1. Increase your sleep – Get 7-8 hours of quality sleep. If you are not getting enough sleep at night, you are not going to be able to be patient and stress-free throughout the day. If you are not waking up feeling refreshed you are not going to have a lot of patience you are going to have a short fuse and you are going to be highly irritable.
To wake up refreshed, avoid blue light or led light from electronic devices before bed. The blue light suppresses melatonin between one and three hours.
