“You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.”
– John C. Maxwell
My very first Create Your Day! message was about choices and what I do in the morning to start my day off right, and after reading the above quote it helped reinforce why I changed my daily morning routine and made me reflect on the positive impact it has had on me. When I skip my morning routine I feel it later in the day as I am sluggish and not my normal self, however after my morning routine of reading, working out, and listening to upbeat positive music my energy level, clarity, and overall happiness is through the roof and I am ready to start the day.
During my morning readings I found what someone wrote as 20 daily habits for happiness:
- Be Kind
- Eat Well
- Exercise
- Meditate
- Be Honest
- Dream Big
- Be Patient
- Judge Less
- Smile Often
- Love Yourself
- Forgive Easily
- Show Gratitude
- Think Positively
- Drink Lots of Water
- Believe in Yourself
- Keep an Open-Mind
- Put Your Needs First
- Don’t Make Excuses
- Speak Well of Others
- Listen to Understand
I am curious what your top three habits for you to reach what you define as happiness. I am always looking to learn from others and would love to hear from you what you do to reach that positive state of happiness.
Have a great weekend!
