Ann-Christin,

Enjoy your time at the beach! I have taken a blog break and I spent a couple of days at a friend's summer house on the west coast.

Thanks, Martin! I really shouldn't complain when I'm this close to the ocean, should I? Scandinavia is lovely in summer. Enjoy your days of rest and relaxation.

I feel your pain. I'm having the hottest indoor summer in many, many years here in Ohio, where it's HUMID. This last week is like the others, with inside temps of: 88, 86, 86, 86, 86, 85, and 86 degrees F. The thermostat pegs at 88, so if it's above that I won't know. I like it best between 80 & 84, with 82 being my favorite sleeping temp. It tires me out, and sometimes causes headaches late in the day. My Kitty LOVES it, though.

Oh, I feel for you -- humidity really does drain your energy. I hope some cool, dry breezes blow through town soon.

Nice article Ann and great analogy,

There's a saying that "It's all relative." It rings true in life and in business. Only through communication can we understand someone elses baseline and reference point to know how they are feeling and where to start. Stay cool!

Thanks, Yoni! Great comment. You're right -- communication is key.
