What is your morning routine?
I have heard nearly all successful people such as Tony Robbins, Grant Cardon, Timothy Ferris etc. describe their morning routine. Most of them do something along the lines of "Mind, Body, and Spirit" so I wrote down a routine for myself. I am interested in what your routine is and why it helps with your success.
4:00 - wake up
4:15 - coffee made
4:30 - read and post in bigger pockets for 30 minutes
5:00 - Conduct market research for 30 minutes
5:30 - Check personal emails
6:00 - Hygiene
6:15 - leave for the gym (listening to BP Podcast along the way)
7:00 - workout for 1 hour
8:00 - Shower
8:30 - relax for 30 minutes before starting the day job (Navy)
9:00 - begin work.
What really ended up happening on the first day:
4:00 - hit snooze
4:09 - hit snooze again
4:18 - awake and lie to myself for 5 hours
9:00 - start work with less sleep and in no better shape than I did the day before.
I obviously plan to make this much better and to actually follow the routine. I am interested in what other people are doing and why?
