Have you ever felt that you married the wrong person? How does one deal with that feeling?
Read a lot of these answers. Most of this is more or less typical stuff we hear. My case isn't so typical.(This is going to be very long, there's no one I've ever shared this with in real life, in this much depth).I'm a 27 year old woman, been married for 2 years. A little necessary background - I was always told that I'm extremely attractive and smart and chased around by guys. But I had neglibile dating and sexual history by the time I was 25, because I was the kind who kept waiting for 'the one', the one who'll be blow me right away, make me feel the things I never have. It's funny because I'm very logical and rational when it comes to other aspects of life, but this is how I was when it came to love and romance - living in my fairytale world and waiting for my prince charming like a silly teenaged bobblehead.But then, I actually met 'the one'.. at least I thought so. I was absolutely intimidated by his attractiveness and intelligence (and I liked being intimidated). He was also very charming, humorous and a very good talker. He was PERFECT. And he fell in love with me, and treated my really good. What could have been better than that? I could never imagine. We got married just within 9 months of having met and 6 months of dating.But something started changing soon after we got married. He started acting aloof. He didn't even want to talk to me, or want to know about my life, or share anything about his. He never showed me any affection,compassion or care. Even his good bye kisses felt very formal. It was like we had no emotional bonding at all. He didn't even care for me when I was sick, he would just tell me to 'get well soon' like I'm some casual acquaintance. The height of insensitivity was when ny father had a heart attack, and he was completely unfazed. He told me to stop crying like an idiot and behave like a 'grown woman', because he wasn't dead after all. And when were out, especially in social settings, this same man would be all over me, not letting go of my hand, giving me small pecks and telling people how he had the best wife ever. Then, when no one was around, he'd go back to being a stranger. And while he didn't care about most things, there were some things he obsessively cared about. He was really concerned about what I wore. He kept buying me expensive dresses, shoes, jewellery - even when I'd clearly tell him that I absolutely do not want it. My closet literally looks like that of a supermodel. He was also obsessed with my body and he noticed the tiniest and most irrelevant things about my physical appearance. Sometimes, he'd stare at me for hours. At first, I found it very romantic. But it wasn't romantic - it was creepy.At times, he was extremely critical of my physical traits and said totally insensitive things. I take very good care of my fitness and appearance anyway, but he would find flaws in me that you wouldn't even think would be noticeable, such as my breasts could have been firmer, that I should do butterfly stretches to have more of an inner thigh gap (I DO have one, but hey, it's not wide enough!), that my underarms are a little discoloured.I can't imagine how this man would feel about me once I'm no longer at my peak of physical attractiveness.When he 'compliments' me, it's something bizarre like "I love how your face is perfectly symmetrical, and how your facial features are like scientifically proportionate.", “I honestly can't think of anyone other than Adriana Lima who's more beautiful than you.” What the fuck? A heartfelt "you're beautiful" is many times more welcome, but that never came.He would do the same for my mental abilities too. Like, the other day he called me forgetful and questioned my knowledge as a chartered accountant because I couldn't instantly remember a clause of the Indo-US double tax treaty. Hello, I'm human ?I couldn't figure him out. With each passing day, he seemed more and more distant and cold. There were times when I confronted him about it, but for no use at all. I could be crying my eyes out and he'd calmly say "you're being stupid and irrational". He'd tell me that all 'problems' were entirely in my head. That he's just occupied with work and is the kind of person who needs a lot of space. That it just wasn't 'logical' to feel the way I did. He'd condition me to believe that everything I felt was lacking, was somehow my fault entirely. He's very good with arguments and manipulation and he'd prove even the biggest pile of gibberish to be the most logical thing ever. But this didn't help how I actually felt. I was getting more and more miserable with each day. I felt horribly inadeqaute, insecure, ugly.That's when I started seeing a psychiatrist and when I described all my problems to her ( I was fairly convinced that all my problems were nothing but a delusion, just like he had told me - and that's the problem I went to her with), she was quick to conclude that I was perfectly normal and rational, I definitely wasn't delusional or indulging in hallucinations. She started assessing his personality instead, on the basis of things I'd tell her. Then, she started to tell me to look for certain 'signs' in his behavior and mannerisms. And she was ALWAYS right. I started to notice things that I never had before, or had simply overlooked. Looking back, there were n number of red flags I had downright ignored.So, this is the kind of person my husband is. He has no care or empathy for anyone in this world. There's no one he is emotionally close to. He doesn't love me one bit. Not me, not anyone else. He LOVES being admired. When he's kind or helpful to people - it's because he wants to be admired. He's very hard on himself, just like he is on me. He'd think he's fat while you could count 6 rippling abs on his stomach that very moment. He turns into a self loathing monster if he is ever less than extraordinary. He is OBSESSED with his social image. Everything about his life MUST appear absolutely perfect to everyone else. That's all - his world revolves only around himself and we're all just some irrelevant, replaceable puppets.One major thing that I found out (okay, I had to invade his privacy for that) was that he had a spy conduct a detailed background check on me before he asked me out. It's a 37 page document that lists everything from dating and sexual history, lifestyle, social circle, family, the kind of image I carry, the kind of perception people have of me and a lot of strange stuff. I don't know how that person would've found out all of this, but it was accurate to the core and it absolutely freaked me out. The reason for all of this is simple. He wanted to marry a certain kind of girl - she's beautiful, tall and thin, feminine, successful in her career, dresses a certain kind of way, doesn't have sketchy sexual past or trashy habits etc. I was ticking all of his boxes, and that was that. He couldn't care less about me as a person, let alone be in love with me. He buys me all that stuff and pays so much attention to my appearance for those exact same reasons. And that's why he wants to show to the world that we have a perfect marriage.Yes, he is a classic case of a narcissistic nutcase.Now, I have the puzzle figured. But I haven't confronted him about it. I'm still married to him. I no longer try to develop any kind of connection with him other than the biweekly sex (which he initiates) , and he seems very happy and at peace this way.I have no clue how to go about this and how to break it to him that I don't want to be with him anymore. My psychiatrist has warned me that he could act like a complete psychopath, could harm himself and could be dangerous if I told him that I want to leave him. Not because he loves me, but because I would be breaking the perfect illusion he's worked so hard to create, and which he protects fiercely. She told me that he also would be very insecure about anyone seeing through him because deep down, he KNOWS how abnormal he is.I would also be giving a major shock to my parents, who have no idea of all of this. It would be an earthshattering thing for them if I got a divorce (Indian society - where people endure an entire lifetime of physical abuse but still don't separate). Moreover, my father already is a heart patient.To everyone else, I'm the luckiest woman on earth. I have the most desirable man ever. Yet, every night, I cry endlessly into my pillow. I feel extremely weak and clueless. The truth is that I'm still coming in terms with the fact that all of this was nothing but a short lived beautiful nightmare which will now scar me and leave me broken for life.I loved him with all my heart. Sometimes I feel like I still love him, and that I should let him be the way he is and stay with him anyway. But I know that isn't the right thing to do. What I don't know is - how to go about it. And I have no idea how long I'll take to figure it out.

As a software developer, what distractions have you effectively cut out of your day?
IF I need to concentrate (heavily) on something:I have an office door, with a lock. (But, people still knock or walk-in, despite seeing me with my headphones on, concentrating on code.) I won’t take a job where I don’t have an office (and it must have internal windows so people can see if I’m busy or not, and external windows so that I can see outside when I need to think).I turn my cell-phone(s) off.I have absolute control over this.Sometimes I forget to turn them back on.Sometimes one or both discharge, and I forget to plug it in ;)I can and sometimes if not often do unplug my office phone. (Sometimes I forget to plug it back in; my boss gets irritated with me when he walks in and sees this.)I never answer voice-mail.For the most part, unless I’m expecting a call and somehow miss it — I just delete the whole box. I usually clear it once a month.If the phone is plugged-in, it’s usually for conference calls. Otherwise, I ignore unexpected external numbers, and only answer rings from people I’m currently working with on projects (or expect to call about something I’ve received prior notification about via chat or e-mail).Only my boss complains about this. We’ve talked. He knows. He doesn’t care unless something important happens; and it’s only really once a year, so, I don’t care.I check e-mail and have chat open at the start of my day. (Before I get busy. I don’t mind spending time helping and looking into things.)I check e-mail and have chat open, sometimes during lunch. (Maybe.)I check e-mail and have chat open at the end of the day. (When I’m about done and only writing things up. I don’t mind hanging around helping out when and where I can.)If I am working, I AM NOT distracted by pop-up notifications or counters from either chat or e-mail, nor news feeds, etc…This is all very basic. I cringe when I’m chatting with co-workers at their computer and see all of this crap open, or if a cell phone goes off, etc.Also different from co-workers, I don’t have or keep things like FB or personal e-mail open and accessible all-day, every-day.I might monitor personal e-mail, on-and-off, using personal devices on cellular networks, not work networks (hardwired or wi-fi), if I’m expecting a delivery, or to check home security if I receive an alert, etc.BUT, I’m just a little-bit different — after enough time and experience, I could care less about most of these things. I get some crap for not being always connected, but, I also get things done, and, so long as I’m productive and helpful, people generally don’t complain. When someone does complain, I remind them that I’m working, this helps me work, they should try it too, etc. (Notably: My boss, who complains the most, has adopted some of my habits.) Also, one of the reminders I sometimes say to people is along the lines of: “You don’t want me harping on your work habits, do you?” Usually shuts people down on-the-spot. Similarly, people have complained to HR. Sometimes that I get special treatment for acting like this. Sometimes that I’m inaccessible or unavailable. And I just shrug my shoulders and ask something like: “Am I not doing my job? Am I doing my job wrong? If I complain about someone else, will you address that issue, or is it only me?” (I have been told that I should have e-mail and chat open to maintain regular communication. But, I ignore this; I notify people if I’m going to miss or skip a meeting or be out of the office. Beyond that, I could care less. I think my communication is RIGHT ON THE MARK, instead of the obsessive nature of being always connected, always distracted, always irritated. A generational term: I tell people who get freaked-out or pissed-off about this: “Go take a chill-pill.”)I am not a dog.I do not like leashes or collars (USB chargers, nor constant communication).Part of all of this came about after being responsible for something, being asked for help because other people who were supposed to be more responsible were unavailable, and, after emulating this “nobody gives a shit and it doesn’t matter” behavior when I got stressed out (just up and went on vacation with a weekend’s notice), I was unceremoniously fired from a job. So, now I do what I want, and everyone else who doesn’t like it or can’t handle it can f-off. Life can’t get much worse than that previous time-period where you do what is asked and requested, and then get f*ed-over. Haven’t had any problems since. I do my job, do what I’m asked, limit my interactions, and don’t stress-out over things I can’t control or people who don’t care.But even before I solidified my personal work habits, they were starting to take shape — having realized that constant distractions lead to lack of productivity or accomplishment. Further: It’s my life experience. It’s not my place to shove it down other people’s throats. Those who don’t get it will learn or experience it in time, or, maybe never.So I just sorta do my thing, and let other people stress over their own crap. And when someone tries to throw their crap my way, I return the favor, so to speak.

How can I do more to signNow my goals? I am wasting too much time procrastinating and on tasks that sidetrack my progress.
What are your goals? Maybe they’re the wrong ones. When you think about having your goals fulfilled do you feel pumped? Or just so,so?What’s more important than having goals are the reasons you have those goals. If the outcome of your goals inspires you you’ll be drawn to them as if by magic. That doesn’t mean you won’t have to work for them, it just means you’ll move towards them in a natural way.if your goals don’t inspire you every step along the way will be work and drudgery. The why behind your goals is more important than the goals themselves. In my life I was inspired to set a goal that I would make 6 figures in 10 years. At the time I was making minimum wage. When I set that goal I thought I knew how I was going to accomplish it. Things didn’t work out the way I thought they would, I even had a few setbacks. Just 3 years years before my goal came due I was still making minimum wage, but I had been building skills. I made a job chage where I doubled my income. Eighteen months later I was able to make a contact through that job where I could make another job change that tripled that. By the 10th year anniversary of setting that 6 figure goal I was making $10,000 a month. Not only did I make my goal I surpassed it. I had to take risks and move well outside my comfort zone, but I signNowed my goal.The key wasn’t the intellectual reasons for the goal, it was the strength of the desire to signNow it, it was the emotional impact. My why for meeting my goal kept me moving in the right direction and caused me to make choices that increased my skills and take good steps in the right direction.Find your why for your goals and if your current goals don’t generate that why find some that will.

Is Elon Musk coming from a wealthy family?
Elon Musk was a multi-millionaire by the time he signNowed the age of thirty-one thanks to his creation of the company that became PayPal, the popular money-transfer service for Web consumers. Musk has become one of a new breed of what the New York Times called "thrillionaires," or a class of former high-tech entrepreneurs who are using their newfound wealth to help turn science-fiction dreams into reality. Musk is the founder of Space Exploration Technologies, or SpaceX, a company based in El Segundo, California. In 2005 SpaceX was busy building the Falcon rocket, which he hoped could some day make both space tourism and a colony on the planet Mars realistic goals for humankind.Musk is a native of South Africa, born in 1971 to parents who later divorced. His father was an engineer and his mother—originally from Canada—was a nutritionist. Musk was fascinated by science fiction and computers in his adolescent years. When he was twelve, he wrote the code for his own video game and actually sold it to a company. In his late teens, he immigrated to Canada in order to avoid the required military service for white males in South Africa. It was still the era of apartheid, the South African legal system that denied political and economic rights to the country's majority-black native population. Musk was uninterested in serving in the army, which was engaged at the time in a battle to stamp out a black nationalist movement. Thanks to his mother's Canadian ties, he was able to enroll at Queen's University in Kingston, one of Ontario's top schools.Musk had planned on a career in business, and he worked at a Canadian bank one summer as a college intern. This was his only real job before he became an Internet entrepreneur. Midway through his undergraduate education, he transferred to the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a bachelor's degree in economics and a second bachelor's in physics a year later. From there, he won admission to the prestigious doctoral program at Stanford University in California, where he planned to concentrate on a Ph.D. in energy physics. He moved to California just as the Internet boom was starting in 1995, and he decided he wanted to be in on it, too. He dropped out of Stanford after just two days in order to start his first company, Zip2 Corporation. This was an online city guide aimed at the newspaper publishing business, and Musk was able to land contracts with both the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune to provide content for their new online sites.Musk was just twenty-four when he started the company, and he devoted all of his energies to see it succeed. At one point,"Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough."he lived in the same rented office that served as his company's headquarters, sleeping on a futon couch and showering at the local YMCA, which "was cheaper than renting an apartment," he explained in an interview with Roger Eglin of the Sunday Times of London. Still, the company struggled to fulfill its contracts and meet the payroll and other costs, and he looked for outside financing. Eventually a group of venture capitalists, investors who provide start-up money to new businesses, financed Zip2 with $3.6 million, but he gave up majority control of the company in exchange.In the end, Musk's decision was a smart one. In February 1999 Compaq Computer Corporation bought Zip2 for $307 million in cash, which was one of the largest cash deals in the Internet business sector at the time. Out of that amount, Musk was paid $22 million for his 7 percent share, which made him a millionaire at twenty-eight. In 1999, he used $10 million of it to start another company, which he called http://X.com. This was an online bank with grand plans to become a full-range provider of financial services to consumers. The company's one major innovation was figuring out how to securely transfer money using a recipient's e-mail address.Musk's proven track record from Zip2 helped it gain serious attention and generous investors right away. Two important executives signed on with him: investment banker John Story and Bill Harris, the former chief executive officer of Intuit Corporation, the maker of the best-selling Quicken accounting software as well as TurboTax, a tax-preparation program. Harris was appointed president and chief executive officer of http://X.com, with Musk serving as company chair. The company received a generous infusion of $25 million in start-up capital from Sequoia Capital, a leading venture-capital firm in California.http://X.com went online in December 1999 with a bold offer for new customers: those who opened an online checking account with http://X.com received a $20 cash card that they could use at an automatic-teller machine (ATM). If they referred a friend, they received a $10 card for each new member who signed up. Within two months, http://X.com had one hundred thousand customers, which was close to the number signNowed by its major competitor, Etrade Telebank. But consumer skepticism about the security of online banking was http://X.com's biggest obstacle to success, and there was a setback when Musk and the other executives had to admit that computer hackers had been able to perform some illegal transfers from traditional bank accounts into http://X.com accounts. They immediately started a new policy that required customers to submit a canceled check in order to withdraw money, but there were tensions in the office about the future of the company.In March 2000, http://X.com bought a company called Confinity, which had started an Internet money-transfer presence called PayPal. PayPal was originally set up to let users of handheld personal digital assistants, or PDAs, transfer money. It had only been in business a few months when http://X.com acquired it, and Musk believed that its online-transfer technology, which was known as "P2P" for "person-to-person," had a promising future. He and Harris did not agree, and Harris resigned from http://X.com in May 2000. Five months later, Musk announced that http://X.com would abandon its original online bank and instead concentrate on turning itself into the leading global payment transfer provider. The http://X.com name was dropped in favor of PayPal.PayPal grew enormously through 2001, thanks in part to its presence on eBay, the online auction Web site where person-to-person sales were happening in the hundreds of thousands. When PayPal became a publicly traded company with an initial public offering (IPO) of stock in February 2002, it had an impressive debut on the first day of Wall Street trading. Later that year, eBay bought the company outright for $1.5 billion. At the time, Musk was PayPal's largest shareholder, holding an 11.5 percent stake, and he netted $165 million in valuable eBay stock from the deal.By then Musk had already moved on to his next venture. In June 2002 he founded SpaceX, or Space Exploration Technologies. He had long been fascinated by the possibility of life on Mars and was a member of the Mars Society, a nonprofit organization that encourages the exploration of the red planet. Filmmaker James Cameron (1954–) is one of several notable Mars Society members. Musk wanted to create a "Mars Oasis," sending an experimental greenhouse to the planet, which in favorable alignment of the planets is about 35 million miles distant from Earth. His oasis would contain a nutrient gel from which specific Mars-environment-friendly plant life could grow. His plan had a cost of $20 million. But then he learned that to send something into space with the standard delivery method, a Delta rocket made by the Boeing Corporation, would add another $50 million to the cost. Musk even tried to buy a rocket from Russia, but realized that dealing with the somewhat suspect international traders who dealt in such underground, or illegal, items was just too risky.Borrows star Wars >nameMusk thought that maybe he might be able to build his own rocket instead. He began contacting innovators and technicians in the American aerospace industry, and he managed to lure some experienced engineers and technical specialists away from companies like Boeing and TRW to come and work for him at SpaceX's headquarters in El Segundo, California. He had a much more difficult time attracting venture capital for this idea, however. "Space is pretty far out of the comfort zone of just about every VC on Earth," he admitted to Matt Marshall of the San Jose Mercury News. Instead, he was forced to put up his own money to build what would become the first reusable rocket in the private sector.Musk and his new SpaceX team began to build two types of Falcon rockets. The name came from the "Millennium Falcon," the spacecraft in the Star Wars movies. The plan was to build a rocket by using existing technology and at the lowest possible cost. The Falcon I, for example, uses a pintle engine, which dates from the 1960s. It has one fuel injector, while standard rockets used by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) generally use what is known as a "showerhead" design that features several fuel injectors. The company also needed a theodolite, which is used to align rockets, and instead of buying it new, they saved $25,000 by finding one on eBay.There are other, equally expensive costs associated with rocketry. Since Musk's design would be reusable, the company needed to get back the rocket's first stage, which the rocket sheds as it leaves the Earth's atmosphere. The part usually falls into the ocean, according to safety plans, but retrieval at sea is expensive.The New "Thrillionaires"Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen (1953–) is ranked the seventh richest person in the world. Allen has used his wealth to finance SpaceShipOne. This private manned spacecraft, built by aircraft design pioneer Burt Rutan (1943–), was the first of its kind to signNow suborbital space twice, which it did in 2004. For this two-time achievement, SpaceShipOne met the conditions of the $10 million Ansari X prize, established by the X Prize Foundation to encourage private entrepreneurship in aerospace.Doom video game co-creator John Carmack (1970–; see entry) founded a computer game development company called id Software in 1991. He is considered one of the most gifted programmers ever to work in the gaming industry. He was one of the creators of the successful Doom and Quake games, which sold millions in the 1990s and attracted legions of devoted fans. In 2000, Carmack funded a new venture, Armadillo Aerospace in Mesquite, Texas, with the goal of building a manned suborbital spacecraft. It lost its bid to win the Ansari X prize when its vehicles ran into technical problems and crashed in 2004 and 2005.In 1995, Jeff Bezos (1964–) launched Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, Books, DVDs & more, an online bookseller that became one of the most impressive successes in American business history. With an estimated personal fortune of over $5 billion, Bezos began donating some of his wealth to various philanthropic causes, but he also established an aerospace company. His Blue Origin, like Allen and Carmack's ventures, is also committed to manned suborbital space flight. His project is to be propelled by a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and kerosene and is a vertical-takeoff and landing-vehicle.Companies that contract with NASA charge $250,000 to bring such parts back, but Musk found some ocean-salvage companies that knew how to handle sensitive material. He found one that agreed to do the job for just $60,000. The Falcon does not have a specialty computer on board, which can cost $1 million alone to install and maintain. Instead its computer is a basic one that uses the same technology as an automatic teller machine and costs just $5,000.Envisions Hondas in spaceBy building a reliable rocket at an affordable cost, SpaceX hopes to be able to take small satellites into orbit for a fee of around $6 million. This is half the standard rate in the aerospace business to take something into space. The company already had two customers—the U.S. Department of Defense and the government of Malaysia. "Many times we've been asked, 'If you reduce the cost, don't you reduce reliability?' This is completely ridiculous," Musk explained to Fast Company writer Jennifer Reingold. "A Ferrari is a very expensive car. It is not reliable. But I would bet you 1,000–to–1 that if you bought a Honda Civic that that sucker will not break down in the first year of operation. You can have a cheap car that's reliable, and the same applies to rockets."Musk serves as the chief technology officer of SpaceX. All employees are shareholders, and the company's casual but committed atmosphere is reinforced by the workday presence of Musk's four dogs. He no longer sleeps at the office, however, for he has a home, a wife there, and in the garage a McLaren F1, a $1.2 million car that is the fastest production, or non-customized race car, in the world. He has testified before members of the U.S. Congress on the possibility of commercial human space flight and has also established the Musk Foundation, which is committed to space exploration and the discovery of clean energy sources. The Foundation runs the Musk Mars Desert Observatory telescope in southern Utah, as well as a simulated Mars environment where visitors can experience what life on Mars might be like, including waste-burning toilets. "I think human exploration of space is very important," he told Reingold. "Certainly, from a survival standpoint, the probability of living longer is much greater if we're on more than one planet."

How do I prepare for a 14-hour workday job?
Let me start by saying that what I'm about to say applied only to me & was based solely on my experience on how to go about it. People will have different ways and scheduling than what I had.I live in Suburbs of Delhi (called National Capital Region or NCR)&my Office was at Opposite end of Delhi's National Capital Territory (called NCT). Right off the bat, That meant even on a Regular traffic, weather & circumstances day, I had a Near 2-hours commute from my House to Work & Back Every Morning & Evening. That was followed by 12-hr workday of Semi-sedentary nature where you are constantly on Office Computer & Telephone at your desk shooting around e-mails &updating Documents, Progress reports of my work & Activity schedule, with Half-an-hour Break for Lunch at 1 PM each day. Only rarely did I get to work out in Field like Going to Banks on Financial matters or Procurement of materials as needed around town or visits to other offices or companies. This also includes running from basement to all floors of your Office building between departments. This 12-hour Shift can easily go up to 13–14 hours each working day for reasons I'm sure you can imagine. In my case, it was usually to get My documents signed for approval or Work Review etc. All this in a low-pay, 6-days a week work routine.This daily routine defined every other thing in my day and will define yours as well. So how to go about it? Consider the following:-Commutation Time:- In my case, it was 2 hours to & fro each day. This was split between half an hour shared ride to Metro Station, 1 hour-20 minutes in Metro to nearest station to my Office & about 5 minutes of walk to Premises after. Make sure you arrive each morning to wherever you work with at least half an hour earlier. You will be thankful for all the mental preparation time & time to get workdesk and daily schedule ordered. Also, you get time to prioritize what to do first before everything begins and what after?Sleeping Cycle:- My Work and Travel time along with activities here and there, like meals or social interactions allowed me 5–6 hours of sleep. Yours might be as long approximately. Best way to actually get them is make sure you are in your bed on time & get enough of it. I used to set alarms for each night so I was in bed by 10. In time, you won't need them as you get into a Routine. You will find 4+ hrs of REM sleep makes your next workday an easier chore to accomplish.Diet:- Travel and Working hours with just half an hour of Lunch Break means you have to Make your Breakfast & Dinner heavier than Lunch you might pack to Work. Normally, you wouldn't want that packed lunch to be heavy so that it would take 15–20 minutes to finish. If your Sleep Schedule is right, You would wake up Early Morning,(say..dawn? about 5 AM on average) you would be able to cook up Breakfast and packed lunch for the day, Shower and Get dressed to go to work in next 2 hours & head out. Same applies for each evening to cook & dress & Laundry as applicable each evening.Working Schedule:- For each working day, best way to get work done and time it with complexity consideration when you prepare a Time Table. It will sort everything out once you get an idea of what to do & some experience in completing them correctly. As you gain experience, your 12 hours workload will be completed quicker and easier everyday, say, in 8 hours or so everyday. Make sure primary work is done in Morning half itself because most services in the world have Working hours and time primarily operational in those hours. After your Lunch hours, Most service industries begin to Close and shut shop.Miscellaneous Activity Around this Schedule:- 12 Hours a day is doable in your own workload, but if you consider Household Activities like Your own Business which can be accomplished only during working hours (like paying Bills at counters, Banking, Recharge or Servicing of Vehicles or Appliances etc off the top of my head), you find that you need a balance and extra hours making up each day time to time because you will HAVE to start and end at your workplace. So make sure, you actually prepare for the day in light of those & when you pack for the day, you Prepare for Transactions of the day and take the documents or Cash you need. Evening hours should mainly be about your next morning and staying ahead of Daily schedule and activities in case you are unavailable or late next morning, or stuck elsewhere or plan develops snags as it often does.Go in with Mentality to Complete the Work and Enjoy the Day:- Work itself should be enjoyable or Interesting enough usually for you to be doing it as long as you do it in ideal situation, but it is not usually the case. Even if you find it hard, enjoy your small successes and work hard to complete it within time even if it seems ongoing each day. When you work long hours, you end up saving enough holidays over the year for every Day off you were called in or Medical leave assigned each month. Do not skimp out on those and use them wisely.Hope all this helped. Thanks.
