Gabriella Miller only lived a short 10 years but her legacy continues to live. As I watch this little girl in the midst of something so terrible find meaning to her suffering I am humbled. Take time to watch this short clip. We all have our “storms of life” we are hit with. It’s how we respond in those moments that will forever change our hearts and the hearts of others.
I thought it fitting today after Emily and Ryan begin parenting for some sound advice. What’s the best advice? Well THE very best is to LOVE unconditionally…… Always Always and Always. Now for some good advice and a little bit of humor watch today’s echo……
It doesn’t get much better than this. Emily and Ryan are the proud parents of Baby ?????? (we are hoping a name comes soon)… He was born on August 20, 2017. On today’s echo I take time to introduce the little man to the world. How blessed we have been to have such wonderful children and now these special grandchildren. Life is Awesome. #babytobenamedlater…….
Leadership is a choice…. A choice to positively influence others. Just because you are father, husband, wife, CEO doesn’t mean you are good at those positions??? Have you decided to become a leader? Have you decided to make a difference in someone else’s life? As you watch Chad today make the decision to be a leader…. Choose to influence other’s lives positively. It’s always your choice….
Great episode today. We review last weeks challenges. Adam Talks about containing himself on the softball field. The power of Smiling 🙂 Do you realize how many physiological bennefits their are to smiling? Take a listen and take this week’s challenge. (apology for this week’s poor audio. We are working to get Adam’s system set-up properly… YOU would think the guy that is in Radio full time would have this dialed down….But it goes to show their are people behind the scenes at iHeart making sure his daily show sounds good. He has never had to be the “audio guy”.
On today’s echo I celebrate a great airline and had to include a commercial they have with poodles. I’ve always been a big fan of Southwest Airlines. I now have a bigger reason as my nephew the “Mo” man is the newest pilot to fly their friendly skies. Couldn’t be prouder I know the road has been long and tough. Great job Mo love you buddy.
You have heard the phrase “Angels among us”… Every so often someone defies normal human goodness to the levels of extra-special or angelic. On today’s echo we bring you the trailer of “Nicky’s Family” a wonderful documentary that highlight the extra-ordinary life of Sir Nicholas Winton…Nicholas Winton, an Englishman (today 102 years old) organized the rescue of 669 Czech and Slovak children just before the outbreak of World War II. Winton, now 102 years old, did not speak about these events with anyone for more than half a century. His exploits would have probably been forgotten if his wife, fifty years later, hadn’t found a suitcase in the attic, full of documents and transport plans. Today the story of this rescue is known all over the world. He was knighted by the Queen Elisabeth II and the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 583 recognizing his remarkable deed. Winton’s story is a very emotional one, and thousands of children in many countries have decided to follow in his footsteps and do something important. They think up various charity projects and even help in the saving of lives of undernourished and sick children in Cambodia and Africa. 120,000 children in the Czech Republic signed a petition to award Nicholas Winton the Nobel Prize for Peace. Dozens of Winton’s “children” have been found and to this day his family has grown to almost 6,000 people, many of whom have gone on to achieve great things themselves. It is incredible that all these people live due to the heroic deeds of one man – Sir Nicholas Winton.
No matter who you are you either have had kidney stones or know someone who has. I have had a number of patients over the years come into my office with the back pain associated with kidney stones. No doubt they cause massive pain. On today’s echo we show a short clip on what causes them. Take a look.
On today’s echo some of the best filmmakers talk about why they have been so successful. The advice they give may be specific for filmmaking but I believe the advice goes beyond filmmaking. The thoughts and ideas they share will allow anyone to accomplish more than you currently are. Take time to listen and see what areas you are coming up short.
