Causal Rules

Exercise
Take a nap
Eat something healthy and drink water every two hours you’re awake
Good sooner is better than perfect later – the first does not preclude the second
Big or persistent problems should be broken into smaller problems
Any thing you want to remember should be written down
To learn a thing – do it. To master a thing – do it for many years
You have no will-power. Bribe, incentivize and trick yourself
Take your hobbies seriously
Balance is more important than any individual success or failure

Use meta-research to prevent covering material you already know or material you are not ready for
Find ways to practice new skills so that the outcome will not be ambiguous
Knowledge and skill should be reviewed only often enough to keep them fresh
Make the decision to move into research consciously, and be aware that learning what is established in a field will almost always be faster than original research
A single exercise should employ as many new skills as possible with out becoming ambiguous and review as many old skills as possible that need refreshing

Be a patient listener (it is this, not fast talking, that gets a con-man his coups).
Never look bored.
Wait for the other person to reveal any political opinions, then agree with them.
Let the other person reveal religious views, then have the same ones.
Hint at sex talk, but don’t follow it up unless the other fellow shows a strong interest.
Never discuss illness, unless some special concern is shown.
Never pry into a person’s personal circumstances (they’ll tell you all eventually).
Never boast. Just let your importance be quietly obvious.
Never be untidy.
Never get drunk.
