Pracitcal Betterments is a collection of one-off actions that improve your life continuously.

For the past year I've been collecting what I was calling "life hacks", but are really their own thing — that I've decided to call practical betterments. Partly because life hack is sort of vague and can mean anything from "make your bed every morning", to "use toilet rolls to organize your wires" — but mostly because the domain practicalbetterments.com was available.

I didn't originally intend for this collection to be a website — but after boring everyone I know with them, it seemed important for my personal life to have an outlet.

I've collected over a hundred of these — and am trying to write one up every morning. You can learn more about them on the about page or jump right in and get a taste for the kind of thing it is with these:

• Cut the end off your toothbrush
• Adjust the temperature of your boiler
• Switch your phone to dark mode

I hope you enjoy them, let me know what you think!
