What is something unsexy that you should do?
So recently I came upon a blog post that pointed at this fact: The web is filled with blog posts on life hacks, tips, techniques tools on all sorts of topics; yet we rarely see the humble craft of touch typing mentioned as a item on listicles.
This seemed astonishing since it's something I and the blog author use every day - but it has few proponents.
What other similar unsexy but useful tools - physical, cognitive exist?

Being wrong and making mistakes is an inevitable fact of life, and should not be treated as a personal or character flaw. Permission to make mistakes and amend for them ties our identity to our actions in the future, giving us the freedom to grow and focus on the person that we want to be. Undue attention to the things we once did ties our identity to the past, preventing the person we are now from escaping the person we once were.
