TikToker "Sidneyraz" Shares New Hacks He Wished He Had Known Before His 30s So You Can Live Your Best Life Now
Sidneyraz continues to share new life hacks regularly on his popular TikTok account.
Life is not black and white, but luckily we are an adroit species. If we don't know exactly how to do something right, we will always find an alternative. That wisdom is passed from generation to generation. However, that does not mean we are not interested in finding the proper, easier way. Although we think that some daily tasks are ordinary or absurd, we still feel ashamed to ask someone for advice. But can you imagine how much easier your life would be and how much time you would save if you had known some clever tricks that could help you with everyday challenges that used to trouble you? Well, that is specifically what James Clear, author of "Atomic Habits," emphasizes: "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." He believes that life is a combination of learning from your own mistakes and those of others, so in the future, you can be smarter and wiser. Therefore, he decided to share his findings online with others, just in case they didn’t know them before. His intention is to make their lives easier with his discovered life hacks or at least to make them laugh with his witty viral videos. He named it "Things I Didn’t Know Before I Was in My 30s," and his fans adore him. We have collected his latest tricks and findings, but you can also visit James Clear's website and become one of his devoted followers.
