If you are looking to automate your life (and who isn’t) to make it just a little bit easier, there are a few different things you can do. In today’s world, there are a lot of things that you can automate – like paying your telecommunications billing automatically, your morning cup of coffee, and even your birth control.
Automation isn’t always good because it can cause you to forget about things, but there are some great things that it can do. Here are some everyday tasks that you can automate now that will make your life easier and they won’t even require you to be too techy.
Automate Your Bills
If you want to automate your bills, it is a pretty easy task to do. Almost every service you have, from your television service to your cellphone to your car payments can all be automated so that you don’t need to think about them. It might take some time, and you’ll need to know about your routing numbers and other information, but once you have all that, you can reap the rewards.
Over time, you may have to change your automation here and of course, you want to make sure that you don’t overdraft your account.
Change Up Your Entertainment System
Your entertainment system is there when you just want to relax: so why don’t you automate it? You can set up a system where your lights, television, speakers, and remotes are all controlled by your smartphone. This will take some extra setup and a few extra devices, but it will be worth it in the end.
Just be sure that you put everything together on one remote. Trying to juggle more remotes can make things harder than it was.
Your Security System
Automate your security system by setting up times where your door should automatically lock, your motion sensors should turn on, and your security system should be on high alert. Most security systems will have a mobile app where you can check your cameras and arm/disarm your setup, so you won’t have to worry about getting locked out of your home.
This setup will also come in handy when you are sitting in bed at night and realize you aren’t sure if you locked the door.
Ensure Your Morning Coffee Is Ready
If you like to have a morning cup of coffee, but standing there and waiting for it to brew feels like torture, look for a coffee pot that you can automate. These coffee pots are easy to set up and they will automatically turn off and on so that you don’t have to worry about brewing your coffee in the morning or coming home to coffee that has been burnt onto the bottom of the carafe.
Automate Basic Daily Tasks
The number of daily tasks that you can automate around your house is enough to keep you set things up for a few weeks. However, most people don’t need to automate all of the basic things they do daily. There are some home tasks that we think you should automate, however, because they can help you save money and keep your home goods safe.
For example, many people want to automate their thermostats because they can change things without getting out of bed or going somewhere else in their homes. Some people like to turn down their thermostats when they are out of the house, so automation will allow you to turn it up before you get home.
Other people will use automation to control the lights in their homes. They will be able to turn the lights off and on automatically – a great feature for new parents who need to carry their children into the home. They can also naturally open their blinds and curtains in the morning, but that is more of a luxury.
Automation Can Change Your Life
Automation is something that can make your life a lot easier. However, it can also go wrong. Be sure that you are smart about what you are automating and pay attention to the schedule everything is on. It will help you to know what’s going on in your life, where your systems are at, and even how much money you are spending.
