LPT: To get the most muscle/sculpting for your buck at the gym, focus on compound lifts—the exercises that recruit multiple muscle groups. You only really need overhead press, bench press, squat, deadlift, rows, dips, and maybe pull-ups. These will give you most workout for the energy you put forth.

LPT: Dear novice hobbyists, not only is it okay to copy* from the more experienced, it is encouraged. It is the most enjoyable way to learn while producing end results you can be proud of.

LPT: Train yourself to immediately start recognizing every instance of care shown towards you. Make this a priority, and you'll honestly feel a bit guilty over the sheer abundance of love you were too caught up in your own head to notice. It was always there. Sincerely appreciate it.

LPT: try not to be toxic or rude to anyone in online games or forums this week. As there are alot of people who have no family and want to distract themselves from this. Instead be kind and thoughtful. (This goes all year around aswell)

LPT: Take a few days to familiarize yourself with a spreadsheet app (e.g., MS Excel, Google Sheets). The uses are endless for school, the office, life, and other people will think you're a wizard.

LPT: To heat yourself during the winter, have a hot water bottle on your legs while sitting down doing your work, it will conduct through the rest of your body and will heat you almost the same as a heater would do at a small fraction of the cost. Energy prices are far too much, be safe this winter

LPT: If you always listen to music or the radio when you drive, make sure to do occasional drives without sound to listen to your car for a few minutes. There could be something quietly scraping, grinding, or dragging and you would never hear it until it’s too loud and too late.

LPT: If a small business gives you discounts or free item/service to resolve a genuine issue you had with them, don't mention it in public reviews/forums, people will try to take advantage, they'll use your review as precedent and an excuse to be a shitty customer
