How to prioritize your life in 3 simple steps. 1. Plan a life you want to have Have a deep conversation with yourself and ask yourself a question: What am I willing to do in my life? Create a personal vision for your future, that will justify your everyday effort. Specify your goals and ask yourself: What is my purpose in life. The process of setting goals motivates us in turning our ideas of a perfect future into reality. Identify your macro goals and decompose them into micro goals by thinking strategically. This way it would be easier to master them with the high degree of probability and avoid feeling overwhelmed. Give yourself a credit for every small achievement. It is crucial, because by consistent small achievements you are making a real life progress and you build self-confidence. Stop wasting opportunities you have in front of you. Be mindful and observe the world around you! Do NOT abandon some idea only because you think that you will not be able to realize it. TRY! 2. Make a schedule and stick with it Schedule means getting things done. That is why you should not underestimate its importance, especially if you consider the monetary value of your time. And let me tell you, even if you are not at the working place in a particular moment, your time has still monetary value, because you either saving money or investing them in your future. Always Remember that time is money, just like Benjamin Franklin said. For that reason, you should first ask yourself a question: How much is my time worth? It can be hard to answer this precisely but it worth to try it. Here are the reasons why you really need a schedule: It helps you achieve your goals Provides responsibility, which makes your life meaningful and worth living because everything you do DOES matter. Makes you stay focus on your activities Motivates you to achieve your goals Fights the procrastination and saves our time Improves self-discipline & conscientiousness which makes you much more efficient during the day Reduces stress and anxiety Provides more time for relax - yes, you should schedule time for relax! Makes you feel in control - because you choose how your day is going to look like and let me tell you: it s empowering!
The last but not least advice on making a schedule is to be rational, have a deep conversation with your conscience and always, always negotiate with yourself! Do not be your own tyrant. Design your ideal week and step by step achieve every single goal that you have scheduled before! 3. Create your daily routine If you are not sure why building a daily routine is so important the answer is quite simple: We are creatures of habit and through healthy routine we can achieve our goals. In my opinion to stay healthy mentally you need to adopt some kind of daily routine. Otherwise it s just sacrificing your sanity. And let me tell you, you cannot survive living day by day in chaotic, unplanned manner. There is no way you can achieve anything this way. I m sure about that because I tried it and I failed. If you build a good daily routine, adopt a schedule and set your goal structure, in this way you will find a real purpose of your life. Here are other wonderful benefits from daily routine: Makes you grounded and mindful Builds better mental health - without a daily routine your emotions are dysregulated Provides structure and familiarity in your life Helps managing chaos or better establish balance between chaos and order Increases efficiency not only at work but also at your free time Helps you break bad habits and build the good ones Provide better sleep which undeniably improves your mental and physical health Saves our time by reducing the need to plan daily activities Example of a daily routine: Always get up early (if it s possible) around the same hour for example 6-8 a.m. - even if you don t have a typical office job, it s still a good option because it s the time most of the people get up Do some work out - the best would be quick (about 15 min) cardio or HIIT workout Eat breakfast and plan other meals of the day - it saves a lot of time and helps with healthy diet Work Eat lunch/dinner Plan your next day/make a schedule Relax/Meditate/Do some yoga or pilates Take a hot bath or quick shower Prepare yourself to sleep Take care and Good luck!
