Life Hacks
Thoughts
Object-based
Based on my experience, I recognised myself:
using a same water bottle to fill the water/juice
using a fruit container as a case of my laptop charger
using a cup as a pot for my plants
using a paper to cool down my wine
Therefore,
water bottle is being used as a juice/water container
fruit container is being used as a laptop charger
cup is being used as a pot
paper is being used as a cooler
= every single objects can be used for a life hack.

system-based
Chain / circular system idea:
All things can be used in a different way. One object can be randomly related to another object which could be a trigger to the other object.
