SYSK Choice: How Your Biological Clock W...

About this episode

As admirable as it is to set a New Year’s resolution, the chances of sticking to it in the long term are slim. However, you can improve your odds of success. This episode begins with a strategy to help make life changes really stick. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/new-years-resolutionspsychology_us_5862d599e4b0d9a59459654c

Although you have heard of your biological clock, there is a good chance you don’t really understand how it all works. Dr. Emily Manoogian is a post-doctoral fellow at the Salk Institute (https://inside.salk.edu/fall-2018/emily-manoogian/) and is an expert in chronobiology which is the study of our internal clocks and how they impact our lives. Emily joins me to explain how these clocks work and how they keep you on schedule. Watch her TED talk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=20&v=SrBYSinpEtU&feature=emb_logo

If you live in a cold climate, you know that getting ice off your windshield in the morning can be a slow process. However, there is a fast, safe and effective way you might want to try. Listen as I explain what it is. http://www.travelandleisure.com/travel-tips/defrost-car-windshield

Some people like meetings but I suspect more people don’t than do. Why? Because meetings are often a big waste of time. David Grady is a writer and communications expert who created an interesting TED talk on how to save the world from bad meetings (https://bit.ly/37CnJxE). He joins me to explain how to get out of meetings you shouldn’t be in – and how to make the ones you do have to attend run more smoothly.
