inShoutout to the cheap hair steamer I bought on a whim
My buddy swore by his $30 one till it shot steam in his face. Worth it though.

inThe red light trick that got me through 5th and Main without getting doored
Hitting that pedestrian button from your saddle is clever, but doesn't it mess with the cross traffic when they finally get a green and you're already halfway through the intersection?

inApp blocker timers beat website blockers for me, tried both for 30 days
...and that's the thing, it's like the friction has to be physical or it doesn't count. I noticed the same pattern with my morning coffee routine. When I just tell myself "I'll only check the news for five minutes" the phone is right there in my hand, it's too easy. But when I have to actually get up and walk to the other room to grab the tablet, I end up just making my coffee instead. It's that extra step of moving your body that makes your brain go "wait, do I really want this right now?" The timer on the app is like a wall you have to climb, but the website blocker is just a sign that says "don't go this way" and you just walk around it. I think people underestimate how much our brains need that physical break to actually change the habit.
