Link of the day: Upgrade an unproductive day

Via Lifehacker, I read an interesting post called "Upgrade an Unproductive Day by Mentally Rehearsing a Better One." I agree; there is considerable value in replaying the "tape" of how your day went and figuring out why it went wrong. For instance, I found that it was hard to get up in the morning. I finally realized the reason was that after I turned off the alarm clock, I didn't know what my next step was. So I decided that my next step was to make coffee/tea and that has really helped.
