Key points discussed:

- Build healthy habits consistently: Incorporating healthy habits like diet, exercise, and self-care into your daily routine is more effective than sporadic efforts.

- Begin with small, sustainable changes: By making small changes at the start like 10-15 minutes of exercise or a 3-minute gratitude practice, you’re more likely to build a sustainable habit.

- Plan ahead: Meal planning and scheduling movement breaks can help you stay focused and productive throughout the day.

- Hydration is important: Drinking water regularly can improve mental focus and energy levels.

- Limit alcohol: Alcohol can negatively impact sleep quality and next-day productivity.

- Experiment with different self-care practices: Find what works best for you, whether it's meditation, journaling, or talking to a friend. Remember self-care is investing in your well-being.

- Prioritize sleep: Establishing a consistent sleep schedule and nighttime routine can boost energy and focus.

- Movement breaks boost productivity: Short bursts of physical activity can re-energize the mind and body.

- Certain foods can enhance focus: Blueberries, broccoli, fatty fish, and nuts are examples of brain-boosting foods.
