Exercise. A little every day will make a huge difference.
Absolutely! It doesn’t matter how small you start.
I work a desk job and told myself I needed to exercise otherwise I would continue having back/health problems. I started with a 1-2 minute workout every day just so I could get in the habit. And if I didn’t feel like doing even that, I would at least do a few push ups or squats. Once I got used to taking that time every day I saw myself taking 5 minutes. Then 10, 20, 30.. Now I commit to a 75-90 minute workout about 5 times a week. And I never thought it would get to that point but I started to enjoy it and look forward to that time every day!
Seconding exercise. Even if it's something small like taking stairs on your commute instead of the escalator. It ultimately adds up to so much over any period of time.
