What does a great life look like for you?
What vision do you have for your life?
Who do you want to become?
Who are you grateful for?
What is your legacy?
7) Check Your Calendar & To-Dos
Knowing what your day’ll look like helps reduce stress.
Clarify your to-dos to build a mental picture of your day.
This will help you feel in control of your day.
8) Identify Your One Thing
You end days feeling deflated when nothing meaningful was achieved.
Fix this by identifying one action (writing a report, playing Lego with your kids, etc) that’ll make today a win.
9) Move
It doesn't matter what you do but do something.
30min walk, Yoga session, Crossfit class...
Prep your body for the day ahead.
Get the blood pumping.
Feel alive.
10) Meal Prep
Whether for yourself or for the family, make the time to have your food prepped for the day.
This will avoid bad food choices later and create time to relax later.
Include planning for hydration to help your focus during the day.
