1. Add a Power Nap to Your Daily Routine
It might sound impossible, but the truth is that a short 20-minute nap is all you need to recharge and face the rest of the day. You could do that on your lunch break, right? A quick nap improves your performance and your mood so that the rest of your day is as great as it can be. The best time to take your power nap is between noon and 4pm.
2. Drink More Water All Day Long
When your body isn’t adequately hydrated, your mood, energy levels, skin and general health suffer. Because your body is largely made up of fluids, it makes sense that you need to refill often to keep things working as they should. Simply drinking more water every day can help you feel more alert and awake and keep you happy and healthy too. Buy a cute water bottle so you don’t forget to drink up often.

3. Spend Some Time Organizing Your Life
Many people feel an increase in anxiety and stress when they’re space is cluttered. By cutting the junk and organizing your life, you can feel better all day long while also having a tidy and clean environment. Experts suggest decluttering regularly to keep things from building up. You should also make a habit of writing things down so you don’t forget them.
4. Eat More Protein in the Morning
Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day and lots of protein is your recipe for greatness. Most experts agree that 30 grams of protein is a good number to aim for when you prepare breakfast. This will satisfy hunger, fuel your body and maintain your metabolism all morning long. Eggs are a prime source of protein so stock up today.
5. Go to Bed a Bit Earlier Tonight
You don’t have to overhaul your entire schedule, but making sleep a priority spills over into the rest of your life in positive ways. Adequate sleep helps control your appetite so you don’t overeat, it keeps your mood stable and it ensures that you have the energy to get through the day. Start by going to bed 15 minutes earlier each week until you are slumbering for seven to nine hours each night.
6. Listen to Music when You Need to Focus
It might sound like this would have the opposite effect, but music that is played softly and that isn’t too jarring can help you focus because it blocks out what is going on around you so that you aren’t distracted by every little thing. If you find that it’s hard to work with music playing, try using a white noise machine instead.
7. Start Collecting Your Change for Something Fun
If you’re dreaming of an island getaway or simply a new pair of shoes, start socking away all your change and you’ll find that it’s practically effortless to save some money for the things you want. Buy a jar for your change and deposit it each day as soon as you get home. Easy, right?

Whitttey: Yes! You have to drink water for sure. As a matter of fact, I barely ever drank water until a few days ago. I was so dehydrated that I have been dizzy nonstop for 5 whole weeks! A heart doctor told me that In order for blood to flow properly to your brain your body need lots of water, and I had been getting dizzy because I wasn't drinking enough water. So drink lots unless you want horrid side effects!
