Are You Headed for an Energy Crisis? Please tick the statements below that are true for you.
Body __ I don’t regularly get at least seven to eight hours of sleep, and I often wake up feeling tired.
__ I frequently skip breakfast, or I settle for something that isn’t nutritious.
__ I don’t work out enough (meaning cardiovascular training at least three times a week and strength training at least once a week).

Mind __ I have difficulty focusing on one thing at a time, and I am easily distracted during the day, especially by e-mail.
