Mornings do not have to feel chaotic. With a few small adjustments, you can create a routine that helps you move through the first part of your day with more confidence and less rushing.

Start by preparing a few things the night before. Choose your outfit, pack your bag, review your calendar, or set out anything you will need in the morning. These small steps can remove several decisions from your morning and make it easier to get started.

It also helps to keep your routine simple. Instead of trying to do too much before the day begins, focus on the essentials. A short checklist, a consistent wake-up time, and a few quiet minutes can make a big difference.

The goal is not to create a perfect morning. The goal is to create a repeatable routine that gives you a calmer start and helps you feel more prepared for the day ahead.

Do you feel stressed? Worried? Cranky or impatient? Overwhelmed?

While these feelings could be caused by your work, they could also be caused by the way you have your office arranged.

Often, just simple changes in your office layout or decor can improve the way you feel, and that can lead to improved productivity.

Here are a few tips to making your office workspace more enjoyable:

Arrange your desk so you have a 'commanding position' in the room (where you can view most of the room, especially the entry door, while seated at your desk)

Remove all clutter from your line of sight

Arrange your computer monitor so there is not a bright window behind the monitor

Create 'ambiance' by adding plants and favorite mementos

Use a fan to create 'white noise' to mask outside noises

Find and fix the one thing that aggravates you the most in your office Just a few minor changes like these can often make all the difference in how you feel while in your workspace.
