Specifically thinking of stuff that make your life better in the long run but all kinds of answers are welcome!

I've recently learnt about lifetraps and it's made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

Move the decimal point one number to the left. That's 10% of the original number. Double that number to get 20% of the original number.

Now you have your tip.

As a kid, I was taught to tip 15% for standard service. I still do that today.

20% is for exceptional service. 10% for mediocre. 2¢ for service that's so bad they should probably think about getting a different job.

Anyway, getting 15% is still very easy. Get 10% the way you said. Now add half of that.
