1
One of my favorite quotes that I like to reflect on is, nothing changes if nothing changes.
2
And let me tell you what that means.
3
If you want something about your life to change, but you're not willing to change your daily routines and habits, then how are you going to get to that goal?
4
If you're constantly complaining that you're feeling tired all the time, but you don't change your sleep schedule, you don't change your morning, your night routine, of course you're not going to feel any better.
5
It is so important to have a good daily routine
6
and implement habits that are going to change your life for the better.
7
I'm not saying you necessarily have to do every single one that I talk about in this video, two and eventually maybe one day you'll reach all 10 but it will slowly but surely change your life.
8
Make sure to subscribe and I'll have all my socials linked in the bio.
9
Let's get into this list.
10
Number one is getting sunlight in the morning.
11
This is an underrated tool in making your life the best you can make it okay.
12
It doesn't matter if it's cloudy outside even
13
if it's cloudy you're still getting more sunshine than you would just sitting in your room all day.
14
Stick your head out the window, sit in the backyard, the front yard, go for a walk.
15
For some reason I've always felt shy to go out on a Hey, don't feel shy.
16
Getting sunlight in the morning stops the production of melatonin in your body.
17
So this is gonna make it way easier for you to fall asleep at night.
18
Cause now your body knows like, okay, it's morning time.
19
It's time to get up.
20
Let's get ready for the day.
21
And this is such a minimal effort habit to get into.
22
Open all of the blinds, literally just stand outside for five minutes.
23
Like I don't even need to leave my property.
24
You know what I mean?
25
I will do this.
26
I will open up my apartment door, stand out there with like my coffee, my matcha.
27
And I don't care if my neighbors judge me because I'm getting my sunshine.
28
going in my brain, okay?
29
The whole point of implementing our healthy habits is that we're gonna kind of cheat science to make ourselves feel better, okay?
30
If we're not meeting our basic necessities, then of course we're gonna be feeling sad and tired, etc. So let's get our baseline and our foundation feeling right and then we can kind of move on from there.
31
Number two is to follow the two -minute rule.
32
This applies the most when we're talking about cleaning or tidying up your space.
33
If you're avoiding doing something but it only takes less than two minutes, then just do it.
34
For example, if when you get home and you take off your jacket
35
and you usually just like throw it on a chair, we're not doing that anymore, okay?
36
It takes less than two minutes to go hang it up on the coat rack, so do it.
37
Your future self is gonna thank you, and that's something else that we need to think about.
38
We need to look out for our future selves and make sure that in the morning we're feeling good, seeing that our space is nice and clean, knowing that we got our work done for the day, all those kinds of things.
39
I feel like sometimes with this rule, I will have the mindset of like, if it takes less than two minutes, just do it.
40
like 30 minutes because i'm like oh this takes less than two minutes
41
and this takes less than two minutes
42
which honestly it's not the worst habit to have it's definitely helpful
43
but if you're not in the mood to overextend it don't do it choose one
44
or two things that you know you can put away really quickly
45
and having the clearer space is going to really clear your
46
mind having less clutter is going to help you focus a
47
lot better think a lot clearer did something productive like tidying up your space
48
and it's kind of like something you can check off of your to -do list
49
which i feel like that just brings so much dopamine and happy chemicals to the brain accomplish something.
50
Having little accomplishments through the day is going to really build up your confidence, build up your trust in yourself, because you should be proving to yourself that you can do things.
51
Whether it seems easy or not, you still did it and you should still be proud of yourself.
52
Number three is to spend at least 30 minutes a day on a hobby.
53
I talk about hobbies all the time and if you need ideas for hobbies, I have a lot of videos that you can watch.
54
But if we think about how much time we spend on our phones throughout the day, even if we're just taking like a five -minute break from work or from school, those little five -minute breaks add up where we're just
55
own and it can be replaced by a 30 minute break by doing a hobby.
56
I feel like anything arts and crafts is a lot of fun to do for your hobby.
57
I've been doing a lot of embroidering.
58
I love word search.
59
Sometimes I play Animal Crossing, which technically is still a screen, but it is not the same as scrolling and I have a goal and I have ambition in the game.
60
If you want to do something more physical and squeeze in a workout, boxing class, yoga class, anything like that, absolutely make the time for it.
61
Some days are going to be busier than others and you can't necessarily fit
62
decompress that doesn't revolve around scrolling on TikTok or Instagram is
63
so beneficial to the mind and to the body because you're really allowing yourself to relax.
64
And I feel like for me at least, I get really stuck in like productivity mode
65
and my brain is just always on and thinking about what can I do next?
66
How can I improve my next video, my next audition tape?
67
But really so much of the growth that we go through as humans is
68
when we're doing things that we enjoy and we learn about ourselves, we learn about a new craft.
69
You are very deserving of a break so let yourself have something that you like.
70
Number four is to take 10 minutes to tidy up your space every day.
71
A lot of people call this like the night shift where
72
you kind of close up shop for the night in the apartment or your bedroom.
73
This means putting away dishes, putting stuff back where they belong.
74
That way you can wake up in the morning and you have a clean space and it's like, okay, I'm ready to start the day.
75
Everything's like on a fresh new page.
76
You can do this in the morning as well, whatever fits for your schedule and whatever makes you feel best.
77
When I do this at night, better when I do this.
78
And sometimes you're not going to complete all of the tidying
79
and then it's going to feel like you're just doing a really big cleanup, which isn't always the vibe.
80
So set a 10 minute timer.
81
If you want to go crazy, do 15 minutes and just tidy up as much as you can within those 10 to 15 minutes.
82
Honestly, you can get a lot more done than you think you would.
83
I've done this multiple times and I'm always like, dang, I didn't realize it wouldn't take so long to clean up my room.
84
And honestly, every single time I really don't even want to do it.
85
Like I'm not always without fail feel better afterwards.
86
So don't think I'm some kind of like productivity monster, clean girl, that girl that just has my life together because
87
that is not the case and I'm very much taking all of my advice.
88
But if you're also lazy like me, just know that it is possible to push through the laziness and there is a very rewarding feeling on the other side.
89
Number five is to go on a walk every single day.
90
I am not saying that you have to get 10 ,000 steps in a day
91
because honestly that's a lot and it's kind of crazy.
92
If you have a walking pad, this is
93
make the effort to go on a 10 20 minute walk
94
every day doing it in the morning is a great way
95
to start the day i get in a bad habit of getting straight into work
96
when i'm up but it's definitely a good like afternoon break it is
97
so important to get the blood flowing in our bodies even
98
if we don't work out there are just
99
so many benefits to going on a walk
100
and you don't have to go on a walk in a
101
way that's like i'm getting a workout in you can run
102
errands go to the grocery store go to a cafe
103
because i understand not all of us have time to just dilly dally on a walk for half an hour although
104
you're taking in your surroundings, you're being in nature.
105
If you are having a really busy day, maybe instead of grabbing dinner by car, you go ahead and walk.
106
That way you're kind of killing two birds with one stone.
107
Number six is to buy a cute water bottle to motivate you to drink water.
108
I have been awful at maintaining my water intake.
109
It is not something I'm proud of.
110
In fact, I actually think it's quite embarrassing and I don't think you should be proud of it.
111
We are very lucky to have access to clean water.
112
This is one of our basic necessities as humans.
113
Do not neglect it.
114
If family complaining about like, I feel so tired.
115
Oh my God, my head hurts, blah, blah, blah.
116
Obviously there's a lot of factors to that.
117
But if we look at it objectively and it's like, are we meeting all of our necessities?
118
Am I drinking enough water?
119
Am I eating enough food?
120
If the answer is no to one of those, especially the water, then we got to backtrack and just like make sure we're getting our foundations in.
121
When I don't have my water bottle on hand, it is way harder for me to drink
122
just have a huge water bottle with a big chunk of
123
ice in there something about an ice cold water is
124
so absolutely satisfying to me and it makes me want to drink the water
125
and if you want to start like a water bottle collection do
126
that you know have a water bottle for each season anything you can to motivate yourself to drink water
127
because hydration is incredibly important good for your skin good for
128
your mind your mental health your physical health again a basic foundational
129
calling myself out with this one i'm not good at it
130
but that's why i put it on this list
131
because i know a lot of us aren't good at it
132
if you're not getting enough sleep you're not gonna feel good during the day
133
and your body relies on routine so just figure out a time
134
that makes the most sense for you it can be 8
135
p .m it could be 12 a .m depends on your work
136
or school schedule
137
but make sure whatever time you're choosing you at least get
138
eight hours of sleep i'm talking about good quality sleep you sleep throughout the night
139
so make sure that your night routine is pretty solid and Absolutely not.
140
Read a book before bed.
141
Do any of your hobbies.
142
Something very like low energy so you're not hyping yourself up before you go to sleep.
143
Having a consistent time is so helpful because it's going to help your body know once it's time to settle down.
144
Number eight is no phone at meals.
145
I know for a lot of us it's a pretty bad habit to be scrolling while we're eating dinner, breakfast, etc. Just put the phone in another room.
146
Eat in silence.
147
Eat with music in the background.
148
I don't care.
149
Don't do the phone thing.
150
It is so distracting and you're not focused on what you're because your brain's like, what the heck?
151
Did I even eat?
152
I don't remember.
153
Because you're so distracted by all this extra stimuli.
154
Take time, slow it down.
155
I know it's gonna feel weird, but slowly you're gonna get used to it and we don't need to be overstimulated all the time.
156
I promise you it's not helping to be watching TikTok while you're eating.
157
It feels good in the moment, I know, but you don't need it.
158
On a similar note, number nine is to charge your phone away from your bed at night.
159
It is very easy to go and scroll in the morning once you wake up, but if you put your phone in another room, much harder to go and scroll
160
and hopefully it'll just motivate you to get some of your
161
morning routine out of the way before you start checking texts and emails.
162
I've been putting my phone like on my desk where it's not
163
so far out of my reach because I do want to make sure I'm not missing any super important emails.
164
I'll like scroll through the notifications and if nothing looks important then I won't open any of them.
165
Even if I have texts from friends I know it's probably nothing work related
166
so I'll pretty much ignore it and then get straight into my morning routine.
167
I know I can do better than that
168
and I know you can too but that's kind of the way that I'm just personally it.
169
And last but not least is to plan your day the night before.
170
This will prevent you from procrastinating and not knowing what to do during the day
171
because we all have things we need to accomplish, okay?
172
I know I have things to do but
173
if I don't write it down I kind of get jumbled up in my head
174
and then I just end up doing literally nothing which feels horrible.
175
So at night, sometimes in bed, I'll go on my notes app or I'll write it down on my journal
176
and I make a list of all the things that I need to get done the following day.
177
That way I wake up in the morning Absolutely not.
178
You're creating structure for yourself.
179
You're looking out for your future self The more organized we can be in
180
that sense means the more we're going to accomplish
181
And it is incredibly satisfying to check something off of your to -do list Obviously, you don't want to overdo it and give yourself so many tasks
182
that you don't accomplish anything because that's not going to make you feel good
183
And i've fallen victim to this many times I've learned to kind of give myself a break
184
because random things come up and interrupt my day Things
185
that are out of my control will happen
186
So I give myself a handful of things that I know I need to get done
187
try not to overextend myself these days.
188
If you guys like videos like this, let me know in the comments because I love to chat with you guys.
189
I'd love to hear your healthy habits that you like to follow
190
or if there's anything from this list that you're excited to try.
191
I think I personally need to get more sunshine in the morning so that's a journey that I'm going to be starting.
192
I'll have my Instagram and my TikTok linked to the bio and I'll see you next week.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
