Ever since a teenager I felt my heart was running a little faster than usual. I started smoking and drinking (beer) at around 15. Now I am 37, three kids and Living in China. 150/110 , high blood pressure, hypertension and stressed. I have been fighting my stress but it’s hard when you have three kids and problems at work.
I am now finding myself with less sleeping time than before, and I think that is the key. Sleeping is the best medicine, I am trying to become a normal person once again, one without BlackBerry, eMAILS, No TV in my bedroom, Learning Mandarin (I live in China) and all these gadgets that make us more “communicados” . At the end we lose our biological rhythmn and our health. I said once to some friends just joking about this and I could not believe their reactions, Not having a Mobile phone is like being a criminal, an antisocial.
If tomorrow I decided not to use a mobile phone anymore I think most of my friends and family will think I’m weird or crazy. This is our time, communication Era, when being available 24/7 is a must, and when you get sick nobody will be in bed for me. so i am trying to turn my phone of at night and if there is something important coming up I try to make a good schedule and ask my overseas customers to understand that I am on the other side of the world and if they are working at 10 am it means it’s 10 pm for me.
