T&P 55: Leading is Listening

A vital component to great leadership is listening! Jesus was an active listener, and He responded with empathy, solved people's problems, commended them for their faith only after He'd given them His ear.Register for the latest information about Qualified (A Mastermind on Leadership), coming soon, at Qualified Mastermind.

T&P 54: Time Is On My Side

Time is a precious commodity, and how we spend it—invest it!—will determine whether we have the abundant life Jesus promised. I refer in this episode a powerful classic book, Spiritual Leadership: Principles of Excellence for Every Believer by J. Oswald Sanders. You can find it here: Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders. I only touch on Time in this episode, but this book is rich in leadership principles. The old blog post I allude to is here: A Different Drummer (Cheaper Than Therapy Quilting). I so enjoyed this venture into blog writing about fifteen years ago. After Sam passed away, I lost the fervor for it until the Lord impressed upon me to do a podcast. You'll catch glimpses of my humor and wry way of looking at the world, using Scripture to inform all the things we were experiencing at that time. What a beautiful season! God is sooo good!And as always, find me at Talk and Pray for Life and Business. If you click on "Podcast" in the menu, it'll lead you to a place to get added to my newsletter/email list. I'd love to have you join my community!!

T&P 53: Back to School: Biology

Back to School: Session 2! Today we're talking about Biology. What is one of the basics of biology? Growth, and all things being equal, it might be inevitable...but we can derail the growth process by poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and bad mental attitudes.

It's back to school time, and along with it a vocabulary lesson of 8 toxic words that sabotage you...whatever your goals are, these 8 words impose limits or hijack your progress. And God has lots to say about our words!

T&P 51: The Parking Lot

The parking lot doesn't sound like a great place to store ideas, nor does it bode well for feelings that threaten to overwhelm or discourage you.

T&P 50: 6 or 60

Are you ever just... TIRED? Sometimes, I get bone weary in my body, mind, and spirit! And in those moments I often have a decision to make. Do I "keep on keepin' on"? or wait another day when I might feel better? This isn't about procrastination! It's about finding the courage to finish, even when it's hard. You can do it!

T&P 49: I Like the Pretty Parts

Gardens, culinary delights, goals...we love the pretty parts! The ugly parts are hard, and hard work, and most of us avoid them like the plague! I submit the ugly parts increase the value of the pretty parts, and if we'll lean in, we'll find the joys and the rewards in both.Sign up to get the podcast delivered to you inbox or to check out transcripts and blogs with related and additional content at https://www.talkandpray.us/podcast,There's still time to enroll in the current Mastermind, His Power at Work.

T&P 47: Minimum Man

A nickname of a family member—Minimum Man—became the teaching moment for a strong work ethic! What does it mean to have a work ethic? And what's with the trend of "quiet quitting"?You'll be surprised to learn that an ADHD strategy is the answer to quiet quitting or the impulse to do less than our best work.  References to Genesis, Paul's letters to the Corinthians, Ephesians and Colossians, all have words of wisdom about our work.And the prayer Moses prayed in Psalm 90 finishes up this episode!If you want to receive the podcast in your in-box, sign up at https://www.talkandpray.us/podcastThe Talk & Pray website is getting some updates over the next few weeks.

T&P 46: Out of the Habit

James Clear's Atomic Habits offers a systematic approach to building good habits and has served me well. I find that habits can rescue me from being stuck, or easing away from tried and true practices can create stuck until I revisit what worked before! I found three habits in particular that help me get going when I've plateaued.Here are three hints for the habits: The Sounds of Silence, The Rhythm is Gonna Get You, and I Dare You to Move!Atomic Habits is available at Amazon and other retailers.My daughter's business, Lemon Grove Content Creation (https://www.lemongrovecontent.com/) is a great resource for that someone who can take a look at your business with you!Don't forget to sign up for the Four Ways to Reignite Your Quiet Time at https://www.talkandpray.us/reignite.
