LPT : Keep a Diary It’s really improved my memory and helped me focus. Reading back I can easily picture the day and any events are noted, keeping track of things is much easier, and it’s nice to read, like a story about yourself. Plus days when I did nothing motivate me to spend my time more wisely. submitted by /u/TheEyeOfLight

LPT: Keep a few sand bags in your vehicle if you live in a snowy climate. The extra weight over the tires helps with traction in general. Ideally you want them placed directly over the axle/tires depending on whether your vehicle is 2 wheel drive or 4/all wheel drive. If you do get stuck, you can cut them open and use the sand inside for extra traction. A few scoops in front or behind the tires really helps if your ti…
