Walking with a purpose
Humans were made for walking. With our strong leg muscles, our bodies were literally designed with walking in mind — which is what makes it such perfect exercise.
This month, why not focus on walking with a purpose? Wherever you are, in the city or at the campground, you’ll find plenty of walking going on. Maybe you already love to walk, but you’re getting tired of going your same old route day after day. Or maybe you’re new to walking and aren’t sure how to get started.
If making trends and socializing is your goal, call up your friends and schedule walks with them.

As more work can be done online, more and more people have chance to work at home. On the surface, working from home sounds like a dream come true.
Every job has a uniform. Uniforms serve two purposes: First, they communicate to the outside world a person’s position, stature and function. And second, they reinforce those same messages to the person wearing the uniform. When you work from home, dressing in your normal work uniform reinforces the idea that you are actually working.
Keep a Consistent Schedule
Many of us are more productive when we are working within a certain framework.
Be Flexible with Your Family Time
Have a Backup Plan
When you work from home, you need a plan B for the unavoidable interruptions to your well-planned workflow. There are any number of mini-crises that can erupt at home: loss of power or Internet service, unscheduled playdates or a neighbor cutting down a tree a few feet from your office window.
