This super hero story is brought to you by Doritos. Literally.
Just a normal alarm timer app.
Forget appointments? Lose track of time when doing things? I set timers. Most apps allow recurring timers. For example I got one going off twice each day to remind me to drink some water.
I gotta leave in 40 minutes so I got some time to read or whatever. If I don’t set an alarm I’ll lose track of time and be late. Easy fix.
As far as habits go.
Be honest with myself about my shortcomings. If I start gaming at 9 pm it won’t be half an hour. Be honest. Go to bed now or accept it will be midnight.
No, I won’t just do that later. I will forget. Write it down or do it now. Else I will forget.
That’s awesome and really shows we can learn skills which dont align with our natural tendencies.
Also I find it hilarious and a bit scary how accurate this was then.
You are immature for your age and try to now grow up. You think you are smarter than most people, which you are, but not by as much as you think. For that reason you struggle with impostor syndrome and hold yourself back from achieving the career you actually want. But still you manage to come off as condescending to people around you.
Please don’t take this seriously.
I do make more deliberate choices on what I expose myself to content and general life experience wise. Because when it comes down to it I don’t have a say in where the next hyperfixation takes me.
For example I am staying the hell away from trading card games because I enjoy being able to pay my rent.
Yeah this happens to me a lot.
If you don’t want to get sucked into Youtube anymore then I recommend Unhook. It’s a firefox and Chrome (i think) extension which let’s you disable video recommendations in any form and redirects you from the start or trending page to your sub feed. So you only ever see videos you subscribed to if you want that. It’s highly customizable too.
I combine this with hiding all shorts. That way I am more on control of how long I’ll be on YouTube which is nice.
I’m the age of outrage laziness can become virtue.
