COT: Every person is different in terms of what they need for a “reset” or to “refill their tank”. For YHC growing up as an only child, it is alone time to get things done and relax. It’s important to figure out what that is for you and to make sure you prioritize it in your life – it will make you a better husband, father, and man.

COT:
– Shutdown ended last night, and I am thankful to be going back to work
– Over the last 40+ days, I allowed my daily routines to atrophy, let go of my one-meal-a-day diet, started grazing around the house, and struggled to maintain regular work hours and other structures
– I’ve gained 12 pounds and ready to build back some of those daily routines and structures.
