Drink water. Cold water. It can increase your calorie burning capabilities by 25% – 30% for around 30 minutes after. Especially when your metabolism is at it’s lowest. More often than not, this is around mid – morning, and mid – afternoon. Avoid the slump.
Take public transport. Get off a stop or two earlier and get a metabolic kick start before you begin your day. Not to mention getting some of that crisp, morning air.
Listen to music. Uplifting and inspiring music can lead to improvements in productivity of up to 15%. Perfect, if you have a spare 5 to 10 minutes, to get you revved up for the day ahead. Just don’t treat everyone around you to a sing song, if you use public transport!
