If you gotta get something done now, do it first.
If you gotta get something done later, do it after you take care of things you need to do now.

Rinse and repeat. Scheduling is only good for when a lot of things need to happen in a short amount of time, which is rare. Prioritizing is key.

If you are organizing events and need to have crucial data available to you in an instant that can be displayed to other team members then a Google Drive doc. would be recommended after you create the necessary formats. This is due to an ease of availability as most android phones have drive built in allowing you to edit on the go as work assignments and variables change. Keeping track of day to day assignments i've used a whiteboard built into my room's wall and the reminders feature built into the calender of Android's CyanogenMod 12.1 (which allows specifics in a description). I could never really get into other programs as I have a tendency to lose interest.

Traditionally a Docs Spreadsheet would be perfect in team organization as it too has the same versitillity as the regular Docs files.

i use Drive for pretty much every group project. really convenient. i'm looking for something just like a whiteboard though. ive almost made a program similar to one over my winter but i figured that there was probably one i could find online with a cloud already made for me...

Read the book Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. It's about a philosophy called stoicism, which is based around accepting that your advantages and disadvantages are natural and purposeful.

You're given disadvantages because they're necessary to become who you are destined to be. If you didn't experience loss or failure, you wouldn't progress towards the better person you are becoming.

>>16773372
There are no failures, just experiments that successfully told you what doesn't work.

very well put, anon!

I hear a nice full glass of bleach helps control those cravings. You should try it, OP.

All I try to do is drink water/tea when I'm hungry and it's not meal time and not have lots of carbs like bread

Any games? What about really old shit?

KOTOR and it's sequel; Jedi Academy and Jedi exile; the original Deus Ex; Morrowind; Baldur's Gate and it's sequel; virtually anything from GoG...

That shit can play on my net book. Unless your computer is from literally 2000 it should be able to play these games (and even then, some will play.).

Also, Netflix is $10 a month and is the shit.

What is it about this place that makes so many people self-diagnose as autistic?
Anyway, dude, just ask her. Literally, just ask. Talk to her face to face, call and talk over the phone, text, IM, whatever.
"Hey, you wanna go ice skating (insert preferred date and time here)?"
If she turns you down, at least you can say you tried. If she says yes, then it means you're going in the right direction.
And try to relax. You're 18 and a lot of this stuff is mystifying to a lot of people your age and older.

>>16773358

The whole autism thing is 4chan for saying you're stupid about something; I don't actually think I have autism.

On to your answer, though, I could ask her right now if she wanted to go ice skating and I could be pretty certain she'd say yes.

My question is how to make it clear I'm asking her on a date and not just to hang out, being as we are already friends and already do stuff like that.

>>16773358
Everyone here is autistic. EVERYONE.

Oh wow what a clever way to get back at your ex-gf for dumping you, OP.

If you want to come across professional (and thus successfully sell houses and earn commission), then act the part.

Though you may not like it, it means getting a suit and tie -- and wearing it whenever you're working. Die the hair brown or black -- something 'conservative' enough to not scare away the customers, as it were. The car doesn't matter much, unless you're looking to sell million dollar houses. I suspect, however, if you're an upstart, then you'll start selling $100,000-$200,000 or even start by arranging rental agreements or so on.

>>16773340
This. The hair and clothes will have to change, and you'll have to start small, like really small.

If you want to work alone and not for an agency then network like crazy. Try an get friends and family to let you sell their homes and tell them you'll give them a percent of your commission. It won't be much but it's incentive to go with you over a company.

You won't sell that much when you start, and even when you get rolling you won't sell that much.

Have a good eye for design. So you can stage houses to make them look more appealing. Of course it's up to the seller to put in the extra money to make changes but if you know what you're doing you can increase value and sale speed.

My sister is a part-time realtor. She made around $40,000 last year. That's off $1.5 million in home values. She's been doing it for more than a decade though and has a really good network.

Back around June a mutual friend of ours, Terry Guss, helped at the Origins Game Fair booth. Dillon then got him to come down and help for the Magic Origins release since we were preselling and needed a ton of help sorting and packaging. Dillon agreed. During this time I was having a lot of problems with Dillons refusal to sign a paper/pay me anything for my time and his continued dismissal of problems I had with the way he was running our business. I talked to a few friends, again, about how I felt it was disturbing to me that he was paying Terry to come down and help out and was paying him and essentially replacing me with Terry.
It was a Friday and I finally confronted Dillon and demanded to be paid for my work and to take his father out of the business - as it felt no matter how much revenue we did we were ALWAYS still in debt to his father - We did 50k the month before and he claimed none of it went to his dad. In this time Dillon moved into a very expensive rental house, bought new computers, was constantly buying things. etc. etc . - it's all disturbing stuff to look at back at now but as we were friends at the time I wasn't looking at it the way I am now.
Less than 24 hours later I was woken up to banging on my apartment door - Dillon's dad claimed they needed Dillon's garage door opener (how I got into his house to get to the business room) due to an emergency. I gave it to him and then went to check on the business only to find myself locked out - the crystal commerce admin was changed, the paypal was changed, everything was changed. Dillon refused to answer messages and when I drove over to his house to confront him he claimed I had "stolen 5k" this year. Yet he couldn't tell me where it came from, couldn't tell me how I did it, just made the claim and then refused to ever talk to me again.
Dillon literally screwed me in every sense of the manner.

It wasn't enough to just steal the business I put way more work and effort into than he ever did - he also stole my personal property. Things I kept at his house because we were friends . He refused to return them at any point and through various attempts at getting them back. Not to mention stealing ~2k from the ebay account and never shipping the items, getting theebay account banned to the accumulation ofnegative feedback and thus getting me permanently barred from selling on ebay.

You probably shouldn't complain.

If the state isn't involved you probably aren't paying child support. If you are giving her money, it's probably much less than what you'd pay if the state was involved.

Also, she claimed the kids...because she's fucking taking care of them, not you.

To be honest I don't know the full story, but it sounds like you got away with a sweet deal, don't stir the pot.

>>16773312
I agree out of court is nice, but no i give her money every month anyways and she doesnt really do a great job with the kids, I have them more than she does. Even on her days to have them i still end up with them more than not. Court wouldnt be so bad for me, I have always provided for her and for the kids. It was cause of her asking that we stayed out of the courts. It isnt even the money that makes me mad, th fact she was trying to be sneaky i think bothers me more. was just looking to see if anyone has gone through this or had some useful advice.

Dreams don't mean jack shit. They're just dreams. There isn't some special window into your subconscious there or something.

Psychoanalytic theory ended up being counter-empirical really often and it's essentially defunct these days for this reason.

It makes me think that you hold on to something very personal to you that you see as absent from everyone else. Try to think about what might be personal to you that you think you could be losing. I think it might be your subconscious telling you that you're afraid of losing something close or important that you consider a par of you.

Also, something like that is real. People get lobotomies where they really do have this peanut-like thing in their frontal lobe removed, but it isn't common or normal, and getting it removed didn't require opening up your head.

Anyway, I hope this helped. Pleasant dreams from now on, Anon.

perhaps you are freaked out about the ways in which people delude themselves? aka they 'remove the shell' of their thinking and throw it away in order to conform?

You don't, you stay out of it. If a girl isn't head over heels for you and still thinks about her ex, she's obviously not that into you and isn't satisfied with who you are.

Gtfo asap. If you start dating her, chances are every time you have sex she'll be thinking about his cock being inside her instead of yours, and will eventually hit him up for sex.

All of this.

Have you tried using the Yandex one? I used it and works pretty well. The interface is a little bit confusing at first, but you get used in a day or two.

>>16773250

Oh God do I have a suggestion made just for folks like YOU!

That isn't a "healthy" distrust; it's a distrust that can kill you and also shows that you don't understand the development of medicine or science.

See a doctor.

I forgot to add this. I live in a third world area. We don't have the luxury of having good medical facilities or standards. My post has nothing to do with the development of medicine or science. I has to do with people here that don't give a fuck about their patients. If I could go to the states or eu for treatment i would.

>>16773111
Nope! Do your own fucking homework, OP.

>>16773084
You already know what you need to do OP.

There is no easy way out of this, tell guy #1 that you're seeing #2 before his feelings grow even bigger for you.

Obviously guy #1 is going to be crushed, but there is nothing you can do about it, that's life

>>16773084
Bonus tip:

Don't date guys within your inner circle of friends, I've seen horrible cases were it destroys the entire group.

In the best situation he understands or has been expectong it
You should try to make him understand that you werent stolen by him ( that sounds a bit objectify)
Try to make it clear
Really wish you good luck
