Leadership vs Victimhood Diagnosis: Victimhood One of the most diagnosed and at the same time, underdiagnosed problems in humans is “victimhood”. The diagnostic criteria for victimhood include: Being made to suffer or hurt Feeling helpless or stuck Externalizing blame (it’s not my fault) Focusing on what you cannot control It is augmented by a personal desire to want to have people feel sorry for you because of this, or to use it as an excuse for something, or doing nothing. It leads to small problems becoming large and oftentimes insolvable. There can be secondary gain present, which means that you may benefit from them. And there could be more to gain as you grow them. There is a cure, and the prescription is: Leadership Focusing on solutions Refusing to stay stuck in helplessness Taking responsibility for what you can control Growing through the challenges you face Be a leader, lead yourself, lead others - focus on winning each day.

Every Parent is a Communist/Socialist “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”, Karl Marx? No. Actually from a common slogan used within the socialist and communist movements a century before Marx. I would like to add that not all humans are communists or socialists, but all parents are. Having four children and lots of grandchildren and witnessing others in similar circumstances, I can attest to the veracity of my claim above. Why? To each child we give according to their needs, even if we need to take from others according to their abilities. And we are sensible enough to stop treating them like that as they grow up and become adults. Wishes for a great day to all, Each one a gift, David

100% Completely Game Changing. Turned my bbq world upside down. Not expecting that after decades time and hundreds of bbq’s. My tendency is to reverse sear my steaks. Cook them to the temperature I want while accounting for carryover cooking, letting them rest and the energy inside the steak dissipate, and then sear them. The problem is that I could never get whatever method I was going to use to sear them hot enough. Certainly not to 1500 degrees. And certainly not in 3-5 minutes. And that is what the Big Horn does, and that quickly. In fact, I used it during one of the recent snow storms in near zero degree weather. And wow, could not be happier. And there are a number of people who I have cooked lots of steaks for who have experienced the Big Horn, and each one of them, agrees - best steaks ever. Here in fact is a perfect and easy way to cook your steaks, with minimal effort and during the winter time. Use your sous vide ( https://www.eachdayagift.com/sous-vide ) and set the temperature to 133 degrees for medium rare. If you can, salt the steaks the day before using Maldon Sea Salt ( https://www.eachdayagift.com/maldon-sea-salt ). 2-3 hours in the sous vide depending on the thickness of the steak. Take them out of the bag, apply coarse black pepper and granulated garlic. Make sure you turn on your Big Horn a few minutes ahead of time. The steaks will take about 60 seconds per side, the sides of the steak 45-60 seconds and you are done. And get ready for a slice of heaven down here on Earth. And if you have to, you can cook other things on it too including fish, veggies, and pizza (it comes with a pizza stone).
