Tip #2
DO NOT HIT THAT SNOOZE BUTTON! Try to wake up as soon as your alarm goes off so that you have adequate time to prepare yourself for the day ahead. If you want to take it a step further, you can even try waking up before your alarm so that you get extra time to get things in order before you need to leave.
Tip #3
Don’t just jump out of bed and get going. Now, this doesn’t mean laying in bed and thinking about the sleep you’re missing out on; it means you should make your bed as soon as you get out of it. This step allows you to cross one small task off of your checklist early and prepares you to have a productive day, as one small accomplishment leads to others. Plus, everyone loves a warm and neat bed to lie in after a long day.
Tip #4
Yummies for the tummy are essential in the mornings. We all know the benefits of a healthy breakfast, but when we’re in a hurry, we often go without. Consider preparing your breakfast from the night before, especially if it’s something that requires much time. If you aren’t able to get it ready from the night before, don’t worry. You can still prepare something that’s quick and easy before you go through the door. Making a fruit salad, a tasty sandwich or just grabbing some granola bars and yoghurt are all easy options to choose from.
