Some of the practices I learned in the Military, somehow carried over to civilian life. The most prominent is planning my days and weeks ahead.
The military always posted a P.O.D. - Plan of the Day, for the next day. It told our unit what we’d be doing, and we’d prepare accordingly.
The evening before, we’d consider the tools we’d need, laid out our clothes or uniforms for the next day and planned our sleeping schedule to be at our best for the assignments.
