You’re the main protagonist of your life, who is supposed to deal with whatever life brings your way. Each day is a grind for you, and the decisions that you make today, define your future. Therefore, you need to be in the right frame of mind and motivated while making any personal or financial decisions.
To help you live life to the fullest and without any regrets, here are ten things that you need to take care of, in life.
1. Set a Plan
Often your day starts and ends in a flurry, making you feel as if you are unable to be on top of things. This could dampen your spirit and drastically bring down your productivity.
Therefore, you need to plan your day, at least a night before, by writing down all tasks that you need to complete the next day. Jotting down a to-do list will help you make sure that you allocate your time to every task in-hand.
Moreover, you can identify and prioritize tasks, hours before you set down to do them. This way, you will feel prepared, and hence, motivated to seize the day.
2. Right Start

The first challenge is to get up early every day if you want to start your day on a high note. Even if you feel that getting up is an uphill task, you should stick to your resolve and keep at it, turning it into a habit.
Getting up early will enable you to do things with a sense of knowing calm. This way, you will feel positive from within and have already taken care of trivial things, before the world even wakes up. You can stretch, drink a glass of water, and enjoy a hearty breakfast, much before others leave their bed.
3. Dress Well
How you look on the outside, contributes significantly to your mood and attitude. Therefore, you need to take time to dress up well for whatever occasion you’re heading to – work, parties, or vacation. For instance, by putting a pleasant scent and wear comfortable footwear, you can feel much more confident in your workplace, instead of wearing plain formals.
4. Spend Some Time Alone
There are times when we feel drained even before half the day is over. It is because you use up most of your energy, upfront before also getting into a rhythm. Which is why you feel dull or demotivated at times.
What you can do here is to take out some time every day and be there with yourself. You can use this time to either reflect, plan or indulge in things that bring joy. Penning down your thoughts is one way you can feel light and make space for fresh ideas and feelings in your mind.
5. Stay connected with Loved Ones
Even a 5-min, a heart-to-heart conversation with your loved ones every day can make you feel elated and joyful for the entire day. Their love, support and belief in you always fill you with a renewed sense of determination. Whether it is about calling up your parents and siblings who live away from you now or pouring your heart out to your best friend, you can feel motivated when you connect with people close to you every day.
6. Exercise and Eat well Daily
In today’s time and age, we face several health issues, primarily due to our sedentary lifestyles and increasing dependency on processed foods. If not taken care of, these health issues can aggravate in not time, affecting our daily lives and peace of mind. Thankfully, we can prepare ourselves, both physically and mentally, against these health ailments, by indulging in regular exercising and eating well-balanced meals

Equally important, is to incorporate portions of different fresh fruits, vegetables, and calcium-rich dairy products, into your diet, so that your body gets all vital nutrients and does not feel low on energy.
7. Practice Gratitude
Another thing that can help you feel motivated daily is acknowledging all the good things that you have in life. For this, you can either reach out to people and thank them genuinely, or think of ways to give back, to create a positive circle.
Practicing gratitude will uplift you by filling your inner self with contentment.

Constantly exposing yourself to social media saps you of your energy. It also makes you compare yourself to other people who may be doing better than you. However, what will help you perform at your highest level is motivation. To stay upbeat; therefore, avoid too much use of social media. Instead, use that time to create something of value.
9. Write down your Thoughts
Develop a habit of writing down your thoughts, so that the next day, you can start anew. You may not necessarily write in a notepad but can even write in your phone’s memo. However, this habit will help you keep track of where you’re going emotionally.
10. Take proper sleep
