List

Just been reading an article on how high achievers organise their lives. There is a pattern: all of them start early (around 5:00); even though they leave the office at around 18:00 they do not stop working;  they all have some exercise routine and they respond to emails throughout the day because they get about 500 per day. Tough schedule, right!

Well if you think this is too much then you do not have to stress too much because there are so many other options open to you: you can be a wage slave, failed artist, cowboy plumber, petty thief, local weirdo. The money isn’t good, but the hours are very attractive.

The choice is yours!
