1. Phenomenal resource I recommend… I’ve been following author and entrepreneur Brian Johnson for almost two decades. He created Philosopher’s Notes, where he has taken more than 700 of the top self-improvement books and created quick summaries. He does a phenomenal job… and gives you the options to read the summary, listen to an audio…
1. Incredible feat we watched this week… Netflix aired its live coverage of Skyscraper Live, which documented the climbing of the Taipei 101 skyscraper in Taiwan, a 1,667-foot building, by free solo climber Alex Honnold. A few things that made this event extraordinary… Honnold did not use any ropes or safety harnesses, no one has…
1. Cartoon I saw this week… I saw a cartoon this week that caught my attention. Like a lot of good cartoons, at first, they make you chuckle… then, they make you think. This cartoon is simple, well done, and unfortunately, pretty spot on. I know most people feel that the medical system is too…
1. Great sign we saw this week… When we have bloodwork done, it is usually through Quest Labs. They have locations everywhere, but we use the labs in Twinsburg (on Edison Blvd.) or in Aurora (at UH in front of Heinen’s). When it comes to any healthcare encounter, the healthcare provider plays a huge role…
1. New fun gadget we’ve been using… For Christmas, the kids got us the Ninja CREAMi ice cream maker. It has been awesome. It can make ice cream, milkshakes, sorbet, and more. The one they got us (called the CREAMi Swirl) has a soft serve option. Lana has made several types of ice cream so…
1. Happy New Year… I want to wish you all a very happy, healthy, and prosperous 2026. A new year allows for a clean slate, a time to reflect on the past twelve months, set some new goals, and strive for a better version of you. I value your trust and promise to do my…
1. Great podcast I listened to this week… One of my most recommended books is Atomic Habits, by James Clear. I heard Clear on a podcast this week, and he was great. The information was super practical… and timely. Establishing new habits is the KEY to getting the results you really want in your life,…
1. Amusing image I came across this week… I’ve posted this before, but I came across it while scrolling through my phone this week, and it made me laugh (it does every time I see it). So, I thought I would share it again… hoping it makes you laugh… 2. Great interview I saw this…
1. Concerning post I saw this week… We all know by now that microplastics are a MAJOR concern. I’ve posted about it before. But this week, I became aware of two things after reading the latest stats… (1.) The problem is worse than I thought… and (2.) The rates are increasing much faster than I…
1. Great video clip I saw this week… I saw a clip of a guy, Adam Allred, explaining health and healthcare in a quick, 2.5-minute clip that pretty much sums it up quite well. It’s not new info, it’s something you’ve heard me say many times, and you already know the info. But to hear…
