8/17/2023 0 Comments Must have daily habits![]() ![]() ![]() This free time as a scheduled habit will help reset your brain and help you return to the work later with revitalized enthusiasm. Go watch an entire movie without getting up halfway through because you feel like you’re being unproductive. Go sit around and play Cards Against Humanity with a bunch of friends. This habit is for the workaholics and entrepreneurs out there like myself who forget that “free time” doesn’t mean “freely working on more new projects.” Free time literally means free time. Make those little moments count with the habit of learning, instead of just consuming. Take all those mindless apps and put them in a folder on your phone called “Wasting My Life Away.” On the front page, replace the spaces with productive apps-for me: Duolingo (to learn a foreign language), CNNmoney, iBooks, etc. However with technology we have become accustomed to filling those little time periods with social media on our phones, watching videos on YouTube, etc. We all have 5 minutes here, 10 minutes there. This helps you understand if you’re starting your day in a good place, or if you woke up frustrated, or if something is stressing you out, or if there’s something you’re really excited about-and from there, you will better understand yourself and how you can best approach the day to work with yourself as you currently are. Take 5 or 10 minutes and just sit in silence. This is best done in the morning but after the shower (so you’re slightly more awake). It should get you mentally ready for what you have to do that day-whatever that is. T-shirt and sweats feels more like “I’m going to stay home, binge on Netflix, and eat potato chips in my bed.” Your morning routine should be more than just the things you have to do to be a functioning human being. Now, I’m not saying wear a suit, but even wearing some jeans with a pair of nice brown dress shoes and a light blue button down is going to make you feel like you’re ready to tackle the day. But more importantly, choose clothes that force you to rise to the occasion. There are very few things in life that can start your day off as well as a morning routine that has built in triggers to get your head in the game. ![]()
