Stay Active

It should come as no surprise that staying physically active has lifelong benefits. Just 15 minutes of exercise per day can increase your life expectancy by three years!

Don’t Smoke

It’s never too late to quit. Even quitting in your 80’s may provide benefits. Smoking cigarettes is strongly linked to serious diseases.

Social Networking

Researchers proved that maintaining healthy social networks can help you live 50% longer. That means hanging out with your friends can make you live longer!

Sleep Well

Developing a good sleeping pattern is crucial for regulating cell functions and helping your immune system fight off diseases.

Eat Nuts

Several studies have proven that nuts can prevent heart disease, diabetes, inflammation, and more. Adding peanuts, walnuts, or almonds to your diet may increase your lifespan.

Prioritize Happiness

We all know that our mental health has a huge effect on our physical health. But did you know that feeling happy can significantly increase your longevity? Avoid stress and anxiety and try to stay optimistic.

This is often easier said than done. As we’re only humans, we rely on two important factors to stay productive: motivation and discipline.

Following these three steps will help you stay on track and be productive every single day.

Know What to Ignore

You can’t do it all — at least not at the same time. Setting priorities and focusing on them, ignoring everything else at the same time, is the key.

Measure Progress But Don’t Be Obsessive

It can be useful to measure your progress and see where you can improve the metrics, especially in the beginning, but don’t focus on it too much and sacrifice the quality of your work.

Set Challenges

Gamification is a powerful tool. Give yourself challenges that will push you to do more work and give you a reason to break your own records.

Mini-Spa Routine

You’ll feel better on Monday knowing that your nails, hair, and skin look perfect. It’s time for a deep conditioner, manicure, and a face mask!

Pick an Outfit

Never underestimate the power of a ready outfit for Monday mornings. It will help you start your day without getting a headache first thing in the morning.

Meal Prep

Now would be a great time to prepare meals for the week, but even getting something for Monday alone is enough to start with. Get ready to conquer Monday with one less thing to worry about!

Better Communication

It’s worth celebrating if your communication with your loved ones has improved. Regularly calling your parents or checking up on friends is not something that’s implied.

Productivity Routines

Have you successfully developed a morning or evening routine that helps you stay accountable? Celebrate it! Don’t think it’s trivial or not important enough.

Less Time on the Phone

Screen addiction is real and we salute you if you’ve gained control over it. You deserve a treat for that.

Learning New Things

It is so important to continue learning and growing once we’re out of school and not everybody does this. Well done!

Tackling Clutter

If you’re successfully throwing trash out of your life, don’t think that it shouldn’t be celebrated. It’s so liberating and important to do it!

You’ll Probably Have to Wait

Good tattoo artists are usually busy so be patient and don’t be tempted to go somewhere else instead. You want the best, right?

It Won’t Be Cheap

A good tattoo isn’t cheap. You can count on paying anywhere from $50 for something very small to much bigger amounts depending on what you want.

Get Familiar with the Shop

Make sure to stop by the shop before your appointment to check if it’s clean, to see their previous work, and to consult the artist about the design you want.

Listen to the Artist

If your tattoo artist has a suggestion for you, it’s probably the best to listen to them, you may get something way better than you initially wanted.

A Long Bath

Nothing beats 20-30 minutes in a hot bath after a long day or week. Fill it up with all the little luxuries you want such as bath salts and bubbles, because you deserve it!

A Coffee Out

If you’re always hesitating to grab that fancy coffee because you can’t justify its price, it’s time to splurge and enjoy it once in a while.

Meditation

The alone time you can spend in silence is a true luxury, so look at it at the ultimate reward.

Go Outside

Instead of eating lunch while answering emails, allow yourself a real break and go outside.

Read a Book

We know, there are many things you could be doing instead, but reading a good book will remind you what relaxation looks like.

Buy Flowers

Who says you can’t buy flowers for yourself? A bouquet on your table will make you smile for days. Bonus tip: let delivery bring flowers to your office and feel special for a day.

Go to Bed Early

And actually sleep instead of browsing social media. You’ll feel like a new person in the morning.

When you love something and do it as a hobby, you probably don’t give yourself deadlines and don’t punish yourself if you don’t meet them on time. If you would do the same thing as a job, someone would constantly be over your head, checking your progress and productivity. It’s like using your favorite song as a morning alarm sound – you’ll quickly start associating it with negative emotions and start to resent it.

Many people face an important decision at some point in their life: should they take a job they love for less money or do something else and earn more. The answer should be pretty straightforward, especially if you’re young: work for the money now, so you’ll have more time and freedom to pursue your passion later in life without the pressures of daily life.

What do you think about this? Would you rather do a job you love or a job that pays more?

Morning Routine

Getting up early and a good breakfast will set your day on the right track. Sleeping in may feel good in the moment but it will leave you feeling like you’ve wasted your day.

Stop the Distractions

There will always be distractions, especially if you don’t live alone, but what you can do is to stop the most obvious ones, like the TV in the background and notifications on your phone. 

Take Breaks

For the best results, take short breaks often enough that you don’t burn out. Try the Pomodoro technique, which makes you work for 25-minute batches with short breaks in between.

Children

It may be tempting to delay this conversation, but if you’re not on the same page about having kids it’s not likely that your relationship will last.

Money

No matter who’s earning more in your relationship, you shouldn’t assume anything. Have an honest conversation about handling money in your future marriage if you want it to succeed.

Relationships

You can learn a lot about other person from their relationships with others — their parents, exes, strangers, etc. Any red flags? Discuss them sooner rather than later!

Problems

Problems and difficulties will happen and you want to know how your partner reacts to them. It’s unrealistic to expect perfection, but you should at least know what you’re getting into.
