No matter if you’re a morning or night person, when you wake up, your brain is ready to learn. Scientists have found that in the morning, the part of our brain that helps us make decisions and stay focused works better.
Starting your day can be hard, especially when your mind is still waking up. Personally, I’m always unable to think clearly after waking up, and the last thing I can think of doing is packing my bag or choosing what to wear for the day.
To set the scene for your morning, place things in your bedroom that encourage you to start. For example, if you plan to read in the morning, keep a book near your bed. Similarly, if you want to limit your time on social media, make it harder to get to your phone by changing your phone settings.
Dividing the taskBesides focusing on the first step of a given task, dividing the task into smaller stops will not only increase the chances of it getting done, but also have a positive mental effect.
In short, making a morning plan that helps you succeed means planning carefully and staying organized.

【推荐2】A lot of phones are lost every day. Losing a phone makes people upset, because they usually keep all their friends’ numbers, and perhaps their photos or favorite songs on it.
One day, Jack Gallagher was reading on a chair in a London park. All of a sudden, a phone under the chair started to ring. He picked it up and answered it. The speaker, Louise, explained that this was her phone. She asked worriedly, “Where are you? I wonder if you could give back my phone.” Jack said, “No problem. I’ll meet you at Euston Station.”
When Jack met Louise, she told him that it was part of an experiment. She explained that a group of scientists wanted to test people’s honesty (诚实). They left phones in parks and then rang them.
The result showed that 20% of the people who answered the phones refused to return them. However, 80% of people agreed to give them back. Why? The scientists found that two key factors made a difference. Firstly, people were more likely to return the phone if a woman made the phone call. Secondly, people were more likely to return the phone with a photo of a baby on the screen.
So now you know: keep a photo of a baby on your screen and ask your mom to call your number if you lose your phone!
