Stretch and exercise. Every day. Either your body or your mind, pick one a day and the other another, else you'll end up stiff in the body, injure yourself trying to do simple things and have a head full of mush to boot.

Get yourself off as many social medias as you can, and join a local club that lets you be social while being active.

Learn to embrace being absolutely dog egg at new hobbies and unfamiliar tasks. There's no avoiding it, so learn from it instead and work out what does and doesn't work. When you start to get stuck long term, that's when you go find someone to teach you.

Get an adblocker, ghostery and or privacy badger and dont trust free VPNs, because fuck adverts and the metadata they'd ride out with if you let them.
