Devora Krasnianski speaks with Rivka Caroline, M.Sc, about creating systems to help clear our minds from having to remember to do things and having to make decisions. Systems can also help us save time so we can do the things that we really want to do. We also spoke about better self-talk, about ways we can change our negative ruminations so that we can have the serenity and sanity we so need to live happy and interesting lives. Throughout, we shared so many golden tidbits.
