Even if you aren't in the mood to exercise, go out and do 15-20 minutes of work in the yard.  It really helps change the mindset if something is bothering you. 

Being under the influence puts your co-workers at risk for injury too--not just you.  

If you feel like something is off or not quite right, trust your gut.  

If you have to work outside, start early and get done before the hottest part of the day.  Hydrate at least twice an hour if not more.    

I LOVE setting my phone down on the weekends and forgetting about it for a little.  It makes you more productive for sure. My daughter and I call it “protecting your peace” 

It's ok not to answer a text or call right that minute. It can wait til you pull over. Just train yourself to put your phone away while driving.  

Everyone makes mistakes but a quick proof read on an email before sending or a double check on a customer's order can make a big difference and eliminate a lot of confusion. 

Stay in the shade and hydrate.  Also please be careful with those fireworks! 

Stay focused and be patient with other drivers/bikers/pedestrians etc.--even if they are not doing the same!  

Housekeeping also includes keeping food and food trash in the kitchen and break areas. Rodents will find the smallest crumbs and set up shop.
