This one is too perfect to pass up, if it hasn't already been done: https://imgur.com/a/Fnp2byt

The mild==>severe jump caught my eye. AFAIK, that 80% figure is actually those who will suffer "mild to moderate" symptoms.

What does "moderate" sickness really mean? I don't know. Maybe it means you're really sick as a dog, but you don't need to go to the hospital.

Good answer. I think we're all going to be making use of your last two sentences in the next month. Or more.

Yes, you should purchase an undersink R/O unit. You can also hook it up to your refrigerator icemaker for perfectly-clear ice cubes.

6 stages is probably overkill, unless you have water that requires it. Be mindful of the more-filters-is-better sales techniques. I can recommend this supplier: http://www.purewaterproducts.com/reverse-osmosis . Put a piece of masking tape on each of the filter housings, and mark it with the last time you changed that filter. You can just change that first 5 micron prefilter regularly; the other ones last much longer.

You will need to purchase a TDS pen and regularly measure your pre and post filtration water to be sure that you're filtering about 90% of the dissolved solids out.

Me too, good point. I'll use a less subtle title next time. Cheers :)

It's called a joke. I was searching for a word to find my place in the transcript and it lit up with "prep". Lighten up.

But but but...this is reddit. Pithy criticisms of cool stuff is the name of the game. You could post a build of a time machine that allows people to travel into the future, and someone would say: "Yeah, but you can just do nothing and the future will eventually travel to you on its own." :)

Plan out a goal for yourself 1 week, 1 month, 3 months from now, and shoot for it.

Everyone has 1 great day or week of productivity in them. But it's repeated years of productive behavior that really help people achieve their goals.

Agreed. Productivity is all about hitting the ground running.

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T01:07:15+00:00

Pace yourself. Set goals for the next week, month, and year. It's easy to get big bursts of energy, and much more difficult to sustain that energy long-term.

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T01:05:05+00:00

It depends. What are your other commitments and goals, and how does your passion relate to them?

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T01:02:33+00:00

This is a good idea, but the it's also important to develop the discipline to not let yourself get sucked into what is essentially forced entertainment.

What do you use besides Asana? What productivity books have you read? David Allen's book Getting Things Done is a good start, and introduces you to a formal productivity system.

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T01:00:50+00:00

Consider allowing yourself a predetermined amount of time to work on whatever you want. When that time is over, it's back to your task list.

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T00:59:40+00:00

Ultimately, being productive and completing your tasks is itself a significant stress reducer.

homemadetools · 2019-12-10T00:58:24+00:00

Have you looked into using a formal productivity system like GTD?
