There has to be room for the unexpected. If you’ve become a servant of your routine, rather than it helping you to be more effective in managing your schedule, it’s time to change things up. Attempt to break out of your routine periodically and go with the flow. Try to get comfortable with the unpredictable. Depending on how much of a control freak you are, you may need to start small. A massive overhaul will be more detrimental than helpful.
