Spend half an hour in the nearest public park, if you have one. If you don't, then just spend half an hour walking around your neighborhood.
Most importantly- TURN OFF YOUR PHONE while you do this.

Yoga. Even five minutes of yoga has an impact. Now in my sixth year of daily practice I can confidently say it's improved my life physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally.

While exercise is a great way to start the day, sometimes you just don't feel like it but the time still needs to be spent productively.
I installed a randomizer app on my phone that has (so far) 8 activities to spend the 30 minutes each day I'm getting up earlier to be more productive and healthy: run, read (print, not computer), clean, home improvement, learn, yoga, write (journal or work on an article), rest.
Unless I strongly feel like doing one of the activities, I randomly select an activity each morning.

Try to get rejected once a day.
Not for anything in particular or even particularly important. You'll succeed less than you think.
Advice from an old professor. He was a photographer and would 'try to get rejected' getting into all kinds of cool places.
...he got into a lot of cool places.

Feeling grateful for even the slightest things will bring huge positive impact on life.
Decluttering and tidying up then and there brings a feel of peace to the mind.
Speaking kind words will make people feel this world is a better place.

If you are trying to form new habits, writing down your progress helps immensely. It helped me form a routine of reading, I just noted down the number of pages I read daily.
It is a whole other thing that I 'dropped off that wagon'. Looking for a restart in the new year. Cheers!

I've been bodybuilding for 10+ years. It only takes 30 minutes to 1 hour 4 days a week. Get in a routine and an average of 10-20 minutes a day and you can be top 10% of the population in physique.

Breathing.
If you don't breath then you won't have much quality of life.
Or, any life.
