15. You don't analyze the data.
Maybe you DO track what you do, you eat, etc.

18. You think about work non-stop.
The clients. The emails. The meetings.

Hate to break it to you: you won't last.
Be PRESENT.

You've got 30 google chrome tabs open.
You call people while eating.
You check your phone 8 times per minute.
