Mornings are the ideal opportunity to take time for yourself and prepare for a successful day, an open secret known by talented creatives and business people. Tailor a routine to your lifestyle by considering your longterm goals, circadian rhythms, and family life. While every morning routine is different, proven shared elements include waking up early, avoiding the snooze button, working out in the morning, starting off with slow and relaxing activities, and practicing mindfulness. Mornings can also be used to spend time with family before the demands of the workday. Prepare for disruptions of routines by practicing acceptance and trying your best to remain mindful in order to stay focused and calm in the day ahead.
