Another cross-country business trip … and another opportunity to really dive into my iPod. What did I discover? That my playlist designed to make me relax really did the job.
The tracks ranged from a couple from my favorite album in high school to one track from last year. Bottom line: this is a great playlist for me.
Humbly submitted for your consideration: Relax. Please tell me what I need to add, and what you can’t believe is on the list!
