It seems amazing that some people have to be taught things like this as an adult. There seem to be certain things that some people will "just know", while others need to be explicitly taught. I needed to explicitly learn how to socialise. Nobody teaches you how to do it, but there are many rules you are expected to know and follow. I think a lot of these things aren't explicitly taught because it allows certain people to be superior to others. Finance is a good example of this.

i agree... i noticed a similar thing when i've had my 1-1 with leadership. i felt so good after walking out of those meetings but nothing was really done. it was a number of years later, when i discovered a curriculum that is thought to "life coaches" (and i suspect among other people but it's through this venue that i discovered this), that basically teaches you how to listen. it goes beyond just socializing. these folks in leadership applied the same techniques that were taught to life coaches. nobody teaches this either.

This is one of my favorite Ted talks ever. I have referred so many people to it. It’s amazing what a difference a few extra little details can make in how fast and easy it is to dry my hands.

That said, I’ve tried a bunch of different ways to tie my shoes and never found a big difference between them.

Why would I need to worry about keeping my towels "dryer"? Are you showering twice a day or something?

If you live in a humid environment, your towels can very easily get a bit funky smelling kinda quickly. Not making them as damp/wet can make a big difference.

Mildew is rife. I am blessed/cursed with an exception ability to smell it.

Because wet towels can grow mold/smell, which means I need to wash them more which in turn means I need to replace them more (since even cold washes damage tower's fibers).

There's no downside to getting towels less wet (in particular when you're just flicking off water/pushing it off with your hand/arm for free), but there are upsides. So why not?
