1. Start The Day With A Task Completed

One of the most important things to do in your day is to start it off right. Now, you've probably heard it several times by now, but starting off right is a lot more significant in creating a poductive day than you may think!

Starting off the day well doesn't mean skipping breakfast, or sleeping in for for 2 hours extra; it means doing what's best for your body. Alot of things like this don't typically have just a one size-fits-all method, but there are also some things that work for people more often than not.(hence this top-5 list!)

Personally, for me, I always like to start off with a task completed, so I make my bed. Something simple enough, but little accomplishments like this build up throughout the day. So why not start right at the beginning? I always like to make my bed, for this reason, and if you ever have a bad day, you'll come home to a made bed too! - Admiral Mc.Raven

2. Create A Morning Routine

Typically, starting off the day without anything planned to happen is also the start to an empty day. If you want to start things off on the right foot, then look into creating a routine, not only to help you remember important daily tasks to complete; but this also helps you to continuosly accomplish more daily goals.

After making my bed, the rest of my routine consists of washing my face, brushing my teeth, using meditation to de-stress, etc. Meditation can actually be a big part of starting a day off right, we reccomend checking out our article on meditation! It also involves creating my goals for the entire day too, where I can prepare to crush more goals; conveniently bringing us to our next thing on the list!

3. Set Your Day's Goals

Along with setting all of these longer-term goals that your financial advisor or even parents tell you about, what about thinking smaller, short term? You see, the only way to acheive such far-away goals is through continuosly working towards them everyday. If you can't do this, well then just throw in the towel already.

I'm kidding, off course! That's where this top tips list comes into play to help you with those goals too! Along with starting off your day completing your first tasks, it's important to then start looking into the bigger picture, even if it's 'just for a day.' Each and every day adds up though, so making them collectively count is important!

As I've said previously, I like to start planning out my goals for the day right after completing my daily routine. This list is in order by how you should complete things, if you couldn't tell by now. I personally just go on my computer, and write down my personal, ad work goals for the day. Now, writing morning and afternoon goals could do it for you, as well as just plain-old sticky notes. Either way, you need need to be doing this in order to stay on top of your game!
