Recently I was thinking about how I'm always in a rush to go somewhere and sometimes I forget little things. I realized all these little things add up and if you can make five tiny areas of your life better then the rest of the day will be easier.
1. Always keep a lip balm in your jacket and bag pockets
This one I learnt from the fabulous Jim Chapman. Every time you buy a new bag or jacket then buy a tiny cheap lip balm to put in it. This is especially useful during winter times when my lips get very chapped and dry and horrible (seriously, I think I have a condition)
2. Sleep with your hair in plaits
This is the kind of thing I wish someone had told me about earlier, basically putting your hair in plaits has load of benefits and no downsides, you wake with tangle free, natural looking waves, it takes five seconds to style in the morning and it keeps your hair out your face.
3. Buy loads of mints
Every time I go to Tesco I find myself wandering down the confectionery aisle, and no not looking for chocolates (well, that to) but for big packs of mints and gum. I must get through about ten packs of gum a week, I keep one my handbag, one in my school bag, one on my desk. I always have a packet handy because if I ever have bad breath, need to del stress or trick my body into thinking I'm eating this is the way to go.
4. Pack your bag the night before.
You have no idea the amount of times that I've slept in, been running late and wish I'd packed my bag the night before. Now every time I'm in a rush instead of running around searching for everything I just grab my bag and run out the door. Easy!
5. Buy a wallplanner
My final tip is definitely my favourite on, buy a wallplanner. Mines is really cute, has a sticky back so you can move it around without nails and I bought it from Coles. These are so good you just write down all your appointments, meetings, homework assignments and anything like that so that each morning you can check it and you know what you have to do.
