What's one small thing you've done to make your life easier?

For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they're much easier to grab.

When I was in college I had zero knowledge of how to cook so I relied on what my mom packed me and takeaways.

I decided to learn how to make basic stuff, like pasta, eggs, baked potatoes, etc and it saved me tons of money.

I'm not a good cook by a long shot but I can feed myself and to this day I enjoy some quality time in the kitchen.

This also makes you good dating material, for anyone out there who could use the advice 😉

Pretty great 2nd date in my experience, not a great idea for an initial date unless you know the person ahead of time. But can pretty quickly reveal if they can cook too!

It's crazy to me how people dont know this.

Cooking saves so much money, its incredible.

Try and find a cheap deal for a meal service like hellofresh or blue apron or any other service. I didn't want to, but my spouse did. I've learned some good techniques and used ingredients I would not normally use. Don't sign up long term, just get a box or two or whatever and cancel. Once you've learned your lesson you can extrapolate that.
