BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!! 📣 In today's episode, Dr. Park and Clint have a big announcement to make at the end of their podcast, and you won't want to miss it. They will also discuss how overworking can lead to major health problems and even death.

The Big Idea—A new global study published on May 17th, 2021, by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Labour Organization says that working more than 55 hours per week is now the leading occupational hazard—and significantly increases the chances of early death.

If you are working more than 50 hours per week, it's worth stopping to identify what your personal reasons may be.

(1) Do you live on a budget and control your personal spending habits?
(2) Do you long for the office to escape problems in your personal life?
(3) How much of your identity is tied to status, position, career, or how much you earn?

I (Clint) mix in plenty of fiction between my life and leadership books. But rarely does a fiction novel strike me as having profound insight on life. Have you read The Picture of Dorian Gray? What were your thoughts?

"What do astronauts, Olympic champions, and Nobel laureates do differently that allows them to achieve at such a high level? High achievers share the same four attributes: intrinsic motivation, perseverance, strong foundation, constantly learning through informal means. The key to their success is that they do all four of these things at the same time." - Ruth Ginsburg Gotian

In today's episode, Dr. Ruth shared her journey of writing her latest book, "The Success Factor - Developing the Mindset & Skillset for Peak Business Performance."

Being transparent is key! 🔑 💯 Transparency increases credibility and accountability, and that's huge when you're in a leadership role. 🙏

So why is transparency an important part of leadership? Transparent leaders are open and honest with their teams. They want their people to have input on important decisions, and that means they need to share information freely, so everyone is informed and involved.

That does not mean that transparent leaders tell their team everything all the time. For example, you wouldn't want to share details about someone else's performance review.

When you develop the habit of transparency, you create a more meaningful relationship, you empower your team, you create efficient problem solving, you develop higher employee morale and job satisfaction.

It all boils down to results. Transparent leaders find it easier to get the best out of their team.

Comment below and let us know how you create transparency in your team. 👇

There are seasons of life where nothing is happening, and nothing is growing—these are desert seasons. No matter how hard we try, we don't see any progress. Maybe you are in a season like that now.

There are years of parenting when it feels like no matter what you do, your child is lost. There are years of marriage when external forces press in so hard you don't know how you will make it. There are seasons of work where you may feel like your boss doesn't appreciate you, and all your hard work is not paying off. There are seasons of health where the best you can do is survive another day.

While these times in life require extreme effort with seemingly no results, they often produce the inner "fruit" of grit, persistence, faithfulness, loyalty, discipline, love, and selflessness.

In today's episode, Dr. Park and Clint discuss how to learn from life's lessons and the impact that it can have on who you become.

How you approach life says a lot about who you are. There are some who are content to passively coast through, hoping they land where they need to be and know what to do when the time comes. Then there are others who make active choices to understand who they are and what they want and set the goals that will keep them moving in the right direction. But a big part of having a successful life is learning how to cope with the lessons that life has to teach us.

Join us tomorrow, where Dr. Parker Houston and Clint Herndon talk about learning from the lessons of life and the impact that it can have on who you become.

15/01/2022

! In this week's , we have a little bit of a different topic for all of you. We talk a lot about goal setting and accomplishing things. But, one of the things that Dr. Parker Houston and Clint talk a lot about is parenting and how to become better at it.

So today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Clay Cranford with Cyber Safety Cop. Clayton is a retired Sergeant from the Orange County Sheriff's Department, CA and founder of Cyber Safety Cop. Clayton is one of the nation's leading law enforcement educators on social media, child safety, and behavioral threat assessments. Clayton is the author of the definitive book on cyber safety for families, "Parenting in the Digital World." He teaches parents and students how to avoid online threats, such as cyberbullying, online predators, po*******hy, and social media addiction.

Clayton shared, "The average teenager is online six to eight hours a day. However, that number was before COVID and the lockdown. Now we have children and teens who are online more than they are asleep. There are too many challenges that they have to face online. And, those pressures in those lead to severe problems. I travel all over the United States talking to parents, students, community leaders, and more. And what's crazy is that I may be the only person who talks about these topics within internet safety. People tend to shy away from it, but I have dealt with many families with children who were exposed at a very young age, and it's radically changed their lives. It's led to addiction, perceptions about sexuality, and health issues damaging for children. I have seen teen after teen that it has impacted their future and future relationships. There are some real issues there. It's a drug. It stimulates their brains in the same way street drugs do."

Planning ahead, setting priorities, and being intentional with your time are always important. However, too much planning can rob us of the joy found only in the present moment and the serendipity of watching life unfold with events we could never have predicted or planned. How do you find balance in life?

"Some people live 80 years, but most people live one year 80 times." -

Have you had a chance to listen to our most recent ? This past week, we talked about "Checking the Dashboard of Life." It's easy to start the with goals. However, are they obtainable? Are they something that you need to be focused on?

Check out our podcast and let us know what you think.

In today's episode, Dr. Houston and Clint discuss "Checking the Dashboard of Life."

The new year is a great time to look back on 2021 at what you did, your successes, your mistakes. And it's an opportunity right now to take the new year as an excellent marker to say, where can I course correct? Where can I be more intentional, proactive about where I want to go with my life, and not neglect these indicator lights. So if you've got something that's trying to get your attention, don't ignore it.

One great way you can take stock of how your year has gone is to do a quick check of your life dashboard. Consider the following life accounts (add your own accounts if you want), and rank each of them from 1-10 for how satisfied you are with each area of your life (10 being the best). Then write down one or two things that would cause that account to improve. For example, if your health account is low, you might write, "lose 10 pounds."

✨ Health

✨ Personal Growth
✨ Spiritual Life

Christy Wright is the #1 bestselling author, personal growth expert, and host of The Christy Wright Show. She's also the founder of Business Boutique, which equips women to make money doing what they love. Regardless of where you are today, Christy will help you build confidence in yourself, strengthen your faith, and become the person God created you to be.

In today's episode, Christy shared her journey of writing her newest book, "Take Back Your Time."

Christy Wright said, "The black hole of insecurity cannot be solved by doing more."

"What if balance isn't so much something you do. How you balance it all perfectly. What if it's something you become where you could be balanced and still be busy, where you could become a balanced person in an out-of-balance world where balance looks more like peace, being confident in your choices, being proud of how you spend your time. Actually enjoying your life. I think that's what we're really after when we say we want balance, and it turns out the path to that is not productivity. It's not doing more waking up earlier, having a better time management app being more efficient, productive, multitasking. That's not what leads to the thing that we really want. And so I wanted to dig to the deeper issue below the issue, the deeper desires we have going on in us. When we talk about time, we talk about balance and say, Hey, let's talk about what's really going on and what really gets in the way. And let's fix it there. And then that, of course, will affect our calendar and the practical side of things. And so, in this book, I really set out to redefine this word, reclaim it and redefine it. And so the way that the thesis of the whole book is life balance is not doing everything for an equal amount of time. It's about doing the right things at the right time. And when you do the right things at the right time, You will actually feel that sense of balance you've been looking for, but here's the great news you get to decide what's right for you." - Christy Wright

Christy shared five action steps detailed in her latest book because we can not grow when we stay comfortable, and so you're going to have to get uncomfortable to grow.

(1) Figure out what matters.
(2) Stop doing what doesn't matter.
(3) Create a calendar that reflects what matters.
(4) Protect what matters with boundaries and say no.
(5) Be present for what matters, be where your feet are, whenever you are there.
