We always hear about people’s bad habits but what’s your good habit? Mine is whenever I have a meal that has vegetables in it I always eat that first. That way I get it out if the way then I can enjoy the rest of meal without having to worry about eating it.
Telling my kids I love them, regularly and randomly. My parents only told me they loved me after yelling at me (or worse) and it took a long time for me to understand the toll that’s had on my relationships with them.
Out of the 31 meals i eat per week, i usually cook at least 27…most of those from scratch.
You’re eating 4-5 meals a day? Bodybuilder?
Sounds like your kids are gonna be alright!
Heh. Yeah I guess I did my math wrong there hahaha. Let’s quietly subtract 10 and forget it ever happened…
Never drinking too much. I have self control when it comes to that, but not food lol.
I tell people directly when I appreciate something they did.
I like to donate and purge things that I think have lost all levels of relevancy to me. If I look at something, think when the last time I’ve used it was, if I feel anything at all for it anymore and if I foresee any future use for it and base my decision on that. It has helped greatly in making my apartment look entirely manageable and not be a hoarder.
I would have to trash my apartment around to make it messy as if it was a hoarder’s place, but the most mess I ever get is maybe I forgot to grab a plate or two or maybe some things are left behind. Things that take no time at all to deal with while still maintaining a decent apartment.
Washing hands…
Its impossible to not wash the hand after something dirty or when going from outside to inside.
Exercising regularly! I do it because it gives me a kind of rush, but I realize that it’s also making me healthier in the long run (hehe)
Assuming that I’ll forget something and setting a reminder of some type to make sure that I don’t forget.
I do this often
Following my weightlifting routine (tactical barbell). I’m on a 38 week streak and I don’t have the words to describe how much better I feel, and how much it has improved my life over the last few years. If anyone is even remotely interested in getting in shape, it’s so worth it
If I make a typo, rather than autocorrecting or deleting a few characters I delete the whole word and re-type it from the beginning. That way the correct spelling gets into my muscle memory and I’m much less likely to make the typo again in the future.
If I make a typo, I try to keep as many of the letters on the page as possible - no need to throw them away and use new ones. Waste not.
One of us! Also for anyone who doesn’t know, you can do ctrl+backspace to instantly delete the entire word. It’s usually faster to do that and retype it than it is to hit backspace precisely enough times to get to the typo!
This. Been doing this for decades and it’s great. Still fuck certain words up for some reason tho. Separate, people, etc.
“ie” vs “ei” are my kryptonite. e.g. receive, sieve.
I after E except after C and when sounded like A as in neighbor and weigh (and a thousand other exceptions)
and a thousand other exception
👆 🤦♂️ 🤣
Or whenever I please, as in feisty and seize!
Yup, I get seize backwards a lot cause it violates the i before e except after c rule.
Maybe if you think real hard about a person going into a seizure and flinging themselves backwards, it’ll pop back in your head the next time you go to type “seize” and help you remember.
I mean I know how it’s spelled, I recognize it when I get it backwards, it’s just muscle-memory fucks me about half the time.
I always undo my laces before taking off my trainers.
No matter how tired I am, I always take a few seconds to untie my laces, because if I don’t I’ll wear through the heels and then I’ll need new trainers.
I couldn’t think of any good habits at all, but I do this too, so thanks. That’s my best habit too.
Blocking people online who I find annoying
I like you :)
Typo :p
I also do shadow-blocking too. If I see someone who’s going to be an antagonizing prick for no reason to someone, good reason to block just to save you the future trouble if they decide to target you. There are just a lot of people online who treat it as a hobby to go around shitting all over anything and everyone.
Not looking at my keyboard when typing. I switched to colemak last year, and since then I’ve managed to get into the habit of typing without looking. Which is very useful now that my keyboard stickers are starting to come off so it shows some letters twice and others not at all 😅
Write down sudden ideas for memes and other stuff even when trying to fall asleep.
Make my bed every morning.
Brush my teeth no matter how tired or sad I get.
Genuinely asking, why is making your bed a good thing?
Makes you feel tidy, visually less cluttered, it’s a great small action to do to warm up your mind in the morning that won’t aggravate you to stir your brain awake. It just feels good to have a nice made and good looking bed when looking at the room and coming home for the day. It’s one little aspect of feeling like your better organized. For me it works.
Interesting. For me it kind of doea the opposite. I get it about keeping the room tidy, and I agree with that. The bed though, it just makes me feel unwelcomed. Like you’re only supposed to look, no touching allowed. Whereas my bed feels inviting and welcoming.
I do yoga twice a week
