Spiritual Foundations "Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin." Romans 4:7–8 Some people think that if they were more "right" with God, then He would hear their prayers. For example, they sometimes believe that if they had not quarreled with their wives or had those bad thoughts about their boss earlier in the day, then God would answer their prayers. But I have good news: God is not like that. Tip of the Week: Hire Your Own Personal Chef… Cheap!

Spiritual Foundations If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus[a] from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you." Romans 8:11 You can get out of a state of fatigue, discouragement, and depression… you don't have these things, you create them. Your thoughts, and especially your words, always empower some form of spiritual activity. Want energy, joy, and enthusiasm? Don't wait for these things to "happen to you"… you make them happen.

Featured Segment: 5 Crucial Keys That Unlock The Doors of Destiny Did you ever feel like the door to your destiny is just locked? Like you can't get through no matter how hard your try. Maybe the answer isn't to try harder. Maybe the answer is to get the keys to the door. Your destiny is predetermined… by you. Design it. Anyone can unlock the doors of destiny, by using these 5 Crucial keys. Key 1: Purpose What is the meaning of your life? What does "Interview With The Vampire" have to do with your life purpose? You must know the larger story you are part of. For me, it is "to glorify god by living life fully alive, taking my deepest enjoyment from Him". Key 2: Mission How are you drawn to operate in the context of your purpose? Does your purpose change during the course of your life? How do you discover the role you play in the story? Key 3: Vision What does it mean to have a "vision"? What we can learn about vision from Walt Disney. You must know what your future "scenes" in that story look like. Key 4: Goals How will you know when you have arrived? Guys Without Goals: "I have never failed to hit a goal… because I've never set one." For you to know when the mission is truly accomplished, you must define the specific objectives you want to meet. Key 5: Take The Required Actions Summary Key 1 – Know your Purpose (What is the meaning of your life?) Key 2- Know Your Mission (What is your current assignment that serves your Purpose?)

NOTE: As we prepare to begin a new year, I am making a few changes to the way I create and deliver content to you. The first such change: the main podcast will now be published on each Monday. – Ray Edwards If you market products or services of any type, your audience, your customer list, and your workplace is filled with them: Millenials. They are maligned, misrepresented, and misunderstood. Cutting through all this noise and disinformation about the rise of tomorrow's leaders can enhance your family, your relationships, and yes… your business. In this episode: This week we turn the tables and I interview Sean – who is my c0host for this show, our company's Director of Strategic Development, and – surprise! – a Millenial. How to receive wisdom from your adult children. The surprising element of life that is vital to Baby Boomers, but very low on the priority scale for Millenials… and why understanding this is your key to connecting with them. Who are Millenials, and how are they different from other generations? Are Millennials really suffering from entitlement and narcissism? What you must know if you want your marketing messages to hit home with Millenials… and the mistakes you must absolutely avoid. Why (and how) Millenials will change the world for the better. Click here to download or listen to this episode now. Spiritual Foundations "A wise son makes a glad father." – Proverbs 15:20 "He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm." – Proverbs 13:20 Don't just teach your children, learn from them. Featured Segment: Marketing to Millenials Some fact about Millenials to set the context for our discussion: Millennials are the demographic cohort following Generation X. Most researchers and commentators use birth years ranging from the early 1980s to the early 2000s Authors William Strauss and Neil Howe believe that each generation has common characteristics that give it a specific character, with four basic generational archetypes, repeating in a cycle. In their theory, summarized in their book The Fourth Turning, Millennials will become more like the "civic-minded" G.I. Generation. Jean Twenge, the author of the 2006 book Generation Me, attributes Millennials with the traits of confidence and tolerance, but also identifies a sense of entitlement and narcissism based on personality surveys that showed increasing narcissism among Millennials compared to preceding generations when they were teens and in their twenties. The University of Michigan's "Monitoring the Future" study of high school seniors (conducted continually since 1975) and the American Freshman survey, conducted by UCLA's Higher Education Research Institute of new college students since 1966, showed an increase in the proportion of students who consider wealth a very important attribute, from 45% for Baby Boomers (surveyed between 1967 and 1985) to 70% for Gen Xers, and 75% for Millennials. But the percentage who said it was important to keep abreast of political affairs fell, from 50% for Baby Boomers to 39% for Gen Xers, and 35% for Millennials. The idea of "developing a meaningful philosophy of life" decreased the most across generations, from 73% for Boomers to 45% for Millennials. The willingness to be involved in an environmental cleanup program dropped from 33% for Baby Boomers to 21% for Millennials. In March 2014, the Pew Research Center issued a report about how "Millennials in adulthood" are "detached from institutions and networked with friends." The report says Millennials are more upbeat than older adults about America's future, and 49% of Millennials say the country's best years are ahead. Interestingly, they're the first generation in the modern era to have higher levels of student loan debt and unemployment. Most this data was obtained from this article at Wikipedia.

Sean's New Book – Highly Recommended Reading American Resurrection: The Failure of the U.S. Constitution and the Rebirth of a Nation The Constitution has failed, and most people don't even realize it. Over the past century, both Republicans and Democrats have forgotten its purpose… and our nation's great destiny. No one party is to blame. We have just forgotten the reason why our nation exists. Hidden behind misunderstood and empty party slogans, our country is caught in a confused struggle to do what is right. We have cannibalized our principles and forgotten who we are. This book is an attempt to reawaken the giant that changed the world. The ideas that the led to our nation's founding still have the power to radically change history. We only need to remember them. Liberal or conservative, this book will challenge you to see the world in a new and powerful way. Sacred cows in both parties will be put to the test. And hopefully, our nation can begin the journey back to greatness. The United States still has a destiny to fulfill in the world, the only question is… will we do what is necessary to realize that future?

Some people are waving a "stupid" flag, signaling the rest of us that they are… well… stupid. Here's how to know if you are waving "stupid flags" – and what they cost you in terms of money, repect, relationships, and opportunities. We don't leave you hanging – we'll give you some hints on …. how to stop. Spiritual Foundations How to Change Your Life, Overnight, No Matter What Tip Of the Week The Best Camera Money Can Buy Photographers mentioned: Austin Mann Dan Rubin 10 of the Best iPhone Photographers And if you're up for the 30 day challenge, post your daily iPhone (or whatever phone/camera you carry) on Instagram. Follow me on Instagram – and I can't wait to see your photos! Feature Segment: Are You Waving "Stupid Flags"? You can know if you are waving "stupid flags" that cost you money, relationships, and opportunities…. and you can learn to stop waving those flags. Here are 3 questions to ask yourself before you speak: Does what I'm saying or doing possibly sound like a complaint? STUPID FLAG! Complaining is stupid. But making a request is smart. Does what I'm saying or doing come at a cost to someone else? STUPID FLAG! Words and actions are as painful or deadly as a fist or a knife. Make sure your humor doesn't cost someone else. "Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, "I am only joking!" Proverbs 26:18-19 Does what I'm saying possibly display my ignorance? STUPID FLAG! Especially if you're about to express a heated opinion, stop and ask yourself, "How do I know this is true?" Remember that sometimes, even if you are certain you're right, speaking your opinion won't build anyone up, nor will it "impart grace to the hearer".

Maybe you've heard: giving thanks makes you feel happier and more fulfilled. There are at least 7 scientifically proven benefits to practicing the "attitude of gratitude". And right now, as we enter the Thanksgiving Holiday season, the media is filled with heartwarming stories of all we should be thankful for. Today, I'm going to suggest you be thankful for the bad stuff. The challenges. The tragedies. The pain. In today's show, we'll discover: The shocking truth about suicide rates during the holidays. The 3 dangers of "counting your blessings". The 7 scientifically proven benefits of gratitude. The 5 unconventional times to practice thankfulness. How the attitude of gratitude makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise. Why you can be thankful for the trials, and not just through them. Plus, I'll share a tip for how to get your podcast ranked higher in iTunes, quick and easy. Spiritual Foundations Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.– James 1:2-8 All those things that seem to oppose our goals are actually the raw material for achieving them. – Dan Sullivan You can be thankful for trials, and truly count it all joy, not because God is teaching you a lesson, but because when approached with faith, trials always lead to victory. God doesn't cause everything, but He can use everything. Tip Of the Week How do you get your podcast ranked higher in iTunes? It comes down to 2 key factors, according to my buddy Cliff Ravenscraft: Recent new subscribers in iTunes, using the Apple Podcast App. Recent new downloads in iTunes, using the Apple Podcast App. It is my opinion that high star ratings and favorable reviews somehow factor into the equation as well. Feature Segment: 5 Unconventional Times To Practice Thankfulness (How The Attitude Of Gratitude Makes You Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise) This is is season for bloggers and podcasters to roll out their "Thanksgiving posts". And I do believe we all have a lot to be thankful for. Of course, it's easy to be thankful when you live in a nice warm house, are privileged to indulge in gluttony, and watch multi-million dollar entertainment spectacles piped into your home virtually free of charge. Especially if you're healthy, and are in the top 10% of the world's wealthiest people. Before you argue that last point, let me assure you that if you live in any modern country, especially in the USA or Canada, you almost certainly are. Check for yourself. I'll wait. Just in case you didn't check, according to the Global Rich List website, if you make $14,000 per year in the USA, you're in the top 9.52% of the richest people in the world by income. So get grateful. The Shocking Truth About Suicide Rates During The Holidays Normally, this is where a blogger or podcaster would tell you about suicide rates surging up dramatically during the holidays. The convetinal wisdom is that we should exercise great discipline in being thankful during this time of year, because otherwise, we may, like so many, slip into depression. The problem with this is that it's simply wrong. Suicides do not go up during the holidays. They are, in fact, at their lowest rates of the year. But don't just take my word for it: The Health Central website says: There is a well known reduction in the suicide rate on major public holidays (including non-religious). Many studies in different Western countries have found the drop is even more pronounced during the Christmas to New Year's stretch. Read the whole article here. The Wall Street Journal looked into this a few years ago, and their conlusion is that suicides dip in the winter, and peak in the spring. They back it up with solid reearch: Studies from around the world suggest the key factor is climate, rather than the calendar. In the U.S. from 1999 to 2004, the six highest months in terms of suicides per day were March through August, not in that order, with a peak in July, according to my analysis of numbers provided by the CDC. (The seasonal variation isn't extreme; the daily averages range from 76.3 suicides in December to 87.6 in July.) Other northern hemisphere countries such as Switzerland and Lithuania exhibit the same trend as the U.S. Suicide rates rise in England and Wales on hotter days, according to a study this year. In Singapore, near the equator, there was little seasonal effect. In the southern hemisphere, suicide rates peak in December. Climate's role isn't totally understood; some researchers have linked suicide's seasonality to the amount of sunshine. What do we conclude? One obvious possibility is that becuase people are practicing gratitude more intetionally during the holidays, they are less likely to kill themselves. So that's a big point in favor of "the attitude of gratitude". However, don't skip this next part, because I want you to know… The 3 Surprising Dangers Of "Counting Your Blessings" Denial and gratitude are not the same thing. If you're swimming in the alligator tank, all the gratitude in the world is unlikely to keep you from being some lizard's dinner. Giving thanks only for the "good stuff" can bottle up poisonous thinking and emotions. It suppresses, refuses to deal with, and thereby strengthens, the power of unresolved pain. Your glib attiude and lack of empathy can hurt other people. You must be sensitive to what is happening with the people around you. Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing. Proverbs 27:14 A man's spirit will endure sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear? Proverbs 18:14 The 5 Unconventional Times To Practice Thankfulness When you a depressed. When you are lonely. When you are ill. When you lose someone you love. When tragedy strikes. How has "the attitude of gratitude" helped you deepen your faith… how has it make you healthier, wealthier, and wiser? How To Help Subscribe to the show in iTunes and give us a rating and review.

When it comes to productivity, there is no shortage of advice. The problem is it's often the same advice, repackaged with a bright new wrapper. Nothing new inside. And there's no problem with that. Often, we need to hear the same advice presented differently, at different periods in our life, before it "clicks" and we finally "get" it. But sometimes, we need something truly different, something that rises above the normal, and begins to look more like a revolution than an evolution. Today's "7 Shocking Productivity Hacks" may not seem new at first, but the extremes to which I will advise you to take these measures is, at least, something outlandishly more radical than what most would recommend. When you listen to today's show, you'll discover: How you can finally conquer your overflowing email inbox, once and for all, guaranteed. For free. The devastatingly effective method that ensures you never receive another unwanted phone call. A radical, but powerful method for getting rid of "dead weight" friends and acquaintances who are dragging you down… without making them feel judged, and without hurting their feelings. The almost magical technique to prevent writer's block, plus multiply your creativity, energy, and productivity by a factor of at least 7 … maybe 10. How to eliminate – totally and permanently – the #1 way other people waste your time. How to slash unwanted interruptions, meetings, and junk mail from your life, with one simple, bold "directive." The single sentence (that you will come up with) that will erase any excuse you have for wasting a single minute of your time on someone else's priorties, for the rest of your life. How God can set you free from self-destructive habits, Plus, I'll share a resource that helps you improve your marketing. That's all comin' up on this week's show! Spiritual Foundations If you're breathing, you are tempted by various kinds of self-destrcutive behavior. It may be overeating, drinking, drugs, sex … or seemingly "lesser" sins like compulsive gaming TV watching, or even being "grumpy" all the time. God will set you free from these and any other self-destructive behavior, also known by the less popular term, "sin". How do we know this? There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." -Romans 8:1 Don't get tripped up if your Bible says, "who do not walk accoirding to the flesh but according to the Spirit." Some translations, such as the New King James, include that line but it isn't in the oldest, most reliable Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. (NOTE: Sean thought it might be a good idea for me to point out that not everyone agrees that those are the most reliable manuscripts…. I explain more about this in the show.) Now. Back to our topic – that verse. Notice the tense: "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." So don't get all filled with guilt when you are tempted to sin. Just don't engage in the self-destructive behavior. Having the thought is not a sin. Acting on it is. As it was explained once to me: "You can stop birds from landing in the tree, but you can stop them from building a nest." The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is inside you now, and that means you have the power of Christ to resist the temptation. And lest you fall into a "shame spiral", just remember that even when you do give in, when you fail, you are still "the righteousness of God" in Christ. And there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. As you become more aware of how Jesus has cloaked you in His righeousness, and you see more of the Spirit living in you, you will not keep on sinning. You will not keep up the habits that destroy you. You have the power to "go and sin no more" – but only after you experience the reality of His Grace.
