Here's what Andrea Gaines, life and wellness coach offers:

Cultivate Enthusiasm--How do you start your day? Are you rushed and fly out of the door? Or dread getting out of bed? Try these mindset adjustments to change your mood.

  • Morning Ritual--While still in bed before you open your eyes, start thinking about what you are grateful for. You set yourself up to begin your day from a place of possibility and inspiration.
  • Night Ritual--Before your close your eyes and go to sleep, reflect on three things you are grateful for, that went well today. Over time, this practice makes for a more positive state of mind.
  • Imagination Activation--Imagine how it would feel if you received something you really want. Actually, picture this by closing your eyes and calling the image to mind. How do you feel? What are you enjoying about it? The key to realizing your goals is to imagine them already being accomplished.
