Every time I unlock my phone, I unintentionally go down a rabbit hole of apps & notifications, forgetting why I picked it up in the first place.
I’m today years old learning that I can access spotlight search on my phone’s lock-screen (which means i can access apps and call people without actually having to unlock my phone)
- STEP 1: Swipe down while on your lock screen
- STEP 2: Type name of app you want to open or enter contact name

i had no idea this was an option. I switched it on and began my journey of holding my phone at a greater distance from my eyes after getting many alerts.
iPhone users can find it under the Screen Time tab in settings.

So many cool things you can do there! Just made one to turn on grayscale in the evening. previously: set morning work alarms depending on where I’m sleeping (mine vs bf’s apt), auto low power mode, shortcut to search

I’m lazy but I also like to have my files organized. Whether it’s notes, photos, or drafts of projects I’m working on. Labeling my stuff with this date format let’s me create files and put them wherever with minimal effort, and I can easily recall stuff by just sorting them by name. And I don’t have to rely on a janky filter like “created by” “ modified by” etc.

Bonus tip: my friend likes to simplify it even further, he prefers YYMMDD (240316). Typically we steer clear from dots (24.03.16) or dashes (24-03-16) for formatting/compatibility issues when moving/sharing files around.

Jeans give me a sense of firmness. Sometimes when I’m “too” comfortable, jeans give me a sense of structure where I feel less like a slob. Discomfort in general. Pushing yourself. Expanding your threshold, stamina, skills.
