Hey, Mindful Tribe, how many of you are into Hollywood? How many of you are into painting? How many of you just love to read a terrific book? Well, I have the guy right here. He's an author.

I am always in mindfulness mode, Bruce. Thanks for asking. That's good. Greg Coplo is a poet. He's an

artist and he's an accredited life coach as well. He's a four-time American Art Award winner and a graduate of UCLA in

theater arts. And his work in Hollywood has spanned two decades. And man, he had some fascinating

jobs. You'll read about them in his terrific book. And he is now involved in something called Paint Night. And he's a very accomplished

artist. And he's an avid believer in living in the present moment. So that's what brings Gregory

right here to mindfulness mode because, well, Gregory is a very mindful kind of guy. And you'll find that out when you read his book as well.
