Lifehack Tips
Feb. 15th, 2015 04:54 pmTwo tips that are making a big difference in my life these days.
#1) (previously posted): Keep at least one dry-erase marker in the bathroom. Write notes to yourself in the mirror. Best for the kind of thing you think of right out the door for work and will forget by the time you get home. (i.e., "Replace bulb in lamp.")
#2) Keep 3 or 4 really bright colors of nail polish around. Use them to mark things with dots so you can tell what belongs with what. Things I have used it for:
-- this key goes with this window lock
-- this electrical plug belongs to this piece of equipment. (i.e, the monitor and its plug on the power strip have a blue dot; the computer itself and its plug have a gold dot, etc.)
-- This switch setting matches this. (i.e., the switch between inputs is far back on the boombox, so there's a purple dot on the setting for Aux and on the tip of the in-jack; there's a blue dot on the setting for CD and another on the lid of the CD player, etc.)
