Sometimes it can feel like you have a million things to do and no time to do them. Instead of stressing about what a hectic schedule you have, follow these five tips to simplify your daily routine and organize your day for a more productive approach.
5 Tips & Tricks To Simplify Your Daily Routine
But first, a few things to remember…
Be Flexible. It’s okay if you don’t get everything you wanted to get done or if something unpredictable comes up and throws your entire day off. Don’t let the little things sabotage your entire day.
Do What Feels Right For You. Not a morning person? Don’t force yourself to sign up for a morning workout class that you know you’re going to snooze through. Start the day slow and do what feels right for you and your schedule.
Don’t Overbook Yourself. Keep your to-do list manageable and prioritize what needs to get done now over what you can tackle another day.
#1 Prioritize a Good Sleep Schedule
Having a quality sleep schedule—falling asleep and waking up at the same time every day and getting roughly seven hours of sleep—can be extremely beneficial for your mental health and help you feel more well-rested and ready to tackle the day.
#2 Plan Out Your Day
In the morning, take 5 minutes to yourself to plan out your day. In a journal, on your phone, or just creating a mental checklist can be a great way to prioritize what needs to get done and keep you on track throughout the day. Don’t be afraid to plan the little things too! Making time to drink your morning coffee and complete your daily Wordle can help you feel centered as you tackle the other things on your to-do list.
#3 Dress To Impress
As cozy as it is puttering around the house in your loungewear, stepping out of your pajamas in the morning and into something just as comfortable but a little more presentable will set your day on the right track.
It doesn’t have to be elaborate; slip on a versatile Tunic Tank Dress that makes you feel good and look put together.
No time to put a whole outfit together? No problem! That's the beauty of a One-Done Dress! No stress, just grab and go, but still look chic and feel supported in comfort.

#4 Clean As You Go
Little messes that pile up easily throughout the day can quickly turn into a big mess at the end of the day…if you don’t stop to tidy them up as you go.
Cleaning up as you go and picking up after each task can help minimize your clutter at the end of the day when the last thing you want to do is clean! Put things like keys, shoes, and headphones all back in their place throughout the day so that you can find them easier next time you go looking.
If it will take you less than a minute now, do it. That little bit of time will add up to an uncluttered, more organized space in the long term, saving you time. Plus, a clean space supports a clear and focused mind, helping you concentrate on the task at hand instead of getting distracted by clutter.
#5 Prep for Tomorrow
Do things for yourself today that you will appreciate tomorrow—whether that’s by making overnight oats, packing up leftovers for lunch, preparing your work bag, setting out your gym clothes, plugging your phone and other electronics in to charge, or just taking some time to reflect on the day. Your future self will thank you!
