Shaving
Told to me from a guy whose mom runs a salon.
I can't recommend the Wahl Peanut enough for shaving. About $40, small, and durable. I don't have to mess around with blades getting old, dull, or not having any, it doesn't pinch, and gives a damn close shave. For special occasions I'll break out the old Mach 8 to get a wet shave in after using the Peanut.

Cold showers
This has been said over and over, but its worth mentioning again. Wakes you up, great after a morning workout. There are some articles about raising testosterone and other bs. I just had trouble getting rolling in the mornings and they cured that.

Turvis tumblers
Best goddamn cups on earth. Keeps hot shit hot, cold shit cold, doesn't leave rings on your desk.

Behavioral Psych books
Get some if you sell anything to anyone.

I tried to post things that I haven't seen rehashed everywhere, you do the same.

I don't know... I probably do loads of things that I think are really great and efficient, when in reality, everyone just thinks I'm an idiot.

I'm the type who will have a mission planned out in his head just to goto the market to grab groceries for dinner. Dog food lady takes longest, so hit her first, and let her know what I need. Then hit the vegetable lady, let her know what I need, and quickly skirt over to the pork, chicken or beef guy, because they're the quickest. By the time I have my protein in hand, veggie lady has my stuff bagged & ready, and by the time I get back to the dog food lady my stuff is bagged and she knows how much I owe.

In and out, 2 minutes flat. I hate god damn shopping. Especially in Thailand, with loads of people wandering around aimlessly admiring the clouds.

I read about an article where a guy would take Sunday afternoons to do all of the housework, laundry, dishes, pay bills, and cook meals for the week, basically all of the knick knack shit that we spread out during the normal week. Another thing I do is use a slow cooker to have roasts or stews cooking while I do other shit.
 
Oh, almost forgot one of the most important ones. Cleaning lady.

Think I'll have to get myself a grocery / general shopping lady soon too. That would actually come in quite handy. Even have a whole bloody system all planned out in my mind for that already. Would make a little Android app, take pictures of everything needed at the grocery store, and put it into a categorized list in the app. Would have the photos, English, and Thai words. Whenever I needed things, would just select them on the tablet, print off a shopping list, and hand it to her.

Would actually come in handy, that. Then I just rationalize it as a time saving investment, versus me being a lazy cunt.
