9 Morning Habits That Can Help You Stay Organized

Plan (and cook) your meals beforehand

Planning your meals in advance can make you more organized and productive throughout the day, and that’s perfect because you don’t have to waste your time thinking about what you’d like to eat when you arrive home after a hard day. Additionally, cooking your food the night before can help you save a lot of money and improve your health as well. When you cook something at home you know exactly what ingredients you have used, and if you use healthy foods, you can improve your overall health. 

“I personally am now in the process of starting food prep… and it’s revolutionary and helpful to know what you’re going to eat each day,” says Wolf.

In addition, when you cook your favorite recipes at home you should “use fresh herbs whenever possible. Nothing brings flavor and sense of place to a dish like fresh herbs. A handful of basil or cilantro can transform a dish completely,” recommends Chef Karen Akunowicz, Owner and Executive Chef of Fox & the Knife, Boston, MA.
