10 Things you should stop doing

During the course of the day, you have many things to do and accomplish. You have your habits and routines, as well as other tasks and responsibilities. These are the things that you normally see on your to-do lists. However, there are things that you do on a daily basis that you actually need to stop doing. These things make use of your time and energy with no positive results in the end.


1. Wasting your time online

If you want to get anything done in real life, then you need to stop wasting your time online. You only need so much time to check, answer, and send emails. You need to watch the amount of time you spend on facebook because you can waste a whole day on it. You have to limit the time you spend surfing websites, blogs, and forums.


2. Not setting priorities

Priorities are important because they help separate the things that matter and the things that are insignificant. Setting priorities help declutter your mind, your day, and your life. If you are still not setting priorities, then you need to start doing it now. Stop doing things that don’t matter to you and your overall life plan.

3. Always saying “Yes”

If you are one of those people who say “yes” to everything and everyone, then you need to stop doing it right now! You are in danger of over committing yourself. You need to identify who and what activities are important to you. Let go of relationships and activities that do not really matter to you. Make your commitments accordingly.

4. Trying to do everything

Remember that there is only one of you. You cannot do everything even if you wanted to. You need to let go of unnecessary activities or you need to learn how to delegate. If you continue trying to do everything, then you may end up feeling stressed and fatigued. This applies to both work and home life.

5. Always multi-tasking

multi-tasking is a great way to get a lot of things done in a small amount of time. However, there are downsides to this modern day practice. When you multi-task, you work less efficiently than when you focus on one task. It can also get pretty complicated and crazy. You don’t need additional chaos in your life so when you can, choose to single task.

6. Being a people pleaser

Even if you want everyone around you to be happy, it is a fact that you simply cannot please everyone. Something you say or do will make someone unhappy. If you insist on being a people pleaser, you might find yourself unable to make decisions. You may also feel generally displeased with yourself. You have to do things because you believe in them and they make you happy. Don’t base your decisions on a fickle world.


7. Always being available

It doesn’t matter what you do or who you work for; you deserve some time to unwind. If you give the impression that you are always available, then people will keep contacting you. You need to learn to disconnect sometimes. Turn off your phone, go offline, or even put up a sign asking not to be disturbed. It is easy to lose yourself if you don’t take the time to relax and just be quiet.

8. Being obsessed about details

There is nothing wrong with being a perfectionist and being detail-oriented. However, if your need for perfection gets in the way of progress and results, then you need to rethink your approach. The same goes for being a detail-oriented person. It is good to have this quality, but if it stops you from getting things done, then you should find a way to work around it.

9. Needing to control everything

You have to realize that there are things in this world that you simply cannot control. You do not have power over most of the events in this world. You cannot tell people what to say or do. You need to find a way to come to terms with this. I guarantee that you will feel more at peace with your life.

10. Not taking time to relax

This is a big mistake that people make all the time: not taking breaks. You can only work for so long before you feel stressed, tired, and all knotted up. No task is too important that you cannot stop for a bit to relax. Breaks helps you regain focus, as well as give you a fresh outlook on the task at hand.


These are probably the most common things that people do on a daily basis that can cause unnecessary anxiety and stress. You don’t need to subject yourself to these detrimental habits and thought processes. Do yourself a favor and slowly try to eliminate these things from your life. Try to do a life inventory and see what else you could be doing that doesn’t bring anything positive to your existence.
