Really love the Good Daily Habits article. The lemon water & rebounding suggestions are useful suggestions. The first article is a bit of a shortcut to David Allen’s GTD I really like the suggestion to leave wiggle room as things never going 100% according to plan.

These are really some nice tips and I would try to inculcate it in my habits. Although I am lazy kind of guy so it would be quite hard for me.

I am a complete sucker for routines!! However, I have terrible follow-through. I know they always make me more productive over the course of an entire day, but I always make excuses as to why I shouldn’t complete the entire routine each day.
This post is a fantastic reminder that I need to stick to it, and allow it to become a solid habit. Then it will just be easy…like brushing my teeth daily or combing my hair.
Love this post! Thank you!
I love this roundup post! I thrive on routines. But i could use a little more structure in my blogging. thanks for this!

It’s so difficult to change or to just get started. I found with many of my customers it was about going through a significant life event that kicks you in the tushy so you take back your time. You must get Fed Up enough to exchange the bad patterns for good ones.
