Are you feeling overwhelmed or maybe even a little down because you didn’t achieve your goals in 2018? Whether you’re someone who likes the idea of setting New Years Resolutions or not, each year we are given an opportunity to start fresh. Take the first steps to ensure 2019 is your best year yet with simple daily habits you can start today.
HERE ARE OUR DAILY HABITS TO START NOW TO BECOME YOUR BEST SELF IN 2019!
Wake up earlier than you have to
Did you know that the 90% of executives wake up before 6 am on weekdays?
Imagine what you could get done if you woke up even 30 minutes earlier than you need to each morning?
Whether you choose to workout in the morning, take up meditation, or get a head start on your commute, create a morning ritual that sets you up for success each day.
Stay organized and set deadlines
You’d never shrug off missing a deadline at work or for a school assignment, would you?
Setting strict deadlines for personal accomplishments will help you hold yourself accountable for getting things done.
Mark important dates, deadlines, and goals down on paper, in a journal or a planner.
Eat with intention and move your body
You only get one body and 2019 should be the year that you start treating it right.
Practice self-love by eating with intention, fuel your body with the nourishment it needs and make exercise a part of your lifestyle.
You don’t have to join an expensive gym, and you can even make exercise a part of your routine while traveling by exploring a new city on foot, and opting to take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Stay informed about current events and read about your industry
We’ve all been there, caught in a conversation where you’re the only one who can’t keep up.
It’s impossible to know everything going on in the world, but it will help you immensely socially and professionally to know the most important events of the day.
Set a world news site as your homepage, follow reputable news sources on social media, and have the news playing in the background while you get ready in the morning.
Find websites, magazines, or podcasts that report on the news about your industry and dedicate even a few minutes each day to becoming more informed.
Clean as you go
One simple task you can start today is to make a habit of cleaning as you go.
Having a clean workspace is a must for a productive day, and a clean home can even play a role in the quality of sleep that you get.
Now that we’ve established a few habits for success, what goals will you set for yourself in 2019?
I will…find the balance between contentment and ambition
Contentment is the ability to be happy and fulfilled in one’s present state.
Finding the balance between contentment and ambition means recognizing the importance of being happy with what you have right now while continuing to push yourself to pursue your goals and dreams.
I will…have a savings goal
According to the American Psychological Association (APA), 72 percent of Americans are stressed about money.
Whether it’s for a vacation, a new car, to pay off student debt or to start saving for a down payment on a home, 2019 if the year we get our finances in check.
You’ll be surprised to see how much easier it is to save when you give yourself a specific savings goal.
Give yourself a deadline and write it down, everything feels a little more serious when you put it on paper.
I will…invest in myself
Pop in your headphones and listen to a podcast during your morning commute or while at the gym.
Download an app to learn a new language or sign up for an online class.
Whether it’s investing in learning a new skill, developing yourself personally or professionally, or coming together with women from around the world to realize your full potential in a beautiful destination.
Invest in yourself.
I will…?
How are you going to push yourself harder in the New Year to meet the goals that you have set for yourself?
Start now and you’ll be well on your way to becoming the best version of yourself in 2019.
