- Morning routines, they're everywhere,
and we hear the same thing about them all the time.
- [Man] The most successful people.
- Successful people. - Successful people.
- Successful. - The most successful people.
- People that are successful have a morning routine.
- Morning routine.
- A morning routine.
- So try and try as you might,
you continue to search for the right one for you,
but nothing seems to stick, why?
You can't find what's inside
by constantly looking out, it's time to do you.
(upbeat music)
Good morning, good life, welcome back to Amy TV
where we come together to help you go
after the life that you want.
Exciting news, two fun things are about to happen.
Number one, it's that time of year
and you're about to live, laugh,
and love your way through the holiday season.
Two, it's gonna be a brand new year
at which point I assume you're going to try
to undo all of that hot mess that the holidays brings on.
Am I right?
Something that always comes to mind when we think
of self improvement is our morning routine
because, like I said before,
if the successful people are doing it,
then why shouldn't we?
I'm personally a big believer in starting your day
on your terms as a step toward living with intention,
but your morning is not gonna be like my morning.
My morning is not gonna be like Oprah Winfrey's morning.
Oprah's morning is not gonna
be like Richard Branson's morning and Richard's morning
is not gonna be like every other successful person
on the planet and why is that?
It's not about having the one right routine,
it's about having your own right routine.
The only morning routine you're ever going to need again
is the one that you design for your life,
and the one you actually follow through on.
The one that gets you excited about getting out of bed,
the one that gets you closer to your dreams and aspirations.
Most importantly, the one that doesn't give away your mind
and your time to the rest of the world
before you get to take advantage of it first.
When you start your day your way,
you are the leader of your own destiny,
I truly believe that.
Listen, we've talked a lot
about morning routines on this channel
because I'm unbelievably passionate about it.
I'm sure that's no secret at this point.
Morning routines are great.
We can point to them, they're tangible, they're practical,
we can do them, but the true key to success
is simply taking charge as early as you can at the start
of your day so that you can best prepare for the obstacles,
the things you cannot control that will inevitably happen.
Be proactive, not reactionary and then go with the flow.
This is something that I've made my mission
of this channel and everything that I do is to help you
do this better in your life
and with that I have some pretty exciting news.
My vision for helping you find the morning routine
that is right for you is finally going to be something
that you can hold in your hand.
One month from today,
Tuesday, December 10th 2019,
"Good Morning, Good Life" the book
is going to be launching on Amazon.
Thunderous applause!
(audience applauding)
So why is this book different?
Well, if you're gonna find the last morning routine
you're ever going to need,
we need to walk through five simple habits.
The first is to decide, decide you're ready for more.
Decide why you're doing what you're doing.
You wouldn't be watching this video,
you wouldn't be watching this channel,
you wouldn't be maybe interested in my book when it comes
out if you didn't think that maybe there's a small change
or a big change that you wanted to make for yourself.
A lot of times change comes with finding the time,
and if we're gonna find the time, well,
it might just be when you're sleeping
in a little bit later in the morning.
So we wanna reverse engineer that and figure it out,
but first we need a good enough reason
to get you out of bed.
The second habit is super important and it's to defy.
Defy the obstacles that are going
to come your way, they're inevitable.
We already know, you can already name them
because they're probably the reasons you haven't optimized
your mornings better than they are right now.
What are they, what can we do about them?
Let's get past it so we can get to the next part,
and that is to rise.
If you're gonna have a great morning routine,
you gotta get up, right?
But actually there are a lot of steps
before that part that need to happen
to set you up for success.
In order to increase your chances
of having the best start to your day,
you've gotta get some sleep.
So, we're gonna talk about this in this chapter
and all the things that come with the actual sleep part
that is a little bit before and that's a little bit after
that will help you have the best morning possible.
The fourth habit is to shine and this is the habit
that is going to make you feel like
you are owning your morning.
The things that you do everyday to start the day
that make it yours.
If you remember in a previous video,
we talked about the three fundamentals,
the three good morning guidelines
and that's what I talk about more in this book.
Your movement, your mindfulness, and your mastery.
Finding those for yourself
so that you can have the best start to your day.
And finally the fifth habit which is to thrive.
The morning is just the beginning, literally.
So what else are you doing throughout your day
to make the most of the life that you have?
Make the most of the connections you have,
make the most of the time that you have?
We're gonna dig into even more than
just morning stuff in this section.
There's so much to unpack there,
but I promise it's gonna be such a motivating process
for you to go through that's gonna help you find
a morning ritual that you will truly love.
This community on YouTube
and the beautiful people in Shine Squad,
my Patreon community, have been truly instrumental
in helping this book come to life,
and I'm so excited it's almost here.
I'm all about going after the life
that you want and leading a productive lifestyle
to make that happen.
So, I'm just so grateful that I get to share more
of what I've learned in my life with you
in this second book of mine, but that's not all.
Not only will you be able to get a copy
of the new book on Amazon,
there will also be an official
"Good Morning, Good Life" planner.
(squeals)
(clapping)
I've been working in partnership with my graphic designer
to come up with something really special
that compliments the book experience for you
so that you can not only keep track of your goals
and your reflections, but also those key things
that are gonna happen in the morning
how they're working for you so they can move you forward.
This is the ultimate gift to give yourself
or maybe somebody you know to kick the year off strong,
but it's not about resolutions, it's about revelations.
Revelations about yourself and what you truly want
so that you know exactly what it means to say
you're going after the life that you want.
Not what you think you're supposed to want.
There's so much more news and stuff to come
to do with the book in the next month.
I'm so excited to bring you on this journey with me.
Be among the first to get notifications about the book
when it comes out and all the giveaways

I'm truly, truly grateful for you
and for helping me see that this was a book that you wanted
and that I should bring out into the world
and so (panting) I think we're almost there.
Gosh, I do feel like I just birthed something, honestly.
Our relationship means so much to me
because it really helps me continue
to go after the life that I want
by being able to give to you
something that's helpful, so thank you.
That's all for today,
thank you so much for tuning in, I appreciate it.
As always, make sure you subscribe for good vibes.
Kiss the ones you love.
(kisses)
And go after the life that you want, cheers.
Hey, are you struggling to find time
for the things you love?
Feel like you're constantly on the go
but taking care of everyone else first?
You are not alone, and you deserve so much more.
Not only are you capable of taking on this challenge,
you already have all the tools it takes to make it happen.
That resourcefulness is all you need
to get activated by your new daily mantra.
"Good Morning, Good Life."
