Open-Mindedness Unlocks Growth Keeping an open mind is a gateway to perpetual growth. Like a sponge that absorbs knowledge, staying receptive to new ideas, perspectives, and experiences expands our understanding of the world. Embrace the diversity of thoughts and beliefs around us. In doing so, we not only learn but also foster empathy and build connections with others. It's through an open mind that we discover our potential and continuously evolve. Curiosity Nurtures Wisdom Curiosity is the spark that ignites our quest for knowledge. As we cultivate a curious spirit, we unveil hidden treasures in everyday experiences. Children, with their unbridled curiosity, learn and explore fearlessly. Likewise, let us maintain that sense of wonder and inquire like a child, seeking understanding in the mysteries of life. Curiosity fuels innovation, propelling us toward new discoveries and deeper wisdom. Childlike Faith Sustains Hope Childlike faith is not blind acceptance but a resilient trust that holds onto hope. Just as a child believes in possibilities, maintaining faith in the face of challenges sustains our resilience. This faith keeps our spirits buoyant, allowing us to weather storms with unwavering optimism. Embrace faith that believes in the unseen and holds onto the goodness of the future. Let it guide us through uncertainty, fostering hope and unwavering strength. Conclusion: In embracing open-mindedness, nurturing curiosity, and sustaining childlike faith, we embrace a life rich in growth, wisdom, and resilience. May we approach each day with a mind open to learning, a heart curious for wisdom, and a faith that holds onto hope. Let us embody these virtues and journey forward, enriched by the wonders they unveil in our lives.

This book is one of the most basic, yet effective, reads that i've yet to come across. The book is titled Rhinoceros Success written by Scott Alexander. Below you will find a quick overview on what this book entails in hopes of giving you some pointed to continue dominating what you're after in life. Enjoy! Quotes  “A rhinoceros charges with singleness of purpose. All energy is directed toward the attainment of one burning desire.” → My desire is to have financial freedom in order to do what I want when I want and how I want.  “Success is there for anyone who will get off their butt and charge it down!” “We become the product of three things: the people we associate with, the books we read, and the media we listen to.” “Charge with rhinos, fly with eagles, run with cheetahs, and eat with lions. Don’t hang around with cows or sheep.” “Money is not the root of all evil—love of money is.” Don’t love money. Love what money can do for YOU and for ALL THE PEOPLE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HELP once you have it. Don't forget to pay yourself first. It's okay to be selfish at the beginning as long as your end goal is to help spread the love to those in need. 10 Characteristics of Living Like a Rhinoceros Rhinos Charge Early. Rhinos don’t sleep in late (wake up earlier—Slowly but surely) , or hit the snooze button. They jump out of bed when their “opportunity clock” sounds and charge into their day with excitement. 2. Rhinos Charge Massively After One Thing. Rhinos know the importance of charging, it is what they were made for. And how do they charge? Massively! They charge down the big goals and opportunities. They also make sure that they are only charging down one opportunity at a time. You can’t effectively charge in 2 directions. They pick one and charge at it with everything they have, then they move on to the next. 3. Rhinos Believe in Themselves. Rhinos believe that success is theirs for the taking. They expect success, and therefore they create success. 4. Rhinos Put Themselves Through Training. To achieve rhinoceros levels of success you have to be prepared for it. Mentally and physically. Rhinos read good books, surround themselves with good people, get enough sleep, eat good foods, and workout. 5. Rhinos Plan For Success. Rhinos have goals. And more importantly they create plans for achieving those goals. Once they have a plan in place they charge down everything on that plan. 6. Rhinos Are Audacious. What is there to be afraid of as a six thousand pound animal with a horn on the front of your head? Nothing! Rhinos are daring, adventurous, and bold. They believe in the saying “go for it!” 7. Rhinos Never Give Up. No matter how tough the journey is, Rhinos keep charging. They may slip and fall, but they will get back up and charge even harder. Nothing will stop them from charging down their opportunity. 8. Rhinos Like But Don’t Love Money. Money is great and rhinos will chase down as much of it as they can. However, rhinos don’t love money. They approach gathering money as a hobby, rather than a job. Rhinos are also very generous with their money. But every rhino knows that to be successful with money they must pay themselves first. 9. Rhinos Balance Work and Family. Many even try to combine the two by involving their family in their work. After all, a rhino doesn’t do work that is boring, rhinos do work that is more like a hobby. Rhinos understand that you need to love what you do to be successful. There is no better way to love the work that you do than by involving those that you love in your work! 10. Rhinos Embrace Problems. In fact rhinos love problems. Problems are a sign that you are making progress. If you don’t have any problems it means that you are not taking any action on your goals.

"Suckcess," a term that represents a journey of growth. It acknowledges that at the start, we might struggle or "suck," but with time, we improve. It's a path away from overthinking and perfectionism, where we stop wasting energy and feeling lost in our thoughts. Instead, we learn by taking action, even if it's not perfect. Suckcess means valuing completion over perfection and embracing risks to prevent future regrets. It also recognizes that waiting to feel completely "ready" can hold us back from progress. It embodies a transformative journey. It's the shift from being an overthinker and perfectionist, no longer wasting valuable energy or getting lost in thoughts. Instead, it's about learning through taking action, even if it's messy and imperfect. It's embracing the idea that completing something is more important than making it flawless. Suckcess involves embracing risks to avoid future regrets and understanding that waiting to be fully "ready" can hold us back from progress.

Support Your Immune System in Winter It's the time of year that puts your immune system through the ultimate test of strength. Luckily, there are several ways to bolster your immune system, so you can get through the season healthy and happy. In this episode we will discuss many ways to bolster your immune system and not just survive, but thrive this winter season. article discussing Germ Theory vs Terrain Theory Fruit & Veggie Defense This one may sound like common sense. But still, an estimated 9 out of 10 people don't eat enough fruits and vegetables. For your immune system to be strong it needs vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, ideally from organic plant sources. For example, berries are a rich source of polyphenols, a special type of antioxidant shown to be protective against infections. If you have a hard time getting enough fruits and veggies each day, try an organic green juice powder. Protective Probiotics Probiotics are healthy bacteria that live in your gut. They help you digest food, produce certain nutrients like some of the B vitamins, and most importantly, they play a key role in the health of your immune system. In fact, several studies have found that those who regularly consume probiotics are less likely to come down with respiratory infections. Soak up Vitamin D Your immune system depends on vitamin D to protect you from infection. A comprehensive review of 25 studies published in The BMJ (British Medical Journal) concluded that vitamin D supplementation, "protected against acute respiratory tract infection overall." Ortho Molecular and Seeking Health Vitamin D3/K2. Also a light therapy lamp for anyone suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder. Calm Stress Down To manage your stress levels, try mindful meditation, yoga, and daily exercise. Also consider CBD Oil for its ability to calm the effects of stress. Medicinal Mushrooms (Every Day Dose Coffee is yum :p ) Mushrooms contain special compounds that regulate, or balance, your immune system. So, when your immune system is weak, they strengthen it. On the other hand, if your immune system is too active, mushrooms can downregulate it. While even grocery store mushrooms have benefits, medicinal varieties include cordyceps, maitake, shiitake, tremella and turkey tail. Add to foods or supplement to support immunity. Daily Detoxification Toxins are a common reason why your immune system can underperform. Over time, heavy metals build up in the body, and many of these toxins negatively impact immunity. For example, the heavy metal cadmium displaces the mineral zinc, which is essential for a properly functioning immune system. The natural mineral zeolite can remove heavy metals and toxins, helping your body achieve optimal performance. Garlic to Fight Germs If you're a fan of garlic, you now have even more of a reason to add it to your favorite meals. Garlic contains powerful compounds that can both enhance your immune system and destroy pathogenic microbes. Specifically, scientists have found that the main component of garlic, allicin, can help your immune system fight off colds and the flu.

Life is ultimately distilled into three foundational containers/pillars, and the judicious allocation of financial resources within these three serves as the catalyst that sustains and fortifies them. Faith/Spirituality- some may describe it as personal development, searching for meaning, internal peace; also included in this container is emotional, mental well being, thought life and mindset. It is also important to include the community aspect of being around like-minded individuals as well. Physical Body- inside this container it covers not only the physcial "meat suit" we reside in, but also the chemical, hormonal and emotional parts of us humans! If we don't possess good health then what do we really have without it? Impact/Outreach- In this container deals with our innate desire to make a difference. Find a sense of purpose. Connection and belonging. New skills. Build resilience. Personal growth. Cultural experience. Find our tribe.

Basic supplements we discussed in the podcast: 1. Magnesium: Needed for many different metabolic processes in the body and good for helping with daily bowel movements and regulation. My favorites are Innate Magnesium 300 and Optimal Magnesium Plus by Seeking Health.  2. Max B-ND:This one is from Premier Research Labs. With the daily stresses we face, whether physical or mental, we tend to burn through B vitamins pretty quickly. This high energy, probiotic-fermented B vitamin complex supports the brain, liver, adrenals, and energy levels. 3. Probiotic: Gut issues are a big deal with regards to overall health and wellness. A daily probiotic can help put balance back in the gut to support a healthy gut and immune system. My favorite is Ther-Biotic Complete Daily Probiotic Powder.All three of these can be purchased on fullscript with an automatic discount.Fullscript 4.

BEING TAUGHT TO AVOID TALKING ABOUT POLITICS AND RELIGION HAS LED TO A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF POLITICS AND RELIGION. WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAUGHT WAS HOW TO HAVE A CIVIL CONVERSATION ABOUT A DIFFICULT TOPIC. That was on an infographic discovered on a social media post.

The hope is that we can help all of us own our part in the difficult and often heated discussions, to respect the other person and realize they are just as awesome and uhmazing as you are!

A few of the highlights from the episode: - Introduced a new feature called "What is your awesome thing for the week?" (encourage YOU to share with us your AWEsome Thing of the Week!) - Trusting the doctor is not fair to the provider nor you! -Melissa made a great statement, "It's not an easy thing to do to change your mindset, but it is worth it." with regards to the paradigm shift that needs to happen to stop trusting the doctor and becoming the one who is solely responsible for your own health. -Eric shared a great concept on how to approach your health by becoming as he stated, "CEO of my health".

In this episode we give you the tools and tactics to begin discovering your purpose. We also give you a fresh perspective from Sandie who is back on this episode after listening to the first episode herself. It is our prayer you will take the time to really examine this "wrecked" concept and how you could really use it to benefit you and likely many, many others! "To be wrecked begins with an experience. It pulls you out of your comfort zone and consequently out of self-centeredness." "...your old narccistic dreams begin to fade in the light of something bigger, something better." "...all things worth fighting for are hard." "Being wrecked means that everything you believe about this world, yourself, and your destiny is now in question. Because you've seen something larger" ~Jeff Goins from "Wrecked for the Ordinary A Manifesto for Misfits" The real road of meaning is messy, dirty, full of jagged rocks, broken glass combined with lot's of twists and turns! Can be long and difficult, but so so worth it! Narrow is the road that few will choose to go down. However, so worth it if you choose to be a part of something bigger. Something greater than the day to day consumerism and self pleasure! This will not be easy, but totally worth it! If your honest with yourself, you won't want it to be easy. If it were easy then every one would do it. We also talk about a Venn diagram that we converted into the "butterfly effect" (see the image on our facebook page) Please be sure to visit the facebook page for more resources that are mentioned in this episode as well.
