Procrastinating? Your brain feels overwhelmed by the task. Tell yourself that you’re going to spend 15 minutes on it and do what you can. You’re far more willing to dive in.
Taking on the whole task feels overwhelming so you don’t start. Tell yourself that you’re not trying to complete it, only that you’ll spend 15 minutes working on it, which feels much more achievable. So you start the task, and usually end up spending more than 15 min on it and realize it’s not as bad as you thought. Even if you don’t finish it, you got over the hump of starting. Next time spend another “15 minutes”.

#15 The wish-list is made by HR, not the department you will work. I've seen some ridiculous lists in IT that nobody could ever fulfill.

#16 what is this push lately to get people to walk away from friends if they aren't calling you?
Obviously if they are trying to take your money or being abusive then run don't walk away, but long term friendships go through changes just like any relationship. Life happens.
It's hard to maintain friendship with someone who spends the first 5 minutes of contact scolding me for not calling more.
On the other hand, my best long time friendship is so chill. We can go a year without talking and still just pickup where we left off. The only way to have a lifelong friend is to stay friends.
