And one of the highlights is an old man saying the secret to a long life is to "do what you...
I'm not at my best this morning. Not at my worst either but closer to that end of the scale. My mood is off, motivation is minimal, energy is low. There are several causes, and none at all, for my malaise. I've travelled a lot for work recently, doing very different things, and that has sapped my mental energy.
