Just getting up with no plan is asking for failure.
Instead, start the evening before:
• Go to bed on time
• Lay out your clothes
• Schedule your workout
• Know what the plan for the day is
Then all you need to do is show up & execute.
Everyone grabs their phone when they wake up.
But now the apps on your phone determine how you spend your morning.
You owe it to yourself, put the phone away.
Why?
• Improves hydration
• Flushes toxins out of your body
• Helps you wake up and feel refreshed
• Reduces cravings for the rest of the day
Morning sunlight helps regulate your circadian rhythm, which will help you sleep better at night.
But even if it’s still dark, go outside and get some fresh air to help you wake up.
Daily reflection ensures you are in control of your life.
Other benefits include:
• Boosts mood
• Reduces Stress
• Sharpens memory
• Identify negative thoughts
• Increases emotional control
What does a great life look like for you?
What vision do you have for your life?
Who do you want to become?
Who are you grateful for?
What is your legacy?
Knowing what your day’ll look like helps reduce stress.
Clarify your to-dos to build a mental picture of your day.
This will help you feel in control of your day.
You end days feeling deflated when nothing meaningful was achieved.
Fix this by identifying one action (writing a report, playing Lego with your kids, etc) that’ll make today a win.
It doesn't matter what you do but do something.
30min walk, Yoga session, Crossfit class...
Prep your body for the day ahead.
Get the blood pumping.
Feel alive.
Whether for yourself or for the family, make the time to have your food prepped for the day.
This will avoid bad food choices later and create time to relax later.
Include planning for hydration to help your focus during the day.
Check Your Calendar & To-Dos
Avoid Checking Your Phone
Start With a Glass of Water
Connect With Your Why
Identify Your One Thing
Plan The Night Before
Get Outside
Meal Prep
Journal
Move
