Michael Cazayoux continues his Q&A Monday takeover this week with an inside look at the daily routine and habits he has formed to stay grounded and mindful.

Ahhhhh, working from home. It comes with so many benefits, like creating your own schedule, ability to travel, and even flexibility when it comes to meal choices and timing.

With full schedules and tight deadlines, we quite often find ourselves wishing we had more time in our day to do things we love and enjoy.

When you’re trying to do it all — get to the gym, work a full time job, keep your nutrition on track and feel good about yourself every day — having a set of rules and boundaries to abide by helps.

Each day we have the chance to take advantage of so many opportunities to bring joy into our lives. This doesn’t necessarily mean grand gestures, but rather recognizing that slowing down just a touch can allow you to increase your happiness ten fold.

How often do you look at the BIG picture of your life, and really spell out what you want out of it? How often do you create a clear vision, and how often do you check-in with yourself to see if your actions are in line with that vision?

It requires dedication, will power and action and is the key to building long-lasting, sustainable habits. It is a recommitment to our goals each and every day.

Having the freedom to work from home can be both a blessing and curse when it comes our nutrition.

With back to school around the corner, it means it’s back to routine for many of us. With larger work loads come long days, and a greater need for fuel.

I’ve always said morning people are the best kinds of people! Winning our day starts by winning our morning.
