Life In The Blue Zone

3/19/2024
Today, the average life expectancy of an American is 76.4 years, and in 2023 over 70,000 Americans reached their 100th birthday. But in the Blue Zones, or regions of the world where people live exceptionally long lives, individuals are ten times more likely to live to 100. These places—specifically the Barbagia region of Sardinia, Italy, Okinawa, Japan, Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica; and Icaria, Greece—are packed with centenarians. (Taken From Linked Article) So what is the common denominator? Listen in to find out.

How To Get Kids Moving, NOW!

2/15/2024
Don't get me wrong any activity is beneficial organized or not. But when kids come home after dance class and lay in bed and stare at their phone they don't understand that the dance class just wasn't enough. Our children need to understand the benefits of lifelong fitness and movement. Chores are movement, walking to and from school is movement, walking the dog is movement, yard work is movement, and a family walk would be a nice way to disconnect from technology. The problem is we don't have a cooperative bunch today, but rest assurd these couch potatoes will feel the health pinch as they get older. So, let's provide ways for our kids to move and stay healthy. Buy The Power Of Consistency --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/james-burns5/support

Well it’s good to have something to do every day for sure but more importantly it’s good to know what you are going to do, how you are going to do it and how long something will take. This is known as setting goals, and with every goal there are objectives. The objectives are the baby steps we take to reach our goals every day. We also have to figure out what we want to do and why we want to do it. That’s purpose. please stay with the podcast to the end as I share some activities for you to use as you practice Consistency.

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 11: Listening To Understand

11/6/2023
We all like to be heard; and some of us like to be heard a bit too much. We can have a tendency to inundate a conversation with our own interests and just love communicating to people how smart we are or how we solved some large scale problem at work. If you happen to be with someone when this is going on it can be sad to watch the expression on the listeners face when they are interrupted or when the speaker almost starts another conversation that is totally off the topic that was being discussed. Most people like to listen to respond. You can see it in their eyes and body posture. They discovered a link in a conversation and want to talk so bad that they are practically leaning into the speaker. Look, this is an easy one: below I am going to explain the five types of listening. You decide which one you are and then make adjustments. The trick is be consistent and be a good listener.

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 10: Practice Self Control

11/6/2023
No one has self control. Have you looked at the condition of society? 1 in 4 homes are in foreclosure. I guess we can blame the banks, or can we? Everybody wants something bigger and better. To get bigger and better the money has to be made to get it, unless the bank doesn’t care. But, in the final analysis the decision is made by the buyer. Teenage obesity, diabetes, addiction, alcoholism, is all evidence of the lack of self control in society. And oh, did I mention anger issues and the left over bitterness from childhood that gets carried into adulthood wreaking havoc on families. Society has lost control of its thoughts, its words, and its actions. Everybody knows. What produces a nation of people with self-control, consequences do. Unfortunately many people are sitting in that leaking boat right now and are experiencing the consequences of a lack of self control. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/james-burns5/support

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 9: Read Something Inspirational; Anything

11/5/2023
I made the mistake of having a couple of newspapers and other news outletsdeliverer headlines and breaking stories to my inbox daily. I must say I keep in touch with what is going on in the world. The problem is that 90% of it is so negative, sad and at times slanted based upon the political philosophy of the paper or cable network. At times I can get burned out from just reading and listening. Do yourself a favor and read or listen to something inspirational everyday. It beats the doom and gloom we listen to and watch in the news. The Power Of Consistency --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/james-burns5/support

Let’s say you have a piece of wood, a nail, and a hammer. Pretend the wood is a person, and the nail is a nasty rumor about that person. If you hammer in the nail, you’re obviously hurting him or her. If you then pull out the nail…well, there’s still a hole in the wood, and the damage has been done.

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 7: Stop Trying To Multi Task: You Can't Do It

11/1/2023
For some reason people believe they can multi task. Well guess what; they can’t. Brain research tells us that we can’t focus on more than one task at a time. Think I’m crazy? Well try singing Amazing Grace while the car in front of you is doing 20 miles an hour on a major highway. You see good and evil can’t occupy the same mind, at least not at the same time. All that really happens is we task switch, we just go from one task to another and think we are multi tasking. All that’s really happening is we are doing two tasks only half as well.

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 6: Start Writing Letters

10/30/2023
Whether we want to believe it or not, as adults, we are significant to others right now. It’s time to realize how much we mean to our children, our spouse, and other friends and family members. How much does it really mean to you to mean that much to another person? It doesn’t matter what you have said or done in the past; a life can be changed with the right words at the right time. Often, we allow our past to dictate how we are going to treat others; don’t let it. Start writing those letters now and do it consistently.

The Power Of Consistency Chapter 5: Do One Household Chore A Day

10/29/2023
It is important however to do one thing every day, and ifeverybody does one thing a lot will get accomplished. I am not talking about large scale projects I am referring to daily things that need attention. As an example I empty the dishwasher every morning. I know my wife appreciates it, so when she wakes up the kitchen is clean and ready to use. It’s not doing the task; it’s doing it and adopting the task as your own. The issue arises with children when we don’t assign them a task and they don’t adopt anything as their own. They never seem to pay attention to detail and how to get things done effectively and efficiently. Listen in as Jim detaisl in chapter 5 of The Power Of Consistency why this doing just one thing is so important.
