1. Best stretch for the midback… Check out this stretch (my favorite stretch) that is ideal for today’s lifestyle… The fitness balls are sold at my office, or you can click here for the Amazon link if you are interested in getting one. 2. Interesting lesson I learned this week… I heard billionaire investor, Ray…
1. Movie I watched this week… There’s a new movie out called Thirteen Lives. We watched it… and loved it. Things that prompted my interest… it’s based on true events, it is directed by Ron Howard, it’s a survival story, and it has a few actors that I recognized and like. All I can say…
1. Uplifting patient encounter I had this week… I have a patient that I had not seen in a few years, as she had moved out of state. I won’t give you all the details, but simply put, she was struggling with a recurrence of cancer that was deemed incurable. The doctors told her chemotherapy…
1. Cool thing I learned about this week… There is a tree, called the rainbow tree, a.k.a. rainbow eucalyptus (Eucalyptus deglupta), that will amaze you. I’m not sure how I’ve never seen it before, or heard of it, but you have to see it to believe it. I’m posting a pic of one below, but…
1. Article I read this week… I read a great article this week, realizing about halfway through that the author, Oliver Burkeman, was the author of the excellent book, Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management For Mortals. The article was in The Guardian and is titled… Oliver Burkeman’s last column: the eight secrets to a (fairly) fulfilled…
1. Video I watched and book I’m listening to… I’m about halfway through a book titled Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don’t Know, by Adam Grant (Thank you, Robin P.!). I wanted to share a bit about it, and found this very well-done video on YouTube summarizing the book. At a time…
1. T-shirt I love… I saw this t-shirt last week and loved it. It’s from a restaurant/bar in Clearwater Beach, Florida (Palm Pavilion). I love the colors, love the image (beachside shack, palm trees, surf boards, sailboat, Adirondack chair, etc.), and LOVE the quote… “It’s never too late to start Living the Dream.” (Thanks, Jim…
1. Cool video footage I re-watched this week… I am a fan of drones,… and I am a fan of fireworks. So, the two together is a definite hit. My brother had sent this video a few years ago (thanks, Greg!), and I re-watched it this week. It is a drone flying through a huge…
1. Something cool I saw last weekend… While pulling into a large shopping plaza last weekend I heard, and then saw, two gentlemen playing music in an open corner in the parking lot. The one was playing the violin, the other playing a keyboard. There was a large speaker projecting the music loud enough that…
1. Wording I’m working on this week… I have read about it before (and you likely have also), but this week I read it again. We know words are VERY powerful. Simply using the words “I get to” instead of “I have to” can have a profound effect on your attitude, enthusiasm, and outcomes. After…
