The Dena Jo Morning Show!

Wednesday Fun Day! Start your day with a little sugar! #182

Today is October 11, 2023.  On today's show, I was joined by my close friend Bamm Bamm and Mike Tampa Bay to continue the talk on wisdom.  I appreciate the time they took out to call in and share their thoughts and opinions on the subject!
**First, I want to say if you are going through something, and you feel like you are all alone, and you have no reason to live, please go get help, talk to some.  The number, 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.  Or talk to a friend.  I often wonder if the people who actually go through with it if they can see all the people whom they left grieving, crying, feeling lost.  I know it when you are so down and in that pit, it is hard to understand that whatever you are going through will pass, and you will be ok. Just please go speak to some. 988.  Moving on.
**I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is "wise or wisdom"
//:  having or showing experience, knowledge, and good judgment:
"she seems kind and wise" ·
**Quote of the day:
Albert Einstein summed it up perfectly: “An intelligent person is one who solves a problem, a wise person avoids it”.
"Do not correct a fool or he will hate you.  Correct a wise man and he will appreciate you." Dalai Lama
"A smart person knows what to say.  A wise person knows whether to say it or not." -  Dalai Lama
Wisdom is deeply linked to the ability for developing a deep intuition and a correct judgement about people.  A wise person is guided not by the rules but by a much deeper conviction.  That being said, Aristophanes (Air-i-stoph-a-ness) said, "Although all laws were abolished, the wise person would continue to behave in the same way," WHY because they are guided by their principles.
I have two questions for you…what do you think being wise mean? And Who is the wisest person in your life?
When I think of a wise person, I think of someone who is experienced and kind.  Some would think someone of a certain age, but I do not think that at all. 
There are younger people who despite his or her youth, I regard as genuinely wise. It is not just solely for the elderly.
Wisdom is cultivated from the daily experiences we have all gone through.  Those experiences make you wise in that area of your life and able to use that wisdom for good in helping someone else whom is going through that same life challenge. The experiences and challenges I have gone through are completely different than all yours.
But there are so characteristics that all wise people have in common. They are often characterized by their positive traits and behaviors.
-  They don't blame others for their mistakes, they learn from them
The mature and wise person is aware that mistakes are a learning opportunity and do not look for others for their mistakes.
-  They don't let themselves be dominated by emotions
Wise people know that emotions such as anger and rage hamper intellectual development, so they value their mental health and do not allow others or circumstances to control their emotional responses.
-  They are open-minded and understand all perspectives without letting bias or emotions get in the way.
-  They never believe that they are better than anyone else.
On the contrary, wise people never believe they are superior to others.  They understand that we are all unique, all been through different circumstances, and that talking in terms of better or worse doesn't freaking matter!
They don’t assume they’re always right and don’t have a strong ego.
They are empathetic and compassionate.
They are self-aware and understand their own emotions.
They are humble and don’t feel the need to talk themselves up.
They have superior judgment.
They are curious and love learning new things.
The bottom line is, wise individuals are characterized by their ability to make good judgments based on a deep understanding and experience of life and are thoughtful, prudent, and insightful in their actions and choices.
All things you can learn.  You got this…I believe in you.
I am going to take a drink and then we will move on to the rest of the show!  Cheers
**Joke of the day:
Question: What do you call a cat that ate a lemon?
Answer: A sour puss.

Motivational and Weezer Monday! #181

Start your day with a little sugar!!
Today is Monday Oct 9, 2023.  On today's show:
**I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is "impulsive."
//: done without forethought
**Quote of the day:
"We have become a nation of thoughtless rushers, intent on doing before thinking, and hoping what we do magically works out." - Len holman
Encourage others to stop and think before responding.  Impulsiveness is the enemy of deep thinking.  - Harvey F. Silver
**What does it mean to be impulsive? 
Impulsiveness is very complex and can be both a blessing and a curse.  It isn't necessarily a good or bad thing.  It is all in how you handle the situation. 
You know you've done this before; you have fired off an offensive response to an email or said something you would later regret.  Or perhaps have done something you wish you wouldn't have.  Yes, you, like me and many others, have probably fallen victim to impulsivity.
 
There are other times your impulsiveness will pay off. 
The blessing part of impulsivity can be a motivating force behind many artistic genius.  For example, some of the best art, books, and music have come out of an impulsive action.
(You take risks, You're adventurous.)  Some might say it could be a blessing in disguise.
Now the Curses of impulsiveness:
When you ALWAYS act on impulse, you appear out of control, your behavior is erratic. Your USUALLY emotionally heated and you respond impulsively.
You allow your desires and urges to steer you down a path of destruction.  It becomes a curse when spur-of-the-moment decisions are not made out of common logic or just taking time to think it out.
Learn what triggers you:
Learn to become self-aware of what triggers you, this will help you identify the situations that often result in a bad impulsive reaction. 
If you know what your triggers are and can plan ahead of time for them, you are more likely to come up with a solution to your weaknesses.
Ask yourself the question, "What am I trying to convey by acting this way?"
Back away from the sitution:
Of course, there will be times that you need to act on a whim.  BUT in most cases, your decision can wait.  Walking away and putting some space between you and the situation can help the urge diminish. Then you can go back clear headed and respond not out of an emotional trigger.
Find a true friend, one who will tell you what you need to hear and not just kiss your ass:
OK, having a trusted friend or family member who can help curb those spurs of the moment decisions, one you can bounce your ideas off of. 
You also have to be open to hear their honest opinion, which can help you see things more clearly, from another's perspective.
Just remember the more you can strike a balance between the two, blessings & curses, the better your life will be.

It’s Fri-YAY! - Start your day with a little sugar!😁💕❤️#180

Today is Friday September 29th.  On today's show:
I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is  " appreciation "
//: recognize the full worth of: be grateful for (something):
**Quote of the day:
"Gratitude is the healthiest of all human emotions.  The more you express gratitiude for what you have, the more likely you will have even more to express gratitude for!" - Zig Ziglar
We are so busy in life these days and  sometime we do not tell the people in our lives that we love and appreciate them.  When we take the time to say "I love you" or "I appreciate you" do not take that action lightly. It is a very personal thing for them to say.
At the end of the show I tell y'all that I appreciate and love you.  Why, well 1st because I do and secondly it is because I value you as a part of my life.  You make my life so a happier place, and I might be the only person who tell's you that.
But like I started out by saying that we usually do not tell that we appreciate them, MOST of us are used to being unappreciated during our day to day lives.  You might be a single parent who faces the difficulties by yourself. Or you work for someone whom does not show you any appreciate for your hard work and time. 
That simple set of words can change someone's outlook because they know they have been noticed.  AND It is such a simple thing to do.  Just make sure it comes from the heart.
"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them."  - John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Let us do better, be kinder.  I believe in you, you got this!
**Joke of the day:
Question: What type of cheese is not yours?
Answer: Nacho cheese!
**Fact of the day:
The universe is full of pointless but endlessly amusing tidbits about life, nature, and everything in between. What's the deal with cats' aloofness, why do bees die when they sting you, and do gas giants really smell as bad as they sound? Read on to find out!
Now these are WWE Facts:
-  The Undertaker once defeated the ‘The Great Khali’ in a singles match in 2006 at WWE’s ‘Judgment Day’ PPV event.
-  WWE wrestler Triple H used to work in a gym as a personal trainer before he was signed by the WWE.
-  WWE wrestler Sheamus was a bodyguard for Bono, the lead singer of U2, before he joined the wrestling world.
-  WWE wrestler Mankind once competed in a match where he was handcuffed and thrown off the top of a 16-foot-high cell.

Wednesday Fun Day - Start your day with a little sugar!😁💕❤️#179

Today is Wednesday September 27th.  On today's show:
I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is   " con·ceit·ed "
//: excessively proud of oneself; vain
**Quote of the day:
"If a man thinks he is not conceited, he is very conceited indeed." - C. S. Lewis
Definition of conceited
Conceited means having an ex-ag-gerated sense of self-importance or pride.
I know that you have be fortunate (hhmm remember we are supposed to step and look at these blanks as messengers, ok back to it) I know that you have be fortunate enough to have met or had that person in your life that thinks the world revolves around them?  They spend their lives sitting on their high horse and refuse to come down.  They are conceited!!
There is absolutely no benefits about having someone in your life who thinks they are better than you, period!  99.5% of conceited people are toxic.
They are draining and bad for your health.  You need to know how to spot a conceited person and how to handle them before it is too late.
- They are arrogant
When they are being arrogant, they will be disrespectful to others and their views & opinions.  Because they view themselves as more intelligent than you.  They do not see you as an equal, especially if you have confronted them.
- They think they are always right
They think a lot of themselves, and never think they are wrong, and will never admit it!
They will ensure that their voice is the loudest, so no one else's opinion can be expressed.  They will even mute you if they have a chance, if simply because they feel the view is the best and you should not be heard.
-  They have a superiority complex
superriority
They always want to be the highest rank.  They CRAVE constant confirmation that they are the best, boasting numbers or charts to prove their conceit.
-  They won't give credit to anyone else
No matter their real contribution to the project, they will get others to do all the work, when they sit back doing nothing but push buttons BUT want their name first.  No matter how many people helped them achieve a goal along the way, they'll always downplay it.
And- They need constant reassurance
Instead of being humble and insecure on the outside, they constantly set up opportunities for others to take notice of them and hopefully agree with their bragging.
If this is someone you love, have a conversation with them.   I will warn you thou, again they do not like being told they are wrong.  There might be an argument. 
You have to come to understand that you deserve to be treated with respect. 
Remember…"A conceited person never gets anywhere because he thinks he is already there!!"  hahaha
You got this, I believe in you!
Let's all take a drink, before the joke and fact of the day.
**Joke of the day:
Question: Which birds always stick together?
Answer: Vel-crows.
**Fact of the day:
The universe is full of pointless but endlessly amusing tidbits about life, nature, and everything in between. What's the deal with cats' aloofness, why do bees die when they sting you, and do gas giants really smell as bad as they sound? Read on to find out!
Did you know:  Female dragonflies have been known to play dead simply to avoid being sexually harassed by their male counterparts.
I looked it up at here you go:
Female dragonflies fake their own death in order to avoid being mated with by males. This behavior, called sexual death feigning, evolved to protect females against aggressive males who can injure or kill them during mating. When a female dragonfly sees an unwanted male approaching, she falls from the sky and lies motionless on the ground until he leaves. This strategy is used by female moorland hawker dragonflies and possibly other species.

Motivational Monday round ONE #178

This is the pre show before podbean checked out!

Motivational Monday! Start your day with a little sugar!😁❤️💕#177

Today is Monday September 25th.  On today's show:
I was joined today by my close friend Tuddles (Bamm Bamm to me!) and JIMMY, we chatted about memories of the different chocolate milk products and breakfast we ate and drank growing up.  
I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is " Persevere "            
//: continue in a course of action even in the face of difficulty or with little or no prospect of success:
**Quote of the day:
"A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles." - Christopher Reeve
Are you going through something? We all seem to be.  Are you waiting on those circumstances to change so then you can be happy or have a good attitude?
To persevere means to persist in a state, enterprise, or undertaking in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement.
No matter what is coming against you, you need to keep getting up.  With each sock in the gut, get back up.  No matter what you may be facing in life, if you know to get up on the inside, adversities cannot keep you down.  Do not allow those circumstances to keep you in the pit any longer than you need too. 
But how do you do that?  How do you push on when you're at your lowest and just want to crawl away and hide from the world?
One of the best things you can do is take that step back and remember the times In the past when you refused to give up.  It can help you summon the perseverance you may need now.  Because we were not created to live a depressed or defeat life! 
You must get out of that defeated thinking and start thinking and believing positively.  You cannot let the doubt cloud your determination, which by the way will continue to weaken your spirit.
So no matter how long you may have been dealing with something, all your life, a few weeks or for a long time, just remember to keep a good attitude.
NO MATTER WHAT…every time you get knocked down, laugh in the face of that adversity and get the heck back up!!  You got this, I believe in you.
I will be right back with some Motivational Stories, This is the time in the show if you have a positive story you would like to share, you are welcome to call in.
**Motivational Stories
Everyday, countless events take place that make our world a bit brighter — we just usually hear about the negative. Here is what went right this past week:
-  Oklahoma Zoo Forecasts ‘Cloudy with a chance of cute’ After Rare Clouded Leopard Kitten Born
-  Sherpas Laughing in the Face of Death While Saving Partner Who Fell 200 Feet into an Everest Crevasse
-  40 ‘Heroes’ Lift a Berlin City Bus Off Trapped Young Man
-  Fishmongers found a rare blue lobster. Instead of selling it, they found a place it could live a happy life
**Joke of the day:
Question: What did the mama lion say to her cub before dinner?
Answer: Let us prey.
**Fact of the day:
The universe is full of pointless but endlessly amusing tidbits about life, nature, and everything in between. What's the deal with cats' aloofness, why do bees die when they sting you, and do gas giants really smell as bad as they sound? Read on to find out!
Did you know:  In Pacific Grove, California, it is illegal to threaten or kill monarch butterflies, which enjoy a sanctuary in the city. If you don't leave the butterflies alone, you risk a fine of up to $1,000!

It’s Fri-YAY - Start your day with a little sugar!😁💕❤️#176

Today is Fri-YAY September 22nd, on today's show:
I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is  " trigger "
//: An event or circumstance that is the cause of a particular action, process, or situation.
**Quote of the day:
"Heal your heart so that you can stop living at the mercy of your triggers." -  Loving me after we
It happens to us all.  You are having a great day and then something happens, or someone says something and you get triggered? First let me start by explaining what a trigger is.  A trigger can be anything (traumatic experience, childhood wounds) that creates an irrational emotional response.
So do you know what triggers you?
Once  you understand what or who triggers you, and identify those triggers in our lives, we are maturing and learning about ourselves.
If we stepped back, and looked at the people who trigger us to feel a negative emotion as messengers, hear me out, it can change the future of that trigger.
Yes, that person might be a complete A-hole BUT when think of them as just being the messenger (air quotes (the trigger) of something that lives deep inside us (the event, that we have not completely dealt with or healed from) then we step back from that anger, and examine what needs to be done to heal.
Remember you have to get outside of the jar in order to read the label!
If you just avoid your triggers, you will not heal.  Healing only happens when you are able to move through the pain, notice the pattern, and the story and decide to move your way to a different ending.  A ending without that specific trigger having power over you anymore!
And you can move on with your life.  I believe in you… you got this!
**Joke of the day:
Question:  Do you know where football players go to buy new uniforms?
Answer:  They go to New Jersey.
**Fact of the day:
1912 Philadelphia second baseman Eddie Collins becomes only player in MLB history to steal 6 bases in one game for a second time as A's beat St. Louis Browns, 8-2

- I wanted to talk CU and Coach Prime.  I really like him.  He is such a great motivator.  If you watched the mile high show down, you might have seen this moment.   Play video.

Wednesday Fun Day - Start your day with a little sugar!😁💕❤️#175

Today is Wednesday September 20th, on today's show:
I am going to start of the day with the word of the day & quote of the day. A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT IN A WORLD OF HATE, Let's go!
Today's word of the day is "Excellence"
//: extremely good; outstanding:
**Quote of the day:
"Excellence is the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what you have to offer." - Rick Pitino
What is excellence?  I think you should strive for excellence and not perfection.  In the past, I used to confuse the two - excellence and perfection.  When we strive for excellence we have values and high standards.  Which is a great thing!  Both help us to solve problems and do a quality job.
Perfectionist are people that have very high expectations of themselves, to the point of often being very self-critical and setting standards that are usually unattainable.  Were excellence is defined as aiming and striving towards very high but attainable standards. People with excellence also require of themselves a outstanding work ethic.  They understand that striving for excellence is an ongoing process.  They know there is always room for self-improvement. And that is what will separate you from non-achievers.
A person of excellence:
- adds value to himself and to others
- goes the extra mile in all endeavors
- thinks of consequences before taking any action
- Doesn't tolerate or encourage hypocrisy
- is not satisfied with average
-  pays attention to details
-  to earn respect and merit
-  seeks to always make a difference in people's lives
- is consistent in good behavior, manners and attitude towards people and responsibilities
-  stands out everywhere he goes.  He doesn't fit in with the crowd
-  is a positive influencer, a sensitive or empathetic individual
Remember being a person of excellence Is not determined by anyone's behavior towards you,  because you will be taken for granted, unappreciated, overlooked or even mistreated for being different, but your worth cannot be tied up in praise from men.  Is it easier to compromise your standards & beliefs to be like everyone??  Sure BUT copycats have shorter shelf life! 
You got this!  I believe in you.
Be right back with Joke of the day and trending:
**Joke of the day:
Question: What do you call an alligator wearing a vest?
A: An investigator.
**Fact of the day:
It has been illegal to chew chewing gum in Singapore since 1992, when Goh Chok Tong – who had just become Prime Minister – passed the ban into law. Exemptions are in place, however, for people with medically certified digestive problems or smokers who want to quit.
