183. Morning Routines : 6 Steps To Create Momentum For The Day Ahead

I love morning routines. It’s the time of the day I get to cross off a few personal items on my to-do list that help me feel my best self. It’s the time of the day I’m completely disconnected from my phone so I don’t get distracted checking texts, emails or social media. Over the years the routines have changed and evolved but the result is the same : I’m prepared for day in front of me. Today we’re going to dive into the 6 steps that I take to create momentum for the day ahead. Let's fire it up.

6 steps that I take to create momentum for the day ahead :

• Step 1 : Making my bed every morning helps build the initial momentum for the day ahead. As small of a step as it might be, it’s the first item on my daily to-do list I get to cross off which helps jumpstart my day.
• Step 2 : No phone for the first three hours of the day. Other than checking briefly to see if there are any emergencies, I put all of my attention towards my morning routine so that I can truly get myself ready for the day ahead. I’ve done my best to create healthy space between myself and being connected to the world at my finger tips. 
• Step 3 : Clearing my mind daily helps me acknowledge the good and bad thoughts that may arise. The combination of meditation and journaling gets my mind right and ready for the day ahead. 
• Step 4 : Completing creative work early on in my day is super beneficial because I have no distractions and I’m coming off a full nights rest which means I have the energy to think. 
• Step 5 : Morning sweat allows me to prepare my mind, body & soul for the day ahead. It truly warms me up for the next 24hrs ahead of me. 
• Step 6 : Eating a breakfast of a champion helps fuel me for the day ahead. In order to operate at my highest level, I need to fuel my body with the proper foods and breakfast necessary if I want to make the best of the 24hrs.

Challenge for the listeners :

• Spend 10minutes within the next 24hrs and consider how you spend the first hour of your day. Do you prioritize the routines that help you feel your best self? Are there certain changes you wish to make? Let this episode be the inspiration to hopefully help make the necessary changes you want
