13 Tips to Make the Most of Your Commute

Stop Thinking of Your Commute as a Gridlocked Prison & Make It Work for You

4. Fly Solo

If you choose the solo route, lessen stress and promote your mental health with a few key preparations.

Keep up on vehicle maintenance including oil changes, tire rotations and fluid refills. Don’t pull into the garage promising yourself to refill the gas tank before the morning commute unless you’re certain that: you won’t forget; you won’t get stuck waiting at the pump; or you have a tanker toting genie who will do the refuel for you overnight.

As bad as it is to be among the hordes on the highway inching their way to work every day, it beats being stuck on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck.
