I recently discovered Kyra Parsi and power read all of her books. In fact, I'm rereading Half Hearted now.

I'm not sure they defined what an official act is yet. So I assume that will be challenged by Trump in the lower courts and make it's way up to the scouts. And based on this season's decisions, I would assume they find in favor of Trump.

Anything by Supertramp or Bad Company.

In years past, your comment might sound like hyperbole. But not so these days: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/the-wa-gop-put-it-in-writing-that-theyre-not-into-democracy/

I am not on the spectrum (I follow the community because I have 2 kids on the spectrum). I did, however, go to high school and also thought I was smarter than everyone else. I was probably smarter than some people. But as I've grown up, my perspective has shifted: (1) smarts are genetic, like being pretty, and both are like winning the genetic lottery. In contrast, people who work hard have earned it. (2) Being academically gifted does not always translate into success later in life. EQ, hard work and luck also play into it. Anywho, I thought I would pass that along because I'm not so sure you are a narcissist, but maybe just haven't had as much experience. Best of luck to you!

Oh yeah! He would be an excellent choice (if not this cycle, maybe in the future).

Oh, thanks for the clarification.

I'm one of those weirdos that likes to work (like I would still work 12 hour days if I won the lottery), even if I wouldn't expect others to do the same. So this type of article is relatable. Didn't mean to imply that others needed to work this way.

Are you recommending I put poison in my mouth?

I mean, it says "people would work as much as 130 hours in a week, including an all-nighter", so I don't read it as being consistent, nor always her. And the all-nighter was singular.

Edit: forgot to mention that this article is objecting to her formula for success, not her claims about working that many hour as being impossible.

That like 5 hours per night with 20 min to shower/get ready. Not great, but it can be done by taking meetings during your commute into work, having food delivered and eating/working at the same time. I assume that lady didn't have kids during her time at Google (when she was working those hours).

Edit: Marissa Mayer did not have kids during her time at Google. She had her first after she'd moved to Yahoo. There are no mentions of her hours there, so I assume they were less (not as fun to put into the article)

I think they were including things like travel and executive meals/networking as work time in the hours worked per week. I also assume these people really like their work (more like a hobby), which I can see making it easier to put in the hours. And at some point they can probably afford to pay for things that most of us do in our off hours (cook, clean, sit in traffic). So the numbers are definitely greater than butt in chair time.

This is also my impression of some billionaires. I found this article about the work ethic of some famous people: https://www.inc.com/business-insider/work-ethic-of-super-successful-people.html
