10. Clean Your Room

It may sound simple, but cleaning your space can reduce stress and anxiety. Once you clean your room, you'll not only have done something nice for yourself, but you can start a routine of cleanliness that you can continue in the future. It can also help you feel more organized and help you be productive in other areas of your life, like schoolwork.

9. Read A Book

Sitting down a reading a book is extremely productive. It can be hard to sit at home and not watch TV and scroll through Instagram all day, but it can be good to unplug from all of your electronics for an hour at a time and unwind.

8. Do Some Yardwork

Pull some weeds that have been an eyesore, or mow your lawn. Cleaning your yard could make it more inviting and encourage you to spend more time outside.

7. Cook Something Healthy

You've got the ingredients, Google has the recipes, make something you haven't made before. Not only is it educational, but it can benefit other people as well as yourself.

6. Ask Your Family If They Need Help

Helping others can be the most productive thing you can do. It benefits yourself and others while also giving you something to do at home.

5. Take A Shower

Self-care is extremely important, and it can be hard to keep up when you're sitting at home all day. Taking a shower is the most simple step in self-care and being clean can be the easiest way to be productive for someone with very little energy.

4. Watch Something Educational

Learning something new is quick, easy, and can be done through Netflix. Watching a documentary about something you know very little about is another easy way to be productive without having to leave the house.

3. Make Something

Doing crafts is not only relaxing, but it can provide a physical outlet for relieving stress. There are DIY crafts all over the internet and many of the crafts can be very useful for later.

2. Spend Time With Your Pets

Animals are proven to reduce depression, stress, and anxiety. Not only is spending time with animals good for you, its good for the animals as well.

1. Download A Workout App

Apps like BetterMe, 7M Workout, and DailyYoga are all great options for at home workout apps. They require no weights or equipment, just five to twenty minutes and space for the workout. Exercise is one of the best ways to feel productive and exercising at home can be ideal for people who can't go to the gym for whatever reason.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
