Running yourself ragged and then bragging about it is not impressive. What is the reward? Is that how you want attention? It just says you can not handle the load. Lord Chesterfield said, "Whoever is in a hurry shows that the thing he is about is too big for him." OUCHY! Proper rest and pacing is part of your sleep and rest hygiene. Cut back on something in order for you to have the rest and timing that you need.

We all have someone who inspires us to action. The ones who should inspire us to healthy action are the people we Love. My daughter and grandson inspire me to healthy action because I want to be around (in a healthy body) to interact with them as long as I can. In other words, I do not want to be planted in a chair just watching their Life from the sidelines. Identify those who 'truly truly' inspire you to physical action and then get busy physically acting on that inspiration.

Rolling your clothes is the most efficient way to use space in your drawers or in a suitcase. Fold your clothes and then the last step roll them so they look like a tube. Get more in a drawer or suitcase and they stay nicely pressed. I travel very light and do not check luggage. All I need is a small suitcase on wheels and my computer back-pack that has 2 computers in it and I'm movin' and groovin'. Roll your clothes folks, so you can travel light, fast and with wheels.

Reward cards can really rack up points with stores or services that you use most often. Travel rewards, especially hotels, is where I usually rack up the most points. I'm on the road more than I let on, so fairly often I'm enjoying a free nights stay somewhere. Whatever you use the most, sign up for their rewards program.

Synchronize all of your clocks to the same real time. Not 10 or 15 minutes early because you are just kidding yourself. Here is a link to the real time in your neck of the woods. If you want to be on top of your game, then know what you are dealing with at the start of the day, beginning with the Truth.

This is one of my favorite cooking pages because it makes me feel smarter about cooking, like I actually know what I'm doing, then I want to do it more. You are more likely to eat healthy if you prepare your food yourself, than you would if you it were prepared for you. Plus when I watch a cooking show I have a better understanding when they use words like 'blanching' or 'braising'. I like feeling smarter, don't you?
