At 11:00 – Craig explains how to deal with having no control over the structure of your day, and what to do when your magic time is interrupted. At 13:00 – There's an important distinction between what some people consider the perfect day and what Craig is actually talking about; is it walking on the beach on vacation? Not according to Craig.
