Take Initiate
Try it in small steps for
starters. You are much more
likely to make it happen if
you undertake some activity
that doesn't require a big
restructuring of your life.

13. Mind set
Make a list of the benefits
Direct or indirect consider
benefit of every action, by
this way not only you feel
less guilty about doing
something that at first might
have seemed selfish, but
you'll actually be more likely
to do it when you realize
how it will benefit others.

Wait for others feedback
After a week or two, get

20. Actions
Shut off your Black Berry,
Imate
At-least power off 30 minutes
each day, whenever works
best. Yes, this alone can
count as recess. Just
shutting off the stream can
leave you feeling more
focused when you turn it

back on.

21. Actions
Take a yoga class.
One hour a week is a pretty
small step. What's the benefit to
others? Well, if yoga relaxes
you, maybe you'll be a more
pleasant boss, parent, partner,
or friend to be around. And
improving your health and
posture might mean less time
absent from work.

22. Actions
Treat yourself to a weekly
food splurge at a farmer's
market or local co-op.
You have to buy food anyway, so
there's little extra time involved, and if
you're someone who enjoys cooking
and eating, preparing a meal can be a
relaxing and creative activity. And it's
just more fun when you get to use
fresher or more unusual foods.
Benefits?

23. Actions
Read a book for fun.
Try to set aside 20 minutes a day, at
first. How will a little light reading on
your part make things better for
others? Maybe it will make you a
more interesting conversationalist for
your friends, or a role model for your
kids.

24. Actions
Do a crossword during your
lunch break.
Studies have shown that
regularly doing crossword
puzzles helps strengthen the
mind and may delay the onset of
dementia or forgetfulness.
Taking at least a 15 minute
break during lunch will make
you fresher for the afternoon.
