What is one thing you started doing consistently that you wish you had started years ago?

Once I stopped using all meds prescribed as a children once I turned 18 made my life so much better afterwards damn doctors trying to poison us..

I think probably taking up a sport. It really made me chill out a lot more, I recommend any software developers seriously take up a sport, either solo or with a team. Using up that free energy is a life saver
