One of my goals for 2010 is to schedule more rest and relaxation. Not because I’m lazy and looking for the easy way out but rather the opposite — I tend to work excessively.
Now, don’t get me wrong, being melancholy is great! But, if I didn’t have a sanguine wife to help balance my personality I’m not quite sure how I’d still have my sanity.
You see, melancholies are perfectionists. And, it’s in our nature to neglect rest. So, as we are trying to create our perfect worlds, if anything gets out of place, we spend an insane amount of time trying to reorganize it.
So, today I decided to stop and smell the roses.
Instead of writing a serious post on blogs, social media and content marketing, I thought just for fun I’d share with you five videos that went viral via YouTube.
And, if you’re curious, there’s no rhyme or reason for my selection. I simply chose them based off of my temporary semi-sanguineness. 
Truth be known, I’ve always been intrigued with what makes a video go viral. If I could figure out that mystery, I’d probably be a fairly wealthy man! 
Nevertheless, over time I’ve built an impressive compilation of viral videos within my Evernote library. Occasionally, I’ll scroll through that list for a good laugh and temporary break from my routine.
Today, after reviewing that list, I decided to feature the following five. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. And, if you have problems taking a break from work, use this opportunity to do so. I think you’ll be glad you did.
Have a great weekend!

Dr. Sullivan :: Glad you enjoyed one of my “less serious” posts. It’s a rarity for me to do but thought it was time to show a different side of who I am. Have a great weekend!
