Publish Once and Automatically Syndicate Many Times
Why?
If you create content online you want it to reach the largest possible audience. One solution is to publish it on many platforms. First on your own blog, then as a guest on other publications like Huffington Post, Medium, Facebook, LinkedIn etc. Currently, you need to create copies of the original (and hopefully tag it so that Google doesn’t consider it duplicate content), which means there are many different unsynced copies.
How?
Created a mechanism where the other places that are also publishing your article dynamically get it from your original source, with some added optional context (like explaining where it was originally published.) This will keep all copies in sync with your original one and guarantee your control over it. At the same time, it will be easier for the other publications to insert it anywhere they want.

Make Sure Cleaning Services Are Done the Way You Want
Why?
You have a new cleaner coming for the first time. You want to make sure he does a good job the way you want it to be done.
How?
Record short videos with you smartphone every time something come into your mind regarding the upcoming cleaning. You’re at your study and would like him not to disturb your desk when next he cleans, so simply record a short video of your desk and while recording explain this in your voice. This way you’ll have a few very short videos with the context (the specific space in the house) and instructions for that space. When they come to clean just show them the videos and even send it to their own smartphone.
