Thoughts on Dr. Raul Cuero

I think Dr. Cuero is a very interesting man. He is definitely a good role model and a person that anyone can look up to because he is so well-rounded in his "living smart" lifestyle. He is a microbiologist and inventor, so not only is he smart, but he is also very creative.

Cuero mentions that to live smart one must find satisfaction in one's mental, physical, and spiritual development. I believe this piece of information is important to live by; if a person keeps aiming for great development, then when she/he gets there, she/he will have lived a extraordinary life. In my life, I will assess my progress on a mental, physical, and spiritual level to live happier and healthier. More specifically, I will try to be more intense (as he mention in the interview) with my development mentally, as a student in the classroom, and physically, with working out and my health goals.

I will also take Dr. Cuero's advice and use my phone, computer, and TV less and be outside with nature more often. I agree with his point that the lack of nature and human interaction crushes creative potential; it could not be any more true than with my sister. She is not the most creative or intelligent person and all she does is play on her phone and watch TV. I, personally, am always striving to be greater, so if that means enjoying the nice Tampa weather more often, I will definitely not marathon shows on Netflix all day.

As a biology major, I think Dr. Cuero is an amazing person to learn from because he is so successful and well-rounded. I will certainly take his wise advice and apply it to my everyday life.
