"I flip my pill bottles after taking them so I remember if I took them or not. really helps if you take the same pill in morning and at night."
“Don’t put it down, put it away”
"I bought 24 pairs of the same socks and threw the rest of miss matching ones away.
I have a couple “winter socks” and that’s it."
"I did this for my kids. 24 pairs of socks, all white, gray, or navy. When he grew out of them I bought 24 more pairs in the next size, all the same color. And now little sister wears the smaller ones. Simplifies things so much"
"I stopped doing any kind of work in my dorm room at college and only did it at the libraries. Not only did I become way more productive, but I enjoyed being in my room a lot more. It’s way more comfortable (and easier) to fall asleep when you’ve taken a 15-minute walk home then when you’ve been working at your desk in the same room for 4 hours."
"Sleeping with a pillow between my knees. No more lower back pain"
"Posting this too late for anyone to see, but I brush my teeth as part of my daughter’s bedtime routine. This keeps me from snacking late at night since my teeth already feel clean and I don’t want to mess them up before bed. I’ve lost about 5″ from my waist, and it keeps me accountable to brush my teeth before I’m too tired to care."
"I do squats when I brush my teeth."
"My alarm clock is across the room, requiring me to get out of bed to turn it off. Prevents me from falling back asleep."
"A work from home life hack I adopted was using break time from work to do low mental energy chores. Stuff like dusting furniture and vacuuming the pool is a nice break from the mental energy of working and I’m getting stuff done."
"Washing dishes while cooking. Now it’s at a point where I just do it because I want a clean kitchen."
"Preparing/getting stuff ready the night before. For example:
1. Getting my shoes and putting them by the front of the door
2. Packing my backpack with all the things I’ll need for that day
3. Getting my underwear, shirt, pants, etc. out and folding them in a pile
4. Packing lunch(es) for that day
No more running around in the mornings looking for stuff on a time crunch!"
"Save time each day by masturbating at work"
"Lists of stuff you need to do. It doesn’t matter how minor it is, put it all on there.
Then, you have two options. Do the easiest one first, and demonstrate to yourself that you’ve been pointlessly putting it off. Or do the most difficult one first, so that you get it out of the way and the list becomes easier and easier to finish.
Either way, pretty soon the focus of your activity changes from the actual tasks to “crossing things off the list”. You barely even notice you’re doing the tasks anymore, you just remember the pay-off you get when you cross another item off the list."
"Making my bed and straightening my room every morning. It started when I was trying to cope with major depression. Good tool."
"Having a bedtime routine helps me to fall asleep. Otherwise, I have trouble. My routine is watching one episode of a funny or happy show on TV. And then reading manga on my phone, with the screen set to its dimmest. Works like a charm"
"Deep stretching right before bed or right when waking up. makes a world of difference"
"If you have to put something down for a bit, like say your phone or glass of water, say out loud, “I’m putting this ____ here.”
I guess that by doing that you engage different parts of you brain and makes it more likely for you to remember where you put something when you need it again."
"I work with several car technicians and have a couple hundred customers all swing by for the same issue: the dreaded transmission failure (cvt judder or anything like that)
Like many of you, I own my own car and have the worry that it’ll happen to me eventually. I wouldn’t call it a lifehack, but I’ve learned from the technicians that putting my parking/hand brake on before putting my vehicle in park reduces the stress on my transmission, prolonging it’s overall lifespan.
So everyday when I pull up to a parking spot it’s:
1. foot on the brake pedal
2. parking brake on
3. shift to park"
"Drinking one cup of water for every two alcoholic beverages.
I keep a bottle of water by my bedside before I go to bed. When I wake up to go pee I chug as much as I can and pass back out.
End up with far less of a hangover"
