Positivity is a way of life. The more you do it, the easier it gets. Being positive is like anything else, what you look for you’ll find. We know how important it is to start the day off right. Taking positive actions can set you up for a day full of happiness and stamina.
There are activities you can do from the moment you wake up that will promote positivity all day long. Each day be intentional about the first few hours of the day. As you make choices, be sure to-
- Take care of yourself
- Take care of your home
- Take care of your mind
You can be more positive by noon by focusing on these three things- yourself, your home and your mind. Try these activities to start your day off with a positive bang.
- Take care of yourself- Taking good care of yourself includes making smart, positive choices. Each morning do activities that will set you up for a positive day. Eat right, meditate, exercise, and practice good hygiene. Passing up the opportunities to take care of yourself in the morning can create problems throughout the day. Be sure to allow enough time for your self-care routine in the morning. This can include going to bed early enough, so you have the energy to get up and at ‘em in the morning.
- Take care of your home- One of the benefits of positivity is holding yourself accountable to excellence…not perfection. Excellence leads to confidence and a positive mindset. In the morning, activities like making your bed, caring for pets, cleaning small messes, and doing other homemaking activities can prepare your home for later in the day when your energy levels may be lower. Taking care of your home is a lot like self-care, the more you make your space a priority, the more likely you are to respect it.
- Take care of your mind- What you dwell on tends to set the mood for the day. If you wake up with worries and regrets, it’s hard to feel positive. If you mindlessly click on the television and listen to whatever comes on, you may be filling your mind with nonsense. Take care of your mind. Read material with value, listen to an inspirational podcast or music that is uplifting. Meditate if you need to clear your head and get ready for the day. Do whatever activities fill your mind with hope, encouragement, and wholesome entertainment.
You can set the tone for your entire day by taking care of your body, home, and mind before noon. The activities don’t have to be that large, they simply need to be positive, proactive, and proper for your healthy state of mind.
