7 Morning Habits That Changed My Life | PRODUCTIVE MORNING ROUTINE

Рет қаралды 623,524

Күн бұрын

With the new year here, I recently hit the reset button on some of my daily habits that had fallen to the wayside during the holidays. And, it makes SUCH a difference in my day. I have 7 habits I try to follow every morning and when I do it’s seriously LIFE CHANGING.
For me, a productive morning almost always becomes a productive day and productive days lead to productive lives. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not super productive every single day. Some days I roll out of bed, throw on yesterday’s dirty leggings, and the most productive thing I do all day is make sure my toddler doesn’t inflict self-harm on himself. But, in general, these are the guidelines I like to follow.
Now, I have found in order to have a productive morning DO you have to be VERY intentional about it. It doesn’t just happen. That’s why I’m sharing those intentional habits with you that I’ve adopted. These are the habits that have changed my morning which in turn has honestly changed my life to make me more productive and efficient with my time. And, everyone is different so maybe not every single one of these will work for you but my hope is you can gain some nuggets of wisdom from my habits, and hopefully inspire your own productive morning.

I am probably one of your weirdest fans, I got your humor right away, and appreciate it. I lost who I thought I was, but thats a long story, anyway, i was once more organized than I have been recently. I went through a huge thing, got deeply depressed and then so now I'm also not as mobile so I've been in need of this kind of help. I probably won't do it perfect or even close but it helps to know of the ideas other have. One of the endearing, if not annoying things my mom used to do was to call me every morning to try to help me in her way, she always asked me what I have planned for dinner. One of the actual few questions she ever asked me, so it's taken me a long time and many tears to get to where I can see that as a good tip to help me prioritize, and that's as nice as I can be for now. Thanks for your tips and I will really get good use of those tips that resonated with me. I'm much older than you so I don't have to deal with little ones anymore but I have to try to keep myself up and routines, plans, etc. help a great deal.

I tried getting up at 5 every morning (my littles are up by 6 AM) and even if I don’t make a sound …it’s like they can smell me or something! They will wake up at 5 if they hear or sense that Mama is awake. Then I get sleepy/cranky littles that needed that hour of sleep. I’ve tried to think of many ways to get around this. Including dim reading lamp at my bedside, water bedside, coffee maker in my room. Even giving my husband full reign in the morning and leaving the house at 5 for a jog or workout. I get frustrated and even depressed when I can’t get my morning time. Sometimes I think I need to lower my expectations and just accept at this season in my life I don’t get morning time. One day I will……

I plan weekly so I know what is to come. I have a running grocery list in the kitchen and add to it as the week progresses. Every night after the littles are to bed, I set everything out that will be needed in the AM. Bookbags, diaper bag, lunches, my purse, shoes, and coats. I organized it on the kitchen table and everyone grabs their items and we head out.

As a teacher I need to know we can eat as soon as we come home, not wait for me to cook it. Half an hour to cook dinner, half an hour for me time in the morning. Cooking dinner in the morning has made all the difference.

rslama912 Cook your meat and proteins ahead of time! Makes all the difference because it's usually the meats that take longer. Carbs and veggies are easy because you can always serve brown rice, pasta, breads, or tortillas. Veggies can be salad of frozen veggies quickly sauted. Cook ground beef and freeze in 1 pound batches, etc. Easy to make spaghetti or tacos when the meat is already cooked.

@themcnears 4 жыл бұрын

@rslama912 I meal prep for 2 weeks prior and choose food that is quick and easy to make. We have a rotation of meals and a dry-erase meal schedule, only on the weekends do we ever try new recipes. The night before, I take out whatever we are making (say ground beef for Tacos) and move it to the fridge. I make my tea and start on dinner immediately when I wake up. I've been doing the routine for so long its just second-nature. Check menu, take out food to thaw, go to bed, wake up, tea, cook dinner, get ready, work.

Kinda late - 10 months late lol. But... the reason you feel tired even though you get a total of 10 hours of sleep is because you are constantly woken up and don't have uninterrupted 8 hours of sleep. Once the kids are older and you can get more uninterrupted sleep you will feel better. Also, good nutritious eating habit helps a lot.

Great tips! I used to get up right when my son does (6am and he just turned 1) but then I developed a habit of getting up an hour before him to do a small workout, drink lots of water and then get my coffee going. It gave me a good push to get the day going. I usually get out of work at 8:30pm. So I typically come home, take a shower , eat dinner with my husband and then go to bed like an old lady. I actually like that we don't do the dishes every night cuz it's the very first thing I tackle after feeding my son in the morning. Gives me a fresh start to the day. I'm constantly making lists as well they definitely help.

Got my planner in the mail yesterday and I love it. It has a cover can easily be wiped down. It is so simple and easy to use. Each month starts with a page to put goals for the month, next is the month at a glance, followed by each week at a glance. I love that there is lots of space for lists at the top of each day followed a schedule at the bottom to plan when I’m going to MAKE time to do it. I have lists on pieces of paper all over the place, but can’t find them when I have extra time to do something. There’s something about writing things down all in one place that makes this so attractive and functional. My phone calendar was not working for me. I feel so encouraged. I gave the same review to the seller. Thanks Kallie for introducing me to this organizer.

My best personal habit is to put the dishes in to soak before retiring, them wash all the dishes in the morning. For ME, the idea of cleaning the dishes, sink, & counter makes me start my day feeing like I've already accomplished something. This actually sets me up motivated for whatever comes next. When I still had roommates, I even washed their dishes for them. I wasn't trying to guilt-trip them, just leave a nice kitchen. And I took joy in the accomplishment; it was no imposition. (Can't say my roommates appreciated this, though.) Your tip to wake up 'earlier' (then responsibilities require you to): I've actually been doing this for decades. It allows me to go at my own speed, gently instead of 'under the gun'. It lets me establish awareness of my environment and take time to appreciate it, to 'smell the flowers'. It lets me ease into the day and wake up naturally instead of being FORCED. We all need time to relax and exist and respect our own sensibilities. My day does not go well without this quiet, gentle 'launch' on my own time and on my own terms.

I'm a work in progress though. Love your work - thanks for sharing. x Mel

Lists help me stay on track, but instead of crossing out what’s finished, I run a yellow or pink highlighter over it. If it’s only half done, highlight halfway. At the end of the day I used to feel depressed that I hadn’t done anything. This way I can look at the list, see what’s highlighted, and feel “WOW! I got a lot done today.” And if I do something extra that wasn’t on the list, it gets added and highlighted. Important at day’s end to recognize that you were successful and to appreciate yourself.

Love your videos. When I was home with my 4 kiddos I used a huge desk calendar to organize, each kiddos had a highlighter color!. Now I use Google calendar, I love it! Still color coded and all. Only the youngest @ 18yrs old at home now! Love your organization tips, we are downsizing in 21'.

Great video. I do some of the things you suggest already. I've been setting an alarm in the mornings before my daughter wakes up just to have a shower. I was staying up at night to do that & waking up whenever she did. Now I make sure she's up at 7am daily (including weekends). I work late at night unfortunately & don't get much sleep because of it. By the weekend, I'm napping during her nap.

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. I swear you could have been raised by me. Your tips today are exactly how I was as a mother with children still at home. Now that I’m retired & it’s just my husband & me, I’m not quite as strict with my habits, but still follow most of them. My husband still is in the workforce, so I have more me time & can plan things differently (like sleep in a bit longer, actually read a book in it’s entirety without letting other things slide & even take a few minutes to sit & have a cup of tea & do nothing @ all!). I have always liked making certain that things are straightened up & no dirty dishes before going to bed. I know that I will wake up with a calmness facing me. I also always swept & mopped the kitchen floors right before heading off to bed.

Just watching this video makes me want to be productive right now lol. I love that youre open about how you dont always use these tips amd you struggle with things too amd that things like changing habits can take awhile. Some people when they give tips come off as people who think their better amd everything comes easy to them. But not you, you're like a helpful non judgmental friend lol. I struggle with turning off my tv or, in my case, my phone because I watch sculpting videos to fall asleep. So maybe a solution for that is to not watch anything on my phone while getting ready for bed time, but right when I actually get in bed and lay down, then turn on a sculpting video and have my screen light really dim. Right now I'm into 3d pen vids. They're usually like 10 minutes (sped up) . I fall asleep way before then. lol

It's a subconscious thing. You're trying to get back some "alone/me time" that you don't have during the rest of your long/busy day.

My wake up time to have ME time is 5:15am. It is not always easy, but YES...doing it does make it a more productive morning and day. I have two children under two - so, busy is BUSY!! I love that we have almost the same tips - but I have to be better at drinking water and making the lists in the morning...and getting my outfit ready the night before. And...totally going to put an alarm on my phone with time that I need to be in bed. Thanks for sharing!!!!

These are great tips!!! Getting ready is so key, it makes me feel completely different when I shower, put on freshly washed clothes and perfume, it’s a game changer ❤️ I feel sluggish when I keep the same clothes on that I slept in, or the same clothes from the day before.
