rwh01march -Ep.353 – Run With Horses Podcast –Personal Spring Cleaning Podcast: rwh.podbean.com Website: www.runwithhorses.net Youtube: https://youtube.com/@rwhpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RWHpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rwh_podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/RWH_podcast Author pages with links to all books on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0BCSDDVLB – James Norman Smith https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0BMGW51FW – Susan Jane Smith A "spring cleaning" for your life is a fantastic way to reset and refresh your routine, mindset, and environment. Where do most people begin and how can we make that a little more intentional as a disciple of Jesus? Here are some thoughts: 1. Declutter Your Space: This is a reoccurring theme for many of us. The things we surround ourselves with can eventually control us. Take charge and evaluate everything in light of eternity and it's usefulness as a follower of Jesus. 2. Revamp Your Routine: Building and maintaining healthy habits is a large part of staying consistent in your spiritual life. What habits do you have, What habits do you need to develop? 3. Refresh Your Digital Life: Reduce and remove digital distractions.. Today's screen focused world can be a hindrance to an authentic relationship with Jesus. Evaluate your screen time and use it wisely. 4. Review Finances: Strive to be a good steward of your finances. 5. Assess Personal Goals: What is the big picture of what God is doing in your life? How is He growing you and what is He challenging you to become? Compare your goals with His goals for you! 6. Invest in Health: Finances aren't the only place that we need to be good stewards! Your health matters. Are you taking care of the level of health that God has given you? 7. Reconnect with Relationships: Relationships are a big part of our spiritual life. We need relationships with others and they need us. Be intentional and keep Jesus at the center of all of your relationships. 8. Learn Something New: Don't stagnate physically, mentally or spiritually. Read good books on topics that will help you grow. The spiritual disciplines are always a place you can invest and reap rewards. 9. Cleanse Your Mind: Romans 12:1-2 Renew your mind. Maintain time in God's Word and really spend some time meditating on it, asking God to make His thoughts your thoughts. 10. Physical Clean-Up: You surrounds can really affect your emotional and mental state which impacts your spiritual life. Spend some time cleaning up your space physically to help you focus spiritually. You can do a personal spiritual evaluation by reflecting on key principles and practices found in Scripture. This evaluation is not about perfection, but about growth in faith, love, and obedience to God. Here's a step-by-step guide for conducting a spiritual evaluation: 1. Reflect on Personal Relationship with God Prayer and Devotion: Evaluate how consistent and sincere your personal time with God is. Are you seeking to commune with Him daily in prayer and through His Word? (Matthew 6:6, James 4:8) Do you have a consistent time or do you need to plan one? Heart Check: Ask yourself: Do you truly desire to know God more deeply, or have other distractions and idols taken His place? (Deuteronomy 6:5, Matthew 22:37) 2. Evaluate Your Relationship with the Word of God Bible Reading and Study: How regularly are you engaging with the Scriptures? Are you reading to grow, to learn, and to obey, or simply out of obligation? (Psalm 119:11, 2 Timothy 3:16-17) Are you consistently reading through Scripture? NT every year as a beginning goal. Obedience to the Word: Do you apply God's Word to your life? Is your obedience rooted in love for Christ and a desire to honor Him? (John 14:15, James 1:22) 3. Assess Your Life of Repentance and Confession Confession and Repentance: Are you regularly confessing sins and repenting? Acknowledge areas where sin has a hold and work on turning away from them. (1 John 1:9, Romans 12:1-2) Humility and Accountability: Are you humble enough to admit areas where you need growth, and do you have accountability in your life? (Proverbs 27:17, James 5:16) 4. Examine Your Love for Others Love for Others: Do you love others as Christ has loved you? Evaluate your relationships with family, friends, and fellow believers. (John 13:34-35, 1 John 4:7-21) Are you meeting new people regularly? Forgiveness and Grace: Are you quick to forgive and show grace, or do you harbor bitterness or unforgiveness? (Ephesians 4:32, Matthew 18:21-22) Are YOU the center of your relationships or is Jesus? 5. Reflect on Your Role in the Body of Christ Service and Ministry: Are you actively serving others in the church and in your community? God has gifted each believer for the building up of His body. (1 Corinthians 12:4-7, Ephesians 4:11-16) Where are you using your gifts? Fellowship: Do you prioritize fellowship with other believers? Being a part of the body of Christ means engaging with the community of believers, not just individually. (Hebrews 10:24-25, Acts 2:42-47) 6. Assess Your Personal Witness and Evangelism Sharing the Gospel: Are you actively sharing your faith and seeking opportunities to tell others about Christ? Evaluate your willingness to be a light in the world. (Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 1:8) Living as a Witness: Is your life reflecting the character of Christ to those around you? Are others able to see Christ in your actions and attitude? (Matthew 5:14-16, 1 Peter 3:15) 7. Check Your Spiritual Fruit Fruit of the Spirit: How are you reflecting the fruit of the Spirit in your life? (Galatians 5:22-23) Are you putting effort into your spiritual growth? How? Spiritual Growth: Do you see areas where God has grown you, but also areas where you need to mature? (2 Peter 3:18, Philippians 1:9-11) 8. Evaluate Your Priorities and Stewardship Time and Resources: How are you managing your time, talents, and treasures? Are your priorities in line with God's kingdom purposes? (Matthew 6:33, 1 Corinthians 10:31) Generosity and Stewardship: Are you generous with what God has entrusted to you, not only in finances but also in your time and abilities? (2 Corinthians 9:6-8, Luke 6:38) 9. Seek the Holy Spirit's Conviction and Guidance Holy Spirit's Role: Invite the Holy Spirit to search your heart, convict you of any unconfessed sin, and guide you into truth. Trust in the Spirit's work to help you grow in Christ-likeness. (Psalm 139:23-24, John 16:13) Response to Conviction: How do you respond when the Holy Spirit convicts you? Are you willing to obey, even when it is difficult? (Romans 8:14, Galatians 5:16-18) 10. Set Goals for Spiritual Growth Action Plan: Based on your evaluation, set specific, measurable, attainable goals for your spiritual growth. These could involve areas of Bible study, prayer, service, or outreach. Accountability: Consider seeking an accountability partner or mentor who can help you stay focused on your growth and provide support. (Proverbs 27:17, Galatians 6:1-2)

Show Notes: Your Authority as a Citizen of Heaven Host: Ambassador Elisha Episode Overview In this powerful episode, Ambassador Elisha dives deep into the authority believers have as citizens of heaven. He shares how the enemy constantly tries to prevent the truth from being revealed—but ultimately fails. This episode is a wake-up call to understand and exercise your God-given authority. Key Highlights • The Battle for Truth (00:30) The enemy fights to suppress truth, but the truth always prevails. The media is often filled with misleading information—so where do we turn for truth? • The True Source of Identity (02:52) Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. To know who you truly are, look to Jesus, not society. >> Practical steps to discovering your identity: reading the Word, listening to teachings, and communing with the Holy Spirit. • Jesus' Authority and What It Means for You (05:23) Matthew 28:10—Jesus declares that all authority in heaven and earth has been given to Him. Just like you have authority over your own home or car, Jesus has authority over the earth. • Your Role in Changing the World (09:15) The solution to the world's problems isn't far—it's within those called to bring change. Many people are assigned by God to influence sectors like politics, education, and media but don't realize their role yet. • Instead of complaining about problems, recognize that you are the solution. Luke 10:19—The Power Given to You (11:42) Jesus has given His followers authority over all the power of the enemy. Transformation begins with one person; just as one person spread COVID-19 worldwide, one person can also spread truth and change lives. ° A Testimony of Faith and Healing (12:40) Ambassador Elisha shares a moving testimony of a pregnant woman who was critically ill but experienced miraculous healing through prayer. This powerful story reinforces the reality of spiritual authority and faith in action. Final Thoughts You are not just here to exist—you were created to rule, reign, and dominate. The authority of Jesus has been given to you, and it's time to step into your divine purpose. Stop waiting for change—be the change.

This week on PivotMe, April dives into a critical but often overlooked aspect of success: positioning. Success isn't just about crossing the finish line—it's about putting yourself in the right environment, building habits, and stacking the deck in your favor. With humor, personal anecdotes, and actionable tips, April explores how small, intentional choices prepare you for big opportunities. Key Takeaways: Preparation Meets Opportunity: Luck isn't random; it's what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Are you setting yourself up for those moments? Positioning matters in every area of life—business, health, relationships. Micro-Decisions Shape Success: Success isn't a single event but the result of daily habits and choices. Identify small actions—“lead indicators”—that align you with your goals. Stacking the Deck: Put yourself in rooms where opportunities exist. For example, joining groups, attending events, or even having a coffee with someone in your desired field. Avoid blaming bad luck when you haven't positioned yourself for good luck. Positioning is Proactive: Whether it's building a better relationship, health goals, or career advancement, it's about the effort you make before the opportunity arises. Example: A client who wanted to meet a partner but never left the house wasn't positioning for success, unlike someone who actively joined social activities. Your Role in Luck: Stop overestimating others' “luck” while underestimating your potential. As Seneca said, "Luck Is What Happens When Preparation Meets Opportunity." Quotes: "Preparation meets opportunity. Are you preparing for success, or just waiting for luck to show up at your doorstep?" "Position yourself for success—the overnight kind. Those usually take about 10 years." How are you positioning yourself for success? Success isn't just about goals; it's about the systems, habits, and environments you create. Don't wait for opportunity to knock—position yourself to hear it when it does. Want to be part of a transformative experience for entrepreneurs and leaders?

Start Your Transformation Now In today's episode, we're diving into a powerful and eye-opening conversation that could transform the way you navigate your spiritual path. We'll unpack the truth about spiritual leaders - their influence, their limitations, and the often-overlooked consequences of misusing spiritual teachings. This isn't just about calling out charlatans and ego-driven gurus; it's about empowering you to discern the difference between authentic guidance and those who exploit spirituality for personal gain. You'll discover why discernment is your most essential tool, how the limitations of those you follow can shape your own journey, and why reclaiming your personal power is critical to living in alignment with your highest self. If you've ever questioned the intentions of the spiritual leaders you follow or sought clarity on who you can truly trust, this episode will provide the insights you need to protect your energy, avoid deception, and embrace the wisdom within yourself.

In this transformative episode of Dr. Tami Talks, Dr. Tami unpacks the profound differences between sympathy, empathy, and compassion, and why compassion is the ultimate tool for personal and relational growth. Rooted in ancient wisdom traditions and enriched by her own experiences, Dr. Tami reveals how stepping beyond sympathy and empathy can unlock human potential and pave the way for radical results in your life and the lives of others.Discover how compassion fosters empowerment, promotes co-creation, and serves as the regenerative fuel for your next evolution. Whether you're a caregiver, coach, or simply someone looking to elevate your relationships and self-mastery, this episode offers groundbreaking insights to transform how you show up in the world.Key Takeaways:Sympathy Constrains Power: Sympathy creates a hierarchy that disempowers the recipient and locks them into a cycle of helplessness.Empathy's Limits: While well-intentioned, empathy often reinforces suffering and learned helplessness rather than fostering transformation.Compassion as Empowerment: Compassion honors the human experience and suffering but recognizes and amplifies the power within each individual to rise above challenges.The Neuroscience of Compassion: Compassion aligns with our higher self and co-creative energy, promoting alignment, transformation, and growth.Your Role as a Creator: By choosing compassion, you can witness others' pain while holding space for their ultimate triumph, unleashing miracles in their lives and your own.Quotable Moments from Dr. Tami:“Sympathy is kind of bullshit. It locks people into a position of disempowerment, and I'm just not willing to do that anymore.” -Dr. Tami“Compassion is seeing your suffering and knowing your power. It's witnessing your pain and holding a vision for your triumph.” -Dr. Tami“When you bring compassion to others and yourself, miracles are unleashed.” -Dr. TamiReady to step into your power and embrace the transformative force of compassion?

Most listeners of The Vedic Worldview live in democracies and are all too familiar with the fact that irrespective of who is elected, there will always be a faction of the population who is disappointed and another who is pleased with the outcome. For those on the side of disappointment, many times the next thought that occurs is despondency or powerlessness. “What was my vote all for?” they might ask.While it might seem like one vote has little impact, Thom suggests otherwise. In this episode, he shares how Vedic meditators, in particular, have a unique ability to influence outcomes—not through politics, but by elevating collective consciousness.Thom explains that true power for change doesn't lie in government institutions like Congress or Parliament but in our capacity to transform consciousness.This episode revisits and continues with the themes from a previous discussion, The Crisis of Governance and Your Role in Its Resolution.

Understanding Value with John Rose on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts “Well I don't think that value in cattle is any different when it's high, or when it's low, the biggest trick is knowing what your costs are.

Ever had a manager who expects you to be Superman? No matter what you do, they keep asking for "more, more, more." Earlier in my tech career, I thought it was my manager's fault. But when I learned the art of setting healthy boundaries at work, I realized that the power to push back was in my hands. Grow Faster in Your Tech Career: https://thrivingtechnologist.com/coaching Join the Thriving Tech Community: https://thrivingtechnologist.com/community In this episode, I'll share insights gained from working with over 20 software companies as a developer, architect, and management consultant on setting effective boundaries with managers. Getting this right can bring immense peace and prevent burnout. Without clear boundaries, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by unreasonable expectations—and the result is often exhaustion or even job burnout. Managers often respect employees who assert boundaries more than those who don't. It may seem counterintuitive, but consider it: would you respect someone who allows themselves to be treated like a doormat? You can also watch this episode on YouTube.

So, full disclosure: I wanted to do an episode on networking, covering it from a perspective I haven't yet addressed. That's not always easy when you've done more than 300 episodes! I've done episodes on how to network throughout your career, but today I wanted to focus on networking as a major component of your job search strategy. I ended up deciding to pull pieces from some other episodes I've done on networking while also adding fresh, new content. So here goes. Why Should I Network? -As many as 85% of jobs are gotten through networking, with 70% or more of all jobs being in the Hidden Job Market. -Hiring managers like to hire people they know. In the absence of people the hiring managers personally know, they like to hire people who are known by people the hiring managers know, like, and trust. Many companies have a referral program for this very reason. -When you are just applying online to the company's website or via sites like LinkedIn, it is akin to being in a very crowded auditorium, trying to get the attention of the people on stage. It's very difficult. -When you have a conversation with a decision maker in the absence of a posted job, you are in competition with no one. This is where the real magic happens. -Even when you have a world-class resume and superior LinkedIn profile like the ones I create for my clients, you are still not fully dimensional. That can only happen through personal interaction. -Once you've established a relationship with someone who is in a position to hire you or advocate for you, your shortcomings as they relate to the job qualifications may become less significant. Keep in mind that, as you network, you aren't asking people for a job. You are asking for leads, referrals, suggestions – and hopefully, for them to make an introduction on your behalf. Group NetworkingIf you are looking in your local area for an opportunity, an in-person networking event may be a great option for you. Keep in mind, however, that even if you are looking for positions in another city or state or a remote opportunity, the people you meet at a local networking event will have friends, colleagues, and family members in a wide range of roles as a wide range of companies – possibly even throughout the world. My recommendation is to identify 2-3 potential group networking opportunities, then give each at least two tries before crossing them off your list. Here are some suggestions: -Chamber of Commerce -Rotary, Kiwanis, and other service clubs -Your place of worship -Your university alumni association -Meetup/Facebook events -Events you attend on your own – if there are people there, you can network -Professional association meetings (your own and others') -Educational/training event -Causes you volunteer with/are on the board of In addition, there are online networking events, especially since Covid. I belong to a group called Ellevate Women's Network – do some googling and see what you can find that interests you. How to Work the EventThis depends, of course, on the setup of the event, but I want to give you some tips and considerations. -Set a goal. Depending on the overall size and composition of the group, decide ahead of time how many people you want to speak with. Alternatively, you may decide to network until you find someone who ____ (fill in the blank). -The all-important first impression. Smile, give a strong handshake, make eye contact as you introduce yourself. Repeat the other person's name as a way to help you remember it. -First be interested, then interesting. So many people get hung up on what they are going to say. Instead, focus on getting the other person to talk. Come up with a couple of questions you can ask everyone you meet. For example: -What book that you've read has had the biggest impact on you? -Are you a dog or a cat person – and why? -What's one thing on your bucket list? The common thread here is that these aren't questions everyone else is asking, and the person you are asking them of won't have a canned answer for you. They will have to drop into the present and actually think about their answer! And you'll learn something interesting about them. -Position yourself strategically. If people are standing around, stay out of the corners of the room. A good place to stand is near the food or drink areas. If you are attending a seated event such as a luncheon, choose a table that is already about ½ full – and where the people already at the table don't seem to be in a private huddle. Don't sit with people you already know. Here are some lines you can try at the table to get the conversation going: -Who has attended the event before? (Then ask those who say “yes” what they have found most beneficial about it) -What is everyone reading right now? -Who has seen a really good movie lately? One-on-One NetworkingMost people only think of networking with the people they already know – what I call “low-hanging fruit.” Their approach sounds something like this: “I'm looking for a job. If you think of anything, let me know.” In one ear and out the other. It isn't that they don't WANT to help you, it's that you haven't really given them a WAY to help you. Identify 10-12 companies you want to work for – those that are an ideal fit with your skills, the culture you thrive in, your preferred geographic location, products/services you believe in, etc. Then used LinkedIn's Advanced Search function to find: -Someone you know who works there, or has worked there recently -Someone who is connected to the decision maker -Centers of Influence How to Steer the ConversationNetworking, when done correctly, is an exchange among equals. You are giving as much value as you are receiving. If the meeting is 30 minutes, spend the first 20-25 talking about the other person. What projects are they working on? What new challenges are they facing? What's keeping them up at night? At minimum, you are providing a listening ear. You might also be able to suggest strategies, tools, resources, vendors, or other things that will help them. Then they are likely to say something like, “We've talked about me this whole time! What's going on with you?” You will have an ask prepared, based on your research of them on LinkedIn. Here's an example: “I'm in the early stages of looking for my next opportunity, leveraging my success at COMPANY as YOUR ROLE. I saw on LinkedIn that you are connected to NAME and she's someone I would love to speak with. Would you be willing to introduce me?” Now you have given the other person a specific ask – something concrete they can do for you. They may not know that person well (or at all) and may suggest someone else they can introduce you to – and that's okay. How to Incorporate Networking into Your Job Search-Just starting out: 25% of your time should be spent in networking-based activities -Mid-career: 50% -Senior-level and executive: 75% - 100% -If you are a full-time job seeker: 30 hours per week on your job search -Part-time job seeker: 5 hours per week on your job search You can do the math.

Most of us think of laws of Nature as being those laws that determine how the environment behaves on a physical level. The Vedic worldview expands the scope of these laws to include consciousness itself, and its constantly-evolving intentions. This effectively makes Nature a conscious entity, hence why you'll often find us spelling it with a capital N.In this episode Thom gives us a masterclass on how to live in alignment with the laws of Nature, taking into consideration not just the variability of the physical laws of nature, with a small n, but also the ever-changing intentions of Nature, with a big N.It's an approach that guarantees to reduce, and ultimately eliminate suffering from our lives.
