DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:
Always use the same password for all my accounts and applications. I do not like to use complicated passwords because it is difficult to remember and too long.
PROBLEMS THAT HAVING THE SAME PASSWORDS ON ALL SITES CAN CAUSE YOU:
Reusing the same password for multiple accounts makes you vulnerable to cyber attacks such as credential stuffing. This is when a cybercriminal uses verified login information – commonly found on the dark web after a data leak – then tries those credentials on a variety of other websites in an attempt to gain access. If someone reuses the same password for multiple accounts, a compromised credential from just one of them can result in severe impacts if your identity, banking or other Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is compromised.

TIPS TO AVOID THE PROBLEMS:
To avoid problems you can:
1.- Make the beginning of the password the same in all of them and then the end different in each one
2.- Have a little notebook that you can always have in a place that you know and write down all the passwords and what each one is for.
3.- Put passwords that are easy to remember but different.
4.- Put things that are always within your reach: birthdays...
5.- Use private applications to save passwords on your phone
Maybe now you think that it is not necessary but the day it becomes a serious problem because they see your own data you will realize it and from that day on you will change your cobpasswords without thinking twice.
