I recently started the following morning routine:
Clean my room and make my bed
Do a couple body-weight exercises
Stretch
Drink a glass of water ...

I'd like to get into a routine with stretching/yoga and maybe bodyweight stuff, but it'd likely be at night when I'm awake and shower.
"...
Wonder how it became 9:12am
Get to work at 9:28am
..."
15 minute commute to work, nice!
$1400+ per month in rent to be in walking distance of work, but I don't know how to drive so pros and cons :)
Same
Same here.
4:30am : Wake Up, Take Meds,Shower.
4:45am : Coffee and Contemplation (This is what mornings are for)
5:00am : Journal/Bullet Journal Daily Goals.
5:30am : Read Blog Feed, (Feedly, roughly 400 feeds currently)
6:00am : Wake Kids, Get Ready for Work.
7:30am : Arrive at work 1hr before everyone else....
Profit....
If you wake up at 4:30 AM, what time do you sleep?
Normally I am in bed about 10-10:30
waking up at 6:30 am
stretching my muscles.
making some coffee.
putting the headphones in my ears (new music everyday).
getting to an open space in front of my house and walking back and forth for an hour.
having breakfast and going to work.
starting work at 8:30.
It normally varies for me, I have a terrible sleep schedule and I often get woken up in the middle of the night to fix something.
I aspire to the following routine:
I don't always get to the meditation, and that 8:00 walk gets fudged a lot if I get wrapped up in something, but it's an aspirational routine, after all! =)
I generally don't eat till lunch and work out (usually rock climbing or weights) around 6pm.
IMO routine's are key to freeing your mind to deal with other problems. How can you concentrate on fixing the n+1 problem if you spend 20 minutes finding what cloths to wear for the day..
A typical weekday morning routing:
Start time: 7am
The good days:
... in theory. It goes that well once or twice a week, the other scenario is:
I used to meditate a bit in the morning but these days I'm just too tired and just fall back asleep if I try.
I have a very simple routine which I picked up from a suggested video on Facebook. It had an army general tell his story about how he starts his day by making his bed and that small task sets him up for the day. I thought, sure I can do that. Next day, when I woke up - I made my bed. Surprisingly, I did the next tasks pretty efficiently. Sure, my will deteriorated through the day but I got my kick-start. I really recommend this. Also I recommend to start with the most important task of your day quickly as you have the will and energy to do it in the morning.
I'm really surprised that tons of people are not taking their breakfasts. I can't imagine working productively (on my case) without it!
Same here. I just learned a bit more about the relationship between food and brain biochemistry and I never start the day without it since then. Turns out your brain doesn't work well unless you have some energy sources available!
True. I think that's the reason why they say it is the important meal of the day.
1- drink glass of milk and eat an omlette
2- go to coffee shop and smoke only one cigarette with a dark espresso
Get up at 6 am.
Freshen up.
Workout from 6:30 am to 8 am.
Shower at 8:15 am.
Breakfast at 8:30 am.
Leave for work at 9 am.
(Better said than done XD )
Exactly my thought :P What I aspire to in the mornings is way more then actually happens.
