  • @OnAcornBay | Part 2: The Dragon, the Crescent, and the Bomb

    "So let's connect the dots. China's expanding influence, offering an alternative to Western leadership. Arab states are frustrated and they are looking for options. Pakistan's nuclear arm. Pakistan has nuclear arms connected to both China and the Arab world. Also questioning the Western system. So things are aligning in very interesting ways. Right? We're getting there. The tension is building. These three are increasingly coordinated, even if informally. They meet at Shanghai Corporation Organization summits, joint military exercises."

    "UN officials are using phrases like collective punishment and unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. International courts are issuing warrants. Western governments put out statements. They call for humanitarian pauses, for aid, access, for proportionality. But then the weapons keep flowing. The diplomatic cover continues at the un. The gap between what they say and what they actually do, it's impossible to miss the UN and here's what matters."

    "Build mastery one day at a time. Instead, managers look at a struggling salesperson and think three months ahead. If they're not producing now, they won't produce then. And salespeople look at a tough month and think, if I'm struggling here, I'll magically succeed somewhere else. And both of these positions are wrong. The truth is, this greatness in sales takes time. The best salespeople weren't born crushing quota."

    "It's having standards that would have intimidated your younger self. It's being able to say no to opportunities that don't serve your larger vision. Opportunities you would have killed for five years ago. That's not arrogance. That is earned perspective, my friends. You've put in the work. You've paid the tuition of failure, the tuition of disappointment. You've shown up when you didn't feel like it, and now you're standing in a life that reflects all that effort."

  • @OnAcornBay | Are you driving or considering an electric vehicle or Hybrid and why?

    "But here's what's starting to become trendy is the state is now going to send you a, a bill in the mail if you have an electrified vehicle because they need to make up for the gas tax. So they sold you a bill of goods about the electric and the saving of the environment. And let me tell you, because we have the data, we have the receipts at our dealership at the Pohank Automotive Group. We have the receipts, see, because they were gonna."

    "May the cycle of violence end, and may healing, however distant it seems, begin. Dear God, for all who work toward peace, for all who offer aid and comfort, for all who refuse to lose their humanity, may their efforts not be in vain. May we remember that every life is precious, and may we never grow numb to suffering wherever it occurs, whoever endures it. And may peace come swiftly. Amen."

  • @OnAcornBay | What is "Planned Neglect"?
    Click here to reply to @OnAcornBay

    "I think about Sarah at the library, who she reads to the kids every Tuesday afternoon to show for the children. She has to neglect some things. Her house, Billy Jo. Her level of volunteerism and service is through the roof. Things get neglected. She says no to other commitments, but they have chosen what matters most and they protect it fiercely. The truth is you can't do everything you were never meant to. And our violinists in this story understood something very profound. Excellence requires sacrifice."

  • @OnAcornBay | #TheDailyAcorn - It’s a Mind-Set: Teachability! It’s a mindset and it’s really critical that we get this one so the world can move on.

    "And here's the daily challenge for today. Where in my life have I stopped being teachable? Where have I decided I've arrived? Because the truth is, the moment we think we've arrived is the moment we stop growing. Maybe it's in a relationship where I think I know everything about my partner, so I stop being curious about them. Maybe it's in my work, where I've been doing the same thing for years. I'm on autopilot here, folks."

    "I'm very excited for him physically, mentally, all of it. Of course, we're selfish and we're missing them, and I'm hearing thoughts. There's no place I can go where this man did not just embody. And it's a different feeling. It's not even sadness that I'm feeling. So I don't have a word for what I'm feeling. They're saying it's grief, but I've never felt close grief before."

    "Good morning. Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Acorn Bay. I'm your host here, Shawna Kearsley. Happy October. Oh, my goodness. And do I have something juicy to talk about today. So I'm sitting here with my morning coffee, and I just read this quote from Helen Keller that completely jumped right in my heart. And she said, security is mostly a superstition. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. And I'm like, wow, Helen Keller said that?"
