Today is part 4 in a 5 part series on how to make more time for gratitude. So far We’ve talked about breaking down your work time into intervals, strategically unplugging, and scheduling in your email and social media time. Today, it’s about Creating a morning routine. Get up at 5 am, or a little earlier than you already are and spend the first hour of your day on you. It doesn’t have to be an entire hour. It can be 30 minutes, 15 minutes, or whatever works for you. The point is, this is your ME time. This is the perfect time to exercise, meditate, write gratitude and eat breakfast. Instead of hitting the snooze button a few times, and then rushing around to get ready for work and get the kids off to school, wake up a little bit earlier and have a more stress free morning doing things for you. Check out the book The Miracle Morning to help establish your morning routine. Tomorrow in part 5 we’ll talk about something that I guarantee almost no one is doing.
