Honestly think the water one alone will make a huge difference. I really notice when I don't drink enough. Good luck!

Hmmm... I probably just hit 1.5 today. Didn't start sipping water till 3pm, but it did wonders for my headache.
2. To exercise daily: bike-rides, stretching, core workouts ect.
Tried an arm workout but got about a minute through before I gave up. Decided on some stretches instead.
3. To spend a little more time outside, being creative and reading.
Outside: I spent about half-an-hour outside with some kids as part of our school's community service program.
Creativity: I went through this set of vocal warm-ups!
Reading: Read for ten minutes when I woke up and will read for another ten before bed.
4. To stop snacking after dinner.
Tick.
5. To cut out all lollies. (My go-to comfort food.)
Tick.
6. To wear my retainer every night.
Tick.
7. To take off my makeup more and take better care of my skin.
Took of my makeup. Used my face scrub this morning and a moisturiser in the evening.
8. To read a bible passage each day.
Read Psalm 1 and took notes with my new calligraphy pens and fine liners! ;D
9. To stop going on my phone or any other technology in my bed.
Didn't even think about this. Sat on my laptop in bed today for about an hour or two. But, not while I was meant to be sleeping so that's something!
10. To keep my room clean (and tidy it every Sunday).
Did a bit of work on this as well. Definitely cleaner than when I woke up this morning!
11. To create and maintain positive study habits.
I worked really hard when I woke up to get some Edrolo done and worked hard in class so I didn't get much homework. But I came home and procrastinated all evening. I also missed two classes for community service and have not bothered to find out what I missed.
12. To feel more positive and energetic.
Was feeling fairly positive today, but definitely struggled energy-wise. I snoozed my alarm three times. I also felt quite lethargic all day. (probably just the effect of a full day of school)

Fairly tidy at the minute, but could use a bit of work. Didn't feel like I really had time or energy for it today.
11. To create and maintain positive study habits.
Studied in the library before school, worked hard during class and did a tiny bit this evening. Overall, would have liked to get a lot more done.
12. To feel more positive and energetic.
Felt fairly good today, albeit very stressed. Was volunteering with some real cuties and they certainly lifted my spirits.
