ROUTINES

Think about your daily life. Do you follow the same routine work every day? Do you sit in the same place in class? When you get dressed, do you always put the same leg or arm in first? You probably do, because we all have routines in our lives.

Routines save time and energy because you do them without thinking, thats why they are so important in the morning when your brain isnt active. Heres Jo talking about her morning routine.

Oh yes. I always do exactly the same things. I wake up at seven oclock every morning, but I dont get quarter past seven. I switch on the radio and listen to the news.

Then I go to work. Yes, its always the same.

Routines are very useful but they also make you uncreative. So some­times its a good idea to break your routines. Get out of bed on the opposite side. Listen to a different radio station. Take a different route to work. Eat something different for breakfast. Change your routine. You never know, it could change your life.
