I found something on hn a few days back and i am trying to carry it around and make it a part of me.

"""For someone who hated routines and felt trapped. The simple advice that schedules are my friend and I should schedule my day in a way that would make me happy when I go to bed. Been doing this for 2 months now. Never been more productive or happier. """ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17159515

The thought that the schedule should be one you are happy about is very powerful. I am trying to incorporate that into my daily routine.

Hey there that was a comment that I made. I am glad that it helped you.

I learnt it from Jordan B. Peterson. I highly recommend his book "12 rules for life" which has improved the overall quality of my life by a substantial magnitude in the last two months. This book led me to read some of the writings of Carl Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz which were further eye openers.

A warning though that he has a polarising effect on people. They either hate him or worship him. I would suggest reading the book with a beginners mind and applying in your life what seems apt to you :)

Would you mind posting an example schedule of your day? One that makes you "happy" as you say...
