we started I wanted to say thank you to everyone that’s downloaded the ultimate Life Hacks guide if you haven’t got yours Chris will x-dot com slash life hacks over 200 ways that you can upgrade your life and it covers everything we’ve done up to now. So this is kind of like the second season second season of life Hacks lifehacks a new beginning a new frontier so hot potato Johnny You are up what have you got for us first So mine are split between physical and digital The Ogs will know yeah if you get that joke congratulations congratulations, which one to pick that’s the thing that’s the question here’s a really basic it’s not anything I’ve got none yeah what’s something I’ve been doing recently so I re-read atomic habits we all like atomic habits Don’t we. Not read it yet I’m reading two books currently traffic secrets and atomic habits what a set what a setup so I basically have. I mean this is a not not that relevant, but I’ve started eating breakfast so while things are cooking in the pan in the morning. I basically do all of the like chores in the kitchen.

So I Like Take The Bin Out

empty the dishwasher wipe the surfaces and then I can’t forget it’s happened and you go back in the kitchen you’re like ah This is clean. This is tidy, so it’s just because although like previously the first couple of times I was doing was just like standing looking at the pan like waiting for it to warm up so just using dead time like that and there was another example, um a good example of that from an old one is when. You were flossing your teeth in the shower Yusef Yeah exactly exactly so that sort of thing. I mean um you know when it’s a really good life hack when separately. We haven’t talked about it, but yeah, I do the same thing as you Yeah I have on a morning.

My Housemate Makes Fun Of Me Because

we’ve been getting up at similar sort of times during lockdown and there’s this weird ballet that I do around the kitchen when I’m making my food because I’m prepping my whole food for the whole day and I’m also washing up and I’ll wash all of his stuff because I don’t mind and I’ve got my podcast on but I’m like going like Cooker Sink Pirouette Microwave Freezer Yeah It’s like this elaborate dance thing where are you going like 50s like mary poppins music playing in the background. It’s ben. Shapiro‘s podcast usually which actually makes you move a lot quicker what was the other? What was the other example have you seen the Alan partridge thing where he’s talking about how to wash your hands and train toilet without touching anything no so he’s like elbow Elbow soap soap tissue tissue down kick the door open done that’s how my morning feels well. I mean it’s so much better like why wouldn’t you use the time when you’re cooking your food to do other things What you can do just look at your food cooking There’s a huge number, how do people do that oh it wasted time there’s so much opportunity for that where like we so we discussed this with a process engineer on one of our podcasts called efficiency is everything recently and he talks very much about like there’s just hundreds of opportunities during the day where you set a process in motion that requires time, but no further input until it’s done such as breakfast in the pan and then you just go do all the stuff in between set another process in motion and it’s like it’s all about finding what are those initial trigger processes that you can just set going and so he talks about. I think we we discussed this on probably one of the last ones about when Henry Ford gave his presentation of turning on putting on a suit or washing your is it washing your balls first in the shower washing your head first in the shower you wash your hair first and it drips down yeah the henry Ford example is great so he was talking about how he puts on a suit and he does his shirt from the bottom up and then ties his tie because his hands are moving bottom up to the neck.

Does The Tie Puts That Round Does

the thing you know so yeah? I like that have you got any other do you see had another example of what you do so it’s just so like in in that process. I will like take the bin out what like empty the dishwasher reload. The dishwasher with anything that needs to be put in fill up three of these and put them in the fridge. So then I just hap because like a big resistant, I don’t really like drinking water and that sounds ridiculous, but like left to my own devices. I just won’t drink water, but if there’s like chilled bottles in the fridge ready to go much so much easier so like often, I’ll go back to the kitchen at like 11 a.

M Forget That Ive Done All Of This.

I might yes kitchens the kitchens are coming clean in here I’ve got chilled water and everything like this This is brilliant becca someone the cleaning fairies have been again man it’s so much so much of the stuff that you can do can be like future. Johnny will thank past Johnny that he hasn’t even remembered. I remember one of. My housemates, his girlfriend used to drunk clean so she’d come in from a night out and clean the whole house drunk because she said the next day.

It Was Like She Hadnt Done

it that’s clever that’s really good Yeah I really like that my my flatmate did that when she first tried Jack 3d remember that pre-workout that got banned um. She she was someone who was no stranger to class a drugs as well and I was. I had some and she was like what’s that can I try some and I was like yeah fine. I went to the gym came back and the house was spotless and she was like I’ve had a really good day, so I’ve been really productive. I’ve cleaned the whole house.

Im Like Okay Have You Got Any Idea

why that might be the case No I just feel like. full of energy, I don’t know what’s going on brilliant all the time for some reason A little bit sweaty, a little bit clammy but yeah yeah Jaws, jaws going okay so do your chores whilst cooking breakfast and make use of dead time yousef what you got so mine is coffee bags. I have discovered this recently by Johnny’s really upset. This is probably a very like absolute philistine thing to say for coffee aficionados like you’ve got some coffee. You just put it in the cup you pop through it.

Its Really Quick Um No So It.

It’s the same niceness as proper coffee because it is just in a like a bag that’s more permeable than a tea bag. Only discovered this by accident because a girlfriend went to buy some coffee knew that I didn’t have all the right coffee kit so she bought some coffee. Bags turned up and realized that they were Decaf got really upset and was like you just keep them. I’m not touching those horrible things brilliant.

So Now Ive Got A Box

of coffee bags in the house is that what you were drinking in your big cup. This was actually a mushroom cocoa. I think on your recommendation Johnny second hand. I got it because of hearing you talk about it on previous life hacks and now I had some as a filtered stuff like that makes me feel uneasy because it’s like mike without me knowing has listened to something. I said a while ago has gone out and done something and now you’ve got it in a mug.

Its A Relaxant.

Though you are aware of that it’s like one. One is the chaga and one is cordyceps. So this morning. I was training my cordyceps and.

Then I Had Some Of The Mushrooms,

then you had a chaga all right what’s your what’s I could see in your facial expression that you had a criticism about coffee bags Johnny what’s your so so one of mine is um Becca bought me a temperature kettle Now you might think surely all kettles do temperature. How is this different. it’s a it’s a kettle that you set the temperature and it it boils up to a certain it’s got a special spout on it that allows you to pour water into a filter funnel where I’ve been using the 466 method to brew coffee so it’s quite very manual very slow but delicious so just contrast that too so that was one of my life hacks contrast that to Yusuf’s coffee bags don’t keep on you’ve got the full spectrum wow what’s what is the 466 method. You might as well go again um it’s so you you.

I Mean Ill Probably Get Some Of

this wrong, but it’s. I think Japanese coffee prep method where you weigh out 20 grams of beans grind them put them into a filter paper um beans and then you pour an initial amount of water on it. Then you wait for the bloom, which is the the carbon dioxide being released from the beans and then you wait and then you pour more water weight pour more water in a four six six pattern so rather than be going through like the full crap so it’s it’s very it’s it’s like a um a real craft process to make a coffee isn’t it amazing the the branding of Japan like.
