Routines save time and energy because you do them without thinking. That’s why they are so important in the
morning when your brain isn’t active. Here is Ann’s talking about her morning routine.
“I always do exactly the same things. I wake up at seven o’clock every morning but I don’t get up till quarter past
seven. I switch on the radio and listen to the news. Then I go to the loo and I brush my teeth. I have a shower and
dry my hair. I just have a cup of coffee. Then I go to work. It’s always the same.”
Routines are very useful, but they also make you uncreative. So sometimes it is a good idea to break your routines.
