What is your favorite life hack?
The last of list ideas brazenly stolen from @sheeraz. I Americanized 'favourite.' It's a long list, there will be a lot of repeats from other posts/lists.
1. Be genuinely positive and optimistic
This has to be genuine and might require self-training.

This brings a freedom that others cannot image.

4. Give your future-self maximum optionality
This means saving for the future and giving your best effort in all endeavors, you have no idea where opportunity could come from.
