Life on Autopilot

This isn't your typical adulting book filled with obvious advice about budgets and cleaning schedules. "Life on Autopilot" is a practical guide for people who want to build an efficient, low-maintenance adult life using modern tools, technology, and shortcuts. It's about working smarter, not harder - designed for a generation that values time and mental bandwidth as much as money.The book reframes adulting as a system design challenge rather than a set of daily chores. Instead of lecturing readers about responsibility, it presents clever solutions for automating, outsourcing, or streamlining virtually every aspect of adult life. From teaching your smart speaker to manage your shopping list to setting up AI assistants for research and decision-making, from automating your finances to creating digital systems that prevent problems before they occur, this guide shows you how to build a life that practically runs itself.Readers will discover modern solutions to age-old problems: how to never miss a bill payment without looking at your calendar, how to maintain relationships without remembering dates, how to keep your home clean with minimal effort, and how to manage your career without becoming a workaholic. The book explores how to leverage technology not just for convenience, but for creating fail-safe systems that eliminate common adult stressors.What sets this guide apart is its focus on reducing cognitive load rather than just saving time or money. It acknowledges that mental bandwidth is a precious resource and provides strategies for freeing up brain space typically occupied by adult responsibilities. Whether it's using AI for research and decision-making, setting up digital systems for automatic maintenance of tasks, or creating fool-proof methods for managing everything from laundry to meal planning, each solution is designed to minimize the mental energy required for adult life.Rather than preaching perfect habits, it focuses on creating systems that work even when you don't - because the best adult life is one that runs smoothly with minimal intervention.
