Here are this week’s Life Pro Tips.
1. If you are asked to create an account in order to continue browsing a website, hit F12 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.
This only affects the display on your browser, but it’s a simple way to bypass the infuriating “create an account” or GTFO situation on websites when you just need quick information.
2. Instead of saying ‘Sorry this is late’, say ‘Thanks for your patience.’ Using positive language in a negative situation can have a big impact on how you’re remembered.
3. When cooking frozen toaster strudels set your toaster to the lowest heat setting and toast them twice.
This ensures a warm center and doesn’t burn the exterior.
4. When Netflix says “not available” for something you’ve downloaded because you’re outside the US, turn on airplane mode to watch it anyway.
5. ‘Swallow the frog’: Do the thing you are least looking forward to first and the whole day will seem brighter and easier.
