Why Successful Individuals Wear The Same Outfit Daily

Why Successful Individuals Wear The Same Outfit Daily Every single day we make hundred of decisions: Should I hit the snooze button or not? What time should I leave for school/work? Should I exercise today? And if so, what time? What should I eat for dinner? Should I work more hours today or go home? Etc. There are hundreds of things, if not more, that have to be decided on daily. Some decisions are important, but most are trivial. Unfortunately, studies have shown that as humans, our capacity to consistently make well thought out decisions is finite. What this means is that when you use your brainpower earlier in the day deciding what to eat for breakfast, you’ll consequently have less of it later in the day when you have to decide if you should have that piece of cake or not. This is what’s known as decision fatigue, which is the psychological condition where making a decision in the present will reduce your decision making ability in the future. John Tierney, coauthor of the New York Times bestselling book “Willpower,” says, “Decision fatigue helps explain why ordinarily sensible people get angry at colleagues and families, splurge on clothes, buy junk food at the supermarket and can’t resist the dealer’s offer to rustproof their new car. No matter how rational and high-minded you try to be, you can’t make decision after decision without paying a biological price. It’s different from ordinary physical fatigue - you’re not consciously aware of being tired - but you’re low on mental energy.” Simply put, every decision you make uses up your mental energy. Just the simple act of thinking about whether you should choose A or B will tire you out and reduce your brainpower. This means that the more decisions you have to make throughout the day, the weaker your decision making process will become. This is why many successful individuals like Barack Obama, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg and Albert Einstein decided to reduce the amount of decisions they make throughout the day by doing things such as choosing to adopt a monotonous wardrobe. They understood that less time spent on making decisions meant more brainpower and time for everything else. For the majority of the time Obama spent in office, he always wore either a gray or blue suit. In an article by Michael Lewis for Vanity Fair, President Obama explained why he did this, “You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits. I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make. You need to focus your decision-making energy. You need to routinize yourself. You can’t be going through the day distracted by trivia.” Steve Jobs famously wore the same black turtleneck, blue jeans and New Balance sneakers every day. This quickly became his signature look as well as a part of the overall brand of Apple. Steve also understood that he had a finite capacity of brainpower to make well thought out decisions. A minute more a day using his brainpower to decide which T-shirt to wear is less brainpower he would have to think about his company. Albert Einstein was also known for owning several variations of the same gray suit so that he wouldn’t have to waste time and brainpower deciding on which outfit to wear every morning. If you’re constantly worrying every day about little decisions like what to wear, you’ll become more mentally exhausted as the day progresses. In order to save your mental power for the important decisions of the day, you have to learn to automate the mundane decisions you go through every day so that you don’t have to constantly think about them and waste brainpower. Here are some things you can do: 1. Like Steve, Zuckerberg and Einstein, find a few t-shirts, sweaters, jeans, and dresses you like and buy multiple quantities of them. Then essentially wear the same thing every day. 2. Schedule a set time to exercise every day. Don’t constantly use your brainpower trying to think about when is a good time to exercise. 3. Do your grocery shopping at the same time once a week. 4. Design a morning routine. The morning is filled with a lot of mundane decisions that you can learn to automate such as what to wear, what to eat, what time to leave, what time to wake up, etc. You can automate all your morning decisions with a routine. 5. Make a few meals that you have every day the same. This can be a great dieting tool, but the main idea is you don’t want to be worrying about what to make, which ingredients to use and what the nutritional value of each meal is throughout the day, every day. These are just 5 of the hundreds of decisions that you make throughout the day that you can learn to automate. But truthfully, you could probably automate and eliminate about 80% of the decisions you make every day. You just have to be aware of this concept and learn to notice which decisions aren’t high quality important decisions and then delegate those.

World shell-shocked after Donald Trump wins American presidency

World shell-shocked after Donald Trump wins American presidency

FIRST it was Canada. Now Australia and New Zealand have recorded a surge in Americans looking for another home, after thousands protested against Donald Trump. Protesters burned an orange-haired Donald Trump head in effigy, lit bonfires and blocked traffic as anger over the billionaire’s election to the presidency spilled onto the streets of major cities. From New York to Los Angeles, thousands of people marched, rallied and chanted in around 10 cities against the billionaire president-elect a day after his stunning upset win, some carrying signs with slogans such as “Not our President” and “Love trumps hate.” Protesters carrying signs reading “Dump Trump” gathered outside Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue, where the president-elect lives. Police said they had arrested 15 people, the New York Times reported. In Washington, several hundred gathered in front of the White House for a candlelight vigil More protests grew in Boston, New Orleans, Colorado, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Texas, Arizona, Seattle, Tennessee and Pennsylvania. Arrests were made as thousands of protesters thronged streets in midtown Manhattan while at a park further downtown hundreds who had gathered screamed “Not my president.” In Chicago, they also chanted phrases like “No Trump! No KKK! No racist USA.” The anti-Trump rallies come after Hillary Clinton revealed the US election result will be painful “for a long time”, but urged her supporters to give Trump the “chance to lead.” President Obama will host Donald Trump in the Oval Office tomorrow, hoping to ease a smooth transition of power and steady nerves after an election that has shocked the world. 7.25PM AEDT: Trump begins to play catch up on transition to White House The true test now begins for Donald Trump. The Republican president-elect paid little attention to transition planning leading up to his stunning victory. With 72 days before he takes control of the executive branch, Trump and his senior team on Wednesday immediately began the herculean task of picking a Cabinet and tapping hundreds of appointees to senior roles in key departments - State, Defense, Homeland Security, Commerce and Treasury among them - many requiring multiple security reviews or Senate confirmation. “They have a long way to go,” said Max Stier, president and CEO of the Partnership for Public Service, an outside group that was working with both campaigns on transition planning since the summer. “It’s imperative to have the right people brought in fast and they’re prepared.” Stier described the transition as “a point of maximum vulnerability” for the nation. As president-elect, Trump is entitled to get the same daily intelligence briefing as President Barack Obama - one that includes information on U.S. covert operations, information gleaned about world leaders and other data gathered by America’s 17 intelligence agencies.

5.40PM AEDT: Remember, don't come by boat - whatever you do Americans are looking up how to move to Australia after Donald Trump was elected President. Australia's immigration website had a surge of visits from people US in the past 24 hours, according to the Department of immigration and Border Protection. "There has been an increase in traffic to the Department’s website from the United States over the past 24 hours," a Department spokesman said Thursday afternoon. But there had been no "noteworthy" increase in the number of enquires about migration to Australia. "Consistent with our strong historical ties, Australia has always been a popular destination for people looking to migrate or visit from the United States," the spokesman said. Canada's immigration website crashed yesterday after the election result became apparent. New Zealand's immigration department reports its website was visited by 70,500 times by users in the United States yesterday. Some 7300 formally registered their interest in immigrating.

Hausa actress Ummi Ibrahim Zeezee insinuates she's engaged to former military leader, IBB

Dear fiancé, heart beat, handsome, lovable and charming" are the words used by Hausa actress Ummi Ibrahim Zeezee to describe former Nigerian Military President, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, via social media in her recent posts. In 2013, she granted an interview, stating that IBB loves her and she loves him too. This was of course after she took to Facebook to reveal that the 75-year-old former military ruler was planning to marry her but there were things to be sorted out first. Who believes her? I doubt if she was a real fiancee she would be allowed to write all these on social media about him. See all that after the cut..

Taiwan set to legalize same-sex marriages, a first in Asia

Taiwan set to legalize same-sex marriages, a first in Asia


AIPEI, Taiwan (AP) " Su Shan and her partner are raising 5-month-old twins together, but only one of the women is their legal parent. That could soon change as Taiwan appears set to become the first place in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage.

"Now, if something happens to the child, the other partner is nothing but a stranger," said Su, a 35-year-old software engineer in Taipei. By contrast, either partner in a legally recognized marriage could make legal, medical and educational decisions, she says.

Taiwanese lawmakers are currently working on three bills in support of marriage equality, one of which is already listed for review and could be passed within months. Same-sex marriage also has the prominent support of President Tsai Ing-wen, Taiwan's first female head of state.

About 80 percent of Taiwanese between ages 20 and 29 support same-sex marriage, said Tseng Yen-jung, spokeswoman for the group Taiwan LGBT Family Rights Advocacy , citing local university studies. Taiwan's United Daily News found in a survey taken four years ago that 55 percent of the public supported same-sex marriage, with 37 percent opposed.

That's seen as a reflection of Taiwan's ready acceptance of multi-party democracy and other inclusive attitudes, as well as the fact that Taiwan's 23 million people largely follow Buddhism and traditional Chinese religions that take no strong positions on sexual orientation or gay marriage.

Gay and lesbian relationships began to find wide acceptance in the 1990s, aided by the already well-established feminist movement, said Jens Damm, associate Professor in the Graduate Institute of Taiwan Studies at Chang Jung University in Taiwan.

"The elite became in favor of a kind of gender equality," Damm said.

Still, same-sex marriage still had to overcome traditional perceptions of gender roles and the strong pressure on children to marry and have kids. The self-ruled island also lacks many openly gay and lesbian celebrities to lead the way; the writer and television talk show host Kevin Tsai is among the few exceptions.

Taiwan would join Canada, Colombia, Ireland, the United States and 16 other countries that have legalized same-sex marriage over the past 15 years, according to the Washington, D.C.-based LGBT rights advocacy group Human Rights Campaign . But it would be a notable exception among Asian and Middle Eastern countries, at least 20 of which continue to ban same-sex intercourse.

It's a big step forward for the history of human rights," said Yu Mei-nu, a ruling Democratic Progressive Party lawmaker who is sponsoring the same-sex marriage bill now in line for parliamentary debate. "If Taiwan can get this passed ... it will give other Asian countries a model."

Taiwan's Justice Ministry has not backed a specific bill, but pledged on its website last month to maintain an "attitude of openness" toward same-sex marriage. President Tsai said as recently as October that she supports same-sex marriage.

Domestic gays and lesbians have also formed an effective lobby in recent years. An annual Gay Pride march in Taipei last month drew tens of thousands of people, many pushing for gay marriage. About 100 people have separately formed a group pushing for the cause.

For Log Chen, a Tarot card fortune teller in Taipei, legalized marriage would mean she and her partner of three years could make future plans with more confidence.

"In case something happens to my partner, I will not be left with nothing," Chen, 32, said.

While practical issues such as sharing assets and medical benefits are motivating factors, simple love and respect are also a strong impetus, said Jay Lin, founder and director of the Taiwan International Queer Film Festival.

"There are lots of people who have been loving and committed to each other for decades and they'd like to put a ring around their finger," said the father of 4-month-old twin boys, who said he would consider marrying his partner.

Still, as legalization grows closer, opposition to same-sex marriage is hardening among a small minority of fundamentalist churches and conservative politicians. That includes some members of the main opposition Nationalist Party's Central Standing Committee, party spokesman Hu Wen-chi said.

During their time in power, the Nationalists stopped earlier efforts to pass same-sex marriage bills, including one introduced in 2013 that met opposition from Christian groups that gathered signatures from about 400,000 naysayers.

Legalizing same-sex marriages would burden Taiwan's welfare system and be tough on children, said Chen Chih-hung, chairman of the year-old political party Faith And Hope League, which has no seats in parliament.

The death of a same-sex spouse would leave the survivor dependent on government support as many couples would not have children to support them in old age, Chen said. Children of such couples would find it difficult to socialize with children from more mainstream families, he said, although that argument has been refuted by many social scientists.

Su, the software engineer, said she and her partner, also 35, find little sign of such concerns among the people they meet. Most Taiwanese are highly accepting of their relationship and their right to raise children, she says.

"We go to the market with our kids and people say 'how cute,'" she said. "When they find there are two mamas, they feel intrigued. Maybe they have seen news about this type of family but don't have friends near them who are doing it."
