Start the day focusing on yourself.” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:21px|text_align:left|color:%23fe6f07|line_height:1.5625em” google_fonts=”font_family:PT%20Sans%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]The first tip is to take some time out for yourself when you first wake up in the morning.

Instead of reaching for your phone to check emails or social media when you first wake, you’ll be more productive if you take some time out for yourself.

Instead of focusing on what other people want from you, which is what emails and social media force you to do, focus on what you want from yourself when you first wake up, and how you want to approach the day, and what you want to achieve for the day.

Focusing on yourself might involve doing some exercise or yoga, or maybe meditating or maybe just having some quiet time to sit and read something uplifting so you start the day on a positive note.

So before you reach for your phone or laptop, take some time in the morning for you. Spend some quiet time to plan your day and get your thoughts together.

Decide what you want to achieve for the day. Then after you’ve had some ME time, you can reach for your phone and laptop. They’ll be there waiting for you![/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”2. Have 1–3 Key Goals You Want To Achieve For The Day.” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:21px|text_align:left|color:%23fe6f07|line_height:1.5625em” google_fonts=”font_family:PT%20Sans%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]The second tip is to have 1–3 goals you want to achieve for the day.

Your goals should be things that are achievable that day. If you have a larger goal, then break it down into things you can do daily and make those daily steps part of your daily goals.

When you have 1–3 things you want to achieve in a day it keeps you on track.

Stay away from unrealistic or vague goals too. And don’t make your daily goals too overwhelming, because if you do, you just won’t get them done. It’ll demotivate you.

It’s best to have clear actionable goals that you can achieve so that when you look back at the end of the day, you can tick off having done what you planned to do for that day.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”3. Minimize Your To Do List
