Speaker 1: Honey money, Money Now a financial dispatch from a season
Speaker 1: economic professional. This is the Bloomberg Money Minute on seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW.
Speaker 2: Alrighty, we say good morning once more to Denise Pelagreni
Speaker 2: from the Bloomberg newsroom in New York City. A very
Speaker 2: good news for tens of millions of Americans. Mortgage rates drop.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is really igniting a new buying spree. Here's
Speaker 3: what we know. Mortgage applications for home purchases jumped last
Speaker 3: week to the hydas since January of twenty twenty three.
Speaker 3: So that's more than three years, right, according to the
Speaker 3: Mortgage Bankers Association, and the reason, as you mentioned, contract
Speaker 3: rate on a thirty year fixed rate mortgage slip two
Speaker 3: basis points, putting it closer and closer, though not quite
Speaker 3: under six percent. The rate this past week six point
Speaker 3: one six percent. We've seen all these surveys showing if
Speaker 3: rates were to actually drop under six percent, that could
Speaker 3: ignite a just a huge wave by but we're all
Speaker 3: starting to see maybe that happening.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, speaking of home buyers, President Trump is expected to
Speaker 2: unveil plans the deal with the fact that so many
Speaker 2: people can't afford to buy a home right he's.
Speaker 3: In Switzerland, he's touched down. Finally, he's expected to deliver
Speaker 3: a major address in the coming hours. Housing affordability and
Speaker 3: plans to ease the affordability crisis as something he has
Speaker 3: said that he will include as part of his comments
Speaker 3: during his travels in Switzerland this week. The President also
Speaker 3: intends to expand his domestic travel ahead of November's midterm elections.
Speaker 3: He'll be touting his economic agenda all over the place.
Speaker 3: According to AIDS, housing is expected to be a big
Speaker 3: part of this, and the AIDS say the President will
Speaker 3: be traveling every week. Cabinet members will focus on domestic stops,
Speaker 3: making fewer international trips. We've seen a lot of things
Speaker 3: floated as part of this housing affordability plan, whether it
Speaker 3: comes to mortgage rates, new building, you know, maybe curbing investors'
Speaker 3: ability to buy single family homes themselves, maybe being able
Speaker 3: to take some money out of your four oh one
Speaker 3: K with new rules surrounding that to use as a
Speaker 3: down payment. Just a lot going on. No one is
Speaker 3: sure exactly what he's going to say about housing, but
Speaker 3: that is just being watched very very closely and should
Speaker 3: be especially among consumers. Hoping to buy.
Speaker 2: Home absolutely without all that in mind. What about the
Speaker 2: futures this morning, Yeah.
Speaker 3: They flipped negative after the president touchdown. There's just a
Speaker 3: lot of tension about Greenland, right, and also the President
Speaker 3: is threatening what eight European nations with new tariffs because
Speaker 3: of their views opposing his view on green On. So
Speaker 3: Doubt futures down one on one, s and P futures
Speaker 3: down one, NASDA futures down twenty one. And this is
Speaker 3: all after just that huge route we had yesterday for
Speaker 3: a stocks. The big winner today is gold hitting a
Speaker 3: new record high this morning from Bloomberg. I'm Denise Pelgriny
Speaker 3: News Radio seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 2: Always enjoy getting together with our business insider. You can
Speaker 2: follow Greg Stebben on Bluesky at Greg g r e
Speaker 2: gg Steben s t e b as in boy b
Speaker 2: as in boy e n.
Speaker 4: And today we're going to break this down.
Speaker 2: We're going to dumb this down a little bit today
Speaker 2: because we've been talking so much Greg about AI. You know,
Speaker 2: what is it? How exactly does it work? I mean,
Speaker 2: is it some giant computer that knows everything about everything
Speaker 2: that's ever been on the Internet or in the world,
Speaker 2: or in the news or anything else. Let's break it
Speaker 2: down to this very simple question, what is a I?
Speaker 2: And a follow up, how exactly does AI work?
Speaker 5: Well, I'm glad you started with what I think most
Speaker 5: people think it is and how it works, which is
Speaker 5: this giant computer system that has read everything on the
Speaker 5: Internet and the minute you ask a question can access
Speaker 5: it all, order it, make sense of it, and write
Speaker 5: a solution for you or an answer for you. That's
Speaker 5: part of how A work. There's another part, which may
Speaker 5: be news to you, and that is there are companies
Speaker 5: like one called Mercore, and let's just single Mercore out
Speaker 5: here for a minute. Mercore has hired tens of thousands
Speaker 5: of people who are teaching the Internet what they know.
Speaker 5: We're talking astronomers, psychologists, industrial engineers, filmmakers, comedians, lawyers, doctors, poets.
Speaker 5: They're paying people. If you were a dermatologist, for instance,
Speaker 5: you might get two hundred and fifty dollars an hour
Speaker 5: to teach AI about dermatology. If you were a poet,
Speaker 5: you might make one hundred and fifty dollars an hour
Speaker 5: teaching AI how to be poetic. I don't know about you,
Speaker 5: but if this thing could read all the information in
Speaker 5: the world and spew it out in a brilliant, artificially
Speaker 5: intelligent Why does it need humans to tell it what
Speaker 5: to do? To me? It's beginning to sound like the
Speaker 5: Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 2: Well, that's where I was going. It's funny you said
Speaker 2: Wizard of Oz, because I mean does that I mean,
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, is AI really that
Speaker 2: smart or as smart as we are told? Or like
Speaker 2: the Wizard of Oz with a human and a brain
Speaker 2: hiding nearby, somewhere behind the proverbial curtain.
Speaker 5: Well, so let's ask your question in a different way.
Speaker 5: Why would AI companies want us to believe it's the
Speaker 5: smartest thing ever and soon it will be smarter than us,
Speaker 5: when perhaps it's really more like the Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 5: Can we think of a business reason for that? I can,
Speaker 5: And the business reason for that is, Oh, if we
Speaker 5: if we five companies build up this illusion of brilliance
Speaker 5: and we sell everybody on it, and by I mean
Speaker 5: mostly businesses, and then we as individuals follow in the governments,
Speaker 5: and then everybody, governments, businesses and individuals begin using this
Speaker 5: instead of the old way of getting information like Google. Well,
Speaker 5: we've killed our competition and we now own how people
Speaker 5: do things before they figured out that what we sold
Speaker 5: them was actually an illusion, and they may hate us
Speaker 5: for selling them on something that's an illusion, but they
Speaker 5: can't go back to the old thing because that whole system,
Speaker 5: and maybe even some of those companies that make it possible,
Speaker 5: is gone. I mean, we've seen this in the tech
Speaker 5: business over and over again. You kill your competition. This
Speaker 5: is how Microsoft became Microsoft. You kill your competition, or
Speaker 5: you buy your competition and you run them out of business.
Speaker 5: And then if people discover later that what you were
Speaker 5: actually selling was inferior, doesn't really matter because there's no
Speaker 5: old way to go back to, you know.
Speaker 2: Before I shift this in a different direction, which I
Speaker 2: want to get to in a second, when you were
Speaker 2: using the example of a poet or an astronomer or
Speaker 2: any walk of life, these people come into All of
Speaker 2: us come into a situation like that where we might
Speaker 2: be teaching it something, but then our personal sort of
Speaker 2: slant comes into it. Has that become an issue at all?
Speaker 2: From what you've been able to tell or hear in
Speaker 2: the AI world, have you heard.
Speaker 5: Any issues with AI getting people incorrect accurate?
Speaker 2: You and I were talking tragically about you know, teens
Speaker 2: that have basically been talked into and given ways to
Speaker 2: go about committing suicide.
Speaker 5: Well, I think that might be a case where more
Speaker 5: into human intervention would have been better, because I don't
Speaker 5: think there's a lot of people that would have coached.
Speaker 6: AI to do that.
Speaker 5: I mean, I think there are places where human intervention
Speaker 5: is going to be necessary, but not tens of thousands
Speaker 5: of people teaching it to be poetic, not teaching it
Speaker 5: about astronomy. You would think that just like you and
Speaker 5: I read a textbook to read things, or now we
Speaker 5: go to YouTube. But you know, just like if it
Speaker 5: had greater than human intelligence or equal to human intelligence,
Speaker 5: that it could learn the same way we do, which
Speaker 5: is by watching a YouTube video or reading something. But
Speaker 5: apparently that's not good enough because it then needs us
Speaker 5: as coaches as well.
Speaker 2: Okay, I want to go in a little bit different direction,
Speaker 2: if you don't mind on the premise here that we
Speaker 2: know if it takes tens of thousands of people every
Speaker 2: day to teach AI how to do things, and maybe
Speaker 2: I have lost my job to AI, or think I
Speaker 2: might lose my job to AI, should I be considering
Speaker 2: going to work for one of these companies as you
Speaker 2: alluded to a minute ago. And then I'm the one
Speaker 2: who teaches people every day and teaches Ai how to
Speaker 2: do things.
Speaker 5: Well, that's a tough question, right, I mean I'm listening
Speaker 5: to you, and I'm thinking it's kind of like answering
Speaker 5: an ad in the paper. Let's say a chef and
Speaker 5: you get a job or to go live with and
Speaker 5: cook for Hannibal lector Okay, right, it's gonna in the end,
Speaker 5: You're going to finish your job and then it's going
Speaker 5: to eat you. So it may be that you don't
Speaker 5: have a choice. I mean the people that are interviewed
Speaker 5: in this article I read in the Wall Street Journal,
Speaker 5: I mean some of them like the work. You know,
Speaker 5: there's one guy who is who wrote about cars as
Speaker 5: a journalist for his entire career. Well, I can tell
Speaker 5: you as a journalist that's not a great career to
Speaker 5: be in anymore. So now he's teaching Ai how to
Speaker 5: write and evaluating pieces of journalism that Ai is writing.
Speaker 5: I think he'd rather be a journalist, but he also
Speaker 5: wants to put food on the table and make his
Speaker 5: car payment or his mortgage, So I think stepping into
Speaker 5: that is tricky. It is. If you need the money
Speaker 5: and you can get the job, you may do it.
Speaker 5: But just remember, Hannibal Lecture's coming for you too.
Speaker 2: Well that's a hasn't thought to end on for crying
Speaker 2: out loud, Greg, We always love the time getting together
Speaker 2: with you, my friend. I hope you have a great
Speaker 2: rest of your weekend weekend, and we'll look forward to
Speaker 2: catching up again next week.

Speaker 6: It's great to be here, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Greg, Great to have you with us. Love have
Speaker 2: an guy on every single week. He is just a
Speaker 2: fascinating dude, smart beyond belief speaking, a smart good chance.

Speaker 7: a while before a person gets here if you're expecting
Speaker 7: them from Louisvara, Lexington because of that snow and ice
Speaker 7: that's moving through here southbound seventy five that continues to

Speaker 2: WCPO nine, first twenty four cast presented by Jennifer ketch Mark.
Speaker 2: We're gonna start seeing some snow here in the Try State.
Speaker 2: Maybe some in our listening area already getting some snow.
Speaker 2: As Chuck just mentioned, we're looking at roughly an inch
Speaker 2: some areas a little more. Some a little bit less
Speaker 2: and that will go until about one o'clock today. So
Speaker 2: you know, the temperatures being what they are, there could
Speaker 2: be some slick roads or some slick spots possible out there.
Speaker 2: Tonight we're dried down to twenty seven. Tomorrow, mix of
Speaker 2: sun and clouds up to thirty four, but with a
Speaker 2: wind chill it won't be above freezing. Then tomorrow night
Speaker 2: we're down to fifteen, wind chill in the single digits.
Speaker 2: And the big, big question is where is the try
Speaker 2: state in relation to this massive storm that is moving
Speaker 2: west to east across America and to hit areas that rarely,
Speaker 2: if ever gets no and now they're staring down the
Speaker 2: barrel at anywhere from four to twelve to eighteen inches
Speaker 2: in place like Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, North Carolina,
Speaker 2: South Carolina, Virginia. Eight twenty three, we got the news
Speaker 2: around the corner on seven hundred WL, and we've got
Speaker 2: the news coming up in forty five seconds.
Speaker 4: Coming up at eight thirty eight.
Speaker 2: Our visit with Pastor Chad Joven and our four week
Speaker 2: series continues the me I want to be We've talked about,
Speaker 2: you know, are you really too busy or are you
Speaker 2: really not making certain things a priority. We talked about
Speaker 2: making a to B list rather than a to do list.
Speaker 2: Today we're going to talk about making a hierarchy of needs,
Speaker 2: where my needs where I need to be on multiple fronts,
Speaker 2: not just mentally, physically and spiritually. But what about as
Speaker 2: a father? What about is a husband? What about as
Speaker 2: a worker? That's coming up next on the Nation station
Speaker 2: seven UNDREWLW Cincinnati, Money become.
Speaker 4: A financial Ninja. Your next is about to begin.
Speaker 1: This is the Bloomberg Money Minute on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3: Good Morning. Investors this morning. Are keeping a very close
Speaker 3: eye on President Trump and what he says in Davos
Speaker 3: about Greenland, also about trade with the European Union, and
Speaker 3: also about the US housing market and the problem of affordability. Meantime,
Speaker 3: gold glittering this morning, hitting new record highs as the
Speaker 3: US threatens tariffs on European nations that oppose the President's
Speaker 3: plans to take over Greenland. Natural gas futures surging as
Speaker 3: people across the East and the South duck and cover
Speaker 3: ahead of a big storm coming this weekend that could
Speaker 3: not only dump a lot of snow on some areas.
Speaker 3: Could also hurt Texas, where a lot of the natural
Speaker 3: gas is processed and remembered. Natgas is also used to
Speaker 3: generate electricity, so any snarls in net guest delivery can
Speaker 3: also mean potential problems with electric supply. Netflix shares plunging
Speaker 3: this morning. It plans to boost program spending this year
Speaker 3: that could hurt profits, and United Airlines trading higher in
Speaker 3: the early going after coming out with better than expected
Speaker 3: quarterly results. The airline also adding by flat seats, startling
Speaker 3: internet service, and spending one hundred and fifty million dollars
Speaker 3: to improve in flight catering. From Bluebirg, I'm Denise Pelygrinnian
Speaker 3: News Radio, seven hundred wlw AH.
Speaker 2: Yes when you hear it, don't stop believing. That means
Speaker 2: it's time for our weekly get together with Pastor Chad
Speaker 2: Hovin from the Horizon Community Church right there in Newtown, Ohio,
Speaker 2: right along the bank to the Little Miami River.
Speaker 4: Beautiful setting over there lake right out the back of
Speaker 4: the church. All right.
Speaker 2: We decided three weeks ago, and Chad came up with
Speaker 2: the title of our four part series. A lot of
Speaker 2: people like to make New Year's resolutions and so maybe
Speaker 2: different than your say, physical health or whatever it might be.
Speaker 2: He calls this series the me I Want to be
Speaker 2: Today is part three, but Chad, for those that may
Speaker 2: have missed parts one and two, let's start with number
Speaker 2: one if you can just you know, sort of prioritize
Speaker 2: or summarize more accurately. Number one, I'm not too busy.
Speaker 2: It's just not a priority.
Speaker 8: Yeah, say that phrase to yourself is really helpful because
Speaker 8: it helps you remember that when you choose not to
Speaker 8: do something, it's because you're choosing not to do something,
Speaker 8: the kind of false belief that we're too busy, we're
Speaker 8: going to fill our life with things that are important
Speaker 8: to us, and so if you're not prioritizing something, it's
Speaker 8: because you're not prioritizing something.
Speaker 6: So phrase is really helpful.
Speaker 8: In aligning what it is you're really choosing to do
Speaker 8: and choosing not to do.
Speaker 4: Okay, So the.
Speaker 8: First week and the second week we talked about to
Speaker 8: B list should be what drive your to do list,
Speaker 8: which is who do you want to be, who you're becoming,
Speaker 8: who you're forming yourself into. Then how do you make
Speaker 8: sure that what you're choosing to prioritize or engage in,
Speaker 8: or when life kind of comes at you and you
Speaker 8: can't choose it, how do I use this to become
Speaker 8: a more generous person, to become a less worryful person,
Speaker 8: How do I become more courageous person? And that can
Speaker 8: really bring meaning and purpose even when you're underdress.
Speaker 2: You know, I loved as part of that second part
Speaker 2: of our series about where you talked about making a
Speaker 2: list of character qualities that you saw in those that
Speaker 2: you have respect for. It could be a loved one
Speaker 2: in your case, it was a grandfather for some others,
Speaker 2: it could be somebody you work with. It could be
Speaker 2: a friend, It could be one of your children. Something
Speaker 2: you look at them and you're like, man, I wish
Speaker 2: I were more like that in that way, right.
Speaker 6: Without a doubt.
Speaker 8: Yeah, in fact, and I think it actually infused it
Speaker 8: with meaning because you're like, it's not just a theoretical idea.
Speaker 8: I've seen this lived out. I've seen this personalized in someone,
Speaker 8: and this is what a life well lived can look like.
Speaker 8: And obviously no one is perfect. That you might say, Hey,
Speaker 8: that particular quality of that person, I like, yeah, I
Speaker 8: want to leave the other things behind on that person.
Speaker 8: This other person I want to pick up what their
Speaker 8: strengths are. So it really gives you a vision for
Speaker 8: what living in a profoundly human way looks like. And
Speaker 8: you start seeing that there's almost intangible, immaterial, almost supernatural
Speaker 8: qualities behind that, and you're like, man, I want to
Speaker 8: partner with that.
Speaker 2: We call it plain glass, stained glass. We do it
Speaker 2: every Wednesday with Pastor Chadholven from the Horizon Community Church. Okay,
Speaker 2: now we get to part three in our series of
Speaker 2: the me I want to be make a hierarchy of needs?
Speaker 4: What does that need?
Speaker 8: Yeah, well you mean remember from psychology class If not,
Speaker 8: there is a gun named Maslov who create a hierarchy
Speaker 8: of neats and thinking it like the food pyramid. At
Speaker 8: the bottom, he said, our foundational need is a biological neats,
Speaker 8: food and water. Then on top of that is the
Speaker 8: next most important thing safety. Then the third thing is
Speaker 8: love and belonging. The way towards the top of the
Speaker 8: pyramid is esteem. And then lastly at the very top,
Speaker 8: if you really have time for or self actualization, spiritual.
Speaker 6: Values, etc.
Speaker 8: I'd like to propose that you should actually turn those
Speaker 8: values upside down and inside out, which is what if
Speaker 8: you know a lot of people have their physical needs
Speaker 8: mets and their safety needs met, and yet they're discouraged,
Speaker 8: they're depressed, they're not happy. And it's not to say
Speaker 8: the food and water and safety is important. But what
Speaker 8: if the focus is to turn that upside down. I'm
Speaker 8: always focusing on my externals, not focused on my internals.
Speaker 8: I need to turn inside out, which is what's really
Speaker 8: going on inside of me. There's an old French philosopher,
Speaker 8: Pierre I can't Rember's last name, but he says man
Speaker 8: is not primarily a human being having a spiritual experience.
Speaker 8: Mankind is primarily a spiritual being having a human experience.
Speaker 8: You think of it this way, like every human being
Speaker 8: you feel it, I feel it everyone you know? Humans
Speaker 8: are obsessed with finding.
Speaker 6: Meaning and purpose.
Speaker 8: Like why would that be except that we are created
Speaker 8: from a meaningful I mean, if the whole world was
Speaker 8: created in a random, meaningless way, it would not create
Speaker 8: creatures that are obsessed with meaning. So in saying that, say,
Speaker 8: then okay, then what are my self actualization one of
Speaker 8: my core values? What are the things I really need
Speaker 8: to focus on that hierarchy of needs? And when you
Speaker 8: know that, you start realizing you come to decisions. I
Speaker 8: know what to say yes to and what to say
Speaker 8: no to. For many of us, we focus on staying busy,
Speaker 8: being productive, and I love staying busy, and I love
Speaker 8: being productive. What if instead, you said, while I'm doing that,
Speaker 8: the real hierarchy is I need to go deep. I
Speaker 8: need to pay attention to my body. My body is
Speaker 8: telling me right now, I'm discouraged. My body's telling me
Speaker 8: right now, I am stressed. My mind is racing. What
Speaker 8: if I was focused on I need to prioritize that, Yes,
Speaker 8: I want to work hard.
Speaker 6: Yes, I want to be the best employee I can.
Speaker 8: Yes, I want to provide for my financial needs. For
Speaker 8: my goodness, I've been ignoring my body.
Speaker 6: I've been ignoring my mind racing.
Speaker 8: I've been ignoring that, whether it's depression, or whether it's anxiety,
Speaker 8: or whether it's worry or maybe I saw on my parents, man,
Speaker 8: they were so fearful their whole life. I've now inherited
Speaker 8: some of that. I need to go deep. I need
Speaker 8: to get to the bottom of this. I need to
Speaker 8: what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, how I do it,
Speaker 8: why I think that's going to force you to keep
Speaker 8: being good at what you do, but not ignore the
Speaker 8: symptoms all around you that you said, Ah, that's the
Speaker 8: top of the pyramid. What a luxury to think about
Speaker 8: that kind of stuff versus that might be your body
Speaker 8: and mind really crying out to you about what really matters.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm kind of curious. It's sparked the question
Speaker 2: I've often wondered. And you talked to so many people
Speaker 2: on so many different levels of things they're going through.
Speaker 2: It could be a breakup of a marriage, it could
Speaker 2: be the loss of a loved one, grief, etc. All
Speaker 2: kinds of deal issues with a child who perhaps has
Speaker 2: gone astray. One thing that made me wonder when you
Speaker 2: were just talking about something there about for us to
Speaker 2: go deep. Okay, do you think and based on your experience,
Speaker 2: do you think that a person, if they really want
Speaker 2: to go deep, that they have to resolve some issues
Speaker 2: of maybe some things in their past that they've never
Speaker 2: dealt with. And I'm not talking here now about serious trauma.
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about someone who is physically or sexually
Speaker 2: of you. It's a whole different level and there's no
Speaker 2: doubt about the answer to that question. But I'm talking
Speaker 2: you know, maybe your parents had a terrible divorce, maybe
Speaker 2: you and your sister, whatever it could be. Is it
Speaker 2: important for you to go deep as you just made
Speaker 2: reference to, do you have to be able to put
Speaker 2: some of those other things to bed that may have
Speaker 2: happened five years ago, forty years ago before you can
Speaker 2: go deep.
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, I think it might be the very definition
Speaker 8: of going deep as a deal with those things. It's
Speaker 8: how did I become who I am? And what part
Speaker 8: of that is me reacting to the past. What part
Speaker 8: of that is me repeating the past? And how do
Speaker 8: I move to a place where I'm responding to the past.
Speaker 8: What's the difference responding is I know what happened, I
Speaker 8: know what part of it I'm choosing to leave behind.
Speaker 6: I know what part of it is I have healed from.
Speaker 8: There's a there's a psychology called love attachment theory, and
Speaker 8: it says that the problems in your marriage didn't begin
Speaker 8: in your marriage. And you think, if only my spouseuld
Speaker 8: blah blah blah, But really you've picked up patterns from
Speaker 8: the past. You're still caring wounds or wounded miss and
Speaker 8: you know this.
Speaker 6: We all know this. No matter how wonderful your life is.
Speaker 8: And here in America I'm living in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 8: You know, we all are very, very blessed. However, life
Speaker 8: is brutal, and it is hostile often and the things
Speaker 8: we endured, the difficulties, and sometimes that's expectations to for
Speaker 8: many of us. Often you can't enjoy the life you
Speaker 8: could have until you.
Speaker 6: Have to grieve the life you should have.
Speaker 8: And many of us had expectations, my life should be
Speaker 8: like this. I'm now forty years old, I'm now sixty
Speaker 8: years old. I should be X, Y and Z. And
Speaker 8: because of some brutal part of your life, something that happened,
Speaker 8: it was beyond your control or you know, we all
Speaker 8: make bone headed decisions too. We go, then we beat
Speaker 8: ourselves up over if only I hadn't done that, said
Speaker 8: that been there across that line. So a lot of
Speaker 8: times it's grieving, and I don't think a lot of
Speaker 8: us know how to grieve. And grieving is saying, man,
Speaker 8: I know what happened, I know what I wanted to happen.
Speaker 6: I did my darkness.
Speaker 8: I mean there's times like I remember my book came out,
Speaker 8: I did my darkness to.
Speaker 4: Kind of.
Speaker 8: Check every dot, every eye across every tee to make
Speaker 8: sure I had done my part to make it successful.
Speaker 8: And it was moderately successful, but not at the level
Speaker 8: I hoped for, and you know, I had to grieve that.
Speaker 8: You know, I thought that would be you know, A
Speaker 8: B and C. And it was, you know, maybe better
Speaker 8: than others. Other times it's more deeper stuff. You're looking
Speaker 8: at past and saying, my goodness, I'm still carrying the
Speaker 8: wounds of you know, needing to be a mediator between.
Speaker 6: My mom and my dad, you might think.
Speaker 8: Or growing up, you might say, I had a very
Speaker 8: volatile childhood and because of that, it just bread a
Speaker 8: lot of worry or anxiety in me. And if I
Speaker 8: don't consciously deal with that, I probably already bread some
Speaker 8: of that into my kids. You might say, Man, I
Speaker 8: want to show them, even as an adult, now that
Speaker 8: they're in the twenties or thirties, that data is still growing.
Speaker 8: And there's a tendency I think in all of us
Speaker 8: to think chronological time is going to magically heal the
Speaker 8: stuff inside you. Yet we all know that you can
Speaker 8: be chronologically getting older, and you can be developmentally getting
Speaker 8: more and more immature, or more and more grumpy, or
Speaker 8: more and more self focused. So if you're not intentional
Speaker 8: about it, the current of life, the current of your
Speaker 8: own trajectory, is to often take you towards more self centeredness,
Speaker 8: more miism, and those sestering wounds. In last week of church,
Speaker 8: I talked about Mount Saint Helen's and what made Mount
Speaker 8: Saint Helens so devastating is when the explosion went off
Speaker 8: of that cryptodoom dome off the side of the mountain
Speaker 8: a thousand years earlier. All these sulphuric gases underneath the
Speaker 8: mountain and basically create a teflon plate. So about third
Speaker 8: of the mountain is just ready to slide off. So
Speaker 8: that explosion triggered a slide that went back to one
Speaker 8: thousand years older, and many geologists called it a sick mountain.
Speaker 8: It looked beautiful on the outside, but inside there was
Speaker 8: just some sickness.
Speaker 6: There was some there was.
Speaker 8: Unresolved sulfuric acid that had basically created a slide plane
Speaker 8: that created devastation later. So it often it says, I
Speaker 8: need to drill down, figure out what smells the matter.
Speaker 8: I'm here, I got the superior acid.
Speaker 4: Yeah smell yeah.
Speaker 6: Some area of my life I need to stop ignoring
Speaker 6: that thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, give me an example before I let you go.
Speaker 2: We're talking about making a hierarchy of needs, and you
Speaker 2: made the comment, look, something is going to be quote
Speaker 2: unquote cheated right when your time, your energy, maybe your
Speaker 2: money is limited.
Speaker 4: And how important.
Speaker 2: I've often said, the most powerful or one of the
Speaker 2: most powerful words in the English language is two simple letters.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 2: You just said the ability sometimes to say no. Give
Speaker 2: us an example of something that if you're making a
Speaker 2: hierarchy of needs, that you might find yourself having to
Speaker 2: say no to where you weren't before.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 8: I think sometimes as hobbies during this particular season, I
Speaker 8: love this hobby, but it's not as important as whatever
Speaker 8: my health. It's as important as my marriage's not important
Speaker 8: to my times with my kids. It might be, Man,
Speaker 8: I've been really good at managing controlling things.
Speaker 5: Man, it has.
Speaker 8: Really caused all kinds of anxiety and pressure because I've
Speaker 8: deluded myself into thinking I can control people in circumstances,
Speaker 8: and I need to start prioritizing surrender, letting go, reallying
Speaker 8: I can't control things. It also could be as simple
Speaker 8: as do you know I was talking to an executive
Speaker 8: about four months ago, and she was saying to me
Speaker 8: that I only take certain requests for speaking engagements and
Speaker 8: for priorities, things that are related to these topics. And
Speaker 8: she's very well known, she's very sought after. What she says,
Speaker 8: of the hundred things I can could do, I say
Speaker 8: no to things that are not this passion point related
Speaker 8: to specific coaching for companies and related to this specific
Speaker 8: thing relate to marriages, because my husband and I went.
Speaker 6: To a difficult thing.
Speaker 8: We wrote a book about it, and we want to
Speaker 8: help other marriages do what we did. So that person
Speaker 8: knew their mission, they were qualified to do a thousand things.
Speaker 8: What they said, I only say yes to speak engagements
Speaker 8: relate to A or B. I talked to a church
Speaker 8: recently who they say yes to everything. The whole staff
Speaker 8: has overwhelmed, all the organizations overwhelmed because I say yes
Speaker 8: to everything, and I say, listen, you don't really have
Speaker 8: a mission statement for your company or for yourself if
Speaker 8: you don't know what you say no to. Because when
Speaker 8: you know what you're good at, what you're focused on.
Speaker 8: And even as a person like for me, I could
Speaker 8: do a lot of things. I'm a generalist very much so,
Speaker 8: and I enjoy that. But I'm trying to organize my
Speaker 8: business life around what are the things only I can
Speaker 8: do for the company. One of the things I uniquely
Speaker 8: can do to advances forward? Then how do I delegate
Speaker 8: the things that I could do but other people are
Speaker 8: better at? So do you know what you uniquely can do?
Speaker 8: And say I want to prioritize what I uniquely can
Speaker 8: do for my family, for my company, for my kids.
Speaker 8: No one else could be my kid's dad but me,
Speaker 8: no one else can may be maybe the strategic thinker.
Speaker 8: You've got to be putting more and more time into
Speaker 8: the strategic thinking and get out of the bureaucracy you're doing.
Speaker 8: I'm a creative teacher. I need to spend lots of
Speaker 8: time creating and focusing on that. So I got to
Speaker 8: say no to a lot of meetings I might want
Speaker 8: to be part of, might want to be important, but
Speaker 8: it's not going to help me do what I uniquely
Speaker 8: can do for the sake.
Speaker 6: Of my company.
Speaker 2: Great stuff, Pastor, Chad Hobn, thank you so much, as
Speaker 2: always for your time. We'll get to part four in
Speaker 2: our series. Than me I want to be next week.

Speaker 2: That's great stuff, I mean great stuff. You don't have
Speaker 2: to be some you know, Jesus believer, you don't have
Speaker 2: to be some fuck. These are very very simple sorts
Speaker 2: of things that we can do to be the me
Speaker 2: I want to be. All right, let's see what's happening
Speaker 2: out on the roadways, Chuck Ingram. What is the very latest,
Speaker 2: my friend, is the snow gets closer and closer allegedly.
Speaker 7: Well, I think we're going to dodge the bullet there.
Speaker 7: As far as the snow, I'm not seeing any weather
Speaker 7: issues inside the two seventy five loop. Now you go
Speaker 7: a little bit further south, they're having all kinds of
Speaker 7: trouble at Louisville and also in Lexington, Frankfurt, those sort
Speaker 7: of areas. Yeah, there's plenty of slick conditions there. But
Speaker 7: here it's southbound seventy one that continues to struggle. This

Speaker 7: second opinion now called five one three five eighty five.

Speaker 7: Traffic is backing up to Western Row. Southbound seventy five
Speaker 7: continues slow in and out of Lockland. Northbound seventy five

Speaker 2: WCPO nine first Warning forecast, presented by Jennifer ketch Mark.
Speaker 2: We are expecting that snow that Chuck was talking about.
Speaker 2: Apparently he must be moving a little slower than perhaps
Speaker 2: anticipated very early this morning. But we're looking at between
Speaker 2: now and one o'clock roughly, and it could vary a
Speaker 2: little more a little less roughly about an inch of
Speaker 2: snow and it will stick, which could create some slick
Speaker 2: spots in the road. So, especially on your way home
Speaker 2: today as our temperatures begin to drop getting into close
Speaker 2: to night time, be careful please Tonight down to twenty
Speaker 2: seven were dry tomorrow, mix of sun and clouds thirty four,
Speaker 2: but wind chill in the twenties Tomorrow night low of fifteen,
Speaker 2: when chill in the single digits. And the big question
