We always hear about people’s bad habits but what’s your good habit? Mine is whenever I have a meal that has vegetables in it I always eat that first. That way I get it out if the way then I can enjoy the rest of meal without having to worry about eating it.
I always put stuff in the same spot so I don’t have to look for it or think about where it is. Everything in my wallet has a place, everything in my pockets always goes in the same pockets, my work ID goes in the same place when not in use, my sunglasses have a spot on the counter at home, and on and on. Greatly simplifies things and reduces stress not having to think about where stuff is or might be.
I have bowls. One near the front door for all the change in my pockets, another for keys and wallet.
I weightlift 5 days a week, I only eat whole foods with veggies at every meal and always brush my teeth before bed.
If I make a typo, rather than autocorrecting or deleting a few characters I delete the whole word and re-type it from the beginning. That way the correct spelling gets into my muscle memory and I’m much less likely to make the typo again in the future.
One of us! Also for anyone who doesn’t know, you can do ctrl+backspace to instantly delete the entire word. It’s usually faster to do that and retype it than it is to hit backspace precisely enough times to get to the typo!
If I make a typo, I try to keep as many of the letters on the page as possible - no need to throw them away and use new ones. Waste not.
This. Been doing this for decades and it’s great. Still fuck certain words up for some reason tho. Separate, people, etc.
“ie” vs “ei” are my kryptonite. e.g. receive, sieve.
Yup, I get seize backwards a lot cause it violates the i before e except after c rule.
Maybe if you think real hard about a person going into a seizure and flinging themselves backwards, it’ll pop back in your head the next time you go to type “seize” and help you remember.
I mean I know how it’s spelled, I recognize it when I get it backwards, it’s just muscle-memory fucks me about half the time.
I after E except after C and when sounded like A as in neighbor and weigh (and a thousand other exceptions)
Or whenever I please, as in feisty and seize!
and a thousand other exception
👆 🤦♂️ 🤣
Assuming that I’ll forget something and setting a reminder of some type to make sure that I don’t forget.
I do this often
I don’t understand your explanation of your habit. It comes off as you don’t like vegetables and are choking them down to get to what you like. Is that a correct interpretation? My wife just made the best dinner and all three items were green vegetables.
It’s not that I don’t like them but if I have a choice of eating vegetables VS eating a steak, I’d rather eat the steak
That’s what I thought too
I usally walk everywhere(if its further away than five km i would go by bicycle)
Wearing Monks’ cloathes
I like to donate and purge things that I think have lost all levels of relevancy to me. If I look at something, think when the last time I’ve used it was, if I feel anything at all for it anymore and if I foresee any future use for it and base my decision on that. It has helped greatly in making my apartment look entirely manageable and not be a hoarder.
I would have to trash my apartment around to make it messy as if it was a hoarder’s place, but the most mess I ever get is maybe I forgot to grab a plate or two or maybe some things are left behind. Things that take no time at all to deal with while still maintaining a decent apartment.
Learn to cook the veggies right.
Some veggies taste better roasted. Experiment
Every day, at some point, I think of three things for which I’m grateful.
Gratitude journals are amazing. I started maybe twelve years ago now. It’s helped me slow down and appreciate little things more often. I remember starting out my journal and looking for big events in my day.
I quickly learned that on bad days, I’d have to stretch to something like “I saw a cloud that looked like a puppy.” and that was when I started to look for smaller joys throughout the day. I also stopped depending on other people for joy.
I make good pastries
I require physical evidence.
On the weekend I will go for a 8.5mi hike to a abandoned fire tower and eat lunch. Same hike but I always see something different.
Write down sudden ideas for memes and other stuff even when trying to fall asleep.
Never drinking too much. I have self control when it comes to that, but not food lol.
I we ar my PPE. Most commonly eye and ear protection but I’ll wear a dust mask when routing or sanding, etc. Allowing onesself to be injured in the shop is unethical.
