Wanting to be up to date with world news is okay, but you really don’t need to do it first thing in the morning.If you’re being bombarded with news, updates, and negativity first thing in the morning, you’ll take that negative energy with you for the entire day.Mindlessly surfing the internet can cost you more time and energy than you might realize.

Don't Use Social Media

The truth is that if you’re setting your to do-list first thing in the morning, you’re already too late!You need to know your number one priority the night before, and have a plan in place to start working on it immediately. That’s how the most successful people in the world, from the greatest writers of today (like J.K. Rowling and Stephen King) to the most successful artists in history, control their mornings.

Never Write Your To-Do List

Again, you may claim that you don’t have the time, but consider that catching up on social media or email is really allowing others to dictate what you do with your time.Spend a few more minutes in your “me” zone, and you’ll be surprised at how much more energy and time you feel you have when you do finally have to face the world.

Never Check Emails

Sleeping longer is probably one of the greatest desires you had back when you were working for a big corporation. But when you hit the snooze button you are subconsciously telling your big goals and dreams that they don’t matter. That leads to a lack of urgency in life, lower productivity, and frustration by the end of the day.

Never Hit The Snooze Button

If you start your day by complaining about your job, partner, family, or whatsoever, you’ll take that negative mood with you for at least a few hours, sometimes even for the entire day.By complaining, you focus on obstacles and problems, which makes it harder to recognize opportunities. It’s nothing more than a surefire way to start your day on the wrong foot.

Don't Complain
