FAILURE TO SUCCESS Shortcuts – The Easy Way

44 Replies

FAILURE, to SUCCESS Shortcuts, leaves clues and a path towards that end. However, there a some who agree that there are no shortcuts to success; There’s a beaten path that all must follow. This post explores the easy way to reclaim your future and continue your path. This week’s segment of the Urban Academics Roundtable features a Chosen Visionary who had it (dreams fulfilled) and lost it ALL! She was a successful magazine editor and publisher, but her magazine folded due to the “journey” of success, leaving her heartbroken and her dreams crushed; This resembles failure and could have been the end to a successful career later had she given up totally.

What is Failure:

According to Wikipedia, Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective and may be viewed as the opposite of success. The criteria for failure depends on the context and may be relative to a particular observer or belief system. True, but when legitimate opportunities don’t turn out as planned, sometimes it’s difficult to determine whether the experience is good or bad based on our feelings. The only way to many times to no fault of our own we must plan again and start over, causing feelings of defeat and shame as if we have failed.

Depending on the type of loss or failure, it could be several different ways, but far too often, most people get stuck in their feelings first before taking another chance at achieving desired outcomes. Most people agree it’s far more challenging to experience failure when you are older than when you were young and didn’t have as much experience. Risk-taking was a little easier when there was little to no apprehension. After a while, as we age, we can apply wisdom to more situations, and sometimes based on feelings, we can self-sabotage. So, what’s so great about Chosen Visionary Number 78? Continue Reding.

If you haven’t heard by now, GRATITUDE is Your Best Bet To Grow NOW! The best way to rid ourselves of toxic people, places, and things is to create a habit where gratitude is built into daily routines and thought processes.

There are several notable athletes and celebrities who have contributed to making this process a part of their everyday lives. Each person’s approach might be a little different, but you will understand why they believe the gift of gratitude has a world of benefit attached to it.

Does Prostate Age Make A Difference?

Prostate cancer is considered rare in men younger than 40, and usually occurs more frequently amongst men starting at about age 50 – Again, the most common age is 60. It depends on a number of factors, but age is significant in the diagnosis and the treatment of the disease.

“Different cancers have different risk factors. Some risk factors, like smoking, can be changed. Others, like a person’s age or family history, can’t be changed.”

What About Balance and Cancer RIght Now?

148 Replies

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but almost forgotten since the onset of the National Pandemic knowns as Caronavirus! It might be a good time to review what we can ALL do about Cancer right now? There’s one common thread amongst cancer survivors everywhere; Why Just Breasts?

October, before COID-19 hit, was the most popular brand of Cancer, but why? Do the others matter less or make less money? It appears that Breast Cancer, because it affects more women than men, and because it is rare for poor people to get the care they need, starting from the mammogram, it’s a good fit for commercialism – Like all the other wide-spread cash cows targeting women. We can do now about Cancer to honor everyone, regardless of which Cancer diagnosis.

Instead of focusing on Breast Cancer alone, this month, we are calling for A Cancer Revival – Get Up & Get Your Life Back Series! Kicking Off this Special Edition Cancer Series is Lady Jean Turner, the Urban Academics Chosen Visionary in HOT-Seat Number Seventy-one (71). She is cancer (Lung) survivor and is here to share her story of triumph and perseverance. Breast Cancer, for any survivor or family member, is sensitive. However, I too have questions around what makes breast cancer “appear” as the number one cancer type? In October, the entire world turns pink, which has little to nothing to do with its patients or victims.

In this post, you will find cancer survivor songs, stories, videos, and more! BUY a T-Shirt HERE:

Cancer vs Overall Health?

Cancer is a disease located on the inside of our bodies – We cannot see it, like an illusion, unless, of course, you or someone you know has been diagnosed with it. Moreover, having lived through it yourself or caring for and with someone makes it impossible to get over. Years later – After the diagnosis, chemotherapy, and radiation, the side effects linger on, sometimes indefinitely. Lady Jean is a board-certified nurse and Wholistic DO NOT Miss This Cancer Revival – Every Thursday in October, right here at Urban Academics.

Some definitions call it evil or a plague, and I’m sure we can all look at some of our experiences and equate them to “evil” on some level. Cancer is known to eat up a person’s inside organs, which causes death. Have you ever been in a relationship where you knew it was beating the life out of you, but for some reason, you continued in it (the relationship)? The same cycle your body will go through on the inside; The only difference is Cancer, in its purest sense, can kill you (murder)! While the cancers of this world, those are living outside of us, are merely making us feel like dying. There is a difference.

We can do about Cancer now to help others who are experiencing the effects of it, share our own experiences about it with the world, and allow GOD to heal us from the inside out. No one wants to endure Cancer of any kind, but please know, ALL Cancer Matters!

The Cancer Revival – Get Up and Get Your Life Back Series targets folks with health-related Cancer and the spiritual cancers that plaque the world daily with wars and rumors of wars. We can win the fight against Cancer if we stick together! Lady Jean Turner will share her “Lung” Cancer Story related to the work she is doing now. Please join us. There are even Breast Cancer Songs – You Can Listen or Download NOW!

Where Will Leadership Be 6 Months From Now?

353 Replies

Leadership sometimes can be a relative term because many people see it differently. However, there are norms associated with the word – In 6 months, we may be looking for those we’ve nominated and voted for to provide answers they may not have.

Within eighteen months, the entire world turned inside out and upside down – Without warning! America is ripe for a miracle, and people everywhere need a break – Especially where leadership is concerned. Some should re-visit their leadership style, while others do not lead in the first place. While leadership in the United States runs scared, it’s difficult to project six months from now, but we must plan on some level if we are to survive; And a little kindness from those in power might help? It will depend on leaders we’ve voted for and put into office – Before, during, and after COVID-19.

A new dispensation means something has changed either in how and what we do differently. With that comes uncertainty, yet a fantastic opportunity for citizens to stand up and be leaders in their business, community, home, and school. Over the next six months, many would experience unprecedented growth – With many leaders under pressure, it may be a good time to differentiate between leadership styles and management – Leadership outreach and unity, unlocked during a worldwide pandemic.

Leadership opportunities and outreach to the youth of this generation who are ready to take their power, making commitments to themselves to lead if elected officials refuse to stand. It was the best. This week’s Chosen Visionary in HOT-Seat NUmber 70 was born to lead, has the credentials to prove it, and is coming to The Urban Academics Roundtable to share his experience and wisdom learned through various leadership roles.

“Leadership! Failure to lead, Failure to organize, Failure to galvanize! This is what leaders do. We speak out, we organize, we influence; We make it happen. We don’t have that now, but I believe that there’s a new day coming in America, and we must stand together (Unity).”
Dr. Shon Neyland, Retired Colonel (US Airforce), Non-Profit CEO, and Sr. Pastor at Highland Christian Center (HCC), Portland, OR

So, where will leadership be in the next six months? Here at The Urban Academics Roundtable, we’re looking forward to hearing the leadership kindness of this week’s Chosen VIsionary in the HOT-Seat Number 70! He will unlock the unity hidden in your heart with knowledge, wisdom with valuable take-aways for leadership in organizational behaviors, leadership kindness, leadership styles in management, and leadership unity.

In addition, this Air Force Ranks Officer, during his interactive Q & A segment answers questions with kindness, providing real-time answers, and. It’s ALWAYS FREE, and you should register HERE.

Dr. Shon Neyland is The Chosen VIsionary in HOT-Seat 70

Dr. Shon Neyland is the Senior Pastor of Highland Christian Center (HCC), Portland, Oregon. Highland is a large, diverse, and growing church with over 600 members. Dr. Neyland is a Senior Executive Leader who honed his skills in the military over a 35-year career, retiring as a Colonel in the US Air Force. As the Senior Pastor of Highland, he leads a vast ministry comprised of 14 paid employees, over sixty-five (65) churches, an annual budget of $850K, and manages facilities valued over $7M.

Dr. Neyland is also the CEO of Highland Haven. This nonprofit organization provides education, community outreach, and improved health outcomes for youth and adults in underserved communities. As the CEO of Highland Haven, he leads a Board of Directors in managing a $600K budget annually, with 5 Program Directors and five Contractors.

Leadership and Colonel in the US Airforce are Synonymous

Dr. Neyland is a Retired Colonel in the US Airforce. It’s challenging to attain this military rank; Leaders only should apply.

Climbing the ranks starts from the captain, major, lieutenant colonel (middle field grade), and finally to colonel, the most senior field grade military officer rank directly below the rank of brigadier general. You do not get to this level without impeccable leadership skills, evident to higher-ranking US Military officers.

Becoming a Colonel is NOT an Easy Task

There are no shortcuts in the US Military – Everything meticulously calculated, disciplined and structured – Combined with developmental training, Dr. Neyland is a product of this environment. He rose in leadership as a high-ranking officer. Traditionally, colonels have a minimum of twenty-two years of service and at least three years of service as a lieutenant colonel before being promoted. Colonel – selects will also complete additional training to be enabled.

Dr. Neyland enlisted in the military in 1984 as a Logistic Management Specialist. He was
commissioned as an officer in 1991. Upon commissioning, Dr. Neyland served as a Nuclear Missile Launch Operator and in Space Operations. Dr. Neyland was licensed into the ministry in 1988, ordained in 1990 with the Church of God in Christ, and became an Air Force Chaplain in 1999. He has pastored several large congregations and at one time was the Senior Pastor of the largest worship service in the Air Force with over 5,000 in attendance weekly – With Signs & Wonders Following Him.

Before coming to Highland Christian Center, Dr. Neyland served 20 years as a Senior Pastor in a variety of capacities in the Air Force, including Command Chaplain for Pacific Air Forces, Command Chaplain for Air Force Materiel Command, Deputy Commandant for the Chaplain Corps College, and as Chaplain Corps Deputy Chief of Plans and Programs in the Pentagon.

Leadership Unity

Leadership is a journey and not a sprint – Dr. Neyland has proven this time and time again. Here in this video, hear his heart and passion for the country and its lack of leadership in county unity. My question is whether there is a lack of leadership or a shift in leadership happening as we speak? Take a listen and decide for yourself (10 minutes):
