About This Quiz

Did you know that it takes 21 days to form a habit? When you think about it, habits and routine are the same thing. It's the habits you have done at the same time every day that make them a routine. Usually, a person will have a morning and a nighttime routine at home, and then they have a separate routine when they get into work. It's fun to get to work, plop your stuff on your desk, get a cup of coffee, catch up with coworkers, do a lap around the office and then finally sit down to do some work. 

But what if you don't have a job where you go to an office every day? There are so many different types of jobs out there these days that a one size routine doesn't fit all. If you work in the restaurant industry, your routine is going to be way different than that of a lawyer. There's no right or wrong routine; it's really just about finding what works for you. Maybe you have a different routine on the days that you work versus the days you have off! The bottom line about routines is just to do you, and we want to know all about it. Tell us about your daily routine, and we'll guess what job you have!
