I love the fact that I have a routine, and I would recommend everyone to have one as well.
Because it ensures you attend to yourself, before you attend to the world.
Here is my weekend routine:
Friday nights are exceptions to my “sleep by 9.30pm” rule because I conduct a live session at 10pm on Instagram, every Friday.
It is one thing that I really look forward to because this is how I connect with my audience in the most up close manner.
Hence, Saturday mornings I do not get up around 5am.
Instead, I get up around 6.30am.
6.30-6.45am: Sip a glass of water.
6.45-7.15am: Meditate
7.15-7.45am: Reading
7.45-8am: Do epic shit :))
8am-8.45am: Gym
8.45-9am: Newspaper
9-9.30am: Get ready
9.30-10am: Breakfast
10am-12.30pm: Work day
This usually comprises checking emails, prepping for my Monday shoot (I shoot all my videos on Monday), thinking time etc.
12.30-1.30pm: Time waste schedule :)
1.30-2.30pm: Lunch
2.30-5.30pm: This is when we either watch a movie (happens maybe once/twice a month) or we go out for some errands (my wife and I LOVE shopping haha!)
5.30-6.30pm: Check emails
6.30-7pm: Dinner
7-8pm: Park with family
8pm: Get ready for bed
8.30pm: Put kids to bed
9pm: Read
9.30pm: Sleep
So basically, a LOT of chilling and unwinding with only half a day of work.
On Sunday, the same routine follows, except in the morning Ruchi and I usually go for a heritage or nature walk.
Delhi has a LOT of places to visit and has a rich history and we both love walk tours with experts.
These walks usually start at 7am (so we have to leave home by 6am) and end by 9.30/10am, so we are back home by 11am.
So – getting ready, breakfast, newspaper etc. are all pushed to the first half of the day (by 12.30pm), after which the day looks very close to how a Saturday looks like.
Happy weekend, lovelies :)
