SHOW NOTES: - Your belief is a powerful force and attracts (like with success) or repels (like sharks), if you're being true to yourself | - Mark acquired NavySEALS.com in the mid-90's and used it to help prepare clients in their physical, mental, and emotional lives especially to get ready for SEAL training | - His mentoring process increased successful output of SEAL candidates by 5%, a huge impact on the program...but then a bigger business competitor swooped in and took it away | - That was a crushing blow, but served as an evolutionary moment for Mark's growth both personally and professionally | - Use every experience in life to make your life and contribution better.

Marcques HENDERSON Part 1 Podcast Show Notes – | www.AzariahMay.org | - “Fear rarely works to our advantage.” It usually leads to poor decisions and inferior outcomes. | - I saw things as a child that no young person should have to experience. I have always been concerned about protecting the defenseless. |- I started boxing as a young teen, and have been active in the fighting styles for my whole life. I was one of the first Marines into the USMC’s “MCMAP” hand-to-hand combatives program. | - I became an advocate in our UVA program for Marines who have suffered sexual violence. These include many more men than some people would assume. Some of the men have been targeted by civilians in the community, including gangs, who want to make an example of a military guy. | - The Azariah May Academy, named after my kids, is a full-spectrum personal protection school, encompassing economic, psychological, and other focus areas in addition to basic “self-defense” techniques. | - We say Personal Protection rather than “self-defense,” because the former conveys the sense that keeping yourself and others safe is a proactive, comprehensive lifestyle. It’s better to prevent violence than to have to react to it. | - At Azariah May, we don’t just teach fighting techniques. We can’t capitalize on someone else’s pain. We want to help people understand how they’ve contributed to their past violent experiences and prevent them in the future. | - Violence has become mainstream. It used to be limited to untrained “bad guys” using it against innocent victims, and trained protectors using it to stop bad guys, but with the explosion of “mixed martial arts” schools anyone – including bad guys – can become trained to high levels. | - Teen dating violence has become a huge problem. Boys today don’t all know how to behave. | - Social media makes many people feel more brave and disrespectful than they really should be.

3:44 Putting aside you know, the real world factors of Well, the thing will be rotten before I ever get anywhere near close to it. But if you could do it, without the elephant rotting away, you got to do it one bite at a time. It's gonna take you a long time. You don't worry about the size of the elephant or how long it's going to take you to eat it. You just start eating, some parts are going to be good.

6:06 Well, I actually I'm still here. So I think I have pretty good luck. And then I've had the good luck of getting through this, because this prepared me for the next thing. And I've had the good luck of getting through that because it prepared me for the next thing.

14:33 Trying to keep humor in the situation really helps. You know, there's been plenty of studies that talk about levity actually helping your health. Yes. So yes, laughter actually does produce your measurable health benefits. Not only physical health but mental health. I think having mental health oftentimes When you're in dire straits, where your physical health is failing, your mental health will pull you through the day.

21:28 in this story of the Zen Master, this teaches you to look at the future for the possibilities that may come regardless of what you do. But it also teaches you to try your best to influence the possibilities of what may come and not judge what the future may hold, based off of today's predictions.

37:50 I think the biggest thing is don't ever let somebody else tell you that your goal is wrong or unimportant. Your goal is your goal that that's all that matters to you.

1:43 So we distinguish ourselves at impact with impact coaching, we talk about rather than personal development, we talked about whole person development, the whole person, body, mind, heart and soul. And that fifth power, the done zone, healthy boundaries. 6:59 I did have connections to some members of the royal family and they are a family. That's that's who they are. At the end of the day. And with all of the problems that our family has, with all of the complications and the infighting and all of that just done on a grand scale in the public eye. And it's very, it's a very strange existence to contemplate. 17:24 It's that whole ability to have conversations is a lost art, I think ability to have healthy debate ability to actually enter into conversations with someone with a different opinion or someone who doesn't fit the box.19:06 I do think that the pace that we live is one of the most damaging things for us right now. We live so fast, and we're trying to get to the next conversational, we're listening, just so the person can stop talking. So we can say what we're trying to say. And therefore there's this kind of like, we're not really listening. We just want to get our voice heard. 23:00 And the irony for me is like, all of my work is based on complex systems evolution. And yet to market that, technically speaking, I should like reduce, reduce that into the reductionist philosophy of how to do an Instagram post or a reel or a meme or anything that's like 10 seconds worth of content. And it doesn't work.

https://victoriafenton.net/ - Many people don't even know they have a life's mission. - We see growing as "aging"...but it's always a chance to be growing. - This is related to the two ways of seeing the world: Growth or Fixed mindsets. - The human life is a complete systems and somatics provide a way to understand our inner life. - Somatics describes any practice that uses the mind-body connection to help you survey your internal self and listen to signals your body sends about areas of pain, discomfort, or imbalance. - Trauma teaches us to "control" for safety, but that excessive control harms us. - Victoria's coaching provides a safe place to "be everything messy."

- The first S&S gathering, ten years ago, was based on the concern that social media was becoming a dangerous tool for disinformation...how right that was | - With September's event we're focusing on Ukraine's defense against the Russian invasion | - Gazprom, the Russian oil company, has had at least three unexplained explosions in recent months...this is a perfect example of "multi-modal warfare" | - Adversaries no longer require physical access to damage the enemy's resources | - "Robot surgery" has caused many more injuries and deaths than the medical industry is talking about...what if these basic malfunctions could be weaponized?

00:34 We have an interesting balancing, you know, there's checks and balances baked into the system of liberty, freedom, freedom of capitalism or freedom or controls in a capitalized a capitalistic controlled system like you're describing, the Soviets discovered that central control is extremely cumbersome, but effective control. And in the end, you know, they collapse from the weight of trying to control everything.

4:07 The US doesn't have a choice anymore, and hasn't had a choice for a number of years, where it must go outside of his borders, to hire talent.

5:04 We have not emphasized science and math, in our educational system here, and other countries have. So we're relying on those individuals with those skills from outside of the US. Same with getting the necessary components, right to supply our, our products, or having even having products made overseas, that for whatever reason, you know, we can't afford the labor or we can't afford some other aspect of it.

10:26 There are costs to that distrust, massive costs downstream, we're going to find we're finding already, no man is an island. This is fundamentally the same as interpersonal relationships.

19:41 Your news feed should have a mix of points of view. So that it gets you to think well, how can two things be true? Well, probably it cannot. So how do you discern what's real and what isn't? And because in that happens when you have a variety of points To view, on the other hand, social media does not do that it does the exact opposite.

25:06 I think it has to come down to individuals making informed choices about what they do and why they do it. And what the repercussions are if they don't do it. And then hopefully they'll, you know, make the right choice.
