric pulp test (EPT), and how accurate is it? - What hygienists can do to help dentists speed up the endodontic diagnostic process. - The role bacteria plays in inflammation and endodontic issues. - Theodore describes how a typical root canal procedure is carried out. - Why would a root canal need to be retreated? - What hygienists should—and should NOT—say to a patient to prepare them for their root canal procedure. - Which other kinds of inflammation get confused for pulpitis?   Thank you to our sponsor for this episode, and many of our episodes, Zirc! www.zirc.com Zirc believes in helping you work smarter, not harder through organization and tools that allow you to perform your job to the fullest!

If you ask most people, they will tell you that they think it is decidedly unhealthy. Why? Because they've heard it is linked to obesity, heart disease, and cancer in research so many times over the years that they just believe it is true. So when another "big" study out of Oxford University comes along in April 2019 linking red and processed meat consumption to bowel cancer, people get all up in arms about what they should be eating in their diet. Read about it below. A rasher of bacon a day 'ups cancer risk' While these claims about red meat and cancer certainly sound serious and valid, health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore says they really have no application to everyday human health. The kind of research used by the Oxford researchers (and most of nutritional healthy studies that come out) are observational and epidemiological ones of DATA, not actually looking at people in a randomized, controlled metabolic ward setting (the truly good science that means something to people). Listen to Jimmy expose the major flaws in this Oxford study and the ramifications of the continued release of bad science like this in this episode. For more JIMMY RANTS, check out all of his past episodes at JimmyRants.com. “When you eat red meat you get all of the amino acids that your body will ever need. Can you do that easily on a plant-based diet? NO. YOU CANNOT. The only food in the human diet that can give you that in one place is in animal-based foods.” — Jimmy Moore

This is the strict technical legal expression used to describe the ownership in “an estate in fee-simple in possession in a corporeal hereditament”. The word “seised” is used to express the “seisin or owner’s possession of a freehold property”; the phrase ‘in demesne’, or ‘in his demesne’, (in dominico suo) signifies that he’s seised as owner of the land itself, and not merely of the seigniory services; and the concluding words, ‘as of fee, import that he is seised of an estate of inheritance in fee-simple. Where the subject is incorporeal, or the estate expectant on a precedent freehold, the words ‘in his demesne are omitted. Source: (Co.

As the philospher Goethe wrote: “No man is more hopelessly enslaved than he who WRONGLY BELIEVES that he is free.”When your mind allows you to accept and understand that the United States, Great Brittan and the Vatican are Corporations which are nothing but fictional entities which have been placed in your mind, you will understand our slavery remains primarily because we believe in false fictions.The Illusion is MUCH larger than the irrefutable 30 points above, and the 30 points above are not even the tip of the tip of the iceberg. But it is, at least a starting point.

You CANNOT inherit the Kingdom of God with an over exaggerated feeling of self-importance. Take a few seats and be humble dear

You simply can't rely on your company to deliver all of the training, coaching and mentoring required for you to achieve massive success. You CANNOT. You must INVEST in yourself. Real money. Decide which areas of your game you need to improve and then hire a coach, immerse yourself in sales content, attend conferences, subscribe to ongoing learning/courses, learn from those who already play on the field on which you want to play. Lastly, you need to create a personal brand and not only that you need to build audience. Yes, the elite sellers have personal brands and leverage these brands to market themselves and grow their audience. The larger your audience, the more influence you have. The more people you can help, the more money you will make. LEARN to EARN, my friends. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dan-sixsmith/support

I frequently get interviewed by new content creators. The purpose of this episode is that EVERYTHING I show you is completely learnable and doable by YOU… Every Tuesday, I leave my morning open to go on anyone's show.   So, once a week, I just wake up, get ready, and check my calendar to see who's scheduled time for me to get on their show. I typically do two-three interviews every Tuesday, and I don't even care who with. It helps me: Keep connected with the audience Understand what peoples' questions are Understand who the other influencers-to-be, or current influencer are My calendar is pretty packed up, but if you want to book a slot, then go to interviewsteve.com. Recently, I had an amazing person set up a time with me. It was her first EVER show… and she just jumped in and asked me the MOST amazing questions. THE POWER OF PUBLISHING If you've listened to my podcasts at all and you've NEVER heard me say, “Everyone should publish!” I think you're probably lying. I say that all the time, and it's something that’s changed my life. I am massively convinced that if you want to increase your income, especially on the internet... The checklist is very simple: Step number one: Create some content Step number two: Keep offering people stuff Step number three: Keep getting attention Step number four: ...I really don't know whatever the steps are beyond that…. It's super simple, okay? Step number five: Just go back to number one. Truly, that's it! On a daily basis:  I create content I make sure that I offer something to somebody  just kinda keep getting attention for my business and what I do. The thing that always makes me MOST pumped is when somebody who’s just starting out sets up a time for me to get on their show. Currently, I’m a 2 Comma Club X Coach and a One Funnel Away Coach; I'm the guy that yells at everybody every day! I also have my own program, Offer Lab, I have another program in the MLM space. I spend a lot of time coaching... A constant theme that I push in EVERYTHING I do is that EVERYONE NEEDS TO PUBLISH. I can tell who’s MOST likely to have a successful funnel by whether or not they start publishing. Publishing is the safety net. It's the parachute for all the stuff. Frankly, you can stop listening to 80% of the tactics I teach you and just publish consistently, then come back to me in a year... and tell me that your life's not different! Seriously, it's that powerful. HOW TO START PUBLISHING I’m ALWAYS really pumped whenever somebody who's brand new comes on to interview me.... Because they’re just doin’ it! #success Recently, an amazing lady called Angela Clark jumped in and booked me for the first episode of her show. She’s created a podcast called Side Hustle Strategies, (which I think is a great name). Now, I wanna turn your attention to two things. Number one: She's just doin' it! Number two: Check out the types of questions that she's asking me - notice their simplicity. Not all interviewers are good, and she was very, very good. It’s one of my favorites interviews that I've done recently. When we were done, I asked, “Do you mind if share this on Sales Funnel Radio?” She said, “Yes, absolutely. Go for it.” I want you to see how awesome it is that Angela is just doin' it. I want to show you that YOU can do it too! About half the time, the person interviewing me is a newbie. Whether it’s for a new show, a blog, or whatever... I thought it'd be kinda cool capture one of 'em, toss it out here.   MY PUBLISHING STRATEGY Now, I wouldn’t be Steve Larsen if there wasn’t a strategy underneath my Tuesday morning interview sessions ;-) It’s helpful because I get interviewed all over the place... I've noticed when I'm being interviewed, I tend to dive into topics,  teachings, and strategies that I have a hard time replicating without somebody asking me questions. Here's what I'm getting at… If you have a hard time creating content or teaching what you do, stop asking yourself for answers. Don't let EVERYTHING come from your own head. Instead, get someone to ask YOU a whole bunch of questions. Let them pull the answers out of you… Then all you have to do is delete all their questions and BOOM! You have a course… Or BOOM! You got the podcast. It's one of the reasons why I ask so many questions in my group, The Science of Selling Online; I'm trying to see where the holes are. In my head, there's a model, there's a picture, and a framework, but I need to know where the questions are.   DUPLICATE YOUR TIMEI'm super proud to just have a whole bunch of people who’ve actually started their shows. It doesn’t matter whether you’re publishing on a: Podcast Blog Facebook YouTube Whatever platform you publish on, I don't care, as long as you’re actively talking, because... If you're NOT speaking, no one knows you exist. You WILL BUY your customer, whether it's with your time or your money. If you're like, “Stephen, I don't have money for ads.” Well, then you better be willing to spend some time! One of the best ways I know to duplicate time is to create content. I have to do it once, and it lives on the internet forever. Between my two shows, I’ve got almost 400 episodes now... which is crazy! That's a lot of hooks pulling people into my world and adding value for my entire life. If you're NOT willing to spend money, BE willing to spend time. It would suck to walk around the street and be like, “Hey, can I tell you my recent podcast episode?”  I'd rather duplicate my time by creating content. One of the biggest hacks of the game, create content, make offers to people consistently, and that's kind of it. Gain attention, there you go, there's the hack, there's the BIG SECRET... and that's what I'm doing. One of the easiest ways to buy your customers and make a real asset on the internet is by consistently publishing. Now, let's cut over to Angela's interview with Side Hustle Strategies. If you like what she's asking, go say hi to her, and thank her as well. AND REMEMBER… you don’t need credentials to get started... Just a willingness to jump!   SIDE HUSTLE STRATEGIES Angela: Alright, so I know you from ClickFunnels fame, Sales Funnel Radio, Secret MLM Hacks. So, for those who don't know you, can you tell us a little bit about your story? Steve: Yeah, totally. I was newly married... seven years ago. I call myself the seven-year overnight success story.   I failed my face off in tons of business attempts. My wife and I could barely feed ourselves, and life was really intense for a while. I know a lot of people are still in that sort of scenario. It was a college town, so no one was getting jobs for more than like three dollars an hour. It was a new town we moved to, we didn't know many people. She didn't have a job, and I couldn't get a job. It was crazy. There were more students than there were jobs. I was like, “We're gonna die. I gotta figure out a way to make money.” I asked my dad to float us some cash while we waited for some student loans to come in... just so we could just have like a base, right? Then I was gonna go run hard and try and make some more money some other way and thankfully, he's on the phone and he goes, “Son, No. If I give you this money you will not exhaust the resources you didn't know you had.” It was really intense. It was very wise of him to say that to me, though. I had the fire in the gut to provide that I think most people just fail to ever light. And when you have that fire, little details that you otherwise get stuck on, they don't really matter as much. How am I gonna figure this out? Doesn't matter! Do I need to know that? No, run! And so, it gave me this lens of action of just move versus getting focused and distracted by all these other things. So, I started trying all these businesses and none of them were working. I was spending money, that frankly, we really didn't have trying to make something just kick off. Over three and a half years, four years, I went through 12 business attempts and they all failed or kinda broke even. Each time, though, I was learning some stuff. It was very valuable stuff. I was in college for marketing, business, and entrepreneurship... and I started learning MORE in these attempts than what I was learning in my classes. Because of this, I started getting into fights with my teachers over different principles. It was like, “No, I've tried what you just said and it doesn't work very well that way. I'm doing it right now. It doesn't work!” I'd be praying to God in the evenings, like, “Please, help me find a way. It's not that I'm not willing to go through pain, I am, I'm in it right now.” I believe he totally guided me through failures that were needed for my future success. That's really interesting to think about it that way. I started blowing up these different businesses, trying these different things, and running into ClickFunnels. If you guys don't know what ClickFunnels is, it's basically a way to sell things online or offline... but it allows you to have higher average cart values. Basically, meaning: People spend more money buying more of your things that they probably wouldn't have otherwise because you just didn't ask 'em... so you make more money. It's really cool! ...And you don't have to be a coder to put these things out on the internet. And I'm not, I don't know how to code. I have no idea how to do that stuff. I started making all these sales funnels. I still didn't have much money. And I was like, “Who made this software? Russell Brunson! Does he even shave? This guy looks freakin' young, should I even trust him?” You know what I mean? I was like, “Who is this guy?” And I had my own reservations because the first time I saw him, I was like, “This guy's 12.” You know? He's just a very young-looking guy. If you don't know who he is, we're good friends, so I can say that, and I don't think he'll get mad. Anyway, so I was like, “I gotta go to his event.” I was in college still, I was about to graduate. It's like, “I can't get to his event.” So, I started changing the question in my mind. This was towards the end of college for me. It was like, “What if I just get resourceful... 'cause I don't have resources?” And I was like, “Well, I could learn how to build one of these funnel things.” And I went and I started trading funnels for tickets to his next event; funnels for plane tickets and funnels for hotel nights. I bootstrapped my way to the event I was nerdy enough in their software that they knew who I was when I walked up to their event. They said, “What's your name?” I said, “Steve Larsen.” And the guy looked up and he goes, “You're the guy pulling off all that Star Wars ninja crap in our software, right?” That's exactly what he said. And I said, “I dunno.” He's like, “You are! I need you to apply to ClickFunnels.” ...And I ended up getting five job offers at their event, and one week later, I graduated, and three days later, I was sitting next to Russell as his funnel builder. It was just super fast. Really fast pace. Angela: Wow, great. Steve: That's kind of the quick and dirty. Angela: Alright, so now, today, what drives you to do the work that you do? Steve: Honestly, I felt so much shame, which is stupid. Maybe I shouldn't have, but the fact that I couldn't provide just destroyed all semblance of self-esteem for me. I started coming home right after we got married, and I'd walk into our little apartment... It was overpriced, we barely had any money, neither of us could get jobs, we really had no income, but I wasn't thinking about that. It was honeymoon phase, and I was mad in love… Anyway, I started coming home, my wife would still be in bed. She'd already graduated college and I was like, “Are you okay? We alright? You okay?” She's like, “Oh yeah.” So, I'd go back the next day to school, and come back home... *same thing* “You okay?” She's like, “Oh yeah, no, it's nothing, it's fine.” Same thing, same thing, day after day after day after day… I finally got her to admit to me, (and she didn't wanna tell me, 'cause she didn't wanna hurt my feelings), she’d only been eating one meal a day ‘cause we didn’t have money. Angela: Wow! Steve: She’d been doing that so long that she was physically weak. I had no idea. She was literally eating like, some beans… And all the while, still making my lunches so I could have energy in school, and she would just eat a scant meal of dinner with me in the evenings... and that was all she was eating. I am telling you, it destroyed me. A lot of men get their identity based on how well they provide or what they do, and I couldn't do it... and it rocked my world. Rocked everything. I can't describe the pain, and it didn't leave. That's when I called my dad and said, “Hey, will you give me some cash?” And he said “NO,” which is great, I'm glad he did. I went and just started running, just trying stuff. The pain, the level of shame I felt, I had to hide that from people. I was in classes trying to focus but knew my wife was starving at home. It was nuts. It was super nuts. That went on for a really long time… So what drives me today is, I'm a capitalist pig, right? I intend to make a lot of money, but do it in a way that provides a lot of value for the world. There's nothing wrong with that. What drives me is to help install that belief in people's brains, rather than this weird belief a lot of people have around cash. Make money, make a lot of it... because that lets you go help people at a faster pace than you could if you didn't have money. What drives me is that... and when I see people who are still in that zone I was at the beginning of our marriage, like that... Oh, my gosh. You can tell, even now, I'm NOT over it. That was very, very challenging. It was hard on me and I don't want people there either... Angela: What advice would you give to someone who's stuck, who's in that place, who maybe is discouraged, and not able to see the light at the end of the tunnel? What advice would you give to someone to kind of muster that energy to move on? Steve: Few things. It's a great question. The first thing I would tell you to do is, and I was doing this… A lot of these lessons I know because I was doing the exact opposite of it and that's why I learned the lesson. You want depression, here's how you get it... You CANNOT compare yourself to another person's success or the speed that they gained it. It was the fastest way for an entrepreneur (or somebody who's trying to make it) in this game to die. The only way. If you start comparing yourself to these ideals, “Oh, that guy did it at that speed,” I guarantee that's NOT true. Nor is it the first thing they tried… That's the visible side. All of us have years of just trying and trying and trying and beating and beating on our craft. What's interesting is ideals aren't measurable. Pop culture changes every second, and if I measure myself to an ideal, I will never hit it because I can't measure it. Therefore unattainable. You end up measuring your self-esteem, your self-worth, your value to yourself and others on something that is constantly shifting and fictitious. That's totally a huge thing in the entrepreneur world today. Entrepreneurship finally, thankfully, is cool now. It's awesome, it's super cool. It's like this big fad, it’s awesome. But what's funny is, if I go in and rent a freakin' Lambo to take a picture in front of and make on my Facebook profile picture, 'cause that's what I think causes success. That's the most jacked-up crap on the planet. It's NOT true. I've noticed that those types of people will ride this little high, but because it's based on things that are fake, they crash real hard.  All of their worth, all their business worth, all their sense of self is based on something that is constantly shifting. Sit around and be like, “Oh man, I'm a bad mamma jamma! Look what I did yesterday that I could not have done six months ago!” My level of opportunities changed based on how I changed. The whole game's a game of progression. Man, I got the nicest kid award in high school. It's not 'cause I was nice, it's because I was shy. No one knew that, and I had to overcome the fear of speaking. I had to overcome a fear of adults that was near clinical. I had to overcome a lot of stuff. I was dumb, I was kicked out of my first semester of college; I didn't know how to study. I am the least likely success story. The only way I got around it was by comparing me to me yesterday. In that way, I stopped comparing myself to others. I stopped looking at the clock of others, and I know totally ranting right now, but this is a HUGE thing I achieved in my life. Angela: No, but you touched on something important. I've seen lots of your videos and I've heard you tell a little bit of this story before about being very shy, so in my head... I've got two kids and I've got one that's really reserved with most people, but at home, she's a wild woman. Steve: Yes, exactly, at home, you would have no idea. Angela: Right, so my question for you is, ('cause I think that that's pretty important), there may be a lot of people out there who have a hard time putting themselves out there. Russell Brunson has said that he considers himself a more introverted person, but when you see him, he's like, “Wah!” So, where do you get that from? Where do you muster that energy to be on, like on demand? Steve: I think the biggest thing someone can do that will destroy them is starting to self-hate. That'll just wreck 'em. Instead, everything that I know that is NOT gonna be an aid in my business, his name is Stephen, and he's shy... and he's a little bit more reserved. I wouldn't say I'm shy, but I'm a little more reserved. Anyway, I would not be wearing shirts like this or like, “Bleh, Rah!” People ask all the time, “Stephen, how do you have so much energy all the time?” I have a lot of energy when I need to become Steve. Steve is a second person I created... and I know it's stupid, and this sounds really weird, but even Tony Robbins teaches that we all have multiple personalities inside of us. And so... there's Stephen... And Stephen, he's cool, he's the man. He's everything that I needed to be in order to learn the painful lessons I needed to create Steve. And most of the time, I'm Stephen. Steve, that dude's nuts. He is a killer on stage, oh my gosh. He is the one talking to you right now. He destroys the microphone. He tells Russell Brunson to get stage insurance, 'cause he's gonna try and crack it. He’s a deliverer. I love Steve. So, every time I'm about to go on a video, do an interview, or record a podcast, I take a moment to become Steve. ... And it sounds weird, but I had to do it that way... because otherwise, I would've just stayed reserved... kinda just like, “There's no way I'm gonna get on video.” I would NOT be doing this at all if I stayed Stephen 100% of the time. Angela: So, what does that transition look like? I mean, are you like amped up on music? Is there caffeine? Steve: It's a little bit. It's not much. When I do take a lot of caffeine, it jacks me up. But it's a little bit of caffeine. A lot of times though, it's the mentality that I'm taking on. This sounds kinda dark, but one of the things that I try to do is... Man, it's so funny… The moment you start trying to level up your game, you get a lot of lovers and haters. It's like you are the Red Sea. It's like the split, that's what you're walkin'. Both voices get louder. For quite a while, I cared too much about what people thought about me and so, what I decided to do, (and I didn't mean to make this a public thing, it was actually just for me.)   I went and bought this heavy punching bag that's shaped like a human, and I wrote Poverty on it... and I beat the crap out of that thing on a regular basis. It's like this little self-therapy that I will walk through if I need to become Steve. If that thing's not around, I'll imagine beating the snot out of it. But what I do is I write every single thing that's negative that I'm hearing from my audience, another audience, or online, I write it on the freakin' dummy. Most of the time, what I realize what I was trying to do is act like the negativity wasn't there. I would try to shield and shelter, and be like, “It's NOT there, No, no, no! I should just move forward.” Everyone says just to move forward. For me, that was cool, but it was like this weight. For me, in business, I compete on strengths. In my personal development though, I kinda have to work on my weaknesses in order to qualify for more business opportunities. So I write down all the negativity that I hear from the world... and people are really tough behind their computer screens. Some are just straight-up jerks… So, now, there are just tons of words all over it: Not enough Terrible Stutters Say too many “um’s” Big eyes You're not gonna make it Not sustainable Watch him fail and burn. ...Anything that's negative. They're just freakin' jerks! I write it down, I face it, and I consume it. I allow myself to feel it, and I accept it's there. Then I beat it up. Despite knowing the negativity is there, despite all that stuff, I just move forward. So, when I sit down in this chair, I am in a state of war. I am ready to deliver. I will provide and go to war for my family. I will make a lot of value out there, and I will make money while I do so... and that's totally awesome. But that transition zone was very practiced at first. I had to really work on that and meditate over it, and try to... Not that I'm downplaying who I am or who I was, but realizing that my business most likely needs somebody else besides me. A new me in order to actually run in the first place, am I willing to become that person? Not a fake me, but somebody else! So, anyways, music is definitely part of it. Angela: So, let me ask you this... I know a lot of entrepreneurs don't have the support of family and friends. Was that something you had and how did you find your tribe to sort of have those people that you could bounce ideas off or just be a sounding board for whatever your challenges were? Steve: Yeah, there's a lot of family and friends that are out there who, for all of us, it's not that they're trying to be negative, they just DON’T understand what we do and they don't get it at all. ...And frankly, the entrepreneur, for a long time, sucks at explaining what they do. So, you have these two differing angles, and most of the time, I found... What was that book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People? Angela: Yeah, great one. Steve: Yeah, a super good book, right? He's like, most fights or little tiffs are a result of a misunderstanding of roles and goal.  So, if you start working under a different framework, your blueprint starts to change a little bit. That can be threatening to people. A lot of times, I remind people of the things that they didn't take risks on… they're not telling me I'm bad, or they're being mean… What they're doing is reacting to things they've tried to hide in themselves. That's a big thing that I noticed. I was the only person that I physically knew who was doing what I was trying to in my physical sphere. You know what I mean? No one else was building funnels. For years, it was that way. The reason I wanted to go to Russell Brunson's event so bad is that I wanted to be around, for the first time in my life, other people who knew what a sales funnel even was. Even though I was in sales. I was in my sales classes, I was in entrepreneurship classes, in marketing classes… we still weren't talking about how to actually make money. I I'd say, if any entrepreneur's experiencing kind of negativity with family, friends, or even just in general, don't act like it's not there, but just be patient with it... and understand that they're operating from a completely different mindset, and have no idea. They didn't have the same epiphanies you had in order to be doing the logical things that you’re doing, the things that you think are logical. Most of it's just a misunderstanding. Angela: Well, great, thanks. I think you've given some great nuggets for folks who are in the trenches or considering getting in the trenches. So, I appreciate you taking the time to talk to me today. Is there anything you wanna share about what you're working on or where people can go to find out more information about you or maybe some of your projects or products? Steve: Yeah, I think it was business 17 that actually worked. 17, right! That’s a crazy, crazy amount of failure. It was around business try number 12 though, where… Everything I was launching, I didn't get it. I thought I had to have a better product. I thought it was all about the product. I've realized, though, that's actually not true. I could sell any piece of junk. Most people believe that they need to have so much belief in their product. ...But I can sell things I don't believe in. I'm NOT telling anyone to go do that, but it's because of the principles I've learned about marketing and sales... and understanding that they're different. Understanding that closing and sales are different. Those are the things that have made all the difference in the world for me. So, it was around business try number 12 when I started learning what funnels even were, how to do them, how to use them.  That's when things started shifting up for me. I love affiliate marketing. I’ve found that most people get distracted by the creation of the product. They have no idea how to: Sell Position themselves Write copy to get attention So, if you don't have a product and you're trying to learn this game, I would actually tell you NOT to learn how to make a product. I would go do affiliate marketing. I created a program for this exact reason called Affiliate Outrage, affiliateoutrage.com. It's completely FREE, and it walks you through how to market other people’s products, and get paid for it. It's 30 days long, and I brought in all these other experts to teach all the stuff inside of it. What I like about affiliate marketing is that it lets you practice. Just because somebody else made the product, doesn't mean you don't need to make marketing. So it's like marketing training wheels. That's why I like it. So, I would go there. Angela: Okay, so affiliateoutrage.com, that's where we can get more info and step-by-step instructions from you. Steve: Yeah, definitely. Angela: Alright. Steve: Hey, thanks for listening. As you likely have heard in my podcast, I left my job in January 2018 to build my million dollar business completely from scratch without any funding or any help... AND I HIT IT, right on February 1, 2019... Just 13 months later, we actually grossed a million dollars, which is pretty awesome. Better yet, I got to keep a lot of the cash, just 'cause my costs are honestly NOT very high. That said, there are several tools, though, I use to automate vital pieces of my business and ClickFunnels is one of them. ClickFunnels lets me build automated sales machines all over the internet that are non-stop pitching people for me. It's ONLY $97 a month. Better yet, I don't need to be a coder. If you're asking yourself, “Stephen, are you giving me a blatant pitch for ClickFunnels right now?” YES, 100%! I think it's dumb when people don't use ClickFunnels. It makes you MORE and saves you MORE. Basically, I have the power of an entire tech team in my hand and I want you to have it. Go grab a free trial of ClickFunnels by going to freecftrial.com. I want EVERYONE to experience the power of ClickFunnels in their business, so they're letting me hook you up at freecftrial.com.

In this episode, I’m going to be sharing with you how to really get yourself ready for your renovation or building project if that’s on the cards for you in 2019. NOW is the time to prepare properly, and so I want to help you get really well set up for a successful project so you can save time, money and stress, and get it right in your future home. Sound good? So, let’s dive in. SHOW NOTES: In my experience, when homeowners start thinking about building or renovating, this is commonly what they do: they jump online, perhaps set up a Pinterest Board or Houzz Ideabook, and start gathering gorgeous images of kitchens, living rooms, alfresco areas … a lot of aspirational photos of finished projects that look like what they hope they’ll have in their dream home They really do try to nail and define their ‘style’ and put a name on how to describe it … be it Hamptons, or Coastal, or Scandi or something similar They may get a builder around and throw a bunch of ideas and suggestions at them, to try and get an idea of price - which is a bit like asking how long is a piece of string They can speak to friends and neighbours who’ve renovated or built, to see who they used and if they were any good, and what suggestions they might have They might even get a few designers around, and pick their brains for ideas under the guise of seeking fees for their help And I’ve even seen homeowners at this point look at colour schemes, flooring, tiles and Tapware and start collecting samples of things they like Look, all of these things are definitely part of the process, but they’re not the best place to start. In fact, they can be a great way to waste time as you pursue ideas and suggestions that aren’t based in what’s possible for your project and budget - or what potentially suits you the best. And they’re completely lacking any strategy that will streamline your effort, make your project more efficient, or less stressful as well. Homeowners can spend years at this point. Often they’re waiting for the ‘right’ time in their lives … for a pocket of time to become available. Which if you’re like most busy, modern families, that doesn’t really ever happen. Or they’re waiting to have ‘enough money’, which is certainly useful, but if they haven’t actually established their budget, or got some concrete ideas of costs for their desired ideas, it’s a bit of a stab in the dark what ‘enough money’ actually is. I could keep going on about what happens for homeowners in the time before they start their renovation or building projects. Many call it ‘getting ready’ but I feel it’s more like procrastination - or ‘procrasti-planning’ as I call it! And it’s counterproductive because in the searching, the collecting of ideas, the desire to get certainty around what they want to do, what they want to spend, and how they want their home to be, there’s a lot of time wasted. Because they’re often doing it alone, or with well-meaning but poor quality advice from free Facebook groups, or fluffy websites online written by people without a lot of experience or expertise. Sitting up late at night, or scanning their phone on their commute, or at the park with the kids. I think of the deliberation and research that first time mums put into purchasing their first pram or car seat, and yet fly-by-the-seat-of-their-pants for their renovation or building project. I see women taking 12 months to plan a wedding - a one-day event that’s basically a very expensive party - and yet dive into renovating or building with incredible urgency and haste. This may all sound quite harsh and brutal … It basically comes down to this: If you don’t know how to get where you’re going, how can you possibly expect to not get lost? How can you expect to know how to ask the right questions, choose the right people to work with, know how to ask for what you want, be sure you’re getting what you’re paying for, and reach the destination of your finished home unscathed? If you have bottomless pockets and all the time in the world, then winging it is certainly do-able for your renovation or building project. But if you have constraints of time, money and resources, then you may want to be better prepared, better informed, and better equipped for the journey to your finished home. It is possible to have a great experience when you build or renovate your home. You hold the key. You are your future home’s greatest asset. You - what you do, how you choose, what you decide and how you push the progress of your project. It’s within your reach, your power, to be your home’s greatest advocate, and for you to know what you need to know to make your project a success. The fact that you listen to the Undercover Architect podcast tells me that you’re a natural at this … because you understand the importance of being informed and educated for your home’s reno or build to go well. So how can we work together more closely on this … how can you get better prepared, and better informed for your project? Listen to this episode to larn more about “How to Get it Right in Your Reno or New Home”. This is my 6 week online course that is a super-fast way to get you equipped with the tools, knowledge and resources to make your project a success. From understanding how to speak to council, your potential designer and builder, to be able to set your budget and communicate what you want for your future home, to auditing the design and getting all the details resolved, and through to having a stress-free construction process that runs on time and on budget … that’s what “How to Get it Right” will help you do.

The Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder fight is an afterthought for some....not to me. I love boxing. Heavyweight fights haven't been right since the early 2000's. What I saw in that fight were a man's demons take control and win that fight for him. It sounds satanic but it's not. After the fight, I read that Tyson Fury battled depression and suicide. Had I known that my money would have been on the seemingly out of shape "Gypsy King". You CANNOT win anything in life until you battle your own demons. You can also ACT crazy or PLAY crazy but some of us are SICK. If we have almost killed ourselves from something in our mind...you think we wouldnt finish you in reality? Never underestimate the mentally ill. Its not a weakness. If used properly its a strength.

When you start a fitness business, it can feel like you’re EVERYONE has an opinion on how you should run it. The worst thing is that most of this advice SUCKS!

Are you ready to PUNCH DOUBT IN THE FACE?! I am extremely familiar with the voice of self-doubt. It used to cripple me in every area of my life. Self doubt says, "You CANNOT do that. Why would you even try?" So how do we hear the voice, and say, "I CAN do this. I can take one more step." And continue moving forward?   And how does choosing NOT to listen to self doubt put YOU in the driver's seat and force you to put down the victim crutch?   Listen to find out!

John 5:1-15 We are all going to have to answer to Jesus. Let’s look at just the words of Jesus. “Would you like to get well?” “Stand up, pick up your mat, and walk!” “Now you are well; so stop sinning, or something even worse may happen to you.” We say it all the time, “Jesus is a judge of the heart.” He knows what you want before you can even speak it because He knows your heart! Psalm 139:1-7 Just like Jesus knew this man’s condition, He knows your condition. Just like the man couldn’t process “how”…, we often cannot process “how.” So we say, “I can’t, sir”… I want to tell you today that you are right about that!!! YOU CANNOT!!!! But Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, can!!! What is Jesus breaking off of you, right now, today? What are you being made well from? I want to tell you that it does not end there… In the words of Jesus…“Now you are well; so stop sinning, or something even worse may happen to you.” Jesus came to this man, asked him if he wanted to be well, healed him, left him in the crowd and then found him again in the temple, and then instructed him to stop sinning or something worse, than the previous affliction, could happen. Has Jesus met you in a real way that has brought you to church this morning? Hebrews 10:26-29 That blood covenant is the work of the cross! It was Jesus taking on our sins and dying, for us… in our place… so that we could be made right with God!!! What is the value of seeking forgiveness if you are only going to turn around and do the same thing again? Paul addressed this in Romans 6:1-2 and Romans 6:15-16 There’s your two choices. Jesus was warning this man, as He is also warning us today, to not allow the fact that we are healthy, or as the passage puts it “well”, to lead us back into a life of sin! If we are truly repentant… we will change!!!!! Will you show others around you the fruit that you have been made well and reinforce that with a changed life? Will you stop sinning so something even worse does not happen to you?

Leading and discipling our small group leaders well is crucial to the health of our ministry. It's more of an art than a science, and it can often be challenging. This week we're joined by Krystopher Scroggins to discuss how we can lead our small group leaders well through continuing the process of relational discipleship.  Resources: Our Own God by G. D.

There’s a very good reason why the Fake Gurus tell you to use paid advertising, even though they know perfectly well that for home based business owners paid advertising is a huge flushing toilet the size of Niagara Falls, only instead of flushing water it flushes your cash down the drain. The Fake Gurus don’t care if that happens to you, and it will happen to you if you use paid advertising. Be sure to Subscribe to the Show! Find much more TRUTH about ECommerce on my site. EPISODE TRANSCRIPT We have a saying around here at “The People Who Know What We’re Doing Online” clubhouse, and it goes like this: “People who use paid advertising are people who don’t know how to MARKET”. This refers to home-based business owners, and if you use paid advertising now or have used it in the past, don’t take that personally. All it means is that you’ve gotten bad information from the fake 'ebiz gurus' that have told you to use paid advertising. That’s not your fault. There’s a very good reason why the Fake Gurus tell you to use paid advertising, even though they know perfectly well that for home based business owners paid advertising is a huge flushing toilet the size of Niagara Falls, only instead of flushing water it flushes your cash down the drain. The Fake Gurus don’t care if that happens to you, and it will happen to you if you use paid advertising. They need you to use paid advertising, though (which is why they tell you to do it), because the "systems, tools and wealth programs" they sell you are so uniformly horrible that they only way you’ll ever make a few sales using them is if you actually pay for advertising on TOP of using their horrible tools. This is really all about psychology. Again, the Fake Gurus know the "Magical Mystical Success Tools" they sell you are junk and won’t work. But they also know that if you use paid advertising, you will make a few sales (with a TOTALLY DIFFERENT marketing method…called paid advertising). If you start to make a few sales, then you don't realize that the "Magical Mystical Success Tools" are junk because hey, you made a few sales while you were using those tools (AND, don’t forget, paid advertising!). Psychologically they know that those FEW sales will make you feel that the junk tools DO work, but for some mysterious reason you’re not making enough sales. They'll blame that on you, telling you that you need to buy more of their tools. See, if you ever complain to the Fake Gurus about their horrible tools, they can say, “Well, since you made a few sales, our "Twenty Thousand Dollar Cornucopia Of Excellent Tools At Amazing Prices DID work, you’re just not using them right. So since you're such a dumb-ass, you need to buy our Supersized Marketing Incredo-Pac; that’s only another ten thousand dollars and the few sales you’ve made so far will multiply like rabbits on an island that only rabbits live on!” (Which, of course, they won’t. Rabbits never live on islands that only rabbits live on). See how that works? The few sales you’ll make with paid ads (which, by the way, will cost you more than you earn in profits!) will give you a false IMPRESSION (that’s a paid advertising joke…get it?) that the horrible tools work, then they tell you that you just need to buy more horrible tools to amp it up into more sales. As a home-based business owner with a limited budget and a pile of junk tools and information that frankly just suck, using paid advertising is like buying a new car, and then having to buy another new car to push the first new car with, because the first new car doesn’t run. Would you ever do that? Of course not. You wouldn’t buy the first car if it needed another car to push it because it doesn’t run. I know what you’re thinking (or at least I’m taking a reasonably educated guess). I’m guessing that you’re thinking “Hey, all those big box stores use paid advertising. Paid advertising is all over TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, billboards, bus stop benches AND the internet! So how can paid advertising be so bad??” (If you weren’t thinking that, you are NOW, right?!) Okay, let’s talk about the difference between big companies who have hundreds of millions of dollars to flood consumer markets with tons of advertising, and small home-based businesses that don’t have anywhere near that kind of money. There, we just talked about the difference. Small home-based businesses can’t afford to blanket half the known universe with paid advertising. It’s not cost-effective, at least not when you’re starting out. So how, then, is YOUR web site supposed to rise to the top of a search engine, or ever be found ANYWHERE in a search engine against all those big companies that have a gazillion dollars set aside just for lunch money? Well first, let’s dispel a myth here. Many people have been told that your web site ranking gets better and better when you pay the search engines more and more money for advertising. FALSE. Flat out, unequivocally, never-ever-happens FALSE. You CANNOT buy your way to the top of a search engine, period. So how do you get your web site to outrank all those big-box stores? Yes, it most certainly can be done. You just have to learn a thing or three.   THE SEARCH ENGINES NOW RANK SITES BASED ON AUTHORITY In the covered-wagon days of the internet, you could have a web site that had tons of different pages on it, EACH of those pages selling completely different things. That was back when the search engines were much simpler. They only understood nouns. Being simple and basic as they were, they used to rank web pages on each page’s individual merit. In those days, if AllTheStuffYouNeed.com’s web site had the word “Squeegee” on their Squeegee sales page 24 times, and BobsCratesOfVariousStufs.com’s Squeegee page had the word “Squeegee” on it’s Squeegee sales page 36 times, BobsCratesOfVariousStufs.com WINS. YOU GO, Bob! Yes, of course, it wasn’t quite that simple. But that was a lot of how ranking worked back then. Now, (starting with Google’s big ‘Panda Update’ in 2011), search engines are much more sophisticated. They understand Nouns, Verbs, Pronouns, Adjectives and lots of other word-types that you probably forgot about ten minutes after you got out of school. I know I did. They also look at fussy little things like Grammar and Syntax. The most important part is that they now look at an entire web site as a whole, not just as a loose collection of individual pages. When a web site is a serious source of authority for one thing and one thing only, Google looks at that web site with unabashed adoration in it’s googly little eyes. It LOVES that web site. It writes that web site poetry, sends it flowers, and hopes it can take that site out to dinner and a movie on Friday night. Okay, I know I got a bit carried away…but I think I made the point. So the way Google operates NOW, a web site that is a focused source of authority on one subjct will ALWAYS naturally rank very well in the search engines. Big-box store web sites and sites like Amazon and eBay have horribly scattered authority. They have tens of thousands of product pages that are not related to one another as one subject, and cannot rank well in a search engine on their own. So what is a huge site or big-box store to do? Hmmm…how about paid advertising? Big-box stores NEED paid advertising. And I’m not just talking about paid advertising online. I mean paid advertising everywhere. Those big companies would come to your house and paint an ad on your cat if they thought they could get away with it. They need physical-world mass-media advertising because they need their scatter-shot web sites to already be know to consumers ahead of time, so that consumers go there directly when they shop online.   SO THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF SUCCESSFUL SITES. 1. Sites that are big-box stores like Home Depot and Target, and bargain-hunting destinations like eBay and Amazon. They pay for advertising all over the place, online and in the physical world. They can’t rank well NATURALLY because their pages are so scattered among so many subjects that Google just can’t get an authority handle on them. But their paid advertising causes lots of people to go directly to those sites without ever using a search engine, and that’s what they need. 2. Sites that are small, home-based, very tightly niched sources of authority for one subject, and one subject only. When built and marketed properly, those sites can easily out-rank the big-box stores and mega-bargain stores all day long.   SO WHY DON’T YOU SEE THOSE SMALL SITES AT THE TOP OF THE SEARCH ENGINES ALL THE TIME? If what I just told you is true, how come you see so many big-box stores (and Ama-bay) at the top of the search engine results so often? It’s simple, really. Very few people know how to create real authority with a search engine. When a search engine can’t find a site with real, focused authority in a given search, it defaults to other ranking factors like size of the site, how long it’s been out there, how many links, etc. Why don’t more people know how to do that? That’s simple, too. If more people knew how to actually market a site with authority to a search engine, they wouldn’t need Fake Guru's horrible tools and systems. And the Fake Gurus' horrible tools and systems are a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY. That’s right, I said the B word. Most of those lousy fake marketers out there work together in some form or another, whether it’s passing your personal information around like a bowl of potato chips at a company picnic or getting together to build new garbage info-products like rusty sculptures at a junkyard art festival. They’re part of an extended fat-cat conglomerate of liars and thieves who work with each other to prevent you from finding out the truth. If everybody knew the TRUTH about online marketing, the bad guys would be out of business would and have to go back to living in their parents’ basements munching Cheetos and watching Seinfeld reruns all day. THE TRUTH IS that while paid advertising does have a place in business, that place is not in your home-based ECommerce start-up. That means Google Adwords, it means Facebook advertising, all of it. So when is paid advertising useful to a home-based business? When you learn how to market properly, your site will rise in the search engine rankings naturally and begin to make sales. As it does, you monitor your site’s metrics (read that "use Google Analytics"). After your business begins running well based on authority, your analytics will tell you what your top one or two keywords actually are. Then, if you choose to, you can put a little bit of your profits into a very SMALL, TARGETED ad campaign on just that best keyword at first. When that begins to work (which it will), you can use some of those profits to expand that campaign to other keywords that your site metrics have already told you are working for you. Then again, if you really learn how to market, you’ll never need to use paid advertising if you don’t want to.   SO, IN SUMMARY: 1. For a home-based online startup, paid advertising is too expensive, ineffective (when you don’t have site metrics) and used as a tool to fool you into thinking that the Fake Guru tools are actually working. 2. Web sites rank in the search engines when they are authoritative about one subject only, which means niching tightly into a single product line and learning how to properly market it.

"Free Shipping" doesn't exist. There's no such thing. It's a myth. Somebody ALWAYS pays for shipping.

In the 25+ years I've been making money online (and in my 43+ years in business overall) I have never come across a shipping company that ships for free. Have you? In one of my EBiz Insider Workshops last year, I had a person who had been a UPS Driver for 17 years. I asked him if he ever worked for free. He said no. I was not surprised. Covering the shipping cost of a product to an online customer happens in one of three ways: 1. The seller pays for the shipping, which comes out of their profit margin. 2. The buyer pays for the shipping, which gets charged to them during the purchase. 3. The seller pays for the shipping by HIDING the shipping cost in a higher product price, which still means that they buyer pays for the shipping. Then of course sometimes, there's a combination where the seller hides SOME of the shipping in a higher product price, and charges the buyer a lower 'flat rate' shipping price. Any way you ship it, there is NO such thing as actual Free Shipping. You know that, I know that...hey, even our dog probably know that. She's pretty smart. Free Shipping has a cost. Always. Small business owners cannot afford to cover any of that cost out of their profit margins (which is the only way to offer Free Shipping). Fake Gurus who tell you that as a small business owner you must offer Free Shipping are simply trying to feed you a plate full of ship, so to speak, and are expecting you to pay them for the meal. Like so many other things in sales, Free Shipping is a gimmick. Sales gimmicks are the last resorts of people who don't know how to actually market products. Let me repeat that LOUDLY for those in the back row who are playing games on their smart phones and not paying attention: SALES GIMMICKS (like Free Shipping) ARE THE LAST RESORTS OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO ACTUALLY MARKET PRODUCTS. Fake Gurus do not know how to actually market products. They only know how to feed you plates full of ship, and (ironically) charge you for delivering them. Small business owners who do know how to market products charge shipping to their customers all day long, and their customers pay it without a problem. So let's talk about some of the things involved in actually marketing a product properly. 1. Choose a product market that's profitable and has room for competition. Market Research (when done correctly) is the process of finding products that (a) sell well, (b) are not overly competitive, and (c) fall within certain price ranges that make a product worth selling. The Fake Gurus will tell you to 'sell something you like', or 'test products to see what sells'. That's why they're called Fake Gurus; both of those ideas are ridiculous. This isn't about selling what you like. It's about researching what sells well and has room for competition, and then learning to love that product. A good retail salesperson is a die-hard evangelist for the product they sell. If they're not, their lack of enthusiasm in their Social Media efforts will rat them out in a heartbeat and kill their sales before they begin. 2. Understand how people search for the product. A good marketer knows that Keyword Research is, well, KEY to marketing a product. Researching every possible word or phrase, whether closely or distantly related to the product line, and then using those words and phrases properly in marketing makes all the difference. Marketurds and Midiots won't even mention Keyword Research to you most of the time, and it's absolutely critical to do it, and do it right. 3. Develop a deep understanding of WHO BUYS the product. You CANNOT sell the same product to all age and gender demographics at the same time. No professional marketer ever even tries to do that. Not even the big kids at the multi-million dollar Ad Agencies on Madison Avenue. Every product line has a 'sweet spot' where the highest concentration of customers for that product exist, and it's a marketer's job to find that sweet spot and understand it. When you figure out who the customer is that buys the most of your product most of the time, you've found the money in the product line. Demographic Research then tells you things like how to talk to them, what color palettes work for them, whether they prefer to see a lot of text and less imagery, or lots of imagery and less text on sales pages, what style of graphics and typography we should be using, and many, many more critically important things. When you understand the Demographic, you know how to present them with an extended marketing message that strikes an irresistible chord with them, and if that's done right they'll buy from you immediately even if they have to walk to the Moon and pick up the product themselves. But again, Fake Gurus know nothing of these processes. These are real world marketing tools, and the Fake Gurus aren't interested in the real world except as it applies to emptying your wallet. 4. Sell in the right places. If you were going to build a lemonade stand on the sidewalk and sell cups of lemonade to passers-by, like kids do in the summertime, would you rather build that lemonade stand in from of The Dollar Store, or in front of Macy's? People walking into The Dollar Store are bargain hunting. They're trying to save money. You might get a nickel a cup for lemonade once in a while in front of The Dollar Store. However, you'll get a quarter a cup for lemonade all day long in front of Macy's. In the PHYSICAL retail world, LOCATION matters because the FOOT TRAFFIC matters. Higher end retail stores are built in physical locations that have a higher-income DEMOGRAPHIC per capita because that's where the money is. The same thing happens online. People who are shopping on eBay, Amazon, WalMart.com, etc., are bargain hunting. Those people will most often be price-comparing, because they have a need to save money. In those places, Free Shipping DOES have an impact, and so does price. When you sell in places where people shop with a bargain-hunting mentality, you have to lower your price to the point where your profit margins are so low you couldn't see under them with a microscope, and that's no way to run a business. You need to place your business where the money is; where people are searching for products based on the quality they want rather than the price they can afford. That is and always will be your own web site. People who shop the search engines for products are NOT going directly to eBay, Amazon and WalMart. They're searching for the PRODUCT, not the PRICE. The number of people who search Google and other search engines for products vastly outnumbers the people who bargain hunt directly at eBay, Amazon, etc. If you learn proper Market Research, Keyword Research, Demographics, and sell in the right place with a clear understanding of marketing, you'll make a lot of money and you won't need to even think about offering Free Shipping. The next time some Fake Guru tries to sell you a plate full of 'free ship', hand them a spoon and tell them to eat it themselves; you're not hungry. Want to learn how things really work?

You cannot restore health by managing disease. It's that simple. So simple, that it bears repeating. You CAN NOT restore health by managing disease. Yet that's a hard concept for most to wrap their head around. It's a foreign concept because that's pretty much all that the medical profession does when it comes to chronic diseases — arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, IBS, Crohn’s disease, and the list goes on and on. They MANAGE disease, never getting to the root of the problem, or even attempting to truly restore health. In other words, "health care" professionals manage your symptoms, NOT eliminating what is causing the symptom(s) — the DISEASE!

" Over the Christmas and New Year holiday, my family and I had the chance to get away and we went up to a cabin in the mighty metropolis of Hot Sulfur Springs.  My whole family was there and we had a great time.  We had planned this pancake breakfast for New Year's Day.  There was no shortage of texts messages back and forth about the kind of pancakes we were going to eat.  Oatmeal pancakes.  Banana pancakes.  We got up on New Year's Day with sleep in our eyes and deprivation in our souls because we had stayed up past midnight.  We made the pancakes and were keeping them warm in the oven.  We started putting them out when someone in my family asks, "Did anybody bring the syrup?"  Here's the question: What do you do when you have a pancake breakfast prepared and you forget the syrup?  Here's three options:  1) You try to make syrup out of something else.  2) You don't eat the pancakes.  3) You eat the pancakes plain.  {Ryan has congregation discuss it.}   In my opinion, number three is the only non-option.  You CANNOT eat pancakes plain.  They taste disgusting!  You don't notice it when you put syrup on it, because syrup makes it all better.  It covers a multitude of sins.  The only reason we have pancakes is so that we can get syrup into our mouth!   I want to talk to you about syrup this morning.  About the one thing that changes everything---with it everything falls into place and without it, nothing else matters.  Open your Bible to Revelation 2.   You'll remember that we're starting a series and journeying through the first few chapters of Revelation, where Jesus is writing, through the Apostle John, to specific churches in his day.  He's giving them encouragement, he's writing to the context that they're in uniquely, and he's got a word, both of commendation, of correction, of instruction for the churches he writes to.  Listen as he begins these letters with a letter to the church at Ephesus:  To the angel of the church in Ephesus write:  'The words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks among the seven golden lampstands.     Remember, last week we saw Jesus lifted up, we saw Jesus reigning above, we saw Jesus advocating for, and we saw Jesus walking among the churches, and John wants to reiterate that as he writes to the church at Ephesus......"

- In the wake of the Las Vegas shooting, I had to take some time and get some things off of my chest. Some people, likely many, may not like what I have to say at some points. That said, you may want to stick it out til the end for the lesson, or just read it below because, just like a pencil, the point is at the end. -This week we had the deadliest mass shooting in American history. At the time I’m writing this, 59 people are reported dead, and well over 500 are injured. I'm not gonna mention the scumbag murdering SOB by name because I strongly believe that we shouldn't make these people famous, and the news organizations have been plastering his name across every readable surface since they got it. This guy was a murderer. NO two ways about it.As the news came in today and I read more and more about what they know, and what they don't know, I started bouncing things around in my head. Never mind that the media always goes out there and shares the guy's name, job, girlfriend, former employers blah blah blah… As all this crap started going out the question everyone was still, mostly fairly, asking was why? Why did a 64 year, old multi-millionaire, retired accountant decide one day to shoot up at country music festival in Las Vegas? What made this guy snap? Did anybody know? Were there signs that he could have been stopped? I don't know. At this point nobody really does. But what I've come to realize is, I really don't give a shit. I don't really give a half a rat's ass about who the fucker is and why he shot nearly 600 people. All that matters is that out there are nearly 60 people who didn't make it home from a concert. Sixty people who will never again see their moms, dads, sisters, brothers, husbands, wives… And all of those moms, dads, sisters, brothers, husbands, and wives that now have to put somebody that they love into a box for no good reason, because, trust me, there is NO "good" reason for why this motherfucker did what he did. But you know what really gets to me? All the self-righteous motherfuckers on social media who go out there spewing their bullshit and politicizing this heinous act. Those people who, rather than show support for those who were lost, or the injured, choose to rant about how this is all because the of the GOP, or all because of Trump. Or the people who say this wouldn't have happened if we banned automatic weapons. - SIDEBAR- Automatic weapons ARE illegal, and it appears that the dozen or so automatic riffles used in this shooting were all acquired illegally. So a ban wouldn't have stopped him. People who want to do bad things and commit terrible acts don't care about laws.- These people are out there using this terrible act of violence against innocent civilians as an excuse to spew hatred, when the bodies are still being counted. It seems like everywhere I looked this morning was somebody else bitching, oh the GOP says you have the right to own guns but not the right to healthcare… This is all because Republicans care more about gun owners than the people they kill… I bet they're gonna make all these people pay for their medical treatment… First off, yes they're probably gonna get some sort of bill for medical treatment. Some of these people may need therapy for a while after this. But at the same time, there are millions upon millions of dollars given to help people in these type of situations every year so that they don't have to pay for being the victim of a violent crime. I personally had all my medical bills covered by just such a fund when I was hospitalized following "the Incident." And secondly, this is not a gun rights issue, this is a sick bastard issue. You CANNOT blame the tool for being used irresponsibly. You blame the person who used the tool. You don't sue Jack Daniels every time somebody gets drunk and kills a pedestrian. No, you blame the person who did the killing. In this case, that man is already dead. Some may say that isn't truly justice. To me, one less sick fuck in the world who chose to savagely murder others is a good thing. But what isn't good is spreading vitriol across the internet while the bodies are still warm. They haven't even identified everybody and there are people out there making this a political issue instead of showing concern for the victims and their families. To all of those people, some I may even consider my friends, who take this as an opportunity to spew hate towards any political party or person or policy: FUCK YOU! It's not about you, or any political bullshit, it's about those people who lost their lives and the families who now have to put them in the ground. So many people chomping at the bit to shit on politicians on either side of the aisle and hate hate hate, when what this whole world needs is love. We need to be coming together to help these families get through this. We need to be out there donating to these charities so that nobody hurt by this psychopath has to pay for the damage done to them. We need to be going out and donating blood, because 600 people out there sure as hell lost a lot of it. We need to be coming together as a country and saying we love you and we’re here to help, whatever you need. And when the dust has settled and the services have all passed, and the survivors are home, then we can have a civil discussion about what can be done to try and prevent something like this from happening again. No wise choice has ever been made under duress. Now is not the time for some kneejerk legislative reaction that will only truly serve to get one political group or another public favor. Now is the time for unity and strength and love for everyone affected by this tragedy. And for the time being, it's time to keep your political views to yourself.

My last words for you are, thanks and continue with the podcast, you are amazing guys. I will continue hearing (listening to) you every time that I can. Regards,Gabriel. Audio Feedback: Adrian sent us an audio message on speakpipe.com/inglespodcast from Costa Rica - "can we talk about the word THE and when to use it" We spoke about The definite and indefinite article, A, AN, THE, ZERO with Bea in Episode 41 ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2015/01/15/the-definite-and-indefinite-article-a-an-the-zero-with-special-guest-bea-airc41/ ) Email Feedback: Francisco Espínola Sanchez from Úbeda, Jaen Hi friends, how is it going? The aim of this e-mail is to share some ideas and experiences with the listeners. For example, for the last three months I have been working on my English improvement in a different way. Neither academies, nor boring grammar books, nor that kind of stuff. Now I just do three activities: listening to podcasts intensively, reading English literature and occasionally, doing language exchange (using skype or head to head (face to face), when it´s possible). I carry on listening to your podcast loyally, every week. What´s more, I have found some interesting podcasts. One is Luke´s English podcast, who is friend of yours, isn´t he? This one requires some effort at the beginning, as Luke speaks faster than you, but it´s worth trying it. I would say that AIRC (Aprender Inglés con Reza y Craig) is more academic and Luke is somehow like a TV comedian, so both podcasts together are the perfect team! This way, I can get at least three new episodes or so every week, so I keep continuously active. In combination with bilingual books, this method is really working to (for) me, I feel my English improving one day after another, so I would encourage the AIRC listeners community to try it. In my case, I am learning without noticing it at all! I have got the FCE and the next target is the CAE! By the way, do you know Úbeda?? It´s an UNESCO world heritage city in the province of Jaén (I am consciously promoting tourism for my hometown :) Well, sorry for the endless e-mail (and for mistakes) and thank you very much for your commitment, have a big hug!! Francisco recommends (listening to) Luke’s podcast. He suggests we listen to it. Luke's English Podcast: http://teacherluke.co.uk/ Inglés Diario Chris Gollop: http://inglesdiario.es/ David Palencia - Daway Inglés: http://www.dawayingles.com/ I hear a lot of mistakes with the verbs to recommend and to suggest from my Spanish students You CANNOT say: XI suggested him to listen to our podcast.X With SUGGEST (proponer/sugerir) we can say: I suggest (that) he listens to our podcast. I suggest (that) he listen to our podcast (no 3rd person singular “s” = subjunctive - more common in formal American English) I suggested listening to our podcast There are 2 more formal and less common constructions that may be tested in an advanced exam: I suggested him/Paul listening to our podcast I suggested Paul’s/his (possessive=very formal) listening to our podcast With RECOMMEND (aconsejar, recomendar) we can say: I recommended him to listen to our podcast. (XYou can't say "I suggested him to listen....X) I recommended (that) he listen/listens to our podcast. I recommended (him/his/Paul/Paul’s) listening to our podcast I recommended that he should listen to our podcast I recommend hiring a builder to do up your flat rather than trying to do it up yourself.

The great thing about this job, is that I get to meet a wide variety of people. I think every one has something to teach me. The super healthy and the super sick both offer lessons. A couple of months ago I had someone come in that was "too late", much too late. Advanced neurological destruction and severe liver problems. Those are hard ones, because there is a point of no return for the body. One of my pet projects over the last 20 years has been to find as many ways to prevent problems as I can. I think it's important because it can keep you from jumping the rails and going off course. Yesterday was Fathers Day and I took the day to read, and read, and read some more. I'll admit, I was very lazy. I had some interesting things jump out at me. Health is a nebulous concept, like wisdom. There is no end point to arrive to. But, we definitely know what unhealthy is. That's pretty easy. You have pain. You are over weight. You are chronically tired. You have diabetes. You have XYZ disease. There are more than 10,000 labels of problems I can give a person in the insurance code book. To my knowledge there isn't a code for "healthy." They sure as heck don't pay me to keep you healthy. That's crazy talk. Being healthy is when your Mind, Body, and Soul are at peace with one another. Good health practices have known for thousands of years. You know veggies are good for you and cupcakes aren't, right? The basics aren't hard to understand. It gets tricky in the modern world with man-made problems. The temptations from advertising are everywhere. Your friends will tempt you and the sirens song of sugar is always playing. When I was reading yesterday I came across this from C.S. Lewis. I thought it was a good way of looking at temptations. "No man knows how bad he is till he has tried very hard to be good. A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try and resist temptation know how strong it is. After all, you find out the strength of the German army by fighting against it, not by giving in. You find out the strength of the wind by trying to walk against it, not by lying down. A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later." You might be thinking, "that's all well and good, but I don't know how to exercise, I don't know how to cook, and my spouse isn't on board." In modern society, you'll always encounter roadblocks...always. I have them too. You'll also constantly have temptations. You will fall off the wagon, every one does. The difference will be if you get back on. It's actually good for you to fall off every once in a while. It makes you appreciate the wagon more. Ultimately, you are responsible for you. You are a priority. You are "the" priority. If you are ill, everyone around you suffers. If your spouse refuses to get on board with doing healthy things, then let it be and focus on you. Maybe, slip an extra life insurance policy in there :) You can't force someone to believe something. It won't work no matter how hard you try. Have you ever tried to force some one to believe anything? What happens, they dig their heels in against you. Just like trying to push a dog forward, they resist. Try pushing a string. You can't force people to believe in chiropractic, in organic food, or even God, for that matter. I get the "I don't believe in chiropractic" all the time. That's nice. Can I change that person's mind? Probably not. I actually can, but they have to crash and burn first, then try all other options. Then we run into the problem of "it might be too late." If your spine has old injuries (i.e.. Car accident 30 years ago), you can't exercise or eat your way out of those problems. I've had plenty try. Not happening. Last November's blog post had a great story on this. So how can you help yourself? You can be on the lookout for more skillful living. This is the seeking of wisdom. Wisdom allows you to make better choices. Your life is a reflection of your choices. The sermon I heard on Sunday highlighted four characters you will meet or you may become in a pursuit of wisdom. I see these characters in health care all the time. When I find someone with a lot of wisdom in an area I interview them for the podcast (SLCSAW). The naive: This person lacks experience. It's fine, you know you don't know. Nothing wrong with that. It's actually an intelligent place to be. We are all there at sometime. You can't know everything about everything. This is a proactive mindset because you are aware. The fool: knows right from wrong but doesn't care. You know smoking or fast food is bad for you, but you continue to believe nothing bad will come from it. You can get here by accident because there are often no immediate consequences. This is a reactive mindset. The mocker: Makes fun of what's right. You can also get here by accident. You run into this mindset with people that are resistant to change. They are tough to be around. They will make fun of people eating organic food or doing anything else healthy. The wise: Knows right from wrong and chooses the best option. You CAN NOT get here by accident. You need to be deliberate in your path. This is the fun part of constant learning. You need to study yourself and others that have gone before you. The first step is to just be aware that learning is a life-long process that never ends. Look within...If you are unhealthy, realize you need to learn more. Remember the naive person is the intelligent person. They recognize they need to change something. I'm learning more about toxic metals every day. Where ever you are on your health journey is perfect for you, as long as you are learning to be better. Look around... If your grandfather is slumped over and in constant pain, and you don't want to end up like that, don't do what he did. If your doctor is overweight, maybe get a second opinion on health advice. If your friends tease you at lunch about eating "health food". They are just mockers and their opinion doesn't count. Wisdom is trying to make the best choice, not the easiest or most popular choice. Would you like more info on what I've learned about proactive health over the past 20 years? -Dr. Altman

The track is called 'See You Later'

I was on an interesting call with a client today – her branding is around empowerment. And she wanted some help with some of her mental blocks: “What are people going to think?” Here’s the thing: people are ALWAYS going to think something of you. You CANNOT allow your dreams to be limited by someone else’s judgements. You NEED to believe in your dreams and put yourself out there, or you might as well just GIVE UP NOW. We need to go ALL IN. The big thing when it comes to other people’s opinions is we’re SCARED they’ll see our downfalls.. my slogan is “life is now, press play” – and if someone asked if I ‘press play’ in ALL areas of my business and life, I’d say NO! BUT. WE’RE HUMAN. We have pitfalls. We ALL have fears. Look at your true, deep desire, and FIGURE OUT how to get your desire. OTHERWISE you’ll just be saying “I can have it all,” but if you’re not LISTENING to your heart, you probably won’t be able to get it. • Start to be aware about what you say you believe, vs. what you DO believe • Listen to your inner voice, your heart. • What are your core beliefs? EXERCISE When you think about something you REALLY want to do, and you’re holding back, what’s your fear? Are you scared of people leaving your life? People laughing at you? Write that down. Identify your 3 core beliefs, and look at 3 parts of your life where you’re not living those beliefs. What can you do to improve those 3 areas?   If you enjoyed this episode of ERTV, you can sign up here (http://katloterzo.com/podcast) and receive my FREE book: Multi-Passionate Woman: FOR THE DRIVEN WOMAN WHO WANTS TO BE, DO AND HAVE IT ALL, IN BUSINESS AND LIFE!

Today's show is inspired by and dedicated to my business partner Aj Amyx and his great Facebook post last week. Here it is: "So many times as ENTREPRENEURS we WANT the vision we see and FEEL within ourselves created TOMORROW. I read these words from Lao-tzu this morning... Nature does NOT hurry, yet EVERYTHING is ACCOMPLISHED. The REALITY is this... You CANNOT make something GROW faster than it SHOULD. TRY and you WILL kill it. Where in your LIFE are you FORCING an OUTCOME rather than... SEEING it for where it TRULY is. Tell the TRUTH. ACCEPT the truth. Then maybe...just MAYBE... ...you can EMBRACE the reality and move FORWARD. A HARVEST is not reaped overnight. ACCEPT the stage of the PROCESS you are in. It's TIME...it's YOUR time...it's GAMETIME." -Aj
