High energy habits The busy person's guide to more energy : (without diets or exercise)

"We pick up a lot of drag in our lives," notes Ford, an executive coach, likening it to barnacles accumulating on a ship's hull. Eventually, these teeny burdens weigh us down, but by setting and achieving lots of little goals, readers can develop the titular high-energy habits. While no single idea here is remarkable or startling, many discreet notions are cohesively melded into this effective and clear method. "You probably only have one life," Ford wryly observes, "make it the one you want." Personal success stories and a buoyant tone will help motivate readers, and there is plenty of material with which to grow. Results-based chapters feature titles like "Clear the Clutter" and "Get Rid of the Little Things That Annoy You." Logical, healthy, and reasonable, this will work with Walter C. Willett and P.J. Skerrett's Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy: The Harvard Medical School Guide to Healthy Eating to assure body and soul security. Recommended. (c) Copyright 2010.
