Morning Routine Under Quarantine :)

Hello everybody! I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. Last time I wrote about my morning routine was a little less than two years ago and that was during the summer. So this time I am going to write about my morning routine with online school in the month of March.

So I usually wake up between 11 and 12 (I occasionally sleep in until 1 - guilty), but I try to wake up earlier because it makes me feel more motivated to be productive during the day. So after I wake up, I head straight to the bathroom where I brush my teeth, brush and do my hair, and do my skin care routine. I will soon post an updated skin care routine on here so stay tuned!

I then head back to my room to make my bed and change. Before I go downstairs to eat breakfast, I grab my phone to check Google Classroom and my emails to see if my teacher posted any new assignments and if I have any scheduled online meetings for any of my classes. If there are any assignments that I could do right away and don't take a lot of time, I do them before I head down to breakfast. I also try to, but sadly often fail, to exercise before eating. I make sure to exercise every day, especially under quarantine, but I enjoy it more if I workout before I eat breakfast because it gives me the feeling that I have already done something productive during the day. While I am eating, I make a to-do list of all the things I have to do to make sure that I everything.

After finishing my food and thanking my mom for a delicious breakfast, I go upstairs and take out all the things I have to do during that day. I usually work at my desk in my room, but due to that, it gets messy very quick, so I during this time I try to tidy up as best as I can. I cannot work in a messy environment- I quickly get frustrated, I start to lose my train of thought, and I lose motivation to be productive. So having a clean working environment is key to a successful and productive day. Let me know if you guys want a blog on "How to be Productive"!

Thank you for reading and I hope you have a wonderful productive day!
