It's The Bearded Man 197. Create Effortless Routines : Plan Ahead by Picking a Time, Day of Week and Place to Complete It
Make your routines effortless. Come up with a plan by picking a day of week, time of day and where the routine will take place and watch how much easier it is to show up consistently. Locking it onto our calendar, we no longer wait for motivation to hit us to complete the routine. We just follow the schedule and get to it when it arrives. Today we’re going to dive into the four steps to make any and all routines effortless.
Routines are our personal accountability partner to consistently show up and work on our habits, goals, passion projects etc. In order to make these routines effortless, we need to pay attention to when we’re most excited to complete these routines and schedule them into our lives respectfully. That way when it comes time to get to work, we’re setting ourselves up for success to show up and get it done.
3 steps to create effortless routines :
- 1. Pick a day or days of the week that works best to complete the routine. It’s totally up to you, just make it the easiest possible day to complete the task.
- 2. Choose a time of day that feels best to complete it. It will vary based on what the routine is so continue to test & try different times until you find that sweet spot.
- 3. Decide where the routine will take place ahead of time so you know exactly where to be and it will help you mentally and physically show up prepared. If adjustments on location need to be made, pivot accordingly.
Challenge for the listeners
- Take 10 minutes within the next 24hrs and consider some of your routines. Do you just do them when you feel like it? Do you notice you enjoy doing certain routines more depending on time of day or day of week you complete them? Is there a certain place you find helps make you most comfortable to drop into it and get into a flow? If possible, schedule out these routines into your life and know the day of week, time of day and where to do them ahead of time. I will help you stay accountable and consistent.
