Reddit is popping with an entertaining thread about cheat codes for life.
It’s been a minute since we dived into the Reddit bucket here at OutKick. I guess all the geo-political events around the world have been dominating my attention.
For those of you who might not be familiar with Reddit, it’s truly one of the final untamed frontiers of the internet. It’s a wild place full of a wide variety of content and discussions.
Some are downright bonkers, and others can be more uplifting. The latter is what brings us here today.

Overall, lots of interesting advice. I will tell you the single “cheat code” I use in life that is awesome. I turned on the do not disturb setting on my phone about six months ago, and never turned it off. I also turned on the setting where you can’t even get through unless you’re in my contacts.
It’s amazing. Now, I do have a small list of favorites who can ring through in the event of a critical event, but other than that, I get zero notifications for calls, texts, social media or anything else.
It’s honestly nothing short of amazing. One of the best pieces of advice I ever got in life (the person was more successful than me by orders of magnitude) was to limit how accessible you are for people. I was a teenager when I was told that, and I never forgot it.
Unless nukes are in the air, the odds that I need to take any given phone call immediately are hovering barely north of zero percent.
Give it a shot. You might be surprised by how much you enjoy it.
