Minimizing the Ordinary Drudgery of Everyday Life.

Daily writing prompt
What are some life hacks that you practice?

According to Wikipedia, a “Life Hack” is any trick, shortcut, skill, or novelty Improvisation that increases productivity and efficiency in all walks of life.

What kind of life hacks have I come up with for minimizing the ordinary drudgery of everyday life?

NONE. I do everything the hard way. In fact, I think I might actually be making many things harder than they really need to be.

Maybe I do have “life hacks” but mine add friction rather than eliminating it.

My number one life hack? Keep a large part of your life totally analog. This way, copy/paste first requires that you manually enter all your hand written data into whatever digital platforms you inevitable end up being forced to use.

Another excellent hack? When you do use technology, use as many single function devices as possible. This way, you have to carry your own personal data-center around with you everywhere you go, along with chargers for everything. As a bonus, you get the same manual data entry you loved from hack number one.
