Make use of .bashrc (I'm sure other shells have similar). For projects I'll be working on for a while, rather than CD into a nested directory, activate a virtual envirnoment etc. I have simple bash shortcuts that perform all the steps. Also for SSHing and many other common task. On this note, (probably doesn't apply to many here) but if you aren't lighting fast with a terminal and are dragging files around etc. you are usually doing work in a sub-optimal way. Learning bash (or some shell, I don't consider I'm an expert) a little more all the time really pays off. Likewise VIM.
