I’ve said it time and time again on this podcast, we have a moral obligation to be happy! Friends, smiles and bad moods are contagious, so we owe it to those around us to put in the effort to be happy people. If you are not happy, it is up to you to change it. As my guest this week, Amir Siddiqui put it, “change is inevitable, growth is a choice”. Sometimes it takes a little growth to become the happy you that you should be. Just remember, happiness is a journey, not a destination.

Brenden Kumarasamy sits down with Wilk on DTH Episode 142 to discussion communication and the why?

Better Communication by Asking, How Do We Get To The Why? DTH Episode 142 with Brenden Kumarasamy

January 4, 2023 wilkwilkinson Uncategorized 0 Comments

How do we get to the why?

Far too often, people enter a conversation, or worse yet, enter an argument with someone that they disagree, and never ask the most important question. Understanding the other person’s why will always make for a better conversation or more effective argument, whether you end up agreeing or not. Communication is about leading a more fulfilling life, therefore being a better communicator leads to a more fulfilling life. Better communication often begins with the question, How do we get to the why?

Who is Brenden Kumarasamy and what is Master Talks?

Brenden Kumarasamy is all about helping people become better communicators. Brenden has acquired nearly 30,000 followers on his YouTube Channel by doing just that. After coaching many business students on how to give amazing presentations for a couple years, Brenden quickly realized that public speaking is a very difficult subject to master. There are many nuances and generalities that make people afraid to get on stage and present confidently. Because of this, Brenden created his Master Talk channel to help others master even the slightest details of their pitch so that they can gain the confidence to deliver the best presentation they’ve ever dreamed of!

Wilk and Paul Rakowicz discuss Faith, the Kingdom of Heaven and so much more in episde 116 of the Derate the Hate podcast

Episode 116: Drawing Closer to the Creator and the Kingdom of God… with Paul Rakowicz

July 6, 2022 wilkwilkinson Uncategorized 0 Comments

I recently read that a Gallup poll revealed that a record low number of Americans now believe in God. As I look around at all those that seem to be drifting through life like a ship without a rudder, it really comes as no surprise. It is very disheartening, but comes as no surprise. Is there answers to this age of outrage we’re living through in the reality that people are losing their faith?

How does loss of faith relate to Hate and Anger?
I have often heard it said that those who are strong in their faith in God are happier than those who are not. This may be an answer as to why we are seeing acts of outrage increasing while the number of Americans who believe in God are decreasing.

How do we draw closer to God the creator?
This week’s guest, Paul Rakowicz, provided some great insight into his thoughts on this topic. Paul is a fellow podcaster (The Created Order Podcast), pastor, author and Spiritual Fitness Christian Life Coach.
Topics of discussion:

Is there salvation through faith alone?What is our duty to God?What is the importance of Free Will?What is Poverty of Spirit?What is “dispassion” and the logical falacy?What does the Bible say about Government?
