How is important daily routines?

“We are what we repeatedly do. 

Excellence, then, is not an act, 

but a habit.”

Having no routine or structure is so much more draining mentally, physically, and emotionally than any routine could ever be!

why Create a Routine?-          Establishing a positive daily routine is both a self-investment and a way to do your best for the rest of the world. It also provides additional benefits, such as giving you structure, building forward-moving habits, and creating momentum that will carry you on the days when you feel like you don’t have the strength to carry yourself.Following a daily routine can help you establish priorities, limit procrastination, keep track of goals, and even make you healthier.

as Tynan, the author of Superhuman by Habit, says, habits are “action[s] that you take on a repeated basis with little or no required effort or thought.”

I admit it though; it isn’t always easy to create good habits. As Brian Tracy  says, “Good habits are hard to form but easy to live with. Bad habits are easy to form but hard to live with.”

Part 1: Optimize Your Mind-

A successful daily routine helps you achieve laser-like focus from the moment you wake up in the morning…to the time you close your eyes and drift off to dreamland at night.

Get positive: Start the day with a mantra

Be proactive: Don’t check your email first!

Mentally prepare: Visualize your success

Read a book (Even if it’s just a page)  -

Reading books offers many science-based benefits. Reading can boost your intelligence, increase your brainpower (for up to 5 days, according to research conducted by Emory University), and even strengthen your ability to empathize with other people. Reading has also been found to reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s by more than double…all this while helping you feel more relaxed at the same time!

Joshua Becker, bestselling author of Simplify, has made it a goal to read a book a week because reading makes him a better leader, increases his worldview and knowledge base, and reinforces his self-discipline.

Make yourself accountable: Enlist a partner or mentor- making a list of three people that you trust and respect. Have a conversation with each of these people and discuss exactly what it is that you want to accomplish. After the conversation, decide which of these individuals will serve best as a accountability partner for the specific milestone you are trying to reach.

Write: Prime yourself for creativity-Spending time writing every day  helps you become a better communicator, improves your ability to recall important information, and it also enhances your creativity. Write in a diary format and you also have the added benefit of greater self-understanding.

I also write down 10 ideas,

They can be big ideas (how to cure cancer) or small ones (ways get your cat to quit scratching the furniture).

Make a daily to-do list-Keep your daily to-do list small so that it’s manageable and not overwhelming. A great “hack” to make sure you keep your lists simple is using a Post-It Note.

Take regular breaks throughout the day-

While all of these tips are meant to help you forage ahead, sometimes you just need to step back and give your mind a break.Taking regular breaks keeps you from getting bored and losing focus, increasing your brain’s function at the same time. It also forces you to reevaluate what you’re working on, ensuring that you’re going in the right direction.

I’ve found the Pomodoro Technique  to be invaluable at helping me to keep my energy levels high and “forcing” me to take regular breaks. 

Break your day into chunks-Breaking your day into chunks helps you be the best you as too much time spent doing one thing can cause you to lose focus…and interest. And if you’re working on something you don’t really want to do, it makes it easier because you only have to do it for a short while.

Theme your week- Jack Dorsey, co-founder of both Twitter and Square, used to manage both of these companies at the same time without getting overwhelmed. He did this by setting aside different tasks for different days of the week.

Part 2: Optimize Your Body-

Being your best also requires that you take care of your body and are firing on all cylinders! Here are a few things you can add to your daily routine to do just that…

#Breathe: Practice deep breathing

#Eat “productive” foods

#Drink more water: 9-13 cups a day

#Have some tea: Polyphenols benefit the body

#Get out of your chair…often

#Exercise (MOVE!)- http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/05/09/the-scientific-7-minute-workout/

Get enough sleep: No less than 7 hours

Part 3: Optimize your Spirit-

Just as mental and physical aspects of your daily routine can elevate you and push you forward, the same is true when you tend to yourself emotionally and spiritually. Here are a few options to consider:

Get quiet: Try meditation

Find a well of inspiration

Practice gratitude: Write what you’re thankful for

Learn something new (every day!)

Spend less time with people who don’t lift you up

Give to others

Evaluate. Track. Enhance.

                3 Questions to Ask Yourself

Question #1: “Am I doing what I love?”

Question #2: “What’s the worst that could happen?”

Question #3: “What good have I done today?”

Improve your COMMUNICATION SKILL

9 Tips for Improving Your Communications Skills

According to a survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, communication skills are listed as the most important quality sought in job candidates.

1-Communication skills (4.7)

2-Honesty/integrity (4.7)

3-Teamwork skills (4.6)

4-Strong work ethic (4.5)

5-Analytical skills (4.4)

6-Flexibility/adaptability (4.4)

7-Interpersonal skills (4.4)

8-Motivation/initiative (4.4)

9-Computer skills (4.3)

Here’s a list of the most desirable traits (on a 1-5 scale, 1=not at all important, 5=extremely important)

Here are the 9 Tips for Improving Your Communication Skills:

Make communication a priority-

Take classes, read books, magazine articles or learn from successful communicators around you. Seek a mentor or coach.

Simplify and stay on message-

Use simple, straightforward language.

Engage your listeners or readers-

Draw your listeners and readers into the conversation. Ask questions and invite opinions. Solicit their feedback.

Take time to respond-

After you’ve listened (and understood) take time to “draft” in your head what you want to say.

Make sure you are understood-

Don’t blame the other person for not understanding. Instead, look for ways to clarify or rephrase what you are trying to say so it can be understood.

Develop your listening skills, too-

 The best communicators are almost always the best listeners. Listen without judgment and don’t be distracted by thinking about what you want to say next. Then, respond, not react.

Body language is important.-

Studies show that 65% of all communication is non-verbal. Watch for visual signs that your listener understands, agrees or disagrees with your message. And be aware that your body is sending signals, too.

Maintain eye contact-Whether speaking to a crowd or one-on-one, maintaining eye contact builds credibility and demonstrates you care about your listeners.

Respect your audience-Recognize your message is not just about you or what you want. You should sincerely care about the needs and the unique perspectives of those to whom you are communicating. One of the best ways to show your respect is simply by paying attention to what they say.

How to improve your personal development skills?

You can enhance your personal development skills by taking classes, learning from the people around you, gaining new talents and improving upon existing ones. 

Follow these guidelines to develop yourself personally:

Overcome your fears- Fear can prevent you from growing and progressing. If you are afraid of public speaking, for instance, take a class or join a group that helps people become better public speakers. If you are afraid of taking risks, find a mentor who can help you make good decisions and build your confidence. Grow and learn by trying things you might not be comfortable doing. If you are shy, try starting a conversation or introducing yourself to new people at a reception or workshop.

Read- Reading expands our knowledge and vocabulary and keeps us informed. It stimulates our minds and can improve our critical thinking skills. Try setting a goal to read at least one educational or motivational article a day, or one book a month.

Learn something new- Learn a new skill or topic, whether you do it yourself or sign up for a class. You might, for instance, take courses to learn another language, a new software program or how to write creatively. Consider watching a webinar on professional development topics such as entrepreneurship or social media marketing.

Ask for feedback- Approach a family member, friend, colleague or manager, and ask them to give you feedback on a recent project or accomplishment. Use their positive comments as well as their constructive criticism to find ways to improve. Sometimes you need an outside, unbiased opinion to get a different perspective.

Observe others- Watch and learn from the people who inspire you. This could be someone you know, such as a supervisor, family member or public figure. Identify the qualities you admire in them, and try to replicate those in yourself.

Network-By interacting with many types of people, you can learn new ideas and understand how to communicate and work with different personality types. You can also meet people and develop relationships that might help you in the future. Network through industry organizations and shared interest groups, or attend conferences and events on topics that interest you.

Keep a journal- Writing in a journal every day or week can help you gain self-awareness and reflect on recent events, decisions and conversations. You might keep a hand-written, private journal, or you might choose to share your thoughts and experiences by blogging. Use it to set and assess goals and progress.

Meditate- Many people meditate to gain clarity and awareness and to reduce stress and anxiety. Meditation can help you focus on your self-development and goals in a healthy, positive and calm way. Even scheduling a break from work or quiet time to yourself can help you relax and focus.

Get a mentor-If you need help identifying ways to build your self-development skills, talk to a mentor. This individual could be a manager, professor, someone you admire or a professional personal growth mentor.
