Creating your best morning routine is one of the greatest feelings you can experience as a high performer. There is simply nothing else like it. That’s because when you create your best morning routine, ever -- you get to enjoy waking up without whacking the snooze button, wake up feeling rested, and enjoy high-level productivity all day long.

However, there are many obstacles you have to overcome before you can get there. Not only do you have to overcome the nagging negative self-talk of “I am not a morning person,” the fear of not being able to maintain it, and overcoming any underlying resistance – but you also have to overcome limiting beliefs holding you back, which can be the most difficult challenge of all. All of this can leave you falling well short of the mark and stop you from ever creating your dream morning routine.

Fortunately, though, designing a morning routine customized to you and your body and your goals doesn’t have to be as challenging as you think. Far from it, in fact. Simply by implementing the right tried-and-tested techniques, you can create your best morning routine ever without experiencing any of the common frustrations.

What was the tone you set for your day this morning? Was it rushing? Did you hit snooze? Better yet, what time did you go to bed last night?
