Have you ever had the feeling that you donât fit in with your own life? That what used to work is just not working anymore? Or maybe that what you thought would work at some point down the line hasnât looked all that promising for what feels like a pretty long time.
Survival of the Fittest
From
Getting to G.R.E.A.T. âA great life depends on a great fit between who we are and the environments in which we work and live.â Itâs been that way since the beginning of time âenvironmental fitness â exactly what survival of the fittest is all about.

Good luck with that. The average person has already tried 13 different methods to get a grip on the tyranny of time, and this is not new. Calendars were invented about 5000 years ago to help us track the annual flooding of the Nile because life and agriculture depended on knowing when the floods would begin.

And neither is mind wandering all over the place for the fun of it. Both are energy sucks. And energy is time, because in a clear and focused state of high energy we get more done. And we get it done right, so we donât have to waste time doing it all over again.
