20 habits for your 20s
A thread...
Habit 1:
Smile at the mirror
20s is the decade of self doubt. Where we feel inadequate, incomplete, lost.
The simple habit of smiling at the mirror, makes me drop my emotions in that moment.
And acknowledge me, for who I am.
Habit 2:
Make your bed
Starts your day with a small accomplishment.
Growing up, the 4 of us used to sleep together in the drawing room, since it had a cooler.
It was my job to make everyone's bed.
It was the last thing I did every night and the first every morning.
Still do it.
Habit 3:
Take the first 30 mins of your morning, for yourself
Don't start it with your phone.
Or with a person.
Or with a book.
Or the toilet.
Just you, your thoughts, some lasting memory of your dreams.
You will appreciate the power of slowing down.
Habit 4:
Call people by their names
Few things makes a person feel included, than hearing their name in a conversation.
Remember, consciously, to include their names, as you speak to them.
You will earn their respect, their attention and their trust.
