It’s no secret that every day there is only 24 Hours. However, there are plenty of ways you can add an hour a day to your life in a few simple easy steps. It just takes discpline and commitment.
First, off an introduction. I’m the most unorganized, lazy, son of a gun on the planet. Luckily I know what it takes for me to solve some of these problems. Therefore here I go sharing them with you. Here’s my simple prescription for a 25 Hour Day.
Stop drinking pop.
I’m not really opposed to caffeine per se, just pop. Here’s why. Pop is largely made up of bad sugar that is known to the health community as extrinsic sugars. Extrinsic sugars tend to slow down just about every process of the body and mind. If you avoid them you will think clearer and each day add a few seconds to your each activity.
Add Water To Your OJ.
OJ contains way to much bad sugar and not only does it rot your teeth it loads up your body on bad sugars which you want to avoid.
Stop snoozing
Instead of hitting that snooze button wake up bright and early and start your day. Not only will you feel better but you will develop a foundation for good habits that will help you in the future.
Spend 10 Minutes Every Day Getting Organized
Sometimes you have to give up 10 minutes of your time to save more time in the future. By devoting 10 minutes of your time every day to getting organized you will actually save more than hour every day. Mostly in headaches not being able to find something for your spouse.
Keep Todo Lists
Keep todo lists and actually followup on them every single day. After about six months of this I’m getting more done and making better use of my time. Much of it was wasted in the past trying to remember what I was supposed to be doing that day.
Keep it simple
If their is anything you can simplify whether its your daily drive, your schedule, or your habits. Just do it already. By simplifying you will probably not only save time but be a hole helluva lot happier.
