8 Ways to Have a Peaceful Organized Morning

In the rush of a morning commute, it can be difficult to stay organized and focused on the day ahead. We start every day with a morning, and it sets the tone.  Intentional steps towards an organized morning routine can ensure that you prioritize time to prepare for the day. With these tips you can start to think about your morning as a way to set yourself up for success.

1. Clear Your Kitchen

Cleaning up your kitchen and living space at night will allow for a peaceful rise to your cup of morning joe. A cleaned-up space is a happy space. One for a peaceful and enjoyable morning.

2. Set your alarm

Setting your alarm to a mood bosting song will make for a happier wake up call. Make sure you stick to the same wake up time throughout the week. Consistency will make it easier to form a routine.

3. Pack your bag the night before

Whether you need to bring your laptop, books for school or a lunch make sure you pack it in your bag the night before. This way you’ll have extra time in the morning to relax.

4. Get into the order of things

When designing your perfect morning routine know that it will take work to make it consistent. Plan on keeping the order of events in your routine so it becomes easier to maintain over time.

5. Multitask by making a to-do list

If you enjoy a leisurely breakfast or a lengthy commute take that time for yourself. Writing out a to-do list while you have idle time is a great way to prepare for what you need to complete in that day.

6. Make your bed

Taking two minutes to make your bed will boost your mood later when you come home to a tidy bedroom.

7. Take up a morning ritual

Morning rituals can be anything from a writing journal page, exercise or reading the paper. Try building in extra moments to settle into the day ahead. A small task in self-care can prepare us to face any later challenges.

8. Pick out Your Outfit the night before

Picking out an outfit should be fun! Why waste the opportunity to carefully choose an outfit the night before? It allows your creativity to flourish and your routine to be simplified.
I hope this list demonstrated the ways we can control a busy work week. Building in small moments for ourselves will make us better people to those around us. Intentional actions and organizational steps can help us craft a happy life.
