Tell yourself that you are awesome and that you can do it, no matter what the task at hand is. Starcraft, work, exercise doesn't matter, just keep repeating yourself. You will become awesome.

1)Next time you stay in a hotel that uses a Nokia TV system, enter the following code using the remote control: 2-2-1 - Down Arrow then push and hold down the "OK" button.

FREE PORN :D

2)Free phone Chargers
Next time you lose your phone charger, don't buy another one. Go to a hotel and say you think you lost it there. It's the #1 most left behind item at hotels, so most places have a big bin filled with every phone charger imaginable.

3)Free Air
At Shell gas stations, press the button on the side of the pump three times. The pump will start without you having to insert any coins.

4)Reverse Your Hangers
Put your clothes in your closet with the hangers reversed once a year. As you pull clothes out, reverse the hanger. Every year give away any clothes that you never took out.


THESE have nothing to do with time. But will help anyone out :D this is from LIFE HACKS there are more just Google it . thought ide share for ppl that don't know.......

There is a better way, put the whole thing in your mouth. Hold one end , and use your teeth to hold the meat in your mouth (wow never thought I would say that) and pull the bones out. GG chicken wangs.

When your boss or teacher asks you a question that you don't know, never reply "I don't know", always say "I'll get back to you on that".

When you find you are spending to much time alone on your computer and that voice in your head is speaking to you alittle louder... this means your starting to lose your sanity and a good trick for this is running a radio or tv in the background.. the human voices will make your subconscious believe your in a social situation... thus avoiding mental meltdown.. aswell as a 3 minute walk outside then back to your place will help you greatly... to become a pro gamer you must use these strats to keep from losing your marbles

Drink a lot of water to wake up everyday refreshed. You'd be surprised at how little water most people drink.

If you're wondering how much water you should drink in one day, fill up an empty 2-liter soda bottle with water and try to drink that in one day and you'll have gotten your recommended amount. I've been drinking a ton of water lately and I've been so much more energized and refreshed.


It's even better if you stop drinking soda/pop and replace it with water. It sucks for a few days, but after that it feels great and you'll probably lose weight!


Don't sacrifice things you enjoy in life just for health benefits. Living 10 years longer is not a good pay off for missing out on many goo things in life.


Nope. Things you may consider to be "goo things in life" can actually be very bad and make you less than happy and even miserable later on.

Don't be a retard. Actually listen to what people older than you tell you.

Uh, this is problematic in itself. An older person telling you to jump off a bridge is perhaps not worth listening to. As for not being a retard, that requires a process of education and life experiences. One can not simply choose not to be a retard.

When you are renaming a list of files, F2 the first one, then tab to the next file... tab tab tab tab.

Shaving without shaving cream/gel is possible. Do it in the shower (buy a shower mirror), and wait until near the end of your shower, because your pores have to be open... or closed... or whatever they get when they are hot and wet. Rub your face vigorously, then shave gently for the first couple times. Your face will get used to it, and then voila, no more shaving gel.

But if you like shaving with gel/at the sink, buy a tablet of shaving soap, drop it in a mug, and get a shaving brush. It makes you feel like old money. I do this at times when I want to feel like money, before a date, etc. The tablet of soap also lasts eons, as you are technically recycling any soap that you don't put on your face/wash off the brush.

I can vouch for the shampoo only a couple times a week thing. Also helps to fight dandruff. Coal tar shampoo works too, and you feel badass because you wash your hair with rocks. Takes about a month for your hair to get used to it. Only condition after shampooing, as conditioner is basically hair lotion.

If you have trouble sleeping, find a habit you can do before sleeping. I read, which made college reading assignments weird, but it works for me. Writing in a book probably would work as well, as would drawing, etc.

Use liquid soap in the shower, and you won't get soap scum. This may involve buying a luffa. Get over it. They are amazing.

Learn to tie your shoes quickly. Do it.

Don't drink caffeine like I just did right before bed, you sleep like trash. In fact, make it a point to drink it around lunchtime or in the morning, if you must drink it.

Chug your drink, Rinse your mouth with water and chew a gum containing xylitol immediately after drinking/eating sugar, and you will do much better at the dentist. 20 minutes is too long to wait for this one.

Smear shaving cream on your mirror and wipe it off gently. Tada, no more shower fog.

Bring a scrub pad into the shower, and periodically drop it into the bottom and run it around with your foot whilst showering. Multitask++.

<edit>

Oh, and last one. Cooking is fun, cleaning sucks. Clean everything you use to make dinner by hand while making dinner and right after you are done with it. Fresh food is 45,000 (I measured it) times easier to clean than hard crusty food, and should be done preferably while waiting for your food to cool on your dinner plate. This way, it will seem like you only have a couple dishes to clean after you are done eating, and they too will be easy to clean.

Combine the above with: Take dishes from the dish drying rack first, and you have an efficient re-use system. These two things, I use to avoid the dishwasher entirely, with its silly putting dishes away and putting dishes in. Nonsense!

Also, buy one chef-grade knife. It will be expensive. I like cutco knives. It is worth every penny.

Tips I am looking for:

Stopping stupid mold from growing in the shower (red tinted stuff, I live in a moist area)

Washing a shower curtain while in the shower. It is annoying.

How to do laundry efficiently. I always forget about it, and then my crap is wrinkly, and I hate hanging it up/putting it away, which leads to the 'pile of clean laundry' syndrome.

An important one, though not as fancy as most other tricks:

Right after you start working after college, save a stable share of your salary every month and put it into some diversified fund (an index stock fund, e.g. S&P500 ETF would be best, consider tax advantaged plans like the 401k thing in the US). Due to compound interest, $100 saved at the age of 20 is worth several hundred $ saved at the age of 50. If you start saving modest amounts at a young age you will have a comfortable retirement, which company retirement plans and state pensions probably won't provide for our generation due to demography (i.e. babyboomers emptying all that stuff ^^).

Before going out, tap your pockets to check you have everything essential with you. For me, cell phone, keys and wallet. Simple and probably obvious, but forgetting one of these essentials can be problematic.

Also, if you tap bare skin, you have forgotten to wear pants. This can be a problem.

This is sooooooooo true. Couldnt echo the phone thing more.
Also stop making photos all the time for your godforsaken facebook account - it's annoying.

Good tip during winter:

When you get into your car, dont set the fans to maximum until you have driven a while. In most cars, the air will only be heaten once the engine is in a proper temperature - so dont waste energy.

Though if its still freezing, gently turn the fans on otherwise your breath will fog the windows.

Other:

Grinded apple helps on stomach flu.

Adding more once they come up my mind....
