Do you do this in the morning?

I wake up, checking my CPA earnings and it gets me in a great mood everyday. I am ready for anything

Always a hot shower to start the morning works for me.

Then breakfast, then go out and water the plants for a few minutes to give me a zen like state.

Then go to my desk and clear the clutter, and first things first, check my site/keyword stats, Adsense/Amazon/Paypal/stocks, checking my email (1 hour max for these, they could be time suckers if not watched), review yesterday's tasks (done? not done?) then write a todo-list and agenda for the day.

I am a later riser. I get up around 10:00am and the first thing I do is check my emails and overnight earnings.

While sitting at the computer I have breakfast.

After that, I do whatever I have planned for that day, but any spare time I spend working on my sites.

Those questions are very powerful and necessary for knowing themselves. Without knowing my self, I will never know this world. And by the second question I can setup my goal. Thanks for sharing your thought with us.

I start with meditation--usually 10 minutes or so. Just something to get me centered and focused for the day ahead. Then I like to think about what I want to accomplish that day and set the intent. I find I get a lot more done when I take time for this step. Also, I like to come up with a few things from the day before that I am thankful for, express gratitude, and then come up with one thing I can do today to move closer to my goal. If I manage to get through all these things my day is so much better!

I always start with a cold shower, that is the only way to get me awake fully, then breakfast, and my things to do list which I try to prepare the previous night.

Here's mine:
-wake up and spring out of bed => Yes
-slam 500ml of water =>No
-breakfast immediately => No
-10 minutes of exercise => Make it half hour
-10 minutes of meditation => No
-two journaling questions as I learned to do from ted nicholas => never
-What am I feeling? => I dont have those toughts
-What do I want? => Break fast !!!

DanteRomero,

great things you share here. But morning is practically the same, there is only one difference: I meditate while i'm in bed, and the main thing in this meditation is to say "thanks" to god, that i woke up today, than i can work and can love.

I usually smile, enjoy the existence before I get up, then everything goes well

I agree with you exel, starting your day with a smile is a very good habit. It works well for me too.

Wake up, tooth brush, read my bible, prayer, check mails, check rankings, breakfast,

wake up
get out of bed
wipe a comb across my head
go into a dream

with due apologies to john, george, ringo and paul

Wake up and spring out of bed
put on some worship music
give thanks and command my day
take a shower and prepare
check on my activities for that day
set to go

Wake up..
Review my "written" values, goals and weekly schedule..
Have breakfast..
..and then spend the day doing one thing that will move me closer to each of my goals.

I start each morning with the following:
30 minutes personal development (audio, reading or video)
Gratituding - write the 10 things I am grateful for that are coming to me (big results)
25 x written affirmations
Check opt-in stats, facebook ads, analytics
Answer e-mails
Then I begin the 6 point check list of dollar productive activity for the day, which I always write out the night before.
I get a lot done when I follow this through, not to mention the good results that amount from it.
Hope it helps someone.

Whenever I woke up, I turn on the computer first and have a coffee. Then 10 minutes I'll be starving so I can check our refrigerator and eat anything I can eat

By the way you're routine seems very interesting and healthy! I guess I need to post this as my computer background.. cool!

I usually work out, shower, get on the computer with my coffee and breakfast. I try to pick up where I left off the day before, or implement a new plan.

I don't check emails until late in the day, unless I'm expected to respond to one.

Today I was not motivated enough, I spent the whole morning scanning the dailies till noon, then rushed to work.

An interesting idea indeed.

Get up, shower, browse the internet and leave for work.

Don't you wash your teeth before having breakfast? j/k

I get up as late as I can, do all the necessary stuff, and then go to work.

Prayer and meditation, then workout, then coffee and breakfast, then work on the task list I made the day before.

I'd love to stick to a nice routine like you guys, but I haven't been able to do that. I guess it's time to sit tight and get busy.

Thanks for the tips everybody.

Wake up, wash up, brew a pot of coffee, smoke a cigarette, write my task lists for the day, drink coffee as I visit my website and then I'm out the door. Not the healthiest of routines but I'm not much of a morning person anyway.

I do coffee, 20 minutes of boxing then jump in the shower. Good morning world.

I woke every morning with thanksgiving in my heart that I am still alive. Talking to God is my first priority.

I start my day with a prayer. Prayer makes me in the mood for starting a good day.

I was thinking about my last night success dream..

I'm a late riser, I only see the morning once in a blue moon.

I do nothing and "stone" for 10 minutes

Wow.
That's a very hectic schedule, man.

My routine probably is to wake up and switch on my computer. Almost never do a breakfast just after i do wake up. And i hate to wake up early!

I really love the way you think guys.
Most of you have so positive energy!

Depends what I'm doing on those days as sometimes I need to be on the comp, or sometimes I need to wake up to go gym.

Days I need to be on the comp, I just wake up, get a drink and food maybe and then switch the comp on, and do my stuff. The food and drink may come after.

Gym days, I set my alarm to wake up using Sleep Cycle so I'm refreshed, then I shower, eat and go gym. Going to the gym sets my day greatly. Less me relieve a lot.

ThatMichaelKid, i used running at mornings as my routine for a while, but after that i wanted to sleep lol

I get up, take my 0.5L bottle of water, my mp3 and my running shoes.

I then jog for 30 minutes and think and feel all the things I'm grateful for, I visualize myself having already achieved what I want for the day and I FEEL ABSOLUTELY GREAT!

Zannix, after your post i wanna get back to meditation

Exactly what I do!!!

before i leave bed in morning, 15 minutes of meditation then on my desk with breakfast and 2 cups of coffee, double click my playlist and kick start with some rap and start checking stats and replying to emails. thats everyday except Tuesday. Tuesday is NO PC DAY and i do some unusual things which i don't do on regular days like going out with friends and visit to temples or peaceful places like beach or even on my firm house and eating some fresh fruits LOL.

Any link about meditation in youtube or something?

Thanks for bringing it up Dante. Makes me realize how important meditating is.

You ever try squeezing a fresh lemon in your water? amazing the power of lemon. research it or just try it.. the affect is fairly noticeable

i also like making sure the water is ice cold.. some people disagree about the health benefits of this but i feel great... glass of ice cold water really wakes you up.


i like a lot of your routines.

its important to get some water in your system. the brain needs water to function at high levels and after 5 to 10 hours of sleep its really lacking water.

exercise is also great for getting oxygen in your system. if your not fit a simple walk around the block is enough. (deep breathing also works)

writing goals keeps you moving forward in the right direction.

i like reading something inspirational.. magic of thinking big, think and grow rich are some really good ones. if any wants more ideas just ask.

Meditation &gratitude.... .. i like to take 10 minutes a few times throughout the day.. nothing fancy.. i can be anywhere as long as i take this time to think alone..

eating a healthy breakfast.. get a balance of carbs, pro, fats.. make sure its healthy.

and most important.... TAKE ACTION on your goals for the day!



oh and i saw a post on affirmations.. i tried the writing them down each day and found it difficult to keep up this habit too.. what works for me is memorizing a few simple affirmations and repeating them to yourself throughout the day...

wake and bake for me every day!



HA just kidding. Thanks the universe and God.

Coffee
Water
Go outside
Sit for a while
Get the laptop and go back outside

i actually do everything you have mentioned !!! haha

I wake up early and do some exercise. After this I spend sometime with my little daughter. I check the stats and earning after completing my breakfast.

I usually spend the first 20 minutes for meditation then wear my shoes for some exercises.
Take a bath, eat breakfast and open the computer

I do these (though only for 1 month!) -

1. My alarm clock starts screaming!
2. I turn it off!
3. I sleep again!!!!!!!!!!!!

I even placed the alarm clock in a veeerrrrrryyyyy distant place! But did the same thing over and over again! Why? 'Cause I am in vacation!!!

Wake up.
Oil pulling for 15 minutes
Feed the dogs
Feed myself
Vitamins
Work out.

I wake up and listen to my daily audio to get in the right mindset for the day.
I have breakfast and start my day.

Careful with springing out of bed. Studies show that cardiac arrests happen to more people who jump out of bed. Take your time so let your blood pressure normalize before getting out. Saying a prayer of gratitude for being alive is a good way to do that.
