This Is a True Story…
Summary
- Be wary of overly long morning routines; they can drain your energy before the workday starts.
- Practicality is key; spending three hours on a morning routine is excessive and not the most efficient use of time.
- Simplify your day for productivity; consider cutting down activities like grounded walking, gratitude journals, vision boards, and ice plunges if they take too much time.
- Direct your energy towards productive work rather than exhaustive routines; you'll accomplish more.
- Results speak for themselves; a person who reached out to me found that by reducing his morning routine to focus on work, his productivity and life improved significantly.
- The core lesson: more hours of actual work leads to more getting done.

How To Take Action
I would suggest streamlining your morning routine to save energy for the work that really matters. Here's how:
- First, limit your morning prep to the essentials. If you're walking grounded, journaling, vision boarding, and ice plunging, pick just one that energizes you most.
- Next, make sure your morning activity takes no more than 30 minutes. You want to get to the real work quickly.
- When writing your to-do list, focus on three main tasks that will push you forward the most. Forget the rest for now.
- Pour your main energies into actual work. Think about what tasks will help your business or personal growth the most and do those first.
- Keep track of your results. At the end of the week, see how much more you've accomplished. This will help you see the value in working more and routine-ing less.
- Remember this simple truth: the more you work on the right things, the more you'll achieve.
By making these changes, you'll free up more time for the high-value work that really moves the needle. That's how you get ahead.
