Many of us often feel overwhelmed by tasks, deadlines, and a multitude of responsibilities.

The secret to living a balanced and successful life lies in structure. An organized life doesn’t just mean making your shopping list or arranging your desk neatly; it means creating a system that allows you to make the most of each day.

1. Write things down — don’t try to remember everything, the brain is notorious for forgetting ideas!

2. Plan intentional breaks in between focus work; it will help you recover and recharge for the next task.

3. Begin your day with the end in mind — focus on a few high-priority tasks at a time.

4. Drink at least a glass of water first thing in the morning to improve gut and brain health.

5. Make walking a daily or weekly habit. It’s the easiest and healthiest form of exercise to improve mental clarity and self-awareness.

6. Track the habits that take up most of your time and do more of what works and less of what is a waste of time.

7 Practice the one-tab rule — use a single browser tab when you are working. It minimizes the web distraction, so you can slay in a single task.
