If you recall, Aaron Boyle was my podcast guest in Episode 46.  A few weeks after that aired - yeah it's been a while and I apologize - he hit me with the idea of turning the tables and interviewing me.Just like in the first, this is a great interview that you'll get a lot from.  Aaron is a fantastic interviewer and one of the reasons he and I can have these easy conversations is because of how brilliant he is.He digs into some things that helped me get this started, and a few things I haven't thought about in a while so like all the other episodes, I believe this is one you'll get a lot from.Enjoy and please help me spread the word about these lessons on life.Jeff
I met Nancy a few months ago at the art gallery of a mutual friend and decided almost immediately that I wanted to interview her for this podcast.  She has a quick wit and can take a conversation in many directions, creating the pivot or following one to an interesting outcome.  This was an honor for me to speak to such an intelligent and wise woman and I believe you'll enjoy this talk immensely.Bio:Dr. Nancy Rogers is an alum of the PhD program at the University of Cincinnati where she also teaches. Her work in academia has won awards from the Cincinnati Psychological Association and the American Evaluation Association, and her work with students won her the Barber Award for Good Faculty/Student Relations. She recently completed a graduate certificate in Teaching English to Second Language Learners, which will aide in her passion for teaching overseas. She doesn’t mind the traveling part either. When Dr. Rogers is not working you can find her bowling, fiddling, trying some artistic endeavor, looking for a new pastime, booking flights and calling her kids.Please enjoy and share - there are great lessons to be learned here.Best,Jeff

In this episode I share a bit about a few challenges I'm facing right now and my ability to bet on myself, rather than giving into doubt and fear.Will you bet on yourself when the odds may seem stacked against you?  Would you know how to help someone else make a choice in this regard if asked to assist?Look back at your wins and create a powerful momentum from them that can be your runway or ramp to move up to success.  Don't let fear creep in and destroy you or hinder you from the great things you can bring to this world when in your full power.Enjoy,Jeff

I think you’ll agree that the world has never been as complicated as it is right now.  We get closer and closer to our world with each new technology marvel to hit the shelves and the internet yet in getting this close, we also tend to lose our way in what is acceptable and what isn’t. Let’s get one thing clear right up front – this is not a guide about the latest technique to pick up women.   There is no dating advice here and The Bachelor Survival Guides website isn’t going to teach you how to score.  We’re not about that. What you will learn here and at the website is how to be a gentleman in the modern world.  You’ll learn that chivalry is not dead, and that by practicing these skills and doing the things we teach you, your character as a man will increase. You’ll gain confidence that everyone will notice and when you do start a relationship that means something to you, your new love interest will be knocked over by what she feels from you and what she sees in the way you live. Age doesn’t matter. It’s really no secret that the divorce rate is higher than it’s ever been.  And what that means is that there are single guys out there from high school graduates to executive level professionals.   Whether you’re 17 or 67, this guide, the website and the other books and media that we’ll produce will help you be a man that a woman admires and wants to be with if that’s your goal.   Guarantee We can only guarantee you that the skills you can learn here will help you get your shit together.  The rest is up to you.  If you’re ready, let’s get started.  If you’re not willing to put some time and effort into this process, thanks for checking this out and best of luck to you.  No hard feelings. Enjoy --- Jeff

The website has a very brief page on African philosophy so this is a short episode.African Philosophy is a disputed term, partly because it is not clear if it refers to philosophies with a specifically African theme or context (such as distinctively African perceptions of time, personhood, etc.), or just any philosophizing carried out by Africans (or even people of African descent).One of the earliest works of political philosophy was the Maxims of the Egyptian official and philosopher Ptah-Hotep as early as the 24th Century B.C. The Egyptian Hellenistic philosopher Plotinus of the 3rd Century B.C. is credited with founding the Neoplatonist school of philosophy.https://www.philosophybasics.com/general_african.htmlAnd as mentioned, I'm going to take just a couple of days off to decide my next route.  This wraps up 5 Minute Philosophy and I hope you enjoyed it.Back soon with another short series and we have two new interviews coming next week as well.Thanks --- Jeff
