Most people can imagine their ideal day, but what would it take to make your perfect day – or parts of it – come to life? Jason W. Womack, an executive coach and workplace performance trainer, tells you how to change your habits and make your ideal day a reality.

Summary

The Best Day Ever

    Nice tips. The most important to me is the feedback, which if sincerly received from a trusted one/friend/relative, and then considered with an open mind and acted upon, gives maximum benefits. Reviewing one's life styles and habits periodically, is essential to know how the life is going and where it should go.
