1 Minute Habit for March 6

During a hectic work-from-home week, a software engineer began stepping onto her balcony each morning. She would spend just one minute observing the trees and sky while sipping her coffee. The leaves shimmered in the breeze, and birds sang in the distance—it became her tiny retreat before emails and meetings took over. Over time, this habit became non-negotiable. Even on cold or rainy days, she found beauty in the clouds or the quietness of fog. It helped her feel grounded and present before jumping into her screen-heavy routine. She shared the practice with her team, and some coworkers even started sending morning nature photos. That small pause sparked joy, gratitude, and connection—even from different cities. All it took was one minute and a view.
