You’ve heard the advice:

 

• Wake up at 5 am and get your routine right 
• Take cold showers to spark up your creative brain 
• Have a routine to gain maximum productivity
• Eat like a tadpole and not like a frog (what does that even mean?)

 

These types of advice are not about doing the things themselves. Instead, the underlying truth is when you’re stuck, you should break your routine and try something new.
