Keys to maintaining a good routine:
- A place for everything and everything in its place.
- Dishes, clothes, papers and beauty products are just some of the things I need to keep an eye on in this category.
- Good hygiene, quick but efficient.
- Being productive does not include plucking your eyebrows for 15 minutes every day.
- However, it should include a shower and promptly dressing.
- Consistent meal times, work times and sleep times.
- A good routine is neither sloppy nor too rigorous. If you spend a balanced amount of time between these three areas, there should be a good deal of time to play, sleep and work in your schedule.
- Quick, gentle exercise.
- This should be gentle enough to do every day and not daunting at all. I prefer yoga and Pilates. The idea behind this point is that maintaining your body not only boosts your self-esteem, but also your productivity levels. Who wants to sit on their rump all day after working to getting toned? Not me.
- Some other ideas might include a quickly paced walk, bike, jog or swim, or light weight lifting for the sake of toning.
- Good communication.
- I threw this one in because if you are struggling with some project or habit, talking to someone about it--either to identify when the struggle exists, or to get outside encouragement--is always helpful.
- Personally, I like to brag to Rico about everything I've accomplished in a day because it makes my life seem more fulfilling. Too often I find myself saying that nothing ever happens to me. That outlook is hardly a good one when I am looking for a fulfilling life.
Being meticulous will help to whittle down the time one might spend showering, dinking about during work times or cleaning times. Meticulous dressers are also very sharp. ; )
