| I'm a lifehacker: If I don't want to do it, it doesn't make me money, and its not a family obligation, I don't do it. How I hack email: Employees and close friends get my email address. No one else should have it. How I hack my phone: Employees, close friends, and attractive girls have it. I never answer an unknown number. I never return a call from a company, they have to send something in writing. How I hack making phone calls to companies: Personal assistant does it. How I hack snail mail: My lawyer picks it up once a week, important stuff I see eventually. Lifehacking isn't about optimizing an annoying task, its about not doing it. |
I would argue that most of us don't have personal assistants and lawyers to deal with our petty problems 24/7.
