But what about the smaller stuff that adds up? A recent AskReddit thread asked people what those lesser known bad habits that are ruining our lives, and I have to say I’m pretty guilty of a lot of these.

Paid good money to hear something I should have already known. She asked me to think about all the people that have embarrassed themselves in front of me and that I only had 1 minute to come up with them. I was maybe able to say 2. She said that’s exactly what other people feel about my embarrassments. They probably don’t even remember or even really care. Same with everything, not just embarrassing stuff.

It is just there, too close, too easy to grab and check out something – anything. Better than just studying, working or doing anything productive. Worst invention ever for procastinators like me.

I have a friend who just never seems to have anything nice to say when I see them, always has a new disaster in their life to complain about. I know first hand that constant bitching about everything is addicting and after some time I started to annoy myself and had to make some big changes.

You really can’t (unless you’re one of the ~3% of the population with the gene for it). Chronic sleep deprivation can cause serious issues with your focus, mood, etc. and you might not even notice it if you’ve just gotten used to not getting enough sleep.

Makes life more interesting, doesn’t it? Then suddenly you’re speaking in a British accent for years to your wife who you told you were a millionaire and the tax man is coming tomorrow and the web of lies will shatter and fall.

That lasted about 3 seconds before he turned to me and said , ‘ it’s all bullshit, and we aren’t discussing it, nor should you ask anyone else, you’re not being paid to gossip and neither am I … so let’s both just get back to work.

He said that quietly and with a grin, so there was no ruffled feathers, but he was right. And I can’t tell you how much I appreciated that…

All these years later and now I’m the creative director… and I still follow that advice. Don’t participate in office gossip… steer clear of people that do… do the work. Be nice to everyone.

Half of it I either forget about or don’t care about after a few months. Doesn’t help when companies spam deals at you making it more tempting to buy when it’s “cheaper”.

Many lose their foot.

If losing a limb because you can’t stop consuming isn’t a sign of addiction, than the word is in serious need of reevaluation.

And whenever they won money, they’d just spend it on more tickets. They’re not worth it.

Even when comparing it to things which are traditionally seen as much more dangerous at a glance like some drugs and alcohol.

Anger literally eats people alive, and spits them out… changed.

I’ve had to read this book called “Approval Addiction” because I have a bad habit of wanting to feel useful to the point of never saying no and overloading myself with work. Just because you want people to know that you’re a decent human being doesn’t mean you have to put yourself out constantly to prove it. The people who matter most will know without you doing favors for them.

I’ve since changed to just drinking normal water, and I feel so much better than when I was drinking cola regularly.

(also after I lost that first 10lbs, I started walking a lot more than taking the bus – I lost another 10 pounds by making that pretty easy change, too)

I can’t remember where I picked it from but a great rule I follow is “never stay up late to do something you wouldn’t get up early for”. There are very few things I would get up early for.
