Evening Rituals: Finish Every Day
“Finish every day and be done with it… You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. To-morrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely, and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson In this episode, the host, Ana Melikian, delves into a practical evening ritual aimed at helping you restart your days with renewed energy and focus. Ana introduces listeners to the concept that a successful day actually begins the night before. Drawing from her own experiences, Ana shares a simple yet effective bedtime practice. She explains how incorporating a consistent, short ritual before going to bed can significantly improve the quality of your sleep and overall morning mindset.
