GWD = Getting Water Drunk.
It’s old wisdom that water is a good thing. The major chunk of our body mass is comprised of water, it is the basis for all life, and it’s a no-calorie refreshment that’s freely available to people like you and me.
Look around yoruself. If you ahd to drink water right now, would there be a bottle within reach?
I’m not referring to the climax scene in Signs, where glasses of water should be distributed around the house in order to defeat the aliens, but I am referring to your water habit. Keeping a bottle handy at all times is a hard habit to build, but all the more an important one.
Make it serious fun by choosing a nice bottle, keeping chilled water ready in the fridge and load up on the resources below for reasons to drink more water and how to do it.

My personal system for drinking water is fairly simple: Keep at least a litre of water around you at all times, and drink at every transition in our work day (when changing the subject you’re studying, when moving from one class to the next, when going from computer to writing on paper, when coming from the bathroom, etc.).
It’s that easy. And the benefits are enormous. I think of it as a flush for the system, increasing the turnover of nutrients in the body and thus keeping yourself clean and healthy.
I notice I use the bathroom more, obviously, but I also feel calmer, my skin has begun to glow and I’ve ditched coke and co.
Happy drinking!
