How to Make the Most of Your Last Summer Weekend

Split the days between "doing stuff" and "doing nothing."

Fall starts next week, so this is the last official weekend of summer. Here are four tips to get the most out of it.

Spend some time outside. Go for a hike, visit a park, or take a walk to break up all the time you spend indoors.

Also, try to wake up at the same time every day. You’ll get more out of your weekend, and you won’t mess up your sleep schedule for the work week.

Split the days between “doing stuff” and “doing nothing.” So, for instance, you could spend today and tomorrow doing things like seeing a friend, running errands, and finishing chores. Then on Sunday, do nothing as a way to “reset.”

Finally, try to get one thing done tonight. It could be something fun, like catching a movie…or not fun, like chores. but crossing at least one thing off your to-do list on Friday night will free up more time on Saturday and Sunday.
