    Sleep just 2 hours a day...Uberman Sleep Cycle

    MINDSET 
    I'm with you splok, pondering eliminating sleep is like searching for the fountain of youth. I would happily give up the need for sleep! Gaining 6-8 hours a day to accomplish stuff. It works out to be around ~2 extra (24hr) days a week! Fun with math time, 2 extra days a week = 104 extra days...

    Sleep just 2 hours a day...Uberman Sleep Cycle

    MINDSET 
    I was thinking about a previous post on sleep cycles and thought it would make a good discusion thread. I'm wondering if anyone has tried the Uberman Sleep Cycle? Very aggressive: 2hrs total sleep per day, six 20-25min naps evenly spaced throughout the day... Some background: Sleep Methods...

    Are Taxes Part Of Your Charitable Donations...

    TAXES | REGS 
    Funny you use the word "tithe" I was just checking the definition and it ends with "compulsory tax to government" tithe (pron.: /ˈtaɪð/; from Old English: teogoþa "tenth") is a one-tenth part of something, paid as a contribution to a religious organization or compulsory tax to government.

    TAXES | REGS 
    Well said, we try to keep our taxes as low as possible. But I wonder as taxes continue to increase will people be forced to donate less to keep thier budgets balanced. As tax rates head up to 40%-60% of your income what will it do to small charities that survive on donations.. It seems people...

    My wife and I were going through our budget and discussing what % we give to charity and we started talking about the fact that a large part of our income taxes (state and Fed) go towards charitable needs. (Everything from Sandy relief, third world countries, veterans, art programs...

    I have a recent LOA experience that worked very well: The LOA story: I have really wanted a small metal working lathe for my garage so I can make prototypes and tinker a bit. So I was really thinking about it, I cleaned out the garage and choose a spot in the garage for it. Then I really...

    Need your opinion on my new website

    The concept seems good, but you need to create a security about sending a prized possession or an expensive item to a unknown firm. Warranty, Guarantee, "an estimate and quote will be sent back before any work is done on your prized watch". Before and after photo's of past work... For the...

    Yes 'Karmic Understanding' is good, after posting I was thinking 'appreciation of others' is key to add. Along with 'Willpower', 'Love of Learning' and 'Emotional Control' or 'Emotional Intelligence'...

    Why mornings are so important to productivity

    MINDSET 
    I would agree whole heartedly that the morning sets the whole day. I was never a morning person myself. Always happy to work until 2-3 in the morning and then sleep in. Then I had kids, they don't agree with sleeping past 7:00. (Why would they, they go to bed with a nice story, asleep by 7:30...
