Getting Better WiFi Signal

So here you are at home, having a very important VoIP service call with a client when the WiFi signal just will not quit coming in and out. This makes the conversation that much hard and be the deal breaker in some cases. Before you run out and get the best top of the line routers, you should try several of these tricks first. I am willing to be that your router is sitting in a corner somewhere on a desk. Make sure that it is up high and in a room where you use it the most. Make sure that there are not too many metal object around or near a microwave as both of them can disrupt the signal. Also, place it in a spot where is does not have to travel through brick or concrete as they will absorb the signal. Lastly, water inhibits the WiFi signal so make sure it is not where there are a lot of people since humans are mostly water. Do you have any other tips?

The Minimum Effective Dose

I think we can all agree on the fact that we might need a couple more hours in a day to really get things done. Unfortunately there is no way to make that happen so the solution needs to come from somewhere else in our constantly on the move culture. First of all, some people view being still for some time as unproductive while in fact it is completely different than not doing anything. Taking the time to meditate is one of the best ways to recharge and actually increase productivity. It might help the feeling of being frazzled by the lack of time as well. This is also where the minimum effective dose comes in. It is a term used in the medical world but it applies to many other parts of life as well. The first step to dialing back on the hectic-ness of life and to make it seem like there are more hours in the day is to figure out the minimum effective dose for the things that you do because if left unchecked in this crazy run all the time life, it can lead to maximum tolerated dose which is never a great place to be. Delegating is also a great way to go about getting more done. Cloud services are great for syncing everything and being like a personal assistant.
