START YOUR DAY RIGHT When you wake up, don’t roll over and start checking email on your phone. Try a simple mindfulness practice: Take a few deep breaths, make a mental list of the things you’re grateful for. Meditate for 20–30 minutes.

Organize your day. Take advantage of your body’s natural rhythms. Focus on complex, creative tasks in the morning. Push meetings to the afternoon.

Tidy up A clean work environment leads to a less cluttered mind. Put everything in a drawer. Create folders on your computer desktop to get rid of all the random files. On your phone, keep only the 8–12 most important apps on your home screen. Turn off all unnecessary notifications.
