10 Things We Should Have Known by 20
How many times have you made a discovery and said, “I wish I had known this years ago?” Over at In Over Your Head, they’ve come up with 20 major things they wish they had known at age 20. Here are 10 of them. Can you identify with any of these?
The world is trying to keep you stupid. People who are not educated are easier to lead and easier to get money from.
1.
You should read as much as you can.
2.
If you feel weird about something during a relationship, that’s
usually what you end up breaking up over.
3.
It’s important to have as much contact with older people as
possible.
4.
You will become more conservative over time.
5.
While you are living on the cheap, solve the money problem and
think ahead into the future.
6.
Sleeping well is extremely important.
7.
Get a reminder app for everything so you don’t have to trust
your own brain to remember everything.
8.
Choose something huge to do and set goals to get there.
9.
Don’t try to “fix” anyone. Look for someone who isn’t broken.
10. Don’t become overly reliant on
your tech gadgets
Make things Happen

you need a task manager that’s simple to use and makes it easier to get things
done, then you’ll want to check out this week’s featured website of the week.

Things to brighten the
new year…
Aquion Energy AHI
Technology
Clean, cheap energy
storage for home or office…Most stationary batteries store energy but are made from highly
toxic or flammable materials. The new
AHI battery relies on a salt water based electrolyte to carry the charge. Non-toxic and low cost and it can’t
overheat. It has a long life cycle and
can be scaled for home use of the grid.
Kohler Introduces the
touchless flush kit…
Hands-Free Toilet Tech
Kohler’s
kit converts nearly any toilet into a hands-free model. A proximity sensor mounted under the tank lid
projects a three-inch field. At the
first wave of a hand, the sensor relays a signal to a small battery-powered
motor connected to the flush valve – about $99
Gorilla
Clear Repair Tape
Invisible Duct Tape
Duct tape is a
great tool, just ask Red Green. But it
is ugly. Gorilla Clear looks like
packing tape, but it has extra adhesive and doesn’t yellow with sun. It can invisibly mend a window, cracked head
lamp or shattered phone screen.
