    Excitable people: How do you sleep?

    MINDSET 
    I'll give working harder a shot. I haven't been working DIRECTLY before bed, either, so I'll give that a shot too. Thx.

    Excitable people: How do you sleep?

    MINDSET 
    Alcohol gets me to sleep pretty much 100% of the time without fail. But I always feel groggy in the AM and don't feel like working.

    Excitable people: How do you sleep?

    MINDSET 
    I think these particular examples would do the opposite for me. The way my brain is wired, problem-solving invigorates me, even if it's just math. Audiobooks have worked for me before, so long as they're purely fiction. Anything nonfiction reenergizes me and pumps me up to work.

    Excitable people: How do you sleep?

    MINDSET 
    My problem is I'm just easily excited by business... I'm always ITCHING to do the next thing, and as I lay down for bed, it's all I think about. Last night, for instance, instead of sleeping, I laid in bed for hours editing a promovideo in my head. I only got 4 hours of sleep. The night before...

    I own an amazon kindle, and they update the UI every so often.. make things bigger, change where things are and how you get to things... This is a tablet invented by AMAZON, one of the biggest companies on earth who can afford to hire the best damn UI artists on the planet. They keep refining...

    You are Rich and barely have to work -What do now with all the freetime?

    Basically, what I do is consider an apocalypse style situations, and what skillsets I'd need to survive. Even if it never happens, it's a nice theme to keep me doing things I'm interested in (learning stock exchange never entered my list) Things like: Gardening Beekeeping Archery Tailoring...

    Dealing with customers who don't wanna pay you

    PEOPLE 
    Remember this. At a certain point, you will want to be weak and break again. you will regret it. I ONLY accept 100% upfront payments and I don't feel bad about it... if they don't like it, I try to refer them to someone else.

    Would YOU buy it?

    No. Then why do you care if WE'D buy it? The way to make a hoodie like this successful, is to add 4-5 new features like this one you've already described. Essentially, go "back to the drawing board" and design the hoodie "the way it SHOULD have been designed". Your pocket idea (patent it...

    1 Easy Trick to Extend Your Life by 6 Years, GUARANTEED.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    This. 5 hours/night for me. If I sleep for 6-8, I'm groggy and don't want to wake up. If I sleep for 1-4, I'm cranky. If I sleep for 5 hours (6am-11am, typically) I practically jump out of bed, ready to enthusiastically start the day.

    What Are Your Most Painful Tasks Currently?

    I don't like how much my body needs SLEEP. If you could invent something that gets rid of the need for rest, I'd be all over that. Oh wait... Coffee. Nevermind

    ETHICS IN THE FASTLANE: How low will you sink for wealth?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    a topic I used to write a lot about is lucid dreaming. In lucid dreams, you are asleep, aware you're asleep, and have full control over the dream. This is good for practicing real-world scenarios while you sleep, or just goofing off and having fun. It's a REAL phenomenon and you CAN implement it...

    Hustle Discussion - What's Your Move?

    $100,000 is WAY too much for this question. Everything that's been mentioned so far can be done with like, $5k.

    Should I stay or should I go?

    MINDSET 
    What are you, this kid's mom? Sometimes you need to be in debt, disappointed, and miserable. You need to be hungry to appreciate a bowl of soup. You need to sleep outside to appreciate a warm bed. Life's not about avoiding pain. Pain is temporary. You can always bounce back.

    Concept To Funded Kickstarter in Less Than a Month. [Tabletop]

    HOT! 
    :-D. I think so. I'm really excited... I can't sleep... all I'm doing is thinking about my game and moving forward. 3 hours of sleep last night, legit. This isn't just a F*cking dream anymore, this is real RIGHT NOW. I can afford a 1K run of the base game and I'm moving forward with it as soon...

    How do you make 100$?

    Bingo baby. I hate the "with no special skill" stipulation. SPECIAL SKILLS are where the money's at. Special skills can never be taken away from you, and if you were to be stranded on the street naked and in debt and fearful for your life, your special skills will get your back where you were...

    6% of wealthy say what’s on their mind vs. 69% of poor

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    The more you talk, the less you do Something I shot last year... relevant. I hear it all the time, but maybe not in those exact words. On another note, in a book titled Multipliers, I read that personality-driven type-A ENTJs run less successful companies (while making a higher individual...

    My employers new stance on cell phones.....its YOUR responsibility

    Now I understand the problem. If the company REQUIRES use of specific software, that's an entirely different story. I would never get on-board with that.

    The Good Ones Are Quiet - How to shut up bad, loud customers?

    PEOPLE 
    Don't take them my email. People will feel pressured to say something nice and that pressure will act as a deterrent from doing anything at all. The more anonymous you can make it, the better.

    My employers new stance on cell phones.....its YOUR responsibility

    Total first world problem. Seems super reasonable to me. You're expected to get to work without a company providing you a driver. You're expected to wear clean clothes without the company providing dry-cleaning. You're similarly expected to provide a reliable communication method.
