Do you feel as
though you have got yourself into a bit of a rut?
It’s so easy
to pick up habits as part of our daily work routine.
These could be
as simple as picking up a stodgy lunch, clocking off a little earlier than
normal, or even staying in bed for those extra fifteen minutes.
If you feel
like you need to freshen your routine up, and improve your work-life balance, then
look no further than my handy hints below:
1. Get up earlier. It’s a commitment not many people want
to make. Getting up earlier is like a physical pain to some poor people. But
there’s no denying that the early to bed, early to rise adage really is true.
Getting up earlier gives you more time to wake up, grab a proper breakfast and
prepare to seize the day.
2.
Take a different route to work. It sounds simple-but it is a great
way of mixing your routine up a little in a morning. If you drive to work, try
setting off in good time and taking a more scenic route. If you walk or get the
bus, try walking a different route, or getting off at an earlier stop. Studies
by psychologists have found it’s a great way of making you more alert and
perceptive.
3.
Visualise your goals: Spend afew minutes every day closing
your eyes, letting all the clutter fade away and focus on your main goals that
day. It can be anything-making time for the gym, cooking a healthy meal, or
spending some evening time with your children. Crossing out each task you have
achieved that day is a fantastic boost and gets you out of that rut.
4.
Be proactive: Is there a goal you would like to
achieve in your life? Or an experience you would like to have? Be proactive to
make any changes you feel are necessary in order to achieve them. Don’t be
afraid to take the leap!
5.
Spend time with friends and family: Spending quality time with those you
care about is really important. Studies have shown a quick coffee and a natter
with friends can boost self-esteem. Don’t forget to make time!
Sometimes, you
may need a bit more help to get out of that rut. If you find yourself feeling
low quite a bit, and struggling to make the changes you want, you may benefit
from talking to a professional.
Hypnotherapy
works because it helps you find your own potential through the power of
positive thinking. I firmly believe we all have the ability to make positive changes
in our lives.
