struggling with sleep ? this will help you
It can be easy to fall into a morning routine without considering how it impacts you later in the day. Your morning routine is like setting up a string of dominoes: You line everything up for success, but one false move can cause it all to come tumbling down. In order to set the right tone for the rest of your day, experts say you should adjust the following seven habits.
Find out how to stay focused and enhance your productivity. Learn how to avoid distractions and get more done in less time.
Have you ever felt like you were in a zen-like meditative state while working, mentally free to execute and apply your skills with no distracting thought whatsoever inside your mind? Feeling entirely absorbed in an activity? This is called being in the zone or getting in the flow.Those expressions are often used about athletes performing at their peak, with all their attention focused on the task at hand. No concern, no conscience of timeājust pure, invigorating work driven by heightened awareness.
āHow are things?ā asked a friend. āItās busy, but Iāll take some time to relax when things ease up,ā I replied. I recently caught myself giving a variation of this answer every time I was asked how I was doing. āSo much work, but hopefully it will be better next week.ā Being busy all the time can give us an illusion of productivity which may feel reassuring, but isnāt there a risk we are too busy to enjoy life?
A system without a goal is like a marathon without a finish line. But a system with a bad goal will result in a bad outcome. Traditional goal-setting methods use the SMART framework. SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Timely. Sounds great for small, short-term goals, but not so much for ambitious, long-term ones. If you have one or several ambitious goalsāsuch as learning how to code, studying a new language, writing a book, growing a newsletter, becoming a designerāyou may want to consider making a PACT as an alternative to SMART goals.
