Dealing with routine disruptions

Routines are kinda like GPS on this journey—they can help you navigate what to do or eat next so you don’t have to put in a lot of extra effort. But glitches happen all the time. Here’s how not to get lost.

You’ve likely worked hard building routines that make it easier to stay in your Points® Budget, be active, or get enough sleep. (Kudos, btw.) It’s worth it too, because when you’re in your groove, the results are gold. But then you go on vacation or just out to eat. Or your kids are off school, or it’s a busy time at work, or your social life picks up. Your usual way of doing things turns into Ugh, what now!?

This month, we’re helping you answer that question. Planning ahead for changes or disruptions to your schedule, environment, and any other stay-on-track tools can help you pivot. So then, instead of getting frustrated and taking a hard left toward giving up, you’re ready with a new way to keep moving forward.

Check back over the next four weeks for this month’s weekly techniques.
