Sleep is the foundation for great performance.  Dr Craig talks about several sleep facts that may interest you and, most importantly will demonstrate just how valuable sleep is for our overall health.

It seems we live in a world that is obsessed with taking shortcuts.  Dr Craig discusses shortcuts and how in most instances they won't get you long term success

Finally, after wanting to do Q&A and getting requests to do Q&A, here is the first edition.  We will do this once every week, so please send in your questions, and they will be answered.  You can even record them, and we can put this recording on the episode.  This week's questions are about the best technology for monitoring sleep and the best activity trackers on the market.  These are only my opinions and they are what I presently use.

I discuss some products in this episode, and here are the links.

In this episode, Dr Craig talks about "annoying" people and how it is best to change our view.  We are all unique, and let's view others from this perspective rather than judging them and sentencing them to the "annoying" person category.

How often are you somewhere but not really there? You are listening but not really hearing? Your mind is focused or consumed with work, but you're not at work.  Listen to Dr Craig discuss this problem and how important it is for us to be present and show up when our friends and family need us.

We all have those days that don't go according to plan.  The days where we don't feel motivated to get things done.  The days where we see everything through "doom & gloom" glasses.  One tact I have found that helps me is to STOP and look around, REFLECT on the wonderful things that I can see & APPRECIATE what I have in my view.  This act of gratitude will help you and may help you get out of a dark mood.  It's important to accept these moods but try this little gratitude practice, and I hope it helps.
