Repositories are awesome, and we should have more of them.

I recently completed BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits, and it's a pretty lightweight way to install new habits (recommended). However, I realized I could use a better repository of useful habits.

So, please use this thread to suggest habits that you've found useful. Bonus points for evidence/anecdata of usefulness.

Obviously, 1 habit per comment makes upvotes a clearer signal of collective approval.

speed up all informative video/audio. You will get used to it (I even speed up fiction audio a bit now - it feels too slow). Free life extension.

How do you go about this? On Youtube I signed up for the htlm5 trial and that allows only some videos to be played back at different speeds, and I have no idea how they decide which videos.

There is a plugin, at least for mac to speed up all of them. You can also download the vids and use vlc or something locally.

Coursera is excellent for it - any Coursera courses have playback speed options. I usually go x1.5 for sciences and x2 for humanities(since humanities tend to have lower information density), but you can vary that a little depending on the prof's talking speed and the content of the lecture you're watching. I know Coursera isn't the only source of informational video, but it's a good starting point.
