1. Sing on your way to work

Sing on your way to work. Yes, car karaoke may get you some strange looks, but it really improves your mood!

2. Take a break and check your personal messages

Check your personal messages on the loo at work – what else were iPhones invented for?

4. Wear clothes that make you feel good

Make every work outfit make a statement. If you look good, you feel good. Then you work better.

5. Change out of work mode when you get home

Get changed as soon as you get home.

6. Make time for things you love

Do something every day you really enjoy – read, eat chocolate, talk to friends, dance… Make every day count!

7. Relive positive moments before sleep

…and then relive it before you go to sleep – get it lodged in your memory bank.

8. Run for your physical and mental well-being

Run. It’s free and it makes you feel fantastic.

9. Let go of perfection sometimes

Don’t wash up tonight. Draw the blinds and leave it sitting there. Who cares? Watch telly instead.

10. Smile and enjoy life

Smile. Spring’s in the air, the nights are getting lighter and life’s too short to waste.
