In an otherwise banal article on tips for falling asleep, Web Worker Daily just shared some research about the rise in insomnia in the US ( [link] ) and I have little doubt that, apart from medical reasons, a lot of this comes from people who aren't being courageous enough to really take care of their life and concentrate on important things.

You're accomplishing herculean tasks few women ever think of attempting. But the one and only thing that helps me keep my cool ALL THE TIME is medication. Not "make me stupid" medication, just "make me calm" medication. Would you like to be one of these women? COULD you be one of these women?

The metro and public buses are so convenient (plus medical bills are cheap) so it might work to be both frugal and be accessible. I encourage the spending debate for entrepreneurs (internally and externally) to be about why to spend, what it accomplishes, how it simplifies, what's the return, etc.

She always sounds flat, depressed, almost medicated. But secondly, I've been feeling like my career isn't going anywhere and that my work isn't accomplishing anything.

How much greater good would that have accomplished? Health insurance is crucial for me because I have a pre-existing medical condition. I've been determined to be medically ineligible for health insurance by two different major insurance companies! 10 an hour in Washington, D.C. and no benefits? I don't think so.

I don't want to sound like a naysayer to a medical condition, but these sound pretty minor and correctable though meditation. As a side, all of your commenters who somehow think they have medical/psychiatric degrees and tell you they don't think you have Aspergers have obviously never experienced this syndrome first hand.

Winning is usually accomplished by placing the ball where your opponent isn't located: either you put the ball there yourself or you pass your team-mate so they can put the ball there. She has had good coaches, and clearly she listens to advice. Writing is definitely a skill that can be learned, but it requires tons of practice.

This is not a medical journal. They need additional, neglected skills in management and leadership and business in order to advance in their careers. The great mentors teach how to work more efficiently so you accomplish more than you peers/competitors. But I love the article so much, that I want you to know all of them.

I just know that ideas overwhelm me sometimes, and until I go to a doctor to get medication to calm my head down, I’m not convinced I need more interestingness in my life than my already-spinning head. Or maybe I am doing them both at the same time? I don’t know.

Looking back I realize it was the one thing in my life that I could control, accomplish something, make progress, etc. Learning the skill of compromising after you've been making all decisions solo for a while (and/or if you have leadership inclinations) is not for sissies. I think it saved me from a total downward spiral!

Every family have them: in-laws, sisters with nothing to do but worry about everyone else, parents, grandparents, weed-smoking crazy aunts or cousins, tragic cases of depression, alcoholism and a whole lot of medical terms. So you can be sure that you are not alone. A toast to us all.

But maybe that's because I'm being medicated for depression right now. This allows them to accomplish a lot while putting things in perspective and maintaining a positive outlook about the grind along the way. I like the honesty of your writing. Messy, truthful, not-redeemed-once-and-for-all, but hopeful.

Or just continue to pity them all, no matter how much they accomplish in life? Clearly women look for leadership in how to conduct their lives. We're not abnormal, we had a vision and we set out to accomplish it. It's actually healthy, you visualize it and with that maybe move a step closer to accomplishing it.

Here's my stance on happiness and choices: For as long as I can remember, everyone in my life has been telling me that I am wonderful and that I can do and accomplish absolutely anything I want in life. Their cups seemed to always overflow and I marveled at their accomplishments. Gen Y, sound familiar?).

But when watching TV or in a darkened movie theater, intimacy is so much simpler to accomplish. I'm especially concerned about identity theft and medical records being compromised. The intimacy of reading is overrated. It's very difficult to be intimate with somebody else when you're along. Your privacy is overrated.

There is nothing in your career or personal life that is so important that it has to be accomplished by a text in the middle of traffic. still dealing with the medical bills. I like you and your blog. But your ego is making a choice for you that is wrong. If you think otherwise, you are wrong, wrong, wrong. put down the damned phone.
