Hey, Friends and Family.

Even in the months of the podcast season when things are slow, we have content for you. Our team thought it a great idea to start reviewing previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these episodes (or beautiful Blasts from the Past) were previously broadcast, but we are sharing them with you at a time when you might need them most. Hope you enjoy!

One To Grow On:

Everybody is building something. The question is whether the building is one of quality or a series of bad habits and poor decisions that adversely affect one's future goals. I honestly believe this oldie but goodie wil bless your socks off or it will make you really upset with where you are. Or both. Let us know how this one lands.

We are all builders creating something every day through our actions, words, and habits, whether it's a legacy, relationships, or self-destructive patterns. Understanding what we're building and why is crucial for creating something of lasting value.

• What you build must have a strong foundation to withstand inevitable adversity
• Like ants preparing for winter, we must work diligently now for challenges ahead
• Our words have power to build up or tear down with consequences that last decades
• Finding your "why" is what gets you out of bed and keeps you going when others say quit
• Your "fight" - what makes you angry enough to take action - fuels purposeful building
• Nehemiah left comfort to rebuild Jerusalem because it mattered, despite opposition
• Dr. Myles Munroe: "When the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable"
• Build something that serves others rather than just yourself

What if today is the day everything shifts? Not next month, not when the stars align—today. We take that question seriously and unpack how to turn desire into readiness across your finances, habits, faith, and daily decisions. Instead of waiting for perfect timing, we map out the small, repeatable steps that build real momentum and capacity for the opportunities you’re praying for.

We share why starting where you are is the most powerful move you can make, and how to define a clear destination so your actions stop drifting. From diversifying income and organizing key documents to honing skills and surrounding yourself with wise counsel, we break down a practical approach to preparation in a world that often feels uncertain. You’ll hear plain talk about cash buffers, systems that survive disruptions, and removing distractions that crowd out the things you truly want.

We also dig into the character side of success—because when money, attention, or influence shows up, it amplifies your habits. Integrity, boundaries, and consistency aren’t optional; they’re what allow you to keep what you’ve worked for. Through simple frameworks and honest questions, we invite you to trade slogans for plans, and plans for action. If opportunity knocked right now, would you have room to let it in?

Subscribe on YouTube at @theycallmemistayu and follow our work wherever you enjoy your podcasts! And please, share this episode with someone who needs a nudge toward readiness. If this encouraged you, leave a review and tell us the next step you’re taking today.

ONE TO GROW ON:

This blast from the past hits harder than most! Finger pointing and the blame game rule the day but who escorted these people into our environments. Maybe this episode will help assign the blame squarely where it belongs!

• Drawing from dental hygiene's "tiny circles" technique, this approach to relationships requires repetition, consistency, and discipline
• We naturally categorize people into three sections: "any" (acquaintances kept at arm's length), "some" (people with some equity in our lives), and "few" (our trusted inner circle)
• The problem isn't having categories, but placing the wrong people in the wrong positions based on poor evaluation
• When support systems fail, it's similar to back pain—debilitating but not permanent
• Social media has complicated our ability to maintain boundaries, exposing us to influences we might not want
• Being friendly and compassionate doesn't mean giving everyone equal access to your life
• If relationships that worked in the past no longer bear fruit, it may be time to "cut that tree down and replant"
