So much of what makes a good leader and a successful advisor is dedicating time to improving yourself in order to better serve the needs of your team, your family, and yourself. As I like to say, the happier you are, the more effective you’ll be to everyone.

The FastDiet – The pattern for this diet is often known as the 5:2 diet – you eat normally for five days of the week and cut your calories to about 25 percent of your normal intake on two nonconsecutive days of the week. I’ve been following this diet for almost two years now, and I’ve noticed a drastic improvement to my overall health. Not only does it teach you healthy eating, but it helps develop healthier habits that lead to long-term vitality.
