Okay so I’m not OEM. I’m just an 18 year old. I’ve done a lot of shit. I’m pretty productive. Anyway, here are my favorite 8 life hacks for saving time. Hope they help you.<br><br>*If you can’t sleep, don’t stay awake, go do shit you need to do for the next day.*<br><br>*Don’t bake your own homemade cookies if you are in a crunch and need cookies. Buy them. It takes a lot less time.*<br><br>*Don’t reorganize your clothes by color and type - every bit of time you spend on shit like that is wasted.*<br><br>*If you’re 60 pounds overweight or whatever, stop trying to get fit and go to the gym to improve your life. You’ll burn yourself out quickly. Just start drinking water and walking.*<br><br>*When you’re at the store or wherever, and you need to go to the next store 15 minutes later and you have to re-park, don’t. Walk to where you need to go. It’s EASIER to get to where you need to go by walking instead of driving your ass around the parking lot. You might skip two parking spots to get to the next store but you’d have to go halfway around the parking lot to get there, and you’d have to drive around for 3 minutes looking for a spot and then walk to the store. Don’t be lazy, walk to the other places you need to go.*<br><br>*Don’t spend more money if you don’t have to. Don’t spend time if you don’t have to. Save yourself money - every bit of money you can save is a little bit of freedom you have saved for yourself.*<br><br>*If you’re an artist, stop trying to draw realistic. EASIER TO SET GOALS. I was once strictly a realistic artist for years because I spent so much time honing my hyperrealistic drawing skills. But then one day I realized that if I’m trying to get realistic but I’m not good enough to do realistic I need to spend more time to get realistic. If you are an artist, I would highly recommend digital painting. It’s so much easier, and you can create work so much faster. Stop wasting time on shitty mediums and skillsets and waste time getting good at shitty mediums and skillsets. Learn to set goals for yourself and measure your progress regularly.*<br><br>*If you’re a musician, learn to play an instrument you can play by yourself. Or join a band. Learning to play an instrument is going to take a lot of time so make yourself a reward - you get to play your instrument. And stop trying to be original. If you’re original you’ll only get more attention by copying popular artists and then showcasing your unique style when you’ve got people’s attention. Don’t burn yourself out trying to be unique and not gaining any progress. My personal favorite instrument to play is the harmonica - it’s so portable - every bit of time is more time you have to improve yourself. Don’t waste it*
