Is it possible to craft a great\u00a0day even if you wake up on the wrong side of the bed? \u00a0Habits and rituals make kicking off a great day more likely. Sometimes it comes down to doing\u00a0one thing as\u00a0many\u00a0achievers have found.<\/p>\n

There is no\u00a0one-size-fits-all solution for everyone or every\u00a0morning. The infographic above makes that clear. Finding what works for you is the key. Yes! Remember too that your day may start a little differently on different days of the week.<\/p>\n

This list is working for me right now. Check it out!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Get up as early<\/strong><\/a> as possible while allowing for a good night sleep. It is important to get enough sleep in order to make your routine successful.<\/li>\n
  2. Read success statements<\/strong> or affirmations<\/a> out loud. I picked this up from Napoleon Hill. (Read Think and Grow Rich<\/a><\/em>)<\/li>\n
  3. Make a warm drink and settle into my favorite chair to read a book for 30 min<\/strong>. The books vary, usually inspirational or informative non-fiction. It’s time to feed my mind and spirit.<\/li>\n
  4. Workout for 30-60 min<\/strong>. In my case I enjoy resistance training. I have my equipment at home which removes any excuses for not doing it. This is important! Make sure it’s easy, so you can build the habit.<\/li>\n
  5. Listen to music as I hop in the shower and then prepare a hardy breakfast<\/strong>. Having a substantial breakfast early in the morning is important to maintaining a balanced metabolism.<\/li>\n
  6. Take 30 min to respond emails and engage<\/strong> in current conversations in my social media circles.<\/li>\n
  7. Keep updated by reading on topics online<\/strong> related to my work and industry for 30 min. This way I’m informed and better able to assist others, share, and produce material relative to you, my audience.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    After that I’m ready to begin my work for the day. My first stop with be to do some forward-moving, often creative, work<\/strong> on my business.<\/p>\n[reminder]What do you do to kick of a great day? How did my list sound to you?[\/reminder]\n
