Master your Morning Routine

Set a Regular Bedtime

Good mornings start the night before. Falling asleep and waking up on a consistent schedule is essential to reset your internal clock. After a few weeks, it will be easier to wake up without feeling groggy.

Quit the Snooze Button

Did you know that hitting the snooze button when your alarm goes off can have negative psychological effects? “Five more minutes” turns into ten more minutes turns into fifteen more minutes, which tells your subconscious that your commitments aren’t important. It’s time to start the day off right by jumping out of bed when your alarm clock rings.

Get To Work Early

Save yourself the unnecessary stress of being late to work. Yes, you will have to wake up earlier, but there are more positives than negatives to this. For one, you’ll beat the traffic before it even begins, giving you time to grab a coffee or breakfast on the way. You’ll also show yourself and your superiors that you are committed to your career.

Review Your Top 3 Tasks

The night before, write down three things you want to accomplish that day. Planning for the day ahead is an effective decision-making skill that will make you feel less overwhelmed as the day goes on.

Eat Something Light and Healthy

Everyone knows that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But what’s most critical is the type of food you consume in the morning. Something small, light, high in protein, and full of complex carbs will keep your
