Useful morning routines

 - Tim Cook, Richard Branson, and tons of other successful people are early birds, right? So from that moment on, my alarm was set for 5:30 in the morning.

- Next up was meditation. Doing this practice in the morning allows you to connect with yourself and kick-start your day with positive energy. - After that, it's good to do an easy 2- to 3-minute workout. - Practicing meditation also didn't go so smoothly at the beginning. After trying numerous apps and techniques, I found that simple breathing works best for me. - Having a quick workout wasn't a problem for me. Moreover, it really helped me get in touch with my body and shake off some of the tiredness before showering. - Making to-do lists for the day turned out to be exceptionally fulfilling and motivating. By day 10, I’d begun to make 2 lists a day: one for my personal goals and another for work tasks and responsibilities. - About halfway through my experiment, I got into time management, which turned out to be another amazing discovery for me! - When I found ways to upgrade my career, I turned to my personal life and added one more habit to my routine: writing morning pages. This endless stream of consciousness opened my eyes to numerous personal problems I never realized I had. - Make it a habit to write down all the things you're grateful for every evening. - Stay hydrated. Toward the end of my experiment, I read that having a glass of water before breakfast helps to wake up your digestive system and set it up nicely for the day. - Make yourself a smoothie. Natural smoothies are full of the nutrients and vitamins that your body needs as it wakes up.
