Hello According to fictional spymaster Jason Bourne “Rest is a weapon” (in the books, unfortunately not the movies) because he never knew when he would get the next opportunity to rest and also that you need to be rested to operate at optimal capacity. Is December shut down the only time we rest, we try […]
Continue ReadingHello This month’s Newsletter retains the theme from last month’s reference to “The 4-hour work week”. Why put off until tomorrow something that can be eliminated completely?
