5 Questions Segment
Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? Something achievable but a bit of a stretch. So for example, I get up at the same time each morning, 5:30 am. Then go for a swim in the ocean, for a run or to the gym.
Q2. What's your definition of Success? For me, a successful day is where I set my intentions (have intentions not expectations for the day) and along the way, experience joy. For me, that’s success and happiness.
Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? Experience joy each day.
Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? I wish I would have known that life is long and that life is short.
Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? We’ve got to stop the busy.
