LPT- if you want to read more but find yourself doomscrolling in bed: move your phone charger
It might not work for everyone but it really got me reading a lot more.
Doomscrolling was a big problem for me, and not reading was another. I tried putting my phone charger further from my bed on a table opposite from it, and while it was hard at first I finally started to read a whole lot more at night. Another improvement was my morning routine, because it is a few meters away, whenever my alarm goes off, I have to actually get up to turn it off, which makes waking up and starting my day way easier.

LPT: When you solve a recurring problem, leave the instructions where you’ll need them next time.
Once something finally works, it’s tempting to assume you’ll remember the fix. Months later, you may end up troubleshooting it all over again.
Leave a short note near the relevant item: printer instructions inside the paper cabinet, the replacement filter number with the appliance paperwork, or the reset steps beside the device.
Include what went wrong, what fixed it, and the date. If instructions could change, link to the manufacturer’s page too.
Save the next person—including future you—from having to rediscover the answer.

LPT help a slow learner brother out
Seriously, does anyone else feel like they have a processing delay? It’s not about intelligence, it’s just takes me longer to internalize new information. I can read a paragraph, and my eyes move, but my brain doesn’t register the meaning for a beat or two. It feels like I’m playing a game with high ping. Is this common? Or am I just… well, slow? what is the best solution?
