I is tired, work too hard - Image 1Lifehack.org  has an interesting new article on how to improve one's well-being. In this case, it's on one's productivity. Yes, it may sound cliche, but they do have some decent tips that make sense, and it isn't all the standard stuff you'd get from self-help books, and from celebrity TV shrinks. In fact, some gamers may find these tips useful.

For example, tip number 11 says "Write a blog to chronicle your own personal development and achievements" Something a lot of homebrew folks with schedules they need to meet (and priorities they need to juggle) do.

Tip number 20 says "Use a Tivo or DVR". Tip number 40 delves into the semi-technical and suggests that one "Start a polyphasic sleep schedule."

A famous form of polyphasic sleeping is the Uberman's Sleep Schedule, wherein sleepers take 20 minute naps every 4 hours throughout the day. It may sound extreme but many suggest that it's effective and as it's intended to extend REM sleep time. Sounds weird, but could be useful if you're trying to schedule a mean MMORPG power leveling marathon.

There's a whole lot of other tips, but we suggest that you get all of it via our "read" link below. We'll leave you with our fave tip in the list. Tip number 39: "Speed up your Internet with a broadband connection."
