Loved @NeilPasricha and sharing his equation for happiness!
His advice and only pick one:
1. Brisk nature walk
2. The 20 minute replay
3. Read 20 pages of fiction.#WFSVision19 pic.twitter.com/gNNuQUEBBO— Denise Broady (@dvubroady) May 7, 2019

Honoured that @NeilPasricha was so moved by the @CentennialEDU spirit that he donated to our scholarship fund. You’ve made me so happy (but I’ll do the brisk nature walk, and read 20 pages of a book to stay that way) Thank you for an inspired talk!
