The enjoying the silence part is the best thing about mornings.

As a fellow therapist, I completely agree with Dr. Seltzer. It seems like any person's "laziness" makes sense once you get to know them and what's going on in their lives. I've been looking for a way to put this into words for a while, so thanks for the quote.

You would not have survived before the internet. You had to use reading comprehension skills.

Not wanting to seem ungrateful for this article, but how could you not also mention the book 'Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder' by Nassim Nicholas Taleb?

Salma-what? I like to dip my bread in it. Have done so since I was a small child and have never contracted salmonella. Germ-a-phobe much?

Under the First, You Have to Show Up section, it might be good to include:

That would actually have been useful a little over 14 years ago!
