SOME
GOOD “MINI HABITS” TO PRACTICE EACH DAY
1. Just after you brush your teeth, look at yourself in the mirror
and smile. Even if you can't think of a reason to, still just smile and keep it
up for 10 seconds. Guaranteed you will spend rest of the day happier.
2. Whenever you find yourself opening Facebook or Whats-app again
and again. Put away your laptop and phone and go on a short walk wherever you
can. Walking is known to help collect your thoughts and relaxing you.
3. Meditate for 10 minutes. If you have no clue how to, just sit in
a quiet place and try counting your breaths till 10-15. Your focus should be on
your breath and no thinking. Restart counting as soon as your mind distracts
you and you find yourself thinking of something else.
4. Before your sit to work, remind yourself of TWO things that you
need finished today (only two, no more). Remind yourself again in the lunch
time. There are high chances you will get more important things done this way.
5. Just before sleeping, tell your brain to wake you up at ___a.m.
You will be surprised when soon you would stop needing the alarm clock. Still a
stubborn sleeper? Put your cell phone some distance away from you when sleeping
so that you need to walk up to it when the alarm rings.
6. Revisit your day and
remember the positive/good things from the day. Be thankful for those.
7. Try to do at least one new thing - be it taking a different
route to work, talking to a new person, experimenting an activity you haven't
before. Don't let your curiosity and awe die in the daily grind.
