When is the last time you made a backup copy?

Technology is not immaculate or indestructible so your devices won’t last forever. Still, despite that, we treat them and the data on them roughly. Until a disaster happens – the device stops working, we lose it or it is stolen.

Using the same password, always and everywhere

The average user uses at least ten passwords for different services and bills. But, with the constant reminding that passwords should be changed every few months it is getting harder and harder to memorize them. So because of that users begin to “recycle” passwords and soon they have the same password for several services. Easier to remember, but easier to hack.
 
It is true that remembering different password can be difficult, but once when you come up with your system, it will be much easier. Pick a phrase that will be your basis and for every page add something characteristic to that page. For example, if your base is AcM3 and you add 8F8 to that for Facebook, it will be easy to remember and almost impossible to hack.

Chatting at the table or in company of others

You are sitting on a family diner and you can’t let go of your phone because you are chatting with your friend who is also at the table. No wonder everyone is looking accusingly at you. 
 
Not only is texting at the table rude, but it is also unnecessary. If something is very important, excuse yourself, get off the table, do your phone call or write that you are busy, and then comeback. If that is too difficult, set a rule: the first one who touches their mobile phone during dinner washes the dishes or cooks the next lunch.
