If you find yourself doing the same routine day after day, never remembering what you did the day before, having nothing to look forward to, living your life – but never enjoying it or anything in it… you are probably living your life and the relationships in it on autopilot.
The really devastating part about living life on autopilot, especially when it comes to your relationships, is that you don’t even know that you’re doing it half the time. You’re just living your life, wishing for more, but not really sure if there is more or how to get it. While many people live out their entire lives on autopilot (which is truly sad), the way to have truly rewarding and successful lives and relationships is to be totally aware and adaptable when it comes to life.
So, how do you do that?
1. Stop and smell the roses (literally).
Take time to notice all the little things around you that you always use to look at when you were 6!
Or better, try aromatherapy! At home or in the office, there’s a scent for every mood and emotion.
Scents for productivity
When life gets busy, chances are you may be overlooking one of the easiest ways to set a productive mood: with scent. If you need more focus, or simply want to stimulate your mind, eucalyptus is the one to go for.

2. Think about your short and long-term goals.
Do you still have those? And if so – have you forgotten them? Re-write that list and start working on accomplishing your next short-term goal.
3. Remember your relationship?
When was the last time you did something new with him/her? When was the last time you even wanted to? Start thinking about your relationship and stop just “being in it”.
