A few things for me of late:

Go to bed on time.
Make time during the week to hang out with friends.
Eat well.
Take a walk every day.
Live moment-by-moment versus grieving about the past or worrying about the future.

Great thread and great words of wisdom! An idea I would add:

Set a small goal for yourself every day then follow through.  It will give you a sense of accomplishment.
Once you've done that for a while, build on it from there and set a few small goals. Baby steps.

One of my own examples:
(I have a desk that's been overtaken with papers and mail.)
Goal:  When I go home at night after work, get rid of 5 pieces of mail. Envelopes count!
