The human being is the only animal that decides to sacrifice its hours of sleep. Different factors can influence its lack. We all know that stress, work, and responsibilities usually play a considerable role, but we must comprehend that this has consequences in the short and long term. Today Dr. Kirk Parsley will give us a masterclass. He will explain the importance, consequences, and benefits that sleep brings to our lives. Incredibly, some humans cannot do natural things such as rest. That's one of the reasons we dived into this subject deeper, not only to find answers but also to figure out how to improve our life by applying just a few extra hours of rest into our routines. Take notes! The fountain of youth is a dream away from you. ABOUT KIRK PARSLEY Dr. Kirk Parsley served as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One from June 2009 to January 2013. While there, he led the development and supervised the group's first Sports Medicine Rehabilitation center. He is a former SEAL, and received his Medical Degree from Bethesda, Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences (USUHS) in 2004. He interned in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Balboa Naval Hospital San Diego in 2005 and subsequently completed a Navy residency in Hyperbarics and Diving Medicine in 2006. His philosophy for wellness is simple; in order to optimize our health and get the most out of our bodies and minds, we must live more closely to the way. We evolved as a species. He believes that many diseases and disorders that we accept as “inevitable” in modern society are unnecessary complications of poor sleeping habits, living in a toxic environment, eating foods we were not designed to digest, and allowing stress to overwhelm us. His passion is to help his patients and clients achieve the highest quality of life possible, and realize their health, performance, and longevity goals.

Macs sometimes have Airdrop but it's not always convenient so check out SnapDrop.net. All you do is open it up on your browser and you'll see this in the middle of your computer that says Coral Pipe (maybe your says something else), and what will happen is, if I go to another device around me like my phone for example, and go to SnapDrop.net it will now see through the internet connection the other computer. If I drop a picture or file through there, it will move it to the other device seamlessly.Kirk: The one thing I think that has been the most productive for me this year is the book called The 12 Week Year by Brian P. Moran. It is so good, it helped me basically take a full year's worth of productivity and jamming into one quarter. I got all my year goals accomplished this year in the first quarter, it was amazing and I'm still shocked that I was able to do that.

In this episode, listeners can look forward to hearing from Kirk Mango, a champion athlete, and coach who also happens to be Chris’s father-in-law. Kirk was a Division 1 gymnast, a two-time college All-American, two-time Northern Illinois University Hall of Fame member, and he still holds the Northern Illinois record for the highest score on the still rings. In addition, he was the head coach of three Elite Eight gymnastics teams, was awarded the Illinois Coach of the Year in 1992 for gymnastics, and has coached athletes who received All-American Hall of Fame and All-American team awards. Kirk has been a guest speaker on the radio, news television shows, sports podcasts, and at schools, where he encourages children to become champions from the inside out. His book, Becoming a True Champion: Achieving Athletic Excellence from the Inside Out, features endorsements from people like Nadia Comaneci and Steve Weatherford. After 34 years of teaching, Kirk recently retired and, together with his wife of 36 years, raised two children who are also Division 1 athletes. Kirk talks to Chris about how he developed a champion mentality despite adversity and before he had seen any results and explains that winning is not a necessity, even though it can be a by-product of this mindset. It is not the outcome but the process that develops the resilience and grit necessary to be truly successful at anything. The two also get into the importance of taking personal responsibility, practicing what you preach, and teaching children that they are in control of their futures. Key Points From This Episode:How the champion mentality is part of Kirk’s identity and woven into every part of his life. The pivotal moment when Kirk was inspired by the outstanding skills of another gymnast. Kirk talks about getting into the sport much later than most other star gymnasts.How he started cultivating a champion mentality and identity before he had any results. Understanding that truly successful people focus more on the process than the outcome. The risk of focusing too heavily on winning: you become greedy and want it at all costs. How Kirk overcame the obstacle of being physically smaller than his peers in high school. Facing adversity and distinguishing between the things that you can and cannot change. The choice you have whenever you are confronted with other people’s negative opinions. Advice for making big decisions and taking personal responsibility for your circumstances. Examples of the kind of practices a person can implement to grow as a person. Chris talks about Kirk’s mindset of being your best at whatever you do, even in retirement.
