24个日常习惯? the morning 1. wake early: i am a big fan of waking at 5am and spending time working on myself before going to work. i have written more about this habit here. 2. exercise: when i had the goal of exercising 4 times a week i found it was very easy to tell myself i will exercise tomorrow instead. setting the expectation of daily exercise removed this as a potential excuse and i have since reaped the benefits of this daily habit. 3. review or (even better) rewrite your goals: each day i try to get closer to achieving my short, medium and long term goals. starting the day by reviewing or rewriting my goals means that i have better awareness of them throughout the day. as robin sharma says: with better awareness you can make better choices and when you make better choices, you will see better results. 4. read and/ or listen to motivational material: in the morning a whole day of endless possibilities lies ahead. i motivate myself to play my best game by reading and listening to inspirational books/ audiobooks. 5. visualise the day ahead: i like to take a few minutes to shut my eyes and visualise what i want happen in the coming day. it’s amazing how often my desires become reality when i do this. 6. write a “to do”list: i like to write out a list in my diary of the important tasks i need to do that day. as they are completed i put a line through them. so simple, yet so effective. 7. check the news headlines: i think it’s important to have an idea of what is happening in our community and the world. also if don’t at least check the main stories, i find it is easy to feel left out of conversations throughout the day. 8. take a multivitamin: i try to eat a well balanced diet, but taking a multivitamin daily reassures me that i obtaining the proper amount of vitamins and minerals that i need (**update: see comments). 9. tidy up: a cluttered house can lead to a cluttered mind and fuzzy thinking. i find it’s best to stay on top of things by tidying up each day. 10. take time to look good: it’s a reality of life that people judge us by our appearance. i take a few minutes each morning to ensure i go out into the world looking the best i can. the day 11. put first things first: many people have their day controlled by tasks that are urgent , but not necessarily important. examples include interruptions, some email and some phone calls. the habit of putting first things first is about organising and executing your life around your deepest priorities. 12. connect with nature: i find spending time outdoors in nature is great for my sense of wellbeing. i have written about this here. 13. blog: blogging makes me think and write - two things that i can’t get enough of each day. i have written more about the benefits of blogging here. 14. snack well: i substitute the chips, candy and chocolate with fruit, vegetables (carrots and celery are great to chomp on) and nuts. 15. be proactive: being proactive means showing initiative and taking the responsibility to make things happen. whenever i want something to happen, i ask myself: what can i do to make this happen?
