For the Love of Productivity We all crave productivity. We want it now and we want it all the time and we certainly want it for the long-term. We can’t imagine being without it, especially when we are after something – a college degree through a paper, a book, a speech, a website, or a [...]

You might have noticed that I love yoga. In fact, it is one of the few passions which I aspire to infuse into everyone because I truly believe that every human body can benefit enormously from yoga. You can certainly do additional great work on that body but infuse it with yoga. Yoga and yoga [...]
