Pro Tips for life

1. Want to be more charismatic? Don't try to be more impressive

or entertaining, focus on being a very good engaged listener.
Engaged listeners make eye-contact, ask questions to bring the
speaker out, and don't interject with their own stories or change
the conversation to be about them.

2. netsh wlan show profile "insert network name" key=clear

Enter this command in cmd to see the password of any wifi

network if it is connected to that computer

3. Keep ur mouth shut and don’t give unnecessary information

(very useful)

4. When you sign up for anything online, put the website’s name
as your middle name. That way when you receive spam/advert
emails, you will know who sold your info.

5. When you don't have all the facts, try to give people the most
generous reason you can for their behaviour. Annoyingly slow
driver? Maybe it's a mom with a birthday cake in the back. This
mindset will gradually make you less reactive, more
compassionate and more forgiving of your own bad days.
6. When a friend is upset, ask them one simple question before
saying anything else: 'Do you want to talk about it or do you
want to be distracted from it?' or ‘Do you wanna fixing,bitching
or distracted from it?’

7. If someone slights/insults you publicly during a meeting,

pretend like you didn't hear them the first time and politely ask
them to repeat themself. They'll either double-down & repeat the
insult again, making them look rude & unprofessional. Or they'll
realize their mistake & apologize to you.

8. Instead of feeling that you've blown the day and thinking, "I'll
get back on track tomorrow," try thinking of each day as a set of
four quarters: morning, midday, afternoon, evening. If you blow
one quarter, you get back on track for the next quarter. Fail
small, not big.

9. When someone gets interrupted while telling a story, invite them

to continue after the interruption is over with an, “as you were
saying about (x)” or something similar. It can be uncomfortable
for the person to start back up and this makes them feel like you
valued their words.

10. If you’re stuck on an annoying call, put your phone on

airplane mode instead of just hanging up. The other person will
see “call failed” instead of “call ended”. And do this when you
are speaking, this makes it more convincing.
11. X percent of Y is equal to Y percent of X. So, if you want
to find out what 7% of 50 is, you could instead find out what
50% of 7 is, which is 3.5. This means that 7% of 50 is also equal
to 3.5.

12. If you are asked to create an account in order to continue

browsing a website, hit Ctrl+Shift+C and click on the dim area,
this would select it and you can delete it with DEL key, hit F12
again and resume your browsing.

13. If you need somewhere to work/relax with friendly staff,

nice AC, plenty of seating, free WiFi, and available all across
the US, you’re in luck! There are more public libraries in the US
than there are Starbucks or McDonalds! And you’re under no
obligation to buy anything to sit there

14. Keep a separate master resume with ALL previous work

experience. When sending out a resume for application,
duplicate the file and remove anything that may be irrelevant to
the position. You never know when some past experience might
become relevant again, and you don’t want to forget about it.

15. Recording narration? When you make a mistake, clap your

hands. Later, when you're editing the audio, the claps will show
up as spikes on the waveform and make editing much easier

16. If someone offers you something you want, take it. Don’t
decline every kind offer out of politeness.

17. As a manager, give praise in public and discipline in

private.
18. When someone shares something about themselves, don't
interrupt with a relatable story about yourself. Just listen and
even ask questions about it.

19. If you're unable to fall asleep at night instead of closing

your eyes do the opposite. Keep your eyes wide open. You'll
feel drowsy and will automatically close your eyes. If your mind
starts racing again open your eyes again. Keep repeating this
process and you'll fall asleep quickly.

20. If you really want to connect with someone, take them for
a long, scenic walk. Not being face to face takes some of the
pressure off, and the scenery puts you in the right mood to open
up.

21. Ever need another email address but don't want to register
an whole new account? If you add a "+1", "+2", etc. before the
@ in your email address, websites will register it as a new
email, but still send mail to your normal address. Makes
organizing accounts or endless free trials much easier!

22. Dreading something? Avoidance makes it 100x harder

because it completely disempowers you. When the only way out
is through, turn and face the discomfort, take a deep breath and
walk towards it. This is neuroscience-backed.
