(I meant to do dishes? And they're done? And I didn't do them? What else did I do unconsciously while I was thinking I needed to do it? Anything? Wait, what?)

But there are plenty of reasons I...

Several years ago I was searching for direction in my life and decided to invest in a personal coach. I discussed my job dissatisfaction with her and she gave me a tip that had an immediate effect on my life. She asked if I took advantage of the 15 minute breaks offered by my company. I didn’t so...
