I started to reform my personal life since we knew we were going to have a child in March this year. So last year, right after we found out about the pregnancy, I rebuilt my morning routine and created a solid habit out of it.
As I said in another post (which I can't find)
Morning routine is key!
I did several iterations so as not to overwhelm myself.
First, making my bed every morning.
Second, doing my workout right after.
Third, eating a healthy breakfast and clearing my mind before going to work.
After practicing this routine for over 3 months, I started to look at what I could change next. Because habits fail for most people because you need more than three months to really pick up the habit.
Around Christmas I build on my habit of educating myself properly every day. Most of the time it's a podcast or an article. But taking at least 40 minutes each day to educate myself is the goal I think I can keep.
Now that we are less than two months away from our girl, I want to get the next habit of cutting work for my job out of my personal time.
So I have reduced the amount of work I do at home and plan to continue to do so.
I am optimizing my tests and exams and have already asked SN for input. That's the habit I want to achieve in the next two months. Leave work at work.
