Well my 10 year high school reunion is coming up and that got me to thinking, back when I was a senior in high school I worked at a grocery store and never had any money or was that happy. I was under the impression that college and getting a “real” 9-5 job would change that. Then I decided to risk everything, drop out of college and start my own business. You know what happened? I worked my ass off and built a business that not only allowed me to do the things I wanted to do, I was able to meet some of the most amazing people in my life, travel to places I never thought I would see and most importantly feel like I was actually part of something important that benefited other people.

TeuxDeux: The Pefect To-Do List
So for the longest time I had been looking for a to-do list app for my iPhone. Not only just an iPhone app, but something that I could use on my desktop or pretty much anywhere. So many of the apps that I found were not simple to do list’s and have so many unnecessary features that makes things confusing and do not get the job done. A couple of months ago my friend Pat told me about TeuxDeux.

Hacking My Sleep – Part 1: Planning
One of the biggest problems I’ve faced since I was young was being able to fall asleep. It would take me 1-2 hours or even more to fall asleep after actually going to bed. I think this is because I always have a lot on my mind and I think about what all I have to do the next day. Wasting 1-2 hours falling asleep makes me get less sleep, which is never good. Also for the past month probably I have not had a morning where I woke up and felt refreshed. It seems I wake up and I always still feel tired. This obviously affects my work so I knew I had to do something about it.
