    2. Add one personal item to your work to-do list each day.
    3. Keep a “Praise” folder in your email inbox.
    4. Carry a water bottle with you everywhere you go.
    5. Don’t go to sleep angry at the people you care about.
    6. Invest in quality, non-processed, organic food.
    7. Limit the junk food you bring into your house.
    8. Leave your phone on silent and upside down at all times.
    9. Write out a physical to-do list before you go to bed.

      it can even apply to roommates, parents, etc. My family and I (when I was living with them) always did that. If we were fighting in the evening we would say we love each other and say we're sorry and then the next day would try to resolve the issues.

      Instant groggy feeling is gone and it is so much easier, to not just get back into bed.

    Chapters:
    0:40 - put alarm on opposite side of bedroom, so don't endlessly snooze
    1:12 - add 1 personal item to your work TODO list, to help work/life balance
    2:08 - save complementary emails for future encouragement, and to prove good performance to bosses
    3:23 - carry water bottle with you everywhere, to remind you to stay hydrated and curb cravings for snacks
    4:19 - never go to bed angry at your partner, so issues don't linger and grow
    5:17 - buy high quality, minimally processed organic food, to improve quality of life (see Fed Up, Food Inc)
    6:15 - don't bring junk food into your house, or limit it, to avoid constant temptation. only buy moderate amounts when truly desired
    7:19 - leave phone on silent and upside down all the times, so can focus and be productive
    8:08 - write physical TODO list each night before bed, place next to phone. helps stay motivated and have structure for next day. start day with intention
    9:00 - take at least 10 minutes every day to be (mentally) still. meditate, go for walk, listen to music, be quiet, doing nothing.

Just wanted to let you know that thanks to all of suggestions, I have finally started running this channel where I teach Italian and talk about language learning, and I've been doing it consistently for the past 8 months, something that I didn't think I could do!!
    Improvement really comes from very small tweaks in our everyday life, which is good because nobody needs to completely turn their life upside down in one day even tho we often think we need to!
    Keep going strong, 3M are so close and you deserve all of them!!

    On the water thing:
    Don't know where this came from, but you _do not_ need 8 cups of water a day, individual needs vary widely.
    Drinking too much water can strip micronutrients and electrolytes from your system and leave you worse off.
    Drink when you're *_thirsty_* (by all means have water readily available when you are, which is Matt's point), and be sure to have plenty of sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate as these will help you from becoming dehydrated.

    When it comes to "Don’t go to sleep angry at the people you care about", I think it depends. If you get frustrated or upset with your partner late at night, sometimes it could be better to get some rest and re-evaluate your feelings in the morning. Bringing it up when both of you are tired is much more likely to lead to an argument. If you give yourself some time to rest and calm down, it's often easier to have a calm and productive talk about it.

    I appreciate the genuine recommendation for quality food. Investing in drinking clean, mineral water and eating organic pasture raised/grass fed/wildcaught foods has made a real difference in my health. It’s twice as expensive, but I know the animals were raised humanely on a farm eating quality foods and frolicking in the sunshine AND it tastes so much better and I feel so much better. My thyroid is very sensitive to halogens in the water supply, and I was able to heal hypothyroidism with quality water and seafood/fish after being a vegetarian for 10 years. When you can afford the quality option, slowly start integrating those options into your budget and diet wherever possible. An investment in local farmers and your health is nearly priceless.
