I am more of a Just-Do-It-Now person if compared to hubby who is totally different from me. He is a procrastinator.

If a pimple pops up, I want it to be lost in a day. If possible, in a few hours. This explains why there are acne treatment creams or acne patches available in the house at all time.

I know this just-do-it-now attitude has its drawback too. I tend to be more stressful as I want things to be done fast, now or at once. If things are not completed in time, I will blow out.

Stress, long working hours, and meeting the needs of a demanding family can wreck havoc on my physical and emotional well-being, therefore I set aside at least 15 minutes each day for relaxation to recharge.

Besides meditation, I love to listen to music or take up a therapy like visualization or positive thinking.
