Gain respect and trust with the Servant Leadership mindset

• Author Crystal Fisher

Joining an organization where you are expected to manage an established team can be difficult. You are often battling bias, skepticism, and maybe even resentment. Not to mention, you may be competing with the glorified memory of the previous manager or are now managing a team member who also applied for your position. All that to say, that 9 times out of 10, the cards are stacked against you when you walk into a situation like this. So how do you overcome the beginning awkwardness and difficulties to create a cohesive team that wants to work with you? The first thing to recognize is that respect and trust take time to build. It will not happen overnight. It must be earned. And one of the best ways to do this is by adopting the Servant Leadership style of managing. This method can be an effective way to increase morale, collaboration, and productivity – by prioritizing the individuals rather than the company at large. Simply put, this approach can go a long way towards establishing the respect and trust of your team.

The term Servant Leadership was first coined in the 70s and remains a relevant hot topic in today’s business world. A great book that really goes into depth on this concept is “Leaders Eat Last” by Simon Sinek, and I highly recommend checking it out. But for now, here are 5 ways to implement this strategy:

1. Establish credibility

First things first – Only speak authoritatively on topics of which you have experience or knowledge. The “fake it until you make it” mantra is not a good one to have when you are joining a new team, especially if they have been working in the space longer than you. Remember that you don’t have to be an expert on everything (that’s why you have a team!). It is your job as a leader to understand each team member’s strengths, and by showing compassion and sharing your expectations, you’ll establish a solid foundation.

2. Use the “royal we”

You have probably heard the phrase “praise in public, criticize in private.” While this is an important tactic to adopt, it is even more critical that your team knows that you have their backs. Using language like “we” and “us” when presenting new directives or in taking negative feedback from the bigger organization will further enforce that feeling of togetherness. By fostering collaboration among the team members, you convey the message that “we succeed together, and we grow together.”

3. Be willing to get your hands dirty

The greatest way to earn respect and trust is by showing your team that you aren’t afraid to do the hard work. Break down the construct that leaders sit in ivory towers and only bark orders. Your willingness to work alongside them occasionally will further enforce the idea that you have their backs and that you understand the work they are doing. Empathy goes a long way in building a relationship.

4. Pump the breaks on the toxic positivity

Sure, creating a positive environment directly leads to having a healthy team morale. However, it must be authentic and takes time to create. Team members want to feel supported, heard, and valued. This cannot be accomplished by simply bringing donuts in on Fridays and keeping a smile plastered on your face during each conversation. If the effort is disingenuous then every small act will be interpreted as a poor attempt to “buy loyalty” and have the team skeptical of your true motives.

5. Don’t make drastic changes too early

Finally, it is important to recognize the established culture of the team. It may be toxic or different than you are used to, and you may have even been hired to change it. However, it is important to understand the underlying reasons of the culture. Coming in and changing things too quickly can be perceived as an “outsider” trespassing in an area they don’t belong. This can create a wedge of “us” versus “them” mentality and undermine any progress or trust that may have started to develop. When it is time to implement a change, be sure to communicate the “why” behind the decision and gather feedback and ideas on how the change can be rolled out successfully. Remember, your team wants to feel included and heard.

While there is certainly no singular way to manage, this is one philosophy that has been extensively researched in Forbes and adopted by major companies such as Google and Starbucks. Being a leader is often a delicate tight rope act and not for the faint of heart, as you may be dealing with multiple personalities and stylistic differences. It may be appropriate to change management styles, depending on the situation. However, mastering the art of relationship building and Servant Leadership is will prove to be beneficial in every job market.

How To Become The Most Feared Offensive Lineman In Your League

• By Chrisian Benavides
 

---

While there’s nothing glamorous about being an offensive lineman, it is a position that allows you to be aggressive and physical every single play.

There’s nothing better than dominating another player in a man-to-man matchup, driving him into the ground as your running back sprints untouched through the epic hole you just created.

This position isn’t easy. To be a great offensive lineman, you need strength. You need agility and finesse. And you need more tenacity than every other position combined.

Here are 4 ways to become the most feared offensive lineman in your league.

1. Improve Your Stance

The key to determining who wins the battle between the offensive and defensive lineman is the first step. To achieve the quickest first step, your stance needs to be constructed in a way that allows your body to quickly react.

Since the center is in charge of assessing the defense and snapping the ball, his stance requires feet shoulder width apart and even with each other.

Guards and tackles will have a stance where feet are still shoulder width apart, but slightly staggered, meaning the outside foot will be farther back than the inside foot. The outside foot should be positioned so that the toe is aligned with the heel of the inside foot. This allows for a quick reaction, either backwards for pass blocking or forward for run blocking.

In certain situations, depending on the coaches’ preference, one hand may be on the ground in a 3-point stance, which is used mainly for run blocking scenarios since it allows you to be the “lower man.”  In pass blocking situations, it is common for the inside hand to be on your thigh while your outside hand is in a “ready to strike” position.

Correct stance posture is essential to determine the strength of your base of support. No one will be able to push you around when your base is strong.

2. Master Your Footwork

A great lineman not only has a lot of power, he also has feet that are as delicate as a ballerina… albeit a very large ballerina.

As we mentioned before, the first step is often the key in determining who wins the battle. Quick feet are essential for getting your hands on the defense before they reach you, getting into an effective pass blocking position, and running out in front of your running backs and quarterback to clear those smaller defensive backs out of their way.

To improve the quickness of your feet, there are a variety of advanced linemen techniques that can be utilized, the most common being running footwork drills through a rope ladder. Setting up cones and running drills like the shuttle run also improve feet dexterity. Make your feet quicker and you become more dangerous.

3. Learn the Power of Leverage

Arguably one of the most important characteristics of a dominant offensive lineman is his ability to consistently gain leverage on his opponents.

Leverage gives even the smallest lineman the ability to put a large defender on his back. In a run-blocking situation, the lowest man always wins. When a lineman gets under the pads of his opponent, he has the leverage to move the defense in any direction, and 9 times out of 10, he’ll win the play.

Gaining leverage requires an offensive lineman to be able to fire out of his stance quickly AND with accuracy. It requires frequent repetition, which is why most offensive line coaches start each practice by having their players practice exploding from their stance into practice dummies.

To practice firing off low, coaches often have players practice under a chute, which is a contraption that does not allow the player to stand up. The more practice under the chute, the more accustomed you get to staying low on the field. With the proper usage of speed, power, and leverage, you will be an unstoppable force.

4. Gain Physical and Mental Toughness

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of an offensive lineman is toughness. To be completely dominant, it is essential that you be the toughest person on the field.

The offensive line is a violent position that requires physical and mental toughness every single play. A running back, quarterback, and wide receiver can get away with not touching a single defensive player on some plays, but an offensive lineman`s sole responsibility is to engage with the opponent play after play.

Being physically tough is the combination of strength and aggressiveness that translates into shear power on the field. Being physically tough is earned in the weight room and out on the practice field.

Being mentally tough is the ability to overcome fatigue play after play and to out-will your opponent over the course of the game. It's the ability to follow through on your assignment every single play. There is no limit on your mental toughness. You can be as tough as you want to be and there is no such thing as being “too mentally tough”.

They Will Fear You

For a player, the offensive line is one of the most exciting positions on the field. There is nothing more satisfying than being dominant on the O-line.

If you consistently improve your stance, master your footwork, utilize leverage, and increase your toughness, you WILL be feared on the gridiron this fall.

Never stop working. Never stop getting better.

Wellness For Life! Will Media Ignore This New CDC Study About Soda 🥤 and Sleep? And How to Overcome Weight Loss Challenges

 

How to Overcome Weight Loss Challenges

• Author Lim Shady

Weight loss is often more of a challenge than anticipated

You decide to lose weight. That's easy. So you sign up for a gym membership or start a diet program. Even easier. Once you start you find out it isn't easy at all.

Soda drinkers, people who under-sleep and don't exercise regularly are more likely to be hospitalized by the virus compared to those who live healthier lives, new study finds. Support Sleep and Relaxation with this updated Myo Relax by MYOXCIENCE Nutrition

In fact, it's pretty painful, both physically and emotionally. Exhaustion sets in and instead of getting results you wanted, you just want to give up. Maybe you think "well, maybe next year" and old habits resume. Here is the story of nearly every weight loss program ever embarked upon by would-be "losers" who just couldn't bear the "pain" that comes with making it to the goal. What happens? Is it possible to overcome?

Weight loss is painful proportionate to the amount of toxins involved

Weight gain is not a health issue so much as a symptom of one. So-called "foods" which are ingested that are considered toxic by the body accumulate and create havoc through malfunction internally. The body starts to break down from there. In other words, the body falls out of a state of health due to lack of nourishment.

Weight gain is a major symptom of this but other symptoms like aches and pains, tension, stress and many others can also occur. One of the first things that happens when you attempt to lose the weight by eating a more nourishing diet and exercising is that the body begins to let go of those toxins.

Here's what happens.

When the body is exposed to toxins - whether from the food eaten (chemicals, GMO stuff, excess sugars and refined carbs - the list goes on... ) it can get rid of a certain amount through body function, if that body is relatively healthy. However, the body can only offload a certain amount so, in order to protect itself, excess toxins are coated with fat and deposited in the fatty tissue.

That sounds good. But... there's more to it.

Caffeine is one of the most obvious examples of an "addiction" by the body as evidenced by the withdrawal symptoms experienced when stopping its consumption. Any toxin will have this effect on the body. Toxins from processed foods such as diet sodas and packaged, non-whole foods will need to be expelled for health to be restored and those pounds to come off. Withdrawal symptoms abound in many cases.

Here's what happens. When you start losing weight, the body starts detoxifying - the toxins locked up in the fatty tissue are released back into the bloodstream. Whatever those toxic particles are connected to - for example getting drunk in a bar and having a fight with your spouse and/or getting beaten up - whatever the incident is - those emotions, discomforts (physical or emotional) will be re-experienced, unknown to you.

For some people this can be very intense or very uncomfortable or even painful.

That's when many give up the weight loss decision.

Withdrawal doesn't have to be very painful at all

One of the characteristics of withdrawal is the depletion of minerals from the body. Deficiencies are created by the detoxification process which is where all the pain and discomfort can come in. This is where calcium and magnesium, once again, come into play most vitally. Maintaining these levels is ever more important in the detoxification process as well as recovery from exercise. This is paramount because here we have the foremost reasons people give up on weight loss. These mineral levels can be the difference between success and failure.

How to achieve weight loss for real without quitting

While there is still some mental challenge to it, there does not have to be any pain in achieving weight loss and there could be a reduction in the mental challenge too. With proper minerals, exercise and a diet rich in whole foods, not processed, success can be gained and goals can be reached in fact.

As a detox specialist, I have seen many people helped to get through these discomforts with the right diet and correct calcium and magnesium in balance and with the right pH.I am always happy to help you. My wish for you is a happy, healthy body. You CAN do it and that's my wish for you.

Who is Attorney Andrew Branca? Does His Opinion Matter?

by Matthew Maruster 

Attorney Andrew Branca is making waves with his daily analysis of the Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial. National mainstream media news even are asking that he share his legal opinions on this volatile case. For many, Attorney Branca's name might be new. However, to us at Concealed Carry, Atty. Branca has long been known for his expertise in the area of self-defense law.

The not-guilty verdicts on all counts against Kyle Rittenhouse may surprise some.

And truthfully, we never know what a jury will find, but Attorney Branca's daily coverage of the trial pointed to this acquittal as a rational evidence-supported outcome.

Who is Andrew Branca?

I am not writing a biography on the man. However, it is probably appropriate to establish a little background as to why his legal opinion would matter in the least.

Atty. Branca's understanding of self-defense law comes from his 30 plus years of legal work in the state of Massachusetts. This recent interest in Atty. Branca isn't new for the national media. Over the years, outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, the Chicago Tribune, the Washington Post have referred to Branca's thoughts on legal self-defense issues.

Andrew is an occasional Guest Instructor and subject matter expert (SME) on self-defense law at the following:

• Federal Bureau of Investigation's National Academy at Quantico
• And the Sig Sauer Academy

Andrew has been the legal expert co-host on the Outdoor Channel's TV show The Best Defense.

Attorney, Author, Instructor:

Attorney Branca's the author of a book titled The Law of Self Defense Principles. This is the book I repeatedly refer others to as the most thorough yet easy-to-understand explanation of self-defense law.

In addition to Andrew's book, his online and DVD courses of the same name provide incredible insight and teaching, critical for concealed carriers' understanding of crucial legal self-defense law. While Branca practices law in Massachusetts, he's put together supplemental courses for each state in the country explaining the various statutes and case law pertaining specifically to that state's self-defense law.

Andrew Branca has carefully constructed an instructor program and other courses to help grasp the complexities of legal self-defense.

Our Respect for Branca's Legal Opinions:

It shouldn't be a surprise that a significant percentage of our audience are folks who carry a firearm for self-defense. We always suggest that you seek competent legal representation if you have legal questions about your state's self-defense laws and how the court has applied them in actual cases.

That said, Attorney Branca's legal opinions are sound, and he explains them with logical reasoning. That is to say, his books and instruction are instrumental and provide an invaluable foundation for an understanding of self-defense law.

As a site that tries to provide a wealth of instructional information to our audience, we've been a conduit for Andrew's expert legal analysis.

Andrew Branca Has appeared as a guest on our highly ranked Concealed Carry Podcast. Here are just some of the episodes:

Episode 148 – Discussing Stand Your Ground Law

Episode 212 – Self-Defense Law Q&A

Episode 330 – Legal Q&A with Andrew Branca and Chad Enos

Episode 440 – The Gray Area, When You Can Make Threats With a Gun

Finally:

I hope this post helps you learn more about Attorney Branca and why experts like Massad Ayoob wrote the forward to Andrew's The Law of Self Defense book.

What's more, the legal team at CCW Safe, my recommendation for the best self-defense legal defense organization, respects his opinions on self-defense law, and syndicate some of his trial coverage.

I'll close with Attorney Branca's catchphrase:

Carry A Gun So You're Hard To Kill, Know The Law So You're Hard To Convict
