 MYST 48 Tony Sherman: Learn How Success Brought Failure, and then Greater Success! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 49:05

Tony’s hosts the Impact Teams Radio podcast. Here are links to the show and website: Tony recommends: Talent is Never Enough, by John Maxwell    Also, he suggests using a Kindle for ease of transportation, the ability to bring your entire library and that it can read your books to you.

As a transcription service, Naturally Speaking is lacking–at least when it is not being correctly used. (I know, I know. Tony wasn’t wearing his headset, and wasn’t talking directly to the system. In reality, it is a very good program. I’ve used it in the past.)     Here is what his program thought he was saying: “Or you you were starting approach every (because I have and there is a is is there is a slot in the satellite is is is is okay but sometimes I just need to write down and so is is is in you and is in you and is a very simple form and is the sound I hear an American system on one of these are noisy laid off country is the media and the rest of the culture actions are the exception of when you have the culture we will see people I like so is is a colossal policy with the person you are you are so small you shouldn’t worry what is happening but if you looking for America where most of us spend our very sexual people cracked the code’s success in designing the only world’s and my address is in you through the words the world where saying a word is writing as they were very sexual people cracked the code success in designing the only reason the last of I showed you the unfortunately and I is my way to the authors yes you are craving to you so I moved over to you as you will safety – Phoenix Suns are is is a you when you sit around talking and just know is an island, my favorite color carries one of the tricks is a great places to buy a reasonable price is you are so is there is still you don’t get 80 and guide you as you are in my you and I would actually say jelly babies if I was as a unless it’s easy to his family that in the person and you are also evasive so in English as we scary and then you will jelly the is you and your sense of you have a concentrated in first is shared ß and you hours ago 92 related colors and slayer and she’s a complementary flagrant and t...

 MYST 47 Trevitorial: Building Success, and Simple Diet Hacks | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 33:12

Success begets success. (Anonymous) Amy, like many people, had a large amount of debt. But with the guidance of Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University, she and her Navy husband were able to pay off $25,000 in just six months, using effective and proven techniques. Her blog, Woman Enriched, helps other people find ways to save money and increase their personal peace and happiness.  And on September 16, 2014, Amy will launch her next platform for change: her podcast, The Family Knot. Designed primarily to help other military families, it will give greater attention to the special challenges that are faced by the military members and the families who support them. In last week’s MYST Trevitorial, Neil, one of the hosts of the Warp Ten podcast, asked about how to eat healthy while enduring off shifts at work. This week, Dave Westwood, creator and host of the New and Noteworthy podcast, expands that to ask how to eat healthy when driving on the job, or when trapped in your cubicle. (Note: Dave interviewed me for his podcast, which was released as his fifth episode. If you want to hear my story, and Dave excellent interview style, you can hear it here. Also, after you listen to the New and Noteworthy show or the Family Knot, show the hosts some podcast-love and go to iTunes and leave a rating and review.) I give some concrete advice and diet hacks to help anyone stay on track. If you are like Dave, Neil, myself, or any of the 60% people in the USA who are struggling with weight management, you need to listen to these ideas. I also gave Dave–and all of you–and assignment. If you want to learn more simple and effective diet hacks, you need to read the book “Mindless Eating” by Brian Wansink, Ph.D. The book is very easy and fun to read. It explains why we eat the way we do, how our brains trick us into eating too much and how we can turn the tables (pun intended) on our brain and trick it into being satisfied with the correct amount of food. He has two books. Total disclaimer: these links to Amazon are my affiliate links. When you go there and buy one or both of these books, I will receive a smalle commission, which will not increase your price, but it will help me keep this show running.

 MYST 46 Amy Robles: You Can Regain Financial Stability! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 36:00

Amy, like many people in the US and elsewhere, had a large amount of financial debt. She learned how to dramatically reduce her debts and start to create financial freedom. From the lessons she learned, in just six months, she was able to pay off @$25,000 of her debt and she knows that her future is more secure. She can live happier knowing that she has regained control over that powerful part of her life. Her blog was an offshoot of these lessons, and she started her blog to help solifiy the lessons that she learned. She now is teaching others similar tactics through her blog (Woman Enriched.) Her upcoming interview-based podcast “The Family Knot” target military spouses, and helps them dealing with the challenges of military life. Families are busy. Military families can be overwhelmed, especially during a deployment. Amy has lived through that and believes her experiences will make other lives easier. Amy learned her financial skills at Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University which can be found here. Twitter @ItsAmyRobles Amy wants everyone to read Zig Ziglar (as do I!) But she also reads and listens to As I mentioned, here is my recipe for Lasagna (Two Ways) and my Bourbon Pecan Pie. —————————————– Music composed and performed by Jason Shaw, courtesy of Audionautix.com Voiceover courtesy of Matt Young. Matt is a professional voiceover artist.

 MYST 45 Trevitorial: Backbone or Wishbone? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 25:14

  Chester says that we need more “backbone” to be strong and less “wishbone”. He right. And…..wrong. A bird needs their wishbone for one distinc reason: it provides skeletal stability which enables flight. A wishbone gives the power of flight. I think a backbone is critical to stand up to stressors, but a wishbone helps you break free from your daily bonds and fly to new heights. Chester’s book brings the message that every person and group has validity and that when we work together, we can accomplish much more then we we work devisively.   Also, in the second half of this show, Neil, of the Warp Ten Podcast called into my SpeakPipe message system with a quest about how to handle the challenge of working odd shifts when trying to lose weight and increase physical fitness. You can listen to his podcast (with his co-host, Joe) on iTunes or Stitcher. I neglected to mention two other weight loss and fitness methods, but that is only because they are mentioned in many other shows. But if you need the link to LoseIt or Fitbit, well, there they are. I credit both LoseIt and Fitbit with my continuing success! Also, just as a side note. If anyone noticed slightly odd audio sounds, or maybe the sounds of birds, I was the victim of my own poor planning when I recorded this Trevitorial. I had some carpenters working in out basement. They hammered, ran power saws and dropped wood frequently. But since I needed to get this show out on time, I went out to our patio. Our windy patio, with many birds. I tried to filter the worst of the wind out, but not degrade the audio too much. Planning. So very important in life! ————————————- Music composed and performed by Jason Shaw, courtesy of Audionautix.com Voiceover courtesy of Matt Young. Matt is a professional voiceover artist.

 MYST 44: Dr. Chester Goad: Find Success Even After Initial Disappointment! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 44:46

Chester is a “leadership geek” by his own description. He is an educator, college director of disability services, and former legislative aide who helped co-author Tennessee’s “Dyslexia is Real”. He  believes that when something is broken, and needs fixing, someone needs to step up and do what they can to find a solution. As director of disability services on his campus, he hosted an ongoing film festival (one movie was  “Lars and the Real Girl”) and it was poorly attended. But because of his “dog with a bone” attitude, he stuck with it. Several weeks later, he learned that an anonymous community member had attended the festival and agreed with what he was trying to accomplish. That anonymous audience member started an endowment ($500,000) to support his work with disability services. He was reminded that you never know when that “one right person” will hear your message at the exact right time. Never despair if initial successes are not overwhelming, but keep working toward your goals! He wrote a book, soon to be released, which tries to find the unity of spirit that is currently missing in the halls of governments as well as among the people. Life and politics have become devisive and Chester believes that greater good will result by changing from “red states” and “blue states” but by blending, combining and collaborating and becoming “purple states.” Chester suggests that you try Dr. Enuf soda when you next visit Tennessee! Some books that he reads and recommends are: My Homemade Artisanal Bread : My recipe (for 4 one-pound loaves) Whisk together: 3 cups tepid water (95-105F) 1 tablespoon yeast (any dry yeast) 1 tablespoon salt (any type) Stir in 6.5 cups of flour. Any flour works, but 100% whole wheat is a challenge. Mixing white with whole wheat and/or rye work well. I usually use at 4 cups general purpose white with 2.5 cups of whole wheat. As long as you use a total of 6.5 cups of flour, you will end up with bread. Stir just until everything is wet and combined. Do not knead–ever. Cover loosely, and let rise on the counter for 2-3 hours (if you forget overnight, don’t worry, it will not ruin the bread.) Place in the refrigerator overnight. The next day, cut 1/4 of the dough out. Dust with flour. Working quickly, form the dough into a ball. Let the dough rise for 40 minutes. These make free-form round loaves, not rectangles.  Do not bake in traditional bread pans. Preheat oven and baking stone to 450. Boil 2 cups of water, and pour into an oven safe dish and place in the oven while pre-heating. (The water creates steam to help develop a very crunchy crust. It will work without the steam, but the crust isn’t as nice.) When the dough has risen, make several shallow cuts in the surface of the dough. Sprinkle corn meal on baking stone and place dough on the corn meal. Bake for 35 minutes. The dough will keep in the fridge for up to 14 days and as it ages, the flavor develops into more of a sour dough character. When the last of the dough is used, do not wash the container. Immediately refill with the ingredients for more bread (this will quickly develop that wonderful sour dough flavor. ————————————- Music composed and performed by Jason Shaw, courtesy of Audionautix.com Voiceover courtesy of Matt Young. Matt is a professional voiceover artist.

 MYST 43 Trevitorial: Fix What You Are Doing Wrong, and Control Your Cravings | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 18:11

Brad tells us that before we can improve, we need to know what we are doing wrong.  And that seems so basic, but people forget that. And sometimes it takes someone to tell us what we are doing wrong. That is hard to hear, but can be even harder to say. Meron Bareket did that for me, and helped me make a huge improvement in my podcast. Also, Debbie left me a voice message on SpeakPipe about controlling cravings, and I give my thoughts in the second half of the show.

 MYST 42 Brad Stillmank: How to Turn YOUR Hobby Into a Business! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 31:35

Brad Stillmank had a hobby. He loved beer, and loved brewing it. He started by making 5 gallons as a time. He wanted to get better, and started pestering local professional brewers. Over time, he learned every aspect of the business and now has the largest brewing system in Green Bay. He makes award-winning Wisco Disco, his flagship beer. Here is stands in front of the new Stillmank brewery, a 30 barrel system. He went from 5 gallons at a time to 930 gallons. He took his hobby, his passion, and slowle, meticulously, turned it into a profitable business, with the help of his wife, Erin, as well as family and friends. Even if you are not making beer, you can do what Brad did. Stillmank Brewing Company’s website. Charlie Papazian’s Complete Joy of Homebrewing is a classic book for anyone who wants to learn how to brew their own beer. Brad’s beer of choice, if he can’t have his own.

 MYST 41: Trevitorial–Slow Down to Succeed Faster! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 16:31

Alistair told us on Monday about how his parents move he and his sister from Dublin Ireland to the mountains in the west of the Island. They created an adventure camp, away from the non-stop action of the city. It allowed him to slow down. Breathe. Focus. And succeed.

 MYST 40: Alastair McDermott: Tackling Fears by Asking for Help | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 56:15

Note: Alastair and I talked via Skype for over 90 minutes. Alastair is committed to supporting the fight against suicide and helping bring depression out of the shadows and make the topic a common and routine discussion. We recorded this talk on July 31, 2014 which was 12 days before American actor Robin Williams took his life due in part to depression. Alastair was concerned that this talk would be considered building on that event, but in reality, this topic needs to be open and honest. People commit suicide every day. We hope that his participation in that Irish bike ride will help people open up and talk before taken final actions. Alastair McDermott is an engineer at heart, but he is also able to talk to people, to help people see their options and to take action! Earlier this year, he, his girlfriend Anne-Marie and over 2-3000 other riders hopped on their bicycles and rode around Ireland, in a “Cycle Against Suicide” ride. He rode it, without prior training. Are you this committed to an idea? Could you do this?

 MYST 38: Ani Alexander, the Accidental Author! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 36:14

Banking. Telecom Industry. Amazon best-selling author. Blogger. Podcaster. Ani Alexander was all of those, but never planned on becoming an Amazon best-selling author of fiction. It just happened because she is “opportunistic”. She has traveled through Europe, speaks five languages (with three different alphabets!) and currently lives in her home country of Armenia.  In addition to being a professional author, she may be the only podcaster who lives in Armenia! One of her first short stories was published on Paulo Coelho’s blog. She learned how to podcast through Meron Bareket’s Inspiring Innovation Podcast Webinar and Bootcamp.  How To Build An Engaged Audience (Weekly Live Webinar). Her podcast “Write 2 B Read” is an interview-based show, where she talks with other authors to find their tips and hints to the aspiring author, or the existing author who wants to take their work to a higher level.

 MYST 37: The FIRST Trevitorial! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 15:03

Monday’s guest, John Lee Dumas, provides the spark for today’s show topic. It is a good one! If you have ever thought about starting something, you NEED this episode. John Lee Dumas, and his remarkable daily business podcast, can be found at Entrepreneur On Fire. But with this episode, I mark the first major changes to the show. I am bringing in a new intro and outro, featuring the phenomenal voiceover work of Matt Young. And this is the first “Trevitorial”. My wife says that I am a gifted and natural speaker. (Okay, that’s not exactly the words she uses, but I am sure that is what she means!) Her term for what I do (all too often) is that I “give a Trevitorial.” It is a combination of my thoughts, opinions, ideas and suggestions, but grounded in some rational and reasonable theories and common sense beliefs. It is me, climbing on a soap box, for all to here. But…and this is important…I have a purpose for my Trevitorial. I don’t ramble. I speak to a single topic, and as before, it will usually be a lesson that a previous guest brought up in their interview. I hope you find these shows to be information, energetic and fun. With these shows, I am giving you a chance to see the real me. I mention in the show that my “booster” shows were “overthought” and “hesitant.” I was trying to be diplomatic and keep all people happy. But that doesn’t work. For this show to work, I need two things. I need dxciting and informative guests on Monday, where I let them carry the show on the power of their voice. And I need Thursdays to be where I take the reins and let me share myself with you. Because I will share my successes and challenges in these shows. I have had great successes, but, wow, I have paid the penalty of hesitation and fear in the past. I don’t want you to do what I did! Voiceover courtesy of Matt Young.
