Why having a routine helps your day


Routines are so important

Routines do not just set the day, do you are ready for what big adventure may come next but also, routines at night can close the day and prepare you for a gentle sleep tos tar the day again.

What is cool about routines is it can help you achieve your goals.

I remember someone saying, I lost weight because I got into a routine to go running. Setting and continually completing the routine will see you achieve your goals, whatever they may be. 

So how do you create a routine? 

Start with the basics. For the next two weeks create the same routine for when you wake up. Wash your face, eat breakfast, make a coffee and brush your teeth. You can do this in any order and you can add or subtract from it. 

Then, if you have already, write down three goals and then put them in order of your highest priority being one. Now, work out how much time you want to spend or have time to spend on your goal each day / week. 

Next, workout a time each day / week to work on said goal. This is so important. Because goals can remain goals a year later without being started or continued because you have not paved time to it. Setting a routine paves time for it. Now notice, I didn’t say do this for the top 3 goals. For now, we are just focussing on one goal, your number one goal. 

Follow this routine for three months. You can add more time to this goal if you haven’t and if you want to get there faster. 

Now after three months, revisit your goal. Do you want to amend it? Refine it? Change it or add to it? How much more time a week do you need to achieve this over the next three months? 

Now change to your updated goal for two weeks. Do you feel confident you will continue on your journey and keep revisiting your goal every three months? 

If so, go to your second goal. Now do the same process for the top goal for the second goal. Make a set time for it daily / weekly. And do this for three months and then every three months, see your progress and upgrade it if you want / need to. 

Now watch while your life transforms on doing what you want and love to do. Keep dreaming and achieving.

Write in the comments below your top one goal.

I'm the boss

Image
Image by gnanasathees suntharam from Pixabay Sometimes, you might be facing something tough. Something you would rather avoid but you can't.  So pump up the music and remind yourself, you are the boss.  Walk like you are the boss. Shoulders back. Head held high. And your face can be as you want it. No fakeness here. You just be you.  You are going to go all into this situation and you are going to represent yourself.  It does not matter how tough you may feel the situation is. Why? Because, you are the boss.  You got this.  You may not be able to control the outcome, but you are going to show-up and give your best in whatever situation. The best is all you can give, this is what you can control. So give it.  Always be respectful and polite but remember you got this. Be the boss.  #betheboss #confidence #challenges

Have you been told this before?

Image
Image by Hoàng Bình from Pixabay I wonder if anyone has told you, you are a very special and an important person. It doesn't matter if no one has told you because I am telling you right now.  You are special You are amazing You are an important person.  All that matters is that you tell yourself the above over and over, until you smile. Why till you smile? Because that is when you believe it.  Imagine if you could fly.  Where would you go? What would you see? Imagination is by starting to visualise where you want to be, who you want to be... tell yourself or write it down, where do you want to be and who do you want to be? It doesn't matter when.  Just where do you want to be? By visualising every day the same visual thoughts of where you want to be, you start to be motivated to find ways, steps, goals, people to meet to find ways to get where you want to be.  Now is not the time to give up. Now is the time to remind yourself what you knew deep down all al...

Be in the moment

Image by Toàn Lê from Pixabay Think of your favourite colour. Now imagine you are holding something in your hand that is your favourite colour. Think about how it feels. Is it soft and smooth or has intricate details or maybe it is heavy and hard?  Think about the size. Does it have its own unique size or is it large, medium or small? What is the shape look like?  Does the object have a scent? For example, maybe a purple object has a lavender scent or maybe a wooden object has a wood scent. Does it smell nice?  Why do you like this object that you are holding? Does it make you smile? Maybe it brings you comfort? Now during your hard times think about this object. Think about how it feels and smells but most important think about how this object makes you feel.  #objects #sensory
