ONE MORNING AT A TIME
How to
create the ultimate
morning routine.
Welcome
I am so excited to have you and so glad that you've decided to
take charge of your mornings, and make the first few hours of
the day your best hours.
The Why
UNDERSTANDING WHY YOU NEED TO SAVOR YOUR MORNINGS
It just so happens to be crucial that you start your day the right way, and on the right
foot.
I know it may sound cheesy but it couldn’t be truer. How you start your day and what you
do during those early hours is directly linked to how the rest of your day, or even week for
that matter, will play out.
By getting up an hour or two earlier, you give your mind and body time to start the wake-
up process, and you can start your day in a peaceful manner, rather than feeling rushed
and hasty.
Savor those crispy morning hours you have to yourself and make the most of them.
Take this time to work on yourself, fuel your body with amazing food (and delicious
coffee), practice self-care and more importantly, make time for your dreams.
“Oh, who has time to dream or do that thing that they really want to do?”
The people who think this way must not prioritize their time very well. Waking up early is a
wonderful way to clock in a few extra hours in a day. Even if you have a full-time job, kids,
dogs and all those responsibilities that come with it, I am sure you can find half an hour
or even 15 minutes for your dreams.
Sometimes 10 minutes is all you need to take action and move the needle.
Benefits
SOME OF THE MANY BENEFITS OF AN EARLY RISE
INCREASED CREATIVITY
When you wake up, your mind is completely clear and inspiration has a much higher
chance of dropping by to inspire new ideas to flourish.
It’s as if we unconsciously produce creative ideas and thoughts in our sleep, and when
we wake up, they are right there to greet us.
This is due to the prefrontal cortex is at its most active state in the morning. This is the
part of the brain linked to setting long term goals, decision making, planning, and self-
control.
I devote the hours in the morning for writing songs, blog posts and whatever else
requires deep focus.
MORE MINDFUL
Being more mindful comes naturally with waking up early. We have those first few hours
in complete solitude.
Embrace the quietness, sit in silence, practice gratitude for a few minutes, and really
become aware of yourself and your surroundings.
Some may say this is corny, but being mindful about your life has amazing benefits for
your overall health and how you welcome the day.
Benefits
SOME OF MANY BENEFITS OF AN EARLY RISE
Early risers have their why clearly stated, goals and actions in order, and they know
exactly how and what to take action on in the morning.
There’s really no need to wake up THAT early if you’re just going to stare into space. Am I
right?
BOOSTS PRODUCTIVITY
Your intentions for the morning hours are clear.
Since your tasks for the day are planned so heavily in advance, your mind won’t be
playing catch up and you’ll be able to check those to-do’s off in a jiffy.
By waking up earlier, you allow yourself more time to focus on your most important and
time-consuming tasks.
And since the rest of the world has yet to wake up, you avoid distractions and can focus
on your to-do list without any interruptions.
IMPROVED SLEEP
If you wake up and go to bed at the same
time every day, you’ll be in tune with your
earth circadian rhythm - in other words -
your body’s natural sleeping cycle.
MORE PROACTIVE
When you wake up early and make the
commitment to yourself, you are in complete
charge of your time.
Checklist

Create something
KEY POINTS
TO REMEMBER:
1. Keep it simple
2. Start slow
A SAMPLE ROUTINE - WEEK 1 3. No decisions
Go to bed 30 minutes earlier, so you’ll have time to whine down, tire your
eyes and read a little something before you drift off to sleep.
Get an old school alarm clock if you usually use your phone as your alarm.
Slowly but surely, work your way back to the desired wake up time.
Try and stick to the sampled schedule to keep your inner circadian rhythm
(sleeping pattern) happy and to avoid shocking your body.
Always remember your WHY and motivation for changing your morning
routine.
THE ROUTINE
KEY POINTS
TO REMEMBER:
1. Keep it simple
2. Start slow
A SAMPLE ROUTINE - WEEK 2 3. No decisions
Week 2 will be the hardest week. Push through your old habits and follow the
schedule, no matter what.
Use the 5-second rule by Mel Robbins: When your body wakes up naturally,
count backward from 5-4-3-2-1 and get your butt out of bed. If you do this, your
brain won’t have time to convince you to go back to sleep.
You should have reached the desired wake-up time by this point. Remember that
it’s super important for your body to get 7-8 hours of sleep so you should
preferably be going to be at around 9 - 9:30 PM.
Decide on a wake-up time that works for your schedule. Also, don’t be hard on
yourself.
