1

Make the bed right after getting up

One thing done before coffee. Weirdly sets the tone.

3

Call your grandparents on Sundays

Fifteen minutes. They remember everything you said last week.

5

Walk after dinner, even just around the block

7

Refill the water glass every time you empty it

2

Phone charges outside the bedroom

4

Two-minute tidy before bed

6

Write down three things from the day

Not gratitude journaling exactly. Just proof the day happened.

8

Say yes to plans you'd usually cancel, once a month
