Do you ever find yourself lying awake, thinking of all the things you need to do tomorrow? Elizabeth Louis, neuropsychology expert and mindset coach, has a solution. In this conversation she breaks down why planning your day the night before is a game-changer, especially for high achievers who can’t seem to switch off. Along the way she shares practical tools to stay focused, adapt to change, and, yes, finally get some good Sleep.
Here are a few of her best tips:
Plan Your Day Before Bed: Instead of running through tomorrow’s to-dos as your head hits the pillow, jot down three to five tasks before you leave work. Not only does this clear your mind, but it primes your brain for a more relaxed, productive morning.
Tap Into “Sensory-Based Thinking”: The brain’s quick, sensory-based thinking mode is four times faster than verbal reasoning. Planning ahead helps shift tasks into that mode, so your brain’s already working on solutions while you sleep.
Be Adaptable: When your day goes sideways (as it does!), don’t let it throw you. Be flexible, remember a rigid schedule can leave us spinning, while a looser grip lets us stay nimble and calm.
Celebrate Small Wins: Think of your goals like mile markers on a road trip. Instead of stressing over the full journey, celebrate hitting each marker, keeping up momentum and making the whole experience more enjoyable.
Catch Your “Thinking Traps”: Ever notice that you tend to expect the worst? Many of us have mental patterns that pull us down the same rabbit holes day after day. Elizabeth’s advice? Recognize them, greet them like familiar visitors, and then get on with the work that matters.
