What’s your best time-saving shortcut/life hack?

Waking up early and going for a run. I find that if I can accomplish one thing like, a workout in the morning, I will be far more productive during the day. I can get work done quicker because I have more energy and motivation.

What everyday thing are you better at than everyone else? What’s your secret?

I keep things in my day organized. I thrive when I have a routine and my schedule is full for the day. I enjoy planning out my day and making sure I get everything done that I wanted to for the day. My secret is using a calendar or check list to give you a visual of what your day will look like.

What do you listen to while you work?

It depends on my mood. If I am feeling sluggish, I like listening to hype rap or other pump up music. If I need something to calm me down, I will flip on some piano music.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

“If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything”. I think it is important to stand true to what you believe and don’t let anything negative influence you. Being a strong, independent person has also been very important to me so that may be why I chose this as the best advice.

Where do you find inspiration and new ideas?

I watched a TED talk a while back that was about how going on a walk can boost creativity. I have been doing this lately and have found that getting lost in my own thoughts while walking has led to new ideas. Walking on trails at the local state parks is where I can focus the most. I also feel like I become more creative when I am alone in my element.
