You may have to start with one. And get really good at it. Then move on to another and build that into your day. It can take some time. Stick with it. It will be worth it over the years.

Get Your Costs Down
If you would like more calm in your life, then get your costs down. Most of what you buy could be foregone or purchased with a cheaper alternative.
This goes for clothes especially but also works for food, travel and entertainment.
Decision Making Is A Superpower
Those who can make quick decisions will succeed sooner in life. You can usually change a decision if you need to later. However, making a decision is critical.
Too many people prevaricate and hope they won’t have to make the tough decisions. Sometimes even easy decisions, like ordering dinner at a restaurant, can take too much time and thought power.
Practice making quick decisions each day this week. It’s a muscle that you can develop.
Plan!
Few people want to plan for later life and ageing but the sooner you do it, the easier and better it is.
Don’t leave the tough decisions about DNRs, funeral arrangements, inheritance, finances, POA, care, assisted living, long term care, and medical decisions to the last minute. You’ll be too tired and disinterested to do it. You might not be thinking straight or you may have dementia.
Plan ahead while you’re younger and energetic and clear headed. You can thank me later.
FYI: Amazon has a deep sale on and my book can be purchased for the price of a coffee but could help you become a happy millionaire! (Great value!!)
Grab a copy or two as gifts for some friends and family! At these prices they won’t last long. I just saw a half dozen purchased in the last half an hour. And there are now less than a dozen left! Act now!

Fun!
Have as much good, clean fun as you can! Ensure you get your essentials done first (school, work, relationship, finances), but then squeeze in as much fun as you can.
Do Things Before You’re Asked
People are extra grateful and appreciative when you do things without them needing to tell you or remind you.
Receiving flowers or a gift has a lot more impact if you haven’t had to ask for them. Same with doing dishes and being romantic. What could you be more proactive about?
The Final Push!!
It’s back to school and back to work. You have only 3 months to get everything done before Christmas, (school) holidays and New Year brings down the curtain on this 2023rd year.
It’s now a manic sprint to achieve those goals by year end!! 12 weeks!! Let’s Go!!!
Get Help While You Can
Whether you need help at work, at home or for personal reasons, arrange that help as soon as you can.
The earlier the better and it will help you grow faster, tidy quicker, plan better and have things in place before you really need them.
Fashions Come And Go
Each person might think this new fashion hasn’t happened before. They may assume they are the first ones ever to discuss this or see it evolve.
Eventually, people see enough happen over and over and write a song about it. “It’s all the same, only the names’ll change” – Bon Jovi.
History is a great thing to study when you want to learn about the future.
Get Balanced Research
If you notice your source is always biased one way, you should find some new sources of information.
Do you want quality and accurate information or do you just want to feel good about the bias you’re happy with?
