Your Best Daily Habits

[gcshapero]

This isn’t exactly a religious threat, but religion will likely appear in here – it’s not limited to it.

What are you best daily habits that you’ve adapted?

I make a daily list every day. I include all of my responsibilities I intend to accomplish, all of my little goals that lead to bigger goals, and all of my recreation and leisure. It allows me to map out the day I want to live.

The list usually includes cleaning, exercise, prayer, contacting a friend or loved-one, reading for at least 20 minutes, work, drinking a gallon of water, and maybe seeing someone(s).

I have gotten into the habit of praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet every morning and not allowing myself to eat until I have prayed it.

My hope is to adapt the Ignatian Daily meditations at the end of the day.

drinking a gallon of water,

I’d be running to the little CAFers’ room all day

Thread? Lol

Thread? Lol

Ha, good catch. I could go back and edit that, but I’d like people to know that I am religiously threatening them, or that I threat them religiously.

I’m hoping that my best daily habit is discipline. The discipline to do what needs to be done, to not be a waster of time, energy, money, and food.

i just realized i don’t have any good daily habits other than taking a shower, washing my hair and making my bed. after that, anything goes!

Thank God at least those are on the agenda. On certain days when I work from home, it’s easy to skip the first two.

Haha, I used to be older.
Any advice on things I ought to include in my daily habits?

Saying a short morning prayer right after I get out of bed, then saying the rest later.
I feel the first thing one should do on getting up, is thank God for the day and say good morning to Him.

Praying through the day.
Making myself smile when I don’t feel like it…after some time the mood catches up with the smile

My best daily habits: reading my Magnificat and saying morning prayers.
Like Seven Sorrow I shower daily and put n make up even if I’m not going anywhere
I’m a neat freak so I do tidy up my domicile very morning because as cannot stand coming home to especially a messy kitchen

 

[7_Sorrows]

i am the same way about kitchens. i don’t like waking up in the morning to a messy
kitchen and i don’t like coming home to one.

 

[metanoia1]

Developing the ability to listen rather than speak and breathe through the moment.

at my workplace, i say hello to everyone i pass

i also do this when out if there are not a lot of people.
