- Instead of drinking one cup of coffee every morning (thus making light caffeination your new normal and loosing any long term productivity gains), avoid caffeine during the week and drink as many expressos as you want on Saturdays and Sundays as you work on your exciting weekend project.

- Instead of having a dozen semi-close friends, get to know hundreds of people casually through meetups and via the internet, and make a small group of really close friends you see many times a week.
