Starting your day early can create a sense of having plenty of time for quality work, like being in a bubble of productivity. While not every morning feels like a "miracle morning," these personal growth time slots add up over time.

Establishing the habit of starting the day with activities for yourself can provide the energy needed to tackle a day filled with meetings and tasks beyond your control. You suddenly have time to read, meditate, learn a new language, exercise, write, or code.

To make the most of these mornings, prepare the night before. Have your desk ready, know what you’ll have for breakfast, and plan your first tasks. This preparation helps you find the motivation to get up and prevents starting the day by staring at your screen. Having a plan in place also avoids the temptation of digital distractions like notifications, emails, news, or social media.

After your morning session, take a walk if you’re working remotely or commute to work. During this short transition, you’ll often feel satisfied with your positive start and look forward to the next morning.
