Performance apparel is the latest trend but not everyone understands it. When speaking of performance we are referring to clothing being fade resistant, wrinkle free, stain resistant and moisture wicking.
Watch this video and learn what it all means.

Every now and then I am asked what new and exciting executive toy I have that will be kept on a desk, used and played with. Here is an item that fits the bill. I was not in love with the item at first but it has grown on me. I am seeing it more and more, something different and new and it seems to be getting a lot of attention. Let me know wat you think.

The Worry Chair
One common conditioning technique used by counselors is the “worry chair” strategy. It is especially useful for those who have trouble falling asleep because they are ruminating about their day. You can use it at home or work, but we will use the example of someone with insomnia to demonstrate the process.
1. Set up a specific chair in your house that is designated as the worry chair.
2. If you are worrying about things and unable to sleep for more than 10 minutes, get out of
your bed and go sit in the worry chair.
3. Allow yourself to worry all you want when you are in the chair. Take each worry to its conclusion before you move to the next worry.
4. Stay there as long as you need to (until you are done worrying).
5. Return to bed.
6. If you start worrying again then go to your chair and repeat the process. Do not allow yourself to worry in any other spot in the house (or office if you do the process there).
7. You can add journaling to your worry time if that is helpful for you.
While this technique may be strange, it is a method for you to condition your worry to that chair instead of your bed, office chair or anywhere else. It puts you in control of the worry rather than having the worry control you. Lack of sleep will kill your focus so don’t allow it to go on too long.

In keeping up with eco-technology here is a bag that fits the bill. This messenger bag fits most laptops up to 15.4″ and features a solar panel to keep you iPhone, iPod, Blackberry and smart phones fully charged. Exterior pockets provide accessory storage and adjustable waist belt provides stability. I would like to hear from those of you out there that use solar items if you are happy with these type of products and find that they really save you time, money and aggravation.
