Are you happy with your life? Are your where you want to be?
Fortunately, here are tips that will assist in completely changing your life.
Few hours of the day are more important than the early morning hours. The first hour is the day’s rudder. It sets the tone for the rest of the event.
The first few hours after you wake up set the tone for the rest of the day, affecting your mindset and productivity throughout the day.
The importance of the morning hours is why some of the world’s successful people carefully craft morning routines designed to help them start the day off right. If you would like to start each day in the best way possible, consider implementing some of these tips into your morning schedule.
Plan Your Day the Night Before
Planning your day, the night before may not exactly be part of your morning routine.
However, it’s a great way to get your day started right. In fact, you start your day with a plan in mind rather than waking up unsure of what you want to tackle first. Then wake up the next morning and put that plan into action.
By establishing a step-by-step method, you can avoid constantly asking yourself, “Okay, what’s next?”
Set Goals for The Day
Setting goals in the early morning is an effective strategy. Since most people are ambitious when they first start their day, you’ll feel more motivated to follow through with them if you set ambitious goals in the morning.
Avoid Checking Your Phone
One thing that should not be part of your morning routine is checking your phone or email as soon as you wake up. Particularly, it’s a distraction that can interfere with the rest of your morning routine.
At worst, it may be relaying disappointing news that can kill your motivation. Wait till your rest of the morning routine is complete, and your workday is started before you check your phone.
Plus, grabbing your phone first thing in the morning is a certain way to throw your entire morning routine off. Who hasn’t fallen into a WhatsApp hole before even getting out of bed?
Stretch and Exercise
Studies have shown that people who exercise in the morning are more likely to stick with an exercise routine than those who exercise in the afternoon.
The reason is when you wake up in the morning, you’re refreshed and full of energy. In the afternoon, after a long day of work, you may not have the energy or motivation to exercise.
Also, physical exercise in the morning helps you naturally clear mood stimulants by spreading in the body, thus relieving stress and improving your emotional state.
Read
Reading gets your body up and running in the same manner that exercising does in the morning. Whether you are reading a newspaper, novel or anything else that interest you.
The early morning hours are the perfect time to get a little reading in before you go off to work. My preference is always to read something inspirational or educational that gets you a bit pumped.
Meditate
One of the effective ways to reduce stress and tension is by meditation.
Just take a few minutes and sit quietly and let your mind calm. Before you leave for work, take the time to sit in silence, clear your thoughts and focus on your breathing.
One of the easiest ways to meditate is to focus on your breath, think about your breath, and count 1,2,3.
Conclusion
It’s necessary to develop a morning habit that works on weekends as well. Set your routine for seven days a week so you can get the most out of it and stick to it!Own your morning so you can own your day. If you can change your entire day with consistent positive thoughts, you can change your entire life.
