On Refining, Not Retiring

"...this started about 20 years ago. I had recently stepped down. I've never really retired. I have refined and I'll explain that. But I had stepped down from Anthem and I was asked to write an article about what it was like to be running this gigantic enterprise and then suddenly go be doing startups and all other kinds of things, wilderness hiking and all kinds of things. And I wrote the title of the article, and ended up being in search of a phase name because I felt that at that time I didn't have the word yet. But I said, you know, I don't see anybody retired in the industrial age concept. The concept was you work, you retire and then you die about three or four years later, but you have a few years there. Well, it's not that way anymore. First of all, we live a lot longer. And so we're essentially increasingly changing careers or changing our direction in life in in midlife,

The Pursuit of Wisdom – Ben Lytle

In this episode, Thomas provides a detailed roadmap for parents to support their children throughout high school to maximize success in the college admissions process. Addressing each high school year individually, Thomas highlights how intentional planning, academic focus, and extracurricular depth can set students apart. This episode equips parents with practical strategies to guide their children while allowing them to explore and pursue their authentic passions. Key Takeaways   Start Freshman Year with Intentional Foundations   Focus on acclimating to high school, building study habits, and exploring interests.   Establish a strong academic base, as grades from freshman year are critical for long-term success.     Prioritize Academic Support and Adaptation   Ensure your child gets extra help when needed, whether through tutoring, peer support, or teacher engagement.   Early identification and accommodation of learning differences can be crucial, especially for standardized testing.     Sophomore Year: Focus and Refine Interests   Narrow extracurricular activities to a few key areas that align with your child’s passions.   Encourage deeper involvement outside of school activities to help them stand out in competitive applicant pools.     Junior Year: Academic Excellence and Strategic Planning   Junior year is the time to excel academically; grades here are particularly impactful.   Begin standardized test preparation early and be consistent with practice.   Engage with college counselors and begin crafting a well-balanced college list.     Leverage Summer Opportunities Thoughtfully   Summers should involve meaningful activities like internships, academic programs, or work experience.   Activities should demonstrate initiative, leadership, and alignment with academic or personal interests.     Empower Authentic Interests   Encourage students to explore what they genuinely love without overly managing their path.   Admissions officers value self-awareness and authentic passion over highly curated resumes.     Prepare for the Application Process Early   Start data entry for applications over the summer and identify key narratives for essays.   Foster relationships with teachers and counselors to ensure strong recommendation letters.     Conclusion:Planning ahead is the foundation of a successful college admissions journey. By fostering your child's authentic interests, focusing on strategic choices, and supporting their academic and extracurricular growth, you can help them navigate this process with confidence.

 I was at a big box store the other day getting a new toilet. As I passed the lumber section, I saw what looked, from far away, like a piece of walnut. On closer inspection, it was a piece of rainbow poplar in with the ugly, green big box poplar for the same price as the regular poplar. Of course I bought it. My question is: was that awesome and, if so, how awesome?Thanks, Sincerely, American Bob
Hey Gents! Canadian listener here, I found your podcast about a week ago and i have been listening every day now. Thanks for the content.I started woodworking this year and just built a new workbench using Paul Sellers plans. It has a laminated 2x3 top with a well so it's quite heavy. I use both power tools and hand tools. The main point of making this new bench was to make it heavy so it doesn't slide during hand planing, but it still slides!!! Any tips on how to prevent workbench slide?My workbench needs to float away from the wall so i am looking for a solution that isn't "put something behind it".Any tips would be greatly appreciated!Thanks again!

Guys Questions
I have a question regarding the drum sander. I only swear while doing two things, playing golf and using my drum sander.   I bought a new Supermax 16-32 and had nothing but problems with it and had to send it in for warranty repair.  I sold it and upgraded to a Powermatic PM2244 which I believe Guy has.  I definitely have had better luck with the Powermatic but still have issues with burning at times.  I do make end grain cutting boards for friends, family and donations.  I know the end grain is extremely hard.  I take very shallow passes, usually .002 to .004 per pass running the conveyor at 4 FPM and no matter how careful I am I still will get burning and grooves.  It doesn’t matter the grit of the sandpaper.  I’ve experimented with feed rate with no luck.  I know the glue does create heat and builds up on the paper so I clean the sandpaper often.  Do you have any recommendations or should I start a swear jar to raise money for charity?  Thanks again, Matt
Good evening, gentleman!  Thanks for this amazing podcast and all the info!  I had a quick question on blades for a cheap table saw.I used to use the newer delta contractors saw (miss it so much..best saw I've used)   unfortunately, had to down size.   So I'm back to my ryobi cheaper saw.   I keep the blade and adjustments true, so it cuts well....for what it is.   Yall mentioned a few weeks back, thin curf blades vs regular 10".    Question: I use a smaller circular saw blade in my table saw. Have you? Have you noticed more power and better cuts?  Because I have.  In all saws I've used.  Would you recommend using a smaller blade in a cheap table saw to get more power to the blade?     I'm just kinda wondering your thoughts on that.  I'm a one man backyard shop   that mostly is building cabinet doors out of poplar and barn doors out of pine,  and poplar.   Thoughts?    Thanks in advance!  Keep up the amazing programming!

Huy's Questions
EH gentlemen from the Niagara region in Ontario Canada, been listening to your excellent podcast for some time now and thoroughly enjoy it so thank you for that. My question concerns urns and specifically how it seals. For context, my wife's grandmother has recently passed away and I was asked by my wife's family to make her urn.I don't own a lathe but I very carefully using an angle grinder with a shaping disc, orbital sander and an excessive amount of hand sanding created a typical tapering cylindrical urn that is fatter about 1/3 of the way down from the top, tapering upwards and downwards from there and I used segmented layers to achieve this.The urn is made of blood wood and has soft maple accent rings.The lid I created was a simple circle that I used dowel pins and magnets to secure it to the top of the urn.I am extremely happy with how the urn turned out and how the lid looks on the urn but I am n

- Saving Energy: Power up with a new EPA program that boosts your home energy saving IQ.
- Floor Cleaning: Get expert grime-fighter tips for cleaning tough stains from tile floors.
 
Q & A:
- Toilet Valves: Tom wants to change the shut-off valves on his toilets. We offer tips for trimming back the pipe for a clean cut before slipping on a new compression valve.
- Cabinet Repair: Laurie’s kitchen cabinets got damaged when the floors were refinished. Remixing the paint and carefully touching up only the dinged areas will help.
- Plumbing: The bathroom pipes started vibrating after the tub was replaced. Crystal learns that the pipe brackets may not have been secured well enough.
- Outdoor Fountain: The bowel of Jack’s outdoor fountain is porous and leaking. We suggest draining and drying it well, then applying an epoxy compound to seal it.
- Snow on Roof: When snow accumulates on Terry’s glass sunroof, it slides off in sheets. She should call the manufacturer to see about adding ice guard brackets.
- Security: Robert’s property keeps getting broken into over and over! We discuss installing LED motion sensor lights and a camera system with a monitoring service.
- Uneven Floor: Deb’s floor is uneven and the stairs are twisting. It would be easier for her to adjust the staircase than to rebuild the floor.
- Insulation: Is spray foam insulation a good option to use above a basement drop ceiling? Pete wouldn’t have access to any pipes, so thermal fiber or fiberglass insulation are better choices.
