Becoming a Productive Muslimah.
Lately, I'm having insomnia and I tried to get enough sleep. Been awake till 6:30 in the morning. But once I got into the habit of it, I realized I wasn't productive than before. I try to early to bed but it so damn hard.-_-" So I have tried some productive routine from ProductiveMuslim and it is the best advice ever! I go in and out of this exact routine. When I’m in it, I am as productive as ever. When I’m not, the day is a drag and I never catch up. Sadly, today is one of those late start days. They key really is going to bed early… Something I’m not very good at doing.
I hate routine. Except when it comes to morning routines. That’s something I try and stick to! There’s something about starting your day on a number of pre-planned actions that really set your day straight.
When you wake up, WAKE UP. It’s healthy.
Because I so hate getting up in the morning, I have to trick myself into doing it. My alarm clock blurts to life with some really beautiful jazz music. Perhaps the first and most important step to having a great morning routine is waking up early! And it is in that moment of indecisiveness. Whether I should wake up immediately or enjoy my nice comfy bed for 5 more minutes wherein lies the secret to either a great day or a crazy one.
Make the Doa for waking up and Alhamdulillah, I have a beautiful set of waking up. I can almost feel my heart coming to life and being juiced when the first thing you do as soon as you wake up is remember Allah & recite His Glorious Words from the Quran. After Solat Subuh, I do some quick 30 minute exercise. This could be jogging around the block, some aerobics or cardiovascular exercises and anything that builds my stamina but sometime I'm just doing sit up and dance movement for 10 minutes.
Since I'm jobless, I just stay at home and doing household chores and prepare meals for my family. Sometime I feel bored and lonely. But to think about it I want to cherish the moment with my family because appreciate someone when it exists. When his/her absence, our appreciation is in vain. I really love my family so much.
P.s : Better go to bed now. It's already late. I'm trying my best to sleep early this few days. Hope it works if I follow this routine continuously. Niteynight earthlings. Jazakallah..
