Building a routine during quarantine Like everybody in quarantine, I'm wasting my time. I wake up late, I go to sleep late, binge-watching. I have a weekly plan, and I fail every day. I've tried to follow all the good bits of advice you can find on twitter from a wise person, and I failed. Now I need a better plan, starting from a scratch. As well known building good routines is tricky. Firstly, a good strategy start with the small things, wake up at the right time, we can agree a not early time but a reasonable 7:30 am. Secondly, I need to go to sleep at 22:30 to keep some time to read and finish my readings, the bedside table is still full of books and the ebook reader is receiving books every week, I need to increase my reading pace. Ok, we fixed the initial and finish milestone, the I need to fill the time between, I have 17 hours. To cook, eat and clean I need 4 hours. I need to keep my body in shape, keep is a strong word, maybe is more honest to say to start to move and do something. I have got an elliptical exercise bike, I can start to walk at least 30 minutes, then after a week maybe I can add some bedroom workout, I remember 7 minutes workout done by some journalist on the NY Times, I need t recover that article and video. To make it very clear I'm a very lazy guy, I didn't mention that I over-weight and very close to the limit of light obesity. It never happens, but I need to lose at least 12/15 kilograms. Now I've written 280 words, it near my limit, this exercise will continue and it will be part of my daily routines. Finally, I would like to thanks all people that corrected and will correct my notebook.

Now I need a better plan, starting from a scratch. As is well known, building good routines is tricky. Firstly, a good strategy is to start with the small things, wake up at the right time, and we can agree on a not too early time but a reasonable 7:30 am.
Secondly, I need to go to sleep at 22:30 to keep some time to read and finish my readings. The bedside table is still full of books and the ebook reader is receiving books every week. I need to increase my reading pace.
