LPT: Stop comparing yourself to others on social media—it’s not real life! Hey ladies (and everyone else too!), I just wanted to share something that’s really helped me with my self-love journey.

It’s so easy to compare yourself and feel like you’re not enough. But here’s the thi…

LPT: If you’re stuck, take one small step—write one sentence, make one phone call, or try one thing. Breaking tasks down into tiny actions helps overcome procrastination and writer’s block.

LPT: App tracking Never allow social media apps to track your activity across other apps, so you will less likely to not be spending money on unnecessary things advertised to you. Might be useful to allow it for clothing stores apps though. submitted by /u/meatinyourmouth225

LPT: Start your morning with a “5-minute reset” before checking your phone. Hey everyone! I used to wake up and immediately grab my phone, scrolling through emails, social media, or texts. It always left me feeling stressed before I even got out of bed. Recently, I started doing a “5-minute reset” every morning instead. So i sit on the bed and take five deep breaths, then i think about 3 things that i am grateful and i …

LPT Tip for Saving Money on Groceries If you’re trying to save money on groceries, shop in the evening! Most grocery stores discount items like bakery goods, deli meats, and even fresh produce later in the day because they need to clear out stock. I’ve saved so much just by going after 7 PM. Plus, it’s usually less crowded, which is a win-win!” submitted by /u/Sufficient-Tree…

LPT: When you’re feeling down, journal. Journaling pen-to-paper is like a melting pot of meditation, reflection, and exploration. Personally, it’s my cornerstone habit. The way I feel after a meaningful journaling session is like the way I feel after a massage: rejuvenated. It’s particularly those moments of melancholy when journaling is most useful – I dig, find the misalignment, an…

LPT: If you don’t want to start a task, count down from 6 and just do it. The 6-second rule is surprisingly effective for getting yourself moving when you’re stuck. It’s simple: count down, and by the time you reach zero, you’ll find that you’ve already started the task. Not sure why 6 works, but it’s been a game-changer for tackling those small, dreaded chores. submitted by /u/EvelynTaylor62

LPT: Skip pharmacy automated prompts and talk to a person. Hate your pharmacies automated “help” prompts? When the computer asks “how can I help you today?” Say “cancel prescription”, it will likely then connect you to a person. They probably won’t know what you said to the computer, so just ask your question. YMMV but it works on the prompts for one of the major us chains. submitted by /u/ilikes…

LPT: Avoid soggy pizza by ordering it “well done” Many pizza places tend to underbake their pizzas, resulting in a soggy crust. Ordering your pizza “well done” usually ensures a fully baked, crispy crust. “Well done” signals to the pizza makers to leave it in the oven a bit longer, giving the crust time to crisp up and the cheese to fully melt. Especially useful If you’re ordering from a place …

LPT Request: Can I negotiate salary after it is stated in the offer letter? I was just offered my first full-time job as an entry-level sales engineer. The cover letter states that “The starting salary will be $5400 per month.” And explains that there is a $500, $1000, or $1500 per month bonus at the end of the year, depending on how well the company grows.

For example, bringing photos or interactive items (like shots of maple syrup) can…

LPT: If something takes less than 15 minutes, do it right away I’m lazy by nature, but I’ve found that if I tackle tasks that take less than 15 minutes immediately, it helps me stay productive and keep my space cleaner.

LPT: if you have a snoring problem you may want to consider tape. Using a small strip of tape to tape your upper and lower lip together, leaving a small gap open for proper breathing, can significantly reduce snoring. This doesn’t apply to sleep apnea. If you have sleep apnea seek medical advice from a professional. From anecdotal experience with several family members that snore, this trick has proven effecti…

LPT: If you’re in a rush to shower, just stick your head in. Simply putting your head in the shower stops the outside of the shower from feeling much colder than the inside, and keeps you mostly dry, allowing you to easily towel off and leave the bathroom after just a minute or two of hair and face washing. It leaves you feeling mostly clean as well. Of course, you shouldn’t do this regularly, but if you …
