8 Ways to Have the Most Productive Day Ever, By : Jeff Cattel, Greatist From everydayhealth.com

1. Start With Meditation

I suggest doing 10 to 20 minutes of meditation every morning. If you think of all of the thoughts rolling around in your head like dirt that’s shaken in a jar, I find that the dust doesn’t settle until about 15 minutes into my practice. This really creates that calm before the storm of the day, and it has helped me with better thinking and clarity of purpose. If you don’t like meditating, find something repetitive that has a meditative nature to it. That could be lifting weights or calisthenics that involve counting your breath or movement.

2. Make Email Wait

I make sure I at least finish my meditation before I check my email, but I try to wait longer. I realized checking it early puts me in a reactive mood for the next few hours. I sleep with my phone in airplane mode, so there’s always a flood of messages that come in when I turn it on — basically an agenda for everyone else’s time tapping me in the forehead.

3. Identify the Habits That Help and Hinder You

I’m a notorious snoozer, so I really need to set my phone away from my bed to force me to crawl out of it. Or you can get something like Clocky, the alarm clock that literally rolls off your nightstand if you hit the snooze button.

4. Look at Your Diet

I was used to waking up feeling groggy, and I really thought it had to do with how much sleep I was getting — and to an extent it does. But I noticed when I stick to a high-fat diet, that all changed.

5. Punish Yourself (Sometimes)

If you’re used to going to bed at 3 a.m. like me, you can’t just lie in bed at 10 p.m. and think you’ll fall asleep right away. You could use something like melatonin to help, but I made a pact that I would punish myself for a week. No matter when I went to bed, I would wake up at 7:30 a.m. And sure enough, my sleep habits started to shift.

6. Don’t Leave Anything Up to Chance

It’s best to have a clear morning routine and stick to it. Know how much time everything takes from meditating to getting dressed to eating. The exact order of my mornings is always predetermined, so I’m not exerting any decision-making power.

7. Plan an Afterwork Activity

This isn’t technically part of my morning routine, but it’s still a great practice. Find some type of activity — ideally something physical — that officially ends your work day. It’s even better if that commitment involves another person, like a lifting buddy at the gym — that way there’s a social punishment for not going, which is always a great motivator.

8. Make It a Game You Can Win

Changing behavior usually works best in baby steps. Start by making the pass-fail mark really low. If you’re trying to meditate every morning, start with a few minutes and work your way up. That way you’ll actually stick with it.

There is a verry simple way to do. Just lets take your pin and make your to do list, for make awesome day in everydays
