What is your current BMI, if you don't mind me asking? What are your hours of sleep per night and hours of sleep opportunity per night? I'm very interested in whatever I can learn from people who get huge amounts done every day.

I'm not saying it's very hard to be healthy while being very hard-working. Plenty of people are extremely productive and still get 7-9 hours of sleep per night like Tim Ferriss and are normal-weight like Jeff Bezos.

I listened to Dr. Walker, a sleep expert, on the Joe Rogan podcast and he said something interesting about Reagan and Thatcher. Both prided themselves on sleeping very little and both got dementia.

What are your three best tips for getting lots of things done? Or your one-page summary or something?

For example, here's what Ferriss recommends. https://tim.blog/2013/11/03/productivity-hacks/

Maybe reading blogs too much is where all my time goes.

My BMI is 28 but I'm outside normal height range for a good BMI average. I'm short and very stocky with a a half keg going for a Dad gut. I recently started Keto and have lost 26 lbs in 8 weeks. I'm still on the fence about it though because it's incredibly restrictive and managing constipation is an issue.

Sleep, during the work week I get exactly 6 hours. I studied psychology for a time and trained myself to do only 90 minute cycles so I get either 9 or 7.5 on my off days and exactly 6 on my On days. The advantages to this is waking up at the right time in a cycle and I just bounce up with much less grogginess. It takes about a week to get into the cycle but totally worth it.

I do tDCS once a week in the morning on Saturdays. I take in about 2-4 cups of coffee every morning and a green tea pick me up around 4 pm. Everything else is water. At least half a gallon a day.

My biggest recommendations stand, a day planner for me has become an indespensible part of my life. I got one that breaks a year down by the hour and it let's me track phone calls, overtime, school assignments and kids soccer practices. I never had the discipline to do it in school but I guess I matured as my responsibilities grew too. Cut the TV too. Listening to podcasts and radio will give you just as much info with out sucking the IQ out your eyes.

Joe Rogan has some great guests on his show that discuss a ton of stuff. I listen to him at work or in the car sometimes and my only beef is he will often have contradictory information on and won't get to the bottom of it.
