Learn to say NO.
Say no to commitments that zap you of your time, energy, and attention. The best way to get more time is to not introduce unproductive activities into your life in the first place. Run more interference against taking on low-return things on daily basis.
Saying ‘NO’ to someone it’s not rude and being assertive has many benefits. Say no to the friend who wants to meet over coffee to gossip. Say no to the co-worker who wants to spread his negativity and cynicism. Say no to the relative who laughs at your dreams and makes you doubt yourself. Say no the social obligations that drain time from your life’s work.
Interestingly, the ability to say no is closely linked to self-confidence. People with low self-confidence and self-esteem often feel nervous about antagonizing others and tend to rate others’ needs more highly than their own.

Start each morning with exercise.
One of the most important things that you can do for your brain and your overall well-being is to start every morning with exercise. You don’t have to go to the gym and spend 3 hours pumping iron like Arnold in his prime either. Simply getting the blood flowing for 20 minutes will sufficiently spark your mind and help you develop stronger focus throughout the day. Some great activities to try are: swimming, yoga or cycling. These exercises are relatively low impact on your body and are a lot more fun than mindlessly running on the “dreadmill” each morning.

Stop procrastinating.
Stop putting off that task you’ve been dreading and do it now!
When we procrastinate, we squander away our free time and put off important tasks we should be doing them till it’s too late. And when it is indeed too late, we panic and wish we got started earlier. Delaying, putting off things, slacking, hiding from work, facing work only when it’s unavoidable, then repeating this loop all over again – it’s a bad habit that eats us away and prevents us from achieving greater results in life. One of the best strategy is to start working on your despised task first to keep momentum going for the rest of the day.

Smile.
Smiling and laughing is one of the best ways to instantly lighten your mood. Smiling activates the release of neuropeptides that work toward fighting off stress. Neuropeptides are tiny molecules that allow neurons to communicate to the whole body when we are happy, sad, angry, depressed, excited. The “feel good” neurotransmitters dopamine, endorphins and serotonin are all released when we smile which helps relieve stress and control heart rate. This not only relaxes your body, but it can lower your heart rate and blood pressure.
A good joke with a friend, a good movie with your partner or just smiling at the sun shine should put you on positive mood.

Explode.
I don’t mean lose your temper or find a way to self-combust. What I do mean is to perform explosive exercises like jumping in place as high as possible or burpees. These exercises help ‘wake up’ your nervous and cardiovascular system and will have you feeling more alert and energized. The key is to not wear yourself out. This is done by doing several sets (3-6) of low reps (1-3) of 1-2 exercises. Rest about 30 seconds between each set.
Perform this type of exercise when you are feeling tired for a quick pick me up at work or before your workout to boost your energy all workout long.

Eat slowly and chew your food properly.
Forget about counting calories and weighing food – pointless tactics which steal our time and drain our energy. The easiest way to naturally eat less is eating slowly and chewing food properly. That helps us with digestion and we need less of food to feel satisfied. Digestion is one of the most energy-consuming processes of the body, so it’s essential that we help our body along by doing our part. It’s good to think about the taste and smell of the food we eat. The slower we eat, the more of an experience we have.

Practice gratitude.
Gratitude is the act of being thankful for simple things in our life. Practicing gratitude has been proven to increase happiness. There’s a study from Journal of Personality and Social Psychology that suggests that a conscious focus on blessings (in other words: practicing gratitude) have emotional and interpersonal benefits. So, be grateful of every little thing in your life, because there are a lot more people that are not as fortunate as you.
