What is going on everyone? It is Scott here welcome back now today I want to
talk about morning rituals morning habits morning routines because this if
I get this on point I'm on fire
now first up on the list is gratitude. Now I know people mention gratitude it is a
word that's used quite a lot but it does
have an amazing impact on my life and I think it can help you I start with a two
minute rant of gratitude can be big things can be small things and I just
say this in my head or out loud while I'm doing things from going for my
bedroom go into the bathroom gonna toilet brushing my teeth splashing
some cold water on my face which is a great way to wake me up and gives me
that alertness and then I hydrate with a glass of water one doing all that I am
practicing gratitude this gives me a real appreciation for what I have it
heightens my mood it strengthens my emotions and just gives me a really good
vibe really good start to the day next up is my morning meditation so I
start with one minute of breathing and I do some deep breathing here and then
after that it's just stillness and being present so this has done wonders to
reduce stress and anxiety in my life and I spend about 20 minutes in total of my
meditation practice all right next up gang is a full body stretch so I start
with a foam roll and I'll commence doing that and then I move into a variety of
stretching which helps me with my flexibility reduces aches and pains and
improves my posture this is also a great contributor to stress reduction and I
can take my friends over at unity gym so check their channel out they have a lot
of good videos on stretching and mobility for this one you want to spend
about 20 minutes next up is the home gym workout. I say home because at the
moment I'm home at strength coronavirus normally I would go to the gym itself
and do my workouts so I am currently doing a 6 day per week workout which hit
every muscle group twice and I mixed some strength training with some high
intensity so I'm getting that heart rate up as well so this not only keeps me in
good shape I feel amazing when I finish these
workouts at this point of the morning routine aren't feeling pretty bloody
good energy levels pumping I'm feeling engaged and enthusiastic I'm feeling
like yeah I can take on the world next up though is old shower time ah
yeah the old cold shower I use the Mel Robbins
five-second rule here to push past my brain convinced me that it's a bad idea
go on Scott just turn the hot tap on Scott ah think about nice shower
soothing on your skin don't let this happen. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Once I'm dressed I grab my cup
of tea and a whole office to start planning my day I've used different
planning methods from just writing in a scrapbook or using journals. The last little
while I've been using Brendan bouchard's high-performance planner so recommend
doing this it's it's amazing has great questions in there to ask and myself and
have my brain thinking about how I'm gonna show up today and deliver my best
while intertwining that into the different actions of the day lastly I
visualized my vision and my purpose and my goals in all areas of my life's and
my wealth my health my my finances my relationships my partner personal
development and this really helps me get in alignment and provide direction
emphasis on what's important to me before I start the day if you like this
