  2. Yeah making one extra copy just seems to make it worse, you start to rely on it and it ends up in the mess and you assume that one is not in the car.
    Then you become less careful. not finding is keys is not a problem cause you know theres another one some where


    Try making 20 copies. chances of them being all lost or all not in your car will be slim. you should be ok for a year lol

    I dont even have a spare, it just does not help. but I wonder about the magnet key holder thing. if i come accross one ill but it.
    nice to some one with a similar issue.

    How you can get through my posts are beyond me

    Once the world comes to an end we will rule!

    pretty sure hersh is add and obsessive compulsive,they had no definitions,excuses in his day so in his mind he.s just how he is,no scapegoat defintions to fall back on and feel sorry for himself,imaginary hurdles,he just gets it done regardless of what others think, to hersh,hersh is normal,and hersh if you read this,they call that intestinal fortitude,strong constitution,how ever you slice it, hat's off to you

  7. I a world where most are concerned about their job above all, different may be a good thing. While the rest of the world gives 3 months of their year to pay for others to print money and depreciate their checks, different may just be good.

    I was reading some thing on behaviour psychology. It was different veiws of what drives people

    They had a pyramid of wants, at the bottom food (my nemesis) going up from there was things like love money fame ect.

    There were different points of view. Some say that when one only works on one step at a time.

    So if you are offered fame before food, it will have very little value. but if you have food money then suddenly fame is all you focus on.

    One focus is fully on the next level. every thing else is of little importance.

    Looking at the idea with out the details. I think I work on many things at the same time. There is no preference to work on tomorrows problem as fixing things in a rush is simply a patch up job.

    I tend to work on that which I am best equipped at at the time "maximizing" quality. (the quotes should be bold)

    So maybe we work on each aspect of our pyramid all at once leaving each one unfinished. I have see so many smart professional people with ADD fall flat on their faces after years of working as engineers. Suddenly for some reason they end up right back at the bottom. As nice as it to see that others have a wired life, it kinda sucks that the only way to make it is the high risk way,

    Luckily, those that did not have support have a gift of not being so sensitive to fear of he unknown, a gift that is great when one is single.

  8. Isn't ADD a prerequisite of someone attempting to day trade?

  10. Thanks Ammo, I have analysed that the cheapest place to Kleenex is Amazon. Took a bit but now we all know! (Alls I need now is a credit card thingy lol)

    ADD and trading cross at the point where doing nothing at home for extended period of time kick in.

    Besides that I would have to say that (atleast foteh first ew years) ADD is probably a reason for failure.

    sloppyness disorganiation. no target of at to do. constantly changing direction. all bad.

    But yes more ADD'ers will come accross trading it would think
