My evening routine

Everyone always talks about their morning routines. What they do to make their day a successful day. I think the evening is just as important. In my opinion there’s something so nice about ending the day the right way. Let’s talk about how I like to spend my evenings.

I’ve talked about it before that I like to be productive in the mornings. I am a morning person, I like the extra hours you get when you wake up early and can take the time to get ready. When I’ve done everything I’ve wanted I can go to work/school. When I get back it is usually pretty late. This is when my evening starts.

Because I get up relatively early I don’t have that much energy left in the evening. I like to come home, cook myself dinner, eat, clean the house, and then wind down. I either watch a movie, a few episodes of a series or a bit of YouTube. I don’t like to make it too late, so I go to bed pretty early. But before I do that, I like to plan out my next day. I like to write down what time I want to get up and be ready, then I look at everything I have planned to do that day and I see if I can do them in the morning. The key is to not have too much planned, because then you’ll set yourself up for failure. That’s not going to make you feel any good. So usually I try to stick to two or three little tasks. You’re going to feel so good when you’ve done something useful before you have actually started the day.

When I’ve planned everything for the next day it is time to sleep. And when that alarm clock goes off in the morning, you know exactly what you need to do, which makes getting out of your bed so much easier. I am telling you, it works. When you have a purpose to get up early, you’ll find it that much easier to not hit that snooze button.
