It was fine during calls, but deep work while walking did not work for me. Then I made a rule: I can watch Netflix only while walking on the pad. That worked much better. I now easily reach 10,000 to 12,000 steps a day, and quite often more than 15,000.<\/li>
- Battery-Free Luggage Scale.<\/a> <\/strong>We usually check one or two bags on family trips. I am also the person who really does not want to pay an overweight baggage fee.
A luggage scale helps us check the weight before leaving and see whether there is still room for souvenirs. The problem with my old scale was the battery. Once, it died right before we left for the airport. This one has a tiny hand-powered generator inside. You push the button a few times, and it creates enough power to weigh the bag. No batteries and nothing to charge.<\/li>- Tapo Smart Plugs.<\/a><\/strong> I do not like using the ceiling light in my home office. Instead, I have several lamps around the room. The light feels warmer and makes the office much nicer to work in. The annoying part was walking around and turning every lamp on and off. I connected them to Tapo smart plugs and grouped them together. Now I can control all the lamps with one tap in Apple Home or by saying, \u201cAlexa (or Siri – I have both), turn on the office lights\u201d.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
DIGITAL<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n- Spark Email.<\/a><\/strong> I have several email accounts for different purposes. Connecting all of them again every time I get a new device is annoying. I use Spark on two MacBooks, an iPhone, and an iPad. I connect my accounts once, and Spark syncs them across my devices. When I replace or upgrade a device, I do not have to set everything up again.<\/li>
- The Curious Procrastinator Newsletter.<\/a><\/strong> This is a weekly read about behavior, some of the psychology behind it, and useful technology. It mixes interesting ideas with personal stories and dry, self-sarcastic humor.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
INVISIBLE<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nAnswers are hidden in action, not thinking.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Many times, I do not know what to do. Sometimes I am not even sure what I am doing. But I have learned that I usually do not find the answer by searching or thinking longer. I find it by starting. Works every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
