Appreciate your environment, learn to love the Natural World
Stop whatever you are doing and look around you. SEE your natural world. Better still,feel it.
Believe it or not, it's more exhausting to be glued to your desk all day or working on your laptop than taking a walk outdoors in a park that has trees and flowers. Being outdoors, spending some time in your natural environment can bring amazing positive energy. Try it.
Better still, educate children to appreciate Nature. Aeon Magazine has a fantastic write-up on how parents are squandering one of the greatest opportunities we have to cultivate in kids a love for the natural world.

Break the rules, Defy the age myth
Now I have to confess, I get sucked in my the age myth...nearly all the time. If there's a dance, I think to myself, "It's fun but at my age, I better stick to checking out the dishes on the buffet table." When I think of completing my manuscript, the same thoughts occur, "I should just read all those fantastic writers out there. They are so young and I am getting sooo old to start writing.." That goes for salsa dancing too...when friends say they are taking salsa dancing lessons, I cringe and think, "Imagine doing something like that at my age..."
Chuck those thoughts, good writing has no age limit, says Sunie Levie. The best part is where she cites examples of writers who have been writing past the age of eighty and ninety. I could just hug her for the awesome examples she has cited.
