SocialLPT: You can avoid a lot of heated argument by simply listening and not reacting straight away. Always wait for a few seconds, after someone has finished speaking before you start. It shows respect, makes you more likeable and allows you to respond better. Listen, it's the path to success. (self.LifeProTips)

Careers & WorkLPT: Reframe the way you look at your job by acknowledging the "soft perks." The hard perks - passion, high income. Soft perks - autonomy, flexibility, good management, remote work environment, relaxed culture. Your job might be a great job in the long run even if it's not your passion in life. (self.LifeProTips)
SocialLPT: If you have elderly family members living alone, tape a piece of paper with your contact info and any important personal information to their fridge. That way, if paramedics get called, they will have quick access to this info without having to dig around. (self.LifeProTips)

ComputersLPT: Worried about accidentally saying something with your microphone unmuted in a Zoom meeting? You can manually mute it, and when you need to talk, hold down your space bar. It will temporarily unmute you, and when you've finished speaking, let go of it. (self.LifeProTips)

SocialLPT: If you are nervous or scared to go talk to someone, go to an interview, or try something new, ask yourself this, "Will this matter when I'm 90 years old? Will this be a life defining moment?" Probably not. This can help you remember that there is a life post whatever you're stressing about. (self.LifeProTips)
