I Follow These Guidelines Religiously

Want To Succeed More In Life? Adhere To The Unique Morning Routines Top Business People Follow 

2. Don’t work through breakfast.
Enjoy your breakfast, chatting with the family, and put that phone away for a few minutes.

3. Go all-or-nothing on office arrival time.
Either arrive at the same time as everyone else or get there significantly earlier than everyone else. Arriving early helps you get your work done without all the disruptions that will inevitably come when the rest of the staff arrives.

4. Tackle the hardest thing first.
By doing the hardest thing first you free yourself up to deal with any unexpected obstacles you have to overcome the rest of the day.

5. Less talk, more focus.
All shooting the sh*t in the morning does is put you behind and costs you your most productive time of the day. This also means no morning meetings.

I'm Not Surprised

Study Shows UK Buyers Bought PHEVs For Discounts Not To Plugin And Save The Environment

In theory, plug-in hybrid cars are the perfect stepping stone to shifting from internal combustion engines to fully electric cars, getting us all used to the idea of plugging in our rides instead of filling them up.

But a recent report from the BBC suggests that a lot of hybrid sales in the UK came from large tax incentives, and then people just never bothered charging them.

Back in 2011, the UK passed a grant meant to incentivize people to buy plug-in hybrid vehicles by knocking £4,500, or roughly $5,740, off the sticker price and steeply undercutting the cost of most comparable diesel cars.

It's Worth The Price

Own original 16 Hot Wheels in replica store display — here's what it costs 

It's highly limited production, and really expensive 


Hot Wheels has been celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and a part of the celebration was a re-release of 5 of the original 16 cars. They were packaged in replica original packaging with Spectraflame paint and redline tires. But Hot Wheels has an even more impressive replica for the diehards: a replica of the store display from 1968 with all 16 cars.

The display is extremely limited in availability, though. Only 1,500 will be made, and they'll be offered to Hot Wheels Redline Club members first starting on November 6. Then, 36 hours later, people with Hot Wheels Collectors accounts will be able to purchase any that haven't been sold. The displays are expensive, too. The retail price is $499.99.
