#05 Routine: The place where you create habits

Much has been written about routine. No wonder, because routine - or the force of habit - helps us manage our daily duties. We invite you to dig through your habits with us and create a routine that will move you forward.

Why do we need a routine?

Routine is sometimes inflected as something bad or boring. We are very much looking forward to the fact that we can create our own routine in the Journal. Why?

Sometimes the mind is our worst enemy. We don't want to, we forget, sometimes our goals are accompanied by unpleasant tasks. But if we want to move closer to our ten-year vision, we have to work hard. One option is routine. It helps us regularly work on specific areas.

That's why in this exercise you will set a routine, i.e. repeated activities, thanks to which you will win the day. Or the whole year.
