When we were kids, most of us had some sort of degree of structure and discipline in our lives. Most of us were told what time to go to sleep, what time to wake up, we ate dinner at a regular hour, we showered every day, and were even told when we were allowed to play with friends. As we grow older, with the newfound freedom of moving out and starting our own lives, we tend to let go of these structured routines in our lives. Without structure and a predictable routine, many people can become stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed, falling short of their goals and true potential. Carefully designing a routine that works best for you will allow you to be the most productive while reducing the amount of stress in your life. Having a routine can help you establish healthy habits that are particularly important when aspects of your life feel uncertain.
The Benefits Of Having A Structured Routine In Your Life
Research has shown that having a routine in your life can improve your mental health and help you better manage stress and anxiety. Some people may view having a routine as boring and rigid and prefer living a whimsical, on-the-edge-of-your-seat type of life. However, designing and executing a daily routine is the path to productivity, happiness, and fulfilling your true potential. Here are some benefits of implementing a structured routine in your life:
- Lowers stress levels
- Helps you to take better care of your health
- You will feel more productive
- You will feel more focussed
- Develops good daily habits
How To Create A Routine
The key is to create a structured routine and a sense of predictability to your day. Of course, your schedule will change from day to day, but some certain habits and routines are consistent in your life such as eating breakfast and going to sleep. Structuring your day also helps you fight off the urge to procrastinate on a project or activity that you have been dreading. It also allows you to accomplish basic tasks efficiently every day to allow more time to schedule other tasks you wish to accomplish. While it is important to get the essentials done, be sure to incorporate things you can look forward to such as watching an episode of your favorite show on Netflix. These little rewards will help you stay upbeat and focussed when you are working on a task that is not as exciting.
Just like trying to create a new habit, starting and sticking to a routine can take some time and effort in the beginning. If you are unsure what to implement into your routine or how to create a routine that will maximize your potential, consider hiring a life coach. A lifestyle coach will be able to help you identify your goals and what you want to achieve out of a structured routine. They will also be able to give you insight into how to stick to your routine to help you become the best version of yourself both mentally and physically. Wellness and life coaches can help you find balance in your life and can give you the tools to help you thrive and limit the amount of stress in your life.
Find Balance In Your Life With The Help Of A Wellness Coach
Structuring your day and implementing a routine will help you feel more organized which helps you be more proactive and in control in the face of a stressful situation. While a routine helps you develop good habits that are in line with achieving your full potential, it also helps eradicate bad habits that do not serve you well. With a routine, you will be able to slowly replace these bad habits with good ones through repetition. Everyone is unique and has different goals, needs, desires, and resources. That is why it is extremely important to develop your own routine after carefully identifying the goals you wish to achieve. The rewards to be reaped are definitely worth the effort.
