Merlin has talked about this before, and I don’t have much to add. I’ve long since removed Lifehacker from my feeds, but every now and then swing by to see if I’m missing anything.
By and large, I’m not: just posts about programs to make you more productive or make your desktop prettier or “streamline” your chores.
But let me say this: if the amount of time it takes you to fold your laundry or hang your shirts and pants is the only place you can find to trim, you’re doing all right. And if you think that those extra seconds are the only thing holding you back from being better at whatever it is you do, you might need to step back and examine things more closely.

Since I send my laundry out like a bourgeois pig, can I parlay that particular tip into the nest “4 Hour Workweek”?
