"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Today I started studying sleeping in my psychology class and it got me thinking alot about sleep and how much time it takes up from our lives that could be used doing more productive things. We've always been told to get atleast 8 hours of sleep a night for optimum performance in our daily activities. However, I think there are ways that we can get much less sleep without the effects of loss of concentration and memory that we've all been taught will happen if we don't get enough sleep.
I am very jealous of people that can get a few hours a night and be fine. Donald Trump gets four hours of sleep a night and if you watched howard stern last night you heard Trump admit it. Napoleon used to get 5 hours of sleep, and used to say "six hours of sleep for a man, seven for a woman, and eight for a fool." For me personally, if i get less than six im a total zombie and don't want to do anything but take a nap.
I just read some information on the Uberman sleep schedule, which requires 6 30 minutes naps spread out every four hours. While my job and going to school full-time prevent me from even attempting this, the manipulation of sleep cycles (REM) got me thinking that there HAS to be a way to be able to get a few hours of sleep per night and feel fine. Im not sure what Trump does, but whatever he does it works and works well.

If anyone has any further information on this I'd appreciate it because all my text book does is preach getting "enough" sleep.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

MY reality
I don't know. I can never really function 100% unless I get more than 7 hours of sleep a night. It kinda sucks.

I think being regular too helps. going to bed at the same time and getting up at the same time helps.

I do about 7 hours a night. And maybe an extra hour or two on the week-ends.

Hm.. I think it's all about getting used to it. I sleep or I used to sleep about 4-5 hours a day. They say it'll affect your life big time. I still sleep about 6 hours and I'm 41. Maybe I'll die when I'm 45. But hey, I feel healthy! :D

The secret is... get used to it. You're lazy.

I just realized, a lot of successful people are almost always the guys that go against the extreme.

I just asked my son "is it ok to sleep for only 4 or so hours?"

My son's response? A big wide eye and ".. dad... what do you do when we're all sleeping?"
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Why would you want to limit your sleep? My idea of a success is someone who can sleep 8-10 hours per night without worrying about it. Why does Trump only sleep 4 hours when there's absolutely no reason for him to work at all? Oh, that's right, he's caught up in the matrix.

Do not cut into your sleep time. It is uber-valuable.
