Kennedy or Mother Teresa, or the Bible. And she notices the value in starting her day that way, rather than reading when exhausted at night.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m prone to learning faster that day because my mind has been exercised,&#8221; she said. &#8220;In the morning, your mind is blank like a piece of paper; it hasn&#8217;t gone through, for example, if somebody has yelled at you, if you didn&#8217;t get to an appointment on time, you got a flat tire or forgot to pay a bill. If you pick up a book at the end of the day, your mind has no room to add anything else in there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the morning, you can not only create a beautiful drawing in your mind; throughout the day you remember what you read and how you can apply it. That keeps you going all day long&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s part of her constant effort to embrace the Whole Person concept, or work-life balance, which not only helped her qualify for MDRT, but also revitalized her life and helped her embrace new people, places, foods and more. &#8220;Before I&#8217;d go home and think about all the reasons I couldn&#8217;t do something,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Now I&#8217;ll take a challenge in a heartbeat.
