Manage Your Day-to-Day
Jocelyn K. Glei, 99U
The moment the alarm goes off is the first test; it sets the tone for the rest of the day. The test is not a complex one: when the alarm goes off, do you get up out of bed, or do you lie there in comfort and fall back to sleep? If you have the discipline to get out of bed, you win—you pass the test. If you are mentally weak for that moment and you let that weakness keep you in bed, you fail. Though it seems small, that weakness translates to more significant decisions. But if you exercise discipline, that too translates to more substantial elements of your life.

Take a moment and make your own list of things you can accomplish in ten minutes. Be sure to include chores, tasks that can move you forward creatively, and things that will make you feel good. Post that list in a few places around your house. Have it ready for the next time you find yourself with ten minutes to kill.
