2. Strength Training 3-4x per week
If you have access to a gym this would be lifting weights.
If no gym: Bodyweight workouts.
You can also invest in a few bands and dumbbells for under 100$.
Here is a list of bodyweight exercises as a starting point: https://twitter.com/thehdmovement/status/1289263984827174912?s=20

3. No Phone for the first hour of the day
Donât open your eyes first thing in the morning to a screen.
Please donât, for obvious reasons.
I personally like to go for a 20 min when I wake up.
This is good because you get sunlight + movement.

You avoid notifications and get to be in ânature.â
Itâs great for mental clarity and mood.

4. No phone while working.
Constant notifications break up your focus more than you think.
If you can put your phone away until lunch, you will be doing yourself a huge favor.
Check it right before work, during lunch, and whatever you want to do after your work is done.

Check it right before work, during lunch, and whatever you want to do after your work is done.
But during work hours, being able to go uninterrupted from notifications is significant.
PLUS, you are retraining your focus.
Generally, our focus is all messed up from the constant stream of notifications we get all day every day.

5. Develop one skill or hobby.
Pick 1 skill or hobby youâve wanted to develop.
Only 1.
It can be anything.
Pick 1 skill or hobby youâve wanted to develop.
Only 1.
It can be anything.
A sport, an instrument, web design, whatever.
For example, The one I chose is writing.
You will be working on this skill every single day for 30-60 minutes.
This serves 2 things:
1- in 4 months you will have improved the skill significantly.

2- The constant progress made from day 1 to 120 will give you a sense of fulfillment and achievement from life.
Plus, this can be used to develop a skill that can eventually earn you a full-time income online.
Obviously you will spend more time than 1 hour per day in this case

6. Off-time
20 minutes of off time every day.
You can call it meditation if you want, or mindfulness, or whatever you want to call it.
The point is to be alone.
20 minutes of off time every day.

The point is to be alone.
No phone, no people, no reading.
Just being alone with your thoughts.
It may sound stupid but think about it.
If you find it difficult to spend 20 minutes alone without feeling the NEED to check your phone.
Doesnât that tell you something about yourself?

@naval talks about this topic a lot and was the one that made me realize how important it truly is. https://twitter.com/naval/status/773651350399754240?s=20
7. Less texting
Hear me out.
I'm not telling you to be less social.
In fact, we are doing the opposite.
Instead of texting everyone, make more phone calls.
I'm not sure when we hit this point in society where calling someone is weird now and everyone is just texting.

But the effects of a phone call over text are so much better.
Make it a habit to call a friend, or family member daily.
Maybe, someone you havenât spoken to in a while.
Trust me on this one. It will improve your mood and energy.

8. Eat Clean
Having a clean diet has an impact on so many aspects of our lives.
Youâll lose fat and gain more muscle.
Having a healthier gut = less brain fog and healthier digestion.
You will look better and have clearer skin.

9. Reflect
How do you know what you need to change In order to improve your life?
It's so easy to just go from day to day.
Keep making the same mistakes.
Stuck in an endless cycle.

Reflection is what differentiates the vital changes.
Being able to reflect on your days and make changes based on them.
You can call this journaling if you want but that's besides the point.
Which is to figure out what is working for you and what isnât.

10. Sleep
There is not one single aspect of your life that is not affected by the quality of your sleep.
Sleep is energy.
Better sleep = better life.
Sacrifice sleep and you are only playing yourself.
A good night's sleep MUST be non-negotiable.
