The Power of Your Regrets & How Great Id...

Mike Carruthers | OmniCast Media
About this episode

Ever notice that your refrigerator has a light inside that comes on when you open the door but your freezer does not. This episode begins with the reason why that is. https://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2012/07/why-is-there-a-light-in-the-refrigerator-and-not-the-freezer/ 

While some people claim they have no regrets in life - they are probably wrong. Everyone has regrets and the pain they cause is real. What’s so interesting is that those regrets can be very helpful in creating a better life for yourself going forward. Best selling author Daniel Pink has taken a careful exploration into the world of regret and he joins me to explain the different kind of regrets we all feel and what they are telling you, if you are willing to listen. Daniel’s latest book is called. The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward (https://amzn.to/33HJhfY).

People who come up with great ideas are often the people who come up with a lot of little ideas first. That's according to my guest Anthony Fredericks, a nationally recognized educator and author of the book, From Fizzle to Sizzle: The Hidden Forces Crushing Your Creativity and How You Can Overcome Them (https://amzn.to/3u0AMY8). Listen as he explains how great ideas originate and how we are all a lot more creative than we probably think. 

When it comes to eating chicken or turkey, there is an overwhelming preference for white meat - at least in the United States. Listen as I explain the reason for that and why it might be worth giving dark meat another try. http://www.slate.com/articles/life/food/2011/01/the_dark_side_of_the_bird.html
