100 POINTS AND BRAINLEIST

Answer 1

A life hack is a strategy that helps you do something better or with greater ease, and that would probably also help others if they knew about it. Sometimes “shortcut” is used as a synonym. A life hack can be anything from a practical piece of advice (like the tip that you should always have certain items in the trunk of your car in case of an emergency) to a stratagem to use in social contexts (like a mnemonic device for remembering the name of someone you have just met) to a philosophical notion (like the belief that “good things come to those who wait”).
