An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Pass the Break the Cycle of Violence Act (H.R 5003/S. 2638)!

783 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

Every 11 minutes, someone’s life is lost to gun violence in the United States. In an average year, this public health crisis claims more than 40,000 lives and wounds twice as many. For the lives lost and the loved ones left behind, there is no way to capture the true cost of this epidemic, but every year, the United States chooses to spend $557 billion on the consequences of gun violence rather than stopping it before it happens. Gun violence is not normal, and Americans do not need to accept it as such. We have the tools, strategies, and people to prevent these daily tragedies, but for too long, the federal government has dramatically underspent on proven community-based programs that address the root causes of gun violence, while allocating billions of dollars to reactive interventions that have historically failed to keep Americans safe. The status quo isn’t working. That’s why we need the Break the Cycle of Violence Act (H.R 5003/S. 2638). The Break the Cycle of Violence Act would provide $5 billion in federal grants for community violence intervention programs and $1.5 billion in workforce initiatives that are proven to reduce gun violence. These programs make communities safer by investing directly in the people and communities most affected to stop gun violence before it happens. Grants funded by the Break the Cycle of Violence Act will support local programs that use proven strategies to reduce community violence without contributing to mass incarceration. Communities that have invested in these interventions have seen reductions in gun homicides by as much as 60 percent, saving taxpayers up to $41 in emergency services for each dollar spent. These much-needed resources will also expand economic opportunity to communities grappling with trauma, systemic neglect, divestment, and long-standing hardships.

ROOT CAUSE:

Our food system’s bombardment of ultra processed anti-inflammatory foods, our addiction to & regular consumption of those foods, & high stress-sedentary lifestyles.

RESULT:

Metabolic dysfunction, 74% of American adults overweight or obese, and 128 million Americans with prediabetes or Type II diabetes.

FIX:

Unplug from the matrix. Eat real foods again. Create space to offload, be creative & destress. Move your body. I.E. Do the opposite of what the government recommends & what’s considered societal norms, & you’ll win your health back.

Harmoniously Happy

I don’t hear many people talk about being harmoniously happy, but it is a thing in my life. I wrote a poem about being harmoniously happy and I share it with you below… The answers to being harmoniously happy are expressed quite clearly in the poem – “be aligned”. Align yourself to your core values and that’s where you’ll find it. There is so much beauty and power in being true to yourself –…

Cultivating a Culture of Root Cause Analysis for Nonconformances

Quality demands unwavering attention to detail. Quality management ensures foolproof products and services, saving costs and other resources. However, maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency can be a little overwhelming in today's continuously changing business environment.

Gone are the days when quality was an afterthought. The post-pandemic world is intolerant to quality deviations, extracting a steep price from those who violate set quality norms and procedures. Quality Management software helps streamline quality management and enables a conducive environment for error-free business operations.

Nonconformances lead to quality issues, driving down profit and damaging brand reputation. Nonconformance Management Software helps identify deviations in the initial phase of production, ensuring quality standards. One critical strategy for achieving robust quality and conformance is implementing a culture of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to address nonconformances.

RCA is a well-defined approach to identifying the underlying causes of problems or defects. By focusing on these root causes, organizations can prevent recurrence and improve overall quality. Nonconformance Management Software is pivotal to eliminating non-conformances.

This blog explores the importance of RCA, strategies for cultivating this culture, and best practices for effective and efficient implementation.

Understanding Root Cause Analysis

What is Root Cause Analysis?

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a methodical approach to identifying the fundamental reasons behind problems. Rather than treating symptoms, RCA seeks to uncover the underlying issues that cause nonconformances. This method is crucial in quality management, ensuring that problems are permanently resolved rather than temporarily fixed.

Importance of RCA in Quality Management

The significance of RCA in quality management cannot be overstated. By identifying and addressing root causes, organizations can:

Improve Product Quality: Eliminating the root causes of defects betters the overall quality of products.

Increase Customer Satisfaction: High-quality products lead to happier customers and repeat business.

Reduce Costs: Preventing recurring issues saves money on repairs, rework, and warranty claims.

Enhance Efficiency: Modernized processes with fewer defects result in higher operational efficiency.

Building a Culture of Root Cause Analysis

Commitment from Leadership

Cultivating a culture of RCA starts at the top. Leadership must demonstrate a strong commitment to quality and problem-solving. This involves:

Setting Clear Expectations: Leaders should communicate the importance of RCA and set clear expectations for its use.

Providing Resources: Allocating resources such as time, tools, and training for RCA activities is crucial.

Leading by Example: Leaders should participate in RCA processes and encourage their teams to do the same.

Training and Education

Training employees on RCA techniques is essential for building competence and confidence. Key training components include:

RCA Methodologies: Teaching various RCA methodologies such as the 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagram, and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA).

Problem-Solving Skills: Enhancing general problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.

Case Studies: Analyzing real-life case studies to understand the practical application of RCA.

Encouraging Open Communication

Open communication promotes an environment where employees feel comfortable reporting nonconformances. (1) Create a Safe Environment: Ensure employees can report issues without fear of blame or retribution. (2) Promote Collaboration: Encourage cross-functional teams to collaborate on RCA, leveraging diverse perspectives. (3) Feedback Mechanisms: Implement mechanisms for providing feedback on RCA outcomes to continuously improve processes.

Implementing RCA: Best Practices

Selecting the Right RCA Tools Choosing the appropriate RCA tools is vital for effective problem-solving. Popular tools include:

5 Whys Analysis: A simple technique that involves asking "Why?" five times to drill down to the root cause.

Fishbone Diagram: Also known as the Ishikawa or cause-and-effect diagram, this tool helps identify potential causes of a problem.

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): A proactive method for identifying potential failure modes and their impact.

Conducting Effective RCA Sessions

RCA sessions should be structured and focused. Key steps include:

Define the Problem: Clearly articulate the problem or nonconformance.

Collect Data: Gather relevant data and evidence to understand the problem's context.

Identify Root Causes: Use selected RCA tools to identify underlying causes.

Develop Action Plans: Create actionable plans to address root causes and prevent recurrence.

Implement Solutions: Execute the action plans and monitor their effectiveness.

Monitoring and Continuous Improvement

RCA is not a one-time activity but an ongoing process. To ensure continuous improvement:

Track Progress: Monitor the implementation of action plans and their impact on quality.

Review and Adjust: Regularly review RCA outcomes and adjust strategies as needed.

Celebrate Successes: Recognize and celebrate successful RCA efforts to reinforce the importance of quality.

Challenges and Solutions

Overcoming Resistance

Resistance to change is a common challenge when implementing RCA. To overcome this:

Communicate Benefits: Communicate the benefits of RCA to all stakeholders.

Involve Employees: Engage employees in the RCA process and seek their input.

Provide Support: Offer continuous support and resources to ease the transition.

Ensuring Consistency

Consistency in RCA practices is crucial for effectiveness. Ensure consistency by:

Standardizing Procedures: Develop standardized procedures and templates for RCA activities.

Regular Training: Conduct regular training sessions to keep skills sharp and updated.

Auditing and Review: Perform regular audits to ensure adherence to RCA processes and identify areas for improvement.

Conclusion

Nonconformances are costly as they lead to product rework and recall. Nonconformance Software Management modernizes the process, eliminating shortcomings and ensuring quality. Cultivating a culture of Root Cause Analysis for nonconformances is essential for achieving and maintaining high-quality standards in any organization.

Organizations can significantly improve their quality management processes by committing to RCA, training employees, encouraging open communication, and implementing best practices. Although challenges exist, they can be effectively managed through clear communication, employee involvement, and continuous support. A robust RCA culture leads to better products, higher customer satisfaction, and greater operational efficiency.

My mind is and was occupied with relatively serious stuff and changes past 2 months. Maybe it’s time to say things out loud and get them out of the system.

Moved houses, that can be considered as a good change, that’d improve my ways of living, in a smallest sense, even… the process was tough and time consuming with painting etc but again, this was a good occupience.

And then, for about a month, im having digestive issues. And it’s going nowhere as of today. Had many tests, blood, urine, feces, X-rays, ultrasounds… all came back clean but i still have issues with stomach… which leads to either more serious shit like cancer etc or an allergy that i have been tested in the past but developed somehow later on in my life… at least the two options I can think about now.

I feel so preoccupied with thinking. And my ways, my character doesn't help with the situation. I’ve had a similar issue 4 months back, but it had a name (gastroentiridis) and it was clear what it was and could’ve been solved within a month.

Now with this new shit, nothing shows up on blood, ultrasound, X-rays, feces etc and the uncertainty is eating me up, alongside of almost bi-daily stomach pain.

Hear me out, I took precautions. Whoever knows me knows that I like to cook at home, amongst all, it serves my year long diet. I rarely order something from outside, especially when I’m alone, which is most of the times (no complaining)

I had this issue for about 2 weeks, then when it did not go away, went to doctors, did the tests etc, used antibiotics, stomach regulator drug, and after all this treatment, plus 2 weeks, today the issue seem to persist with the doctors could not have pinpoint where is and what is the rootcause of it.

And this last 2 weeks, i’ve took steps extra carefully, even bought bottled water thinking something might’ve been off with water since I don’t consume anything else that is out of ordinary from outside. Stopped alcohol altogether, for a whole week. Took my antibiotics every 12 hrs exactly, why I’m elaborating this is that I did everything by the book, and they still cant find/know what is wrong and my body cannot seem to resolve it.

Now, on top of all that, I tried to maintain my lifestyle, went to gym even with pain, or resisted the urges to my vices to eat out or drink alcohol etc, but mind-wise, I was so preoccupied with uncertainty, when I finished antibiotics and got a bit better, I relaxed a bit, but it returned today, seems like I cannot recover.

Now, being alone in a country with not many people that keeps tabs on you (life, what can you do-everyone has their own life too) ~ your mind tends to go to darker places; especially when there is uncertainty about health stuff.

And when mine did too, it thought of genetic factors, since there were no logical reasoning the tests can came up with. And those genetic factors are the family history with cancer and tumor; losing 3 of 4 uncles (one from dad’s side at around late 50s, 2 from mom’s side, at 33 and 45 years of age) , my grandma having 7 operations in various places on her body due to cancer (survivor) ~ I kind of went existentialist on this, and accepted that it could be something serious for me too.

I mentioned this to doctors too, 2 weeks back, in case she’d want further examinations for internal organs, but she had said that it was not needed (public hospitals ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) for the moment being, and I needed to check myself within a month to keep on trying to find a reason for this problem.

We’re within 2nd week of that 1 month of recovery period, and I have the issue back like the first days it seems.

I don’t know what to think about, not mentally only but also physically. Having to go through anything you do, even drinking water without a subtle and constant pain feels like long history. How tf do we take granted being healthy, and forget like we are going to be healthy forever. I guess that’s called being human.

This human is tired of thinking about uncertain health issues and dealing with physical pain and also having to maintain a social and a professional life, like everything is normal. I am worried, but not scared, worried of not knowing what I need to face with.

And I can’t stress this enough, I have made peace with the idea

If in any outcome or possibility, I know; I can adapt, accept and be okay with it. But not knowing is eating me up.

Recently a leader brought me into their organization to teach about performance, wellness, and resilience. I always share from my holistic perspective so a shoulder issue isn't just a posture or mobility issue.

Once we get the physical back in alignment I go into the mental and emotional components of shoulder pain. When I taught this concept I asked a simple question to all those who raised their hands with shoulder "issues". The room was stunned when they realized the correlation between these mental performance issues and shoulder issues.

Want to know what that question was? Comment below

If you’re going to take your health seriously, you have to take your gut health seriously.

Your gut isn’t just about digestion. It influences everything! If you’ve been chasing symptoms, it might be time to shift your focus inward. Start with the gut, and watch the ripple effect transform your mind and body.

To heal the gut is to heal the root.

It's time for #AllOfUs to realize the #WholeTruth.

Enormous amounts of our money gets funneled into warmongering (#FeedUsAtHomeFirst), courts/policing/jailing (#EndMassCriminalization), and so-called “education” and “training.” 

Do we all think that they’re so stupid and innocently unknowing that they don't have any clue what they're doing?

Are we that naive and stupid?

They know what they’re doing.

This is how it works and has always worked.

It's a giant sausage factory moneymaking machine.

The problem is that it's unsustainable and

a giant economic sinkhole and

more and more white people with some level of economic comfort are being sucked in and

also being stripped of their resources to feed the beastly machine and

so they're running out of literal "human resources."

That is the #RootCause.

That is the real actual problem and

we need to stop with all these little distracting messages that just serve to keep us stuck in the mass delusion around it all.
