1. Sync your calendars.
Add your personal commitments to the same calendar as your work responsibilities. �This way you won�t forget and I find it makes me work more efficiently during the work day,� says Ravich. Treat all those calendar events equally and force yourself to step away from the desk when it�s fun time.
2. Work out in the morning.
OK, so you�re on board with exercise, but a.m. exercise�not so much. Getting active earlier provides energy and endorphins before heading into the 9-to-5, plus it ensures that you won�t have that extra jolt of energy right before bedtime.
3. Prepare for the day ahead.
Before nodding off, pack up anything you need for tomorrow � a healthy lunch, a gym bag, etc. Being prepared will help you get out the door quickly. All that order and organization might even help you relax before falling asleep.
4. Be bed-ready.
�I set an alarm for seven to eight hours before I know I need to wake up,� says Ravich. That alarm serves as a reminder to hit the hay in time to get enough zzz�s. She also recommends winding down with quiet reading or yoga to relax before bed, though many types of routines can clue your body in on the fact it�s bedtime.
