I now recognize I was practicing mindfulness, although I had no idea at the time.

For many people, today is the first day back at work after eating too many holiday cookies, watching "Elf" 14 times and hustling the kids back to school (whether they wanted to go or not because your sanity depended on it).

You might decide that a) you're on track and content b) unhappy and need to make a change or c) floating somewhere in between because you can't really decide what to decide.

He said, rather informed, that: There are way easier places to work, but nobody ever changed the world on 40 hours a week.
