Click and type anywhere in Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word has a feature that is rarely used but is very helpful. It is double click and type. Just double-click anywhere in the document and your insertion point (the cursor) will be placed exactly at that place. I use this all the time to add videos or images to the right side of my text.
