Seven Steps to Success ~~ Part One
Balance
I found a website that's chock full of gems geared toward personal fulfillment and success. The site? The Irresistible Success System
Webmaster Saleem Rana holds that "there are seven critical features necessary for even moderate success". I'd like to share them with you one day at a time and I think you'll agree that Rana's steps are integral to the personal success each of us craves. Actually, they're listed as spiritual ailments, and I think the reverse approach will have an interestingly positive effect.
One: Low physical energy
"In our modern day world of constant struggle to sustain ourselves economically, it is easy to let stress become predominant, and this in turn, will lead to compromising the immune system and creating illness, sometimes a fatal illness. Low physical energy comes from insufficient sleep, little or no quiet time of restfulness when awake, little or no physical exercise, and poor eating and digestion. When physical energy is low, sluggishness is prevalent and little is achieved. Unless this is healed, a person is heading toward ill health and low moods. Dysfunctional and addictive behavior, bitter losses, and personal crises arise from not having enough physical energy to fix things in our lives when they break down. We succumb before the smallest of obstacles." --Saleem Rana
So take care of yourself above all else. It's not so difficult and the payoff can be tremendous.

And I've sometimes heard it said that a simple lack of sleep is behind most people's problems.
It sure is. A concrete and frightening example is that people who drive without enough sleep are as dangerous as drunks behind the wheel.

Welcome. I couldn't agree with you more. (Well, I could, but that would be gushing.) Whenever I think I don't need to meditate, I do it anyway. As soon as I feel like I'm to busy to calm myself, it's time to calm myself.
