Welcome back to another Optymyze plus one. In our last plus one we talked about the importance of identifying and installing your your number one self care habit. Today I want to talk about another super important thing. Identifying your significant other's or kids or friends or colleagues. Number one self care habit. Fact is, great relationships are only created by two healthy people. One plus one. If you want to optimize the love in your life, you'd be wise to a start by optimizing yourself and b supporting your partner, assuming they want the support to optimize their lives. And our number one self care habit is a really like jumbo, really good place to start. For example, my number one is sleep. Alexandra knows this and she knows that she doesn't really want to be around me when I'm not meeting this fundamental need. So we prioritize this to make sure I'm getting good sleep. The thank you again darling. Alexandra's number one self care habit is time alone every day to meditate, reflect, create, etc. Knowing this, we prioritize it and make sure she gets that time. So what's your number one and what's your partner's number one? Find out, help them rock it and watch your relationship flourish. Plus one that one. Plus one. Isn't it a bit odd that we went from math to science to history but somehow missed the class on how to live? For some wacky reason, optimal living 101 never made the schedule. Of course it's too late to go back and change that and you're too busy to read full time to catch up. But if you're like us, you're all about optimizing your life and actualizing your potential. So imagine this. Imagine having someone read the best books on how to optimize your life and pull out the big ideas that can really change your life. You know those sections? You underline an asterisk and mark all up. Then imagine that guy me connecting those awesome ideas to other great books and helping you actually apply the wisdom to to your life today. Well, that's what I do with something we call Philosopher's notes where I've distilled hundreds of great books into 20 minute super practical summaries. Then imagine me taking the absolute best big ideas from those great books and sharing them with you in hour long Optimal Living 101 classes on everything from productivity, purpose and confidence to. To nutrition, goal setting and conquering procrastination. Helping you optimize every facet of your life so you can actualize your potential. You've got a personal trainer? I'm kind of like your personal philosopher. Ancient wisdom plus modern science plus practical tools. That's what our optimized membership program is all about. If you're feeling it, we'd love to have you join us.
