Many people have difficulty getting up early, even though they have been doing it for years as part of their studies or work. For them it remains a difficult and even painful trial. But as for everything in life, it is better to see the glass half full rather than half empty, so today we present to you the benefits to be early in order to motivate you and make your alarm clock more Nice for you. It often happens that you get up late and then you have to do everything in a hurry, often by hurting your job, or by stressing yourself enormously. On the other hand, if you get up early you have time to do all your tasks quietly, take a good bath to relax, choose the clothes that best suit you, prepare a delicious breakfast for you and your Family, to get to work with a few minutes in advance, in short, to do all those things you would like to do before you go out of your home. If you have a lot to do, you can do them in the morning good Hour, because at that moment there is no noise of cars, children, conversations, and other forms of noise pollution to which we are exposed on a daily basis. For example, in the morning, reading is more productive than in the evening because you have a lot of energy and your mind is rested.

When I get up in the morning I try to exercise and then meditate for a few minutes. I also write down at least one thing I am grateful for in my life. I started doing this about two years ago and it has made an incredible difference in my life. Before, I felt like I was falling apart. Now, I feel like I have a consistent touchstone every morning that gets me going strong for the day. Great post today @cryptoctopus. Thanks for your work on this.

Well i just start with a cup of Tea in the Mini Garden area and Relax in the Midst of the Nature listening to the Chirping of the Birds that make me happy,after that get Ready for the day and list down all the Things that i need to do on that day and simply do those things first which can be done fast to improve productivity and give some boost to myself i am not a great person in giving someone advice :)

Fun to discus this matter! Well I practicly always do the same in the morning. My alarm goes off, I stop the alarm go for a pee and head straight to the terras to smoke my morningcigarette :). Then i go to my computer and surf to the page of coinmarketcap to check how bitcoin did when I was asleep, checking steemit to see if it suddenly has risen to 10 dollars (wich still hasnt happend) and checking the other altcoins. The next step is checking my post under tab blog, surf to steemnow.com to check the actual price there and to see if I am not at 100% votingpower while looking if I got some upvotes on comments made and Wich percentage. Then I wasted already to much time and I need to shoot my cigarettes in a hurry to prepare for work, putting some beverages in my backpack and hyrru to the bus. while heading to the bus I remember i dont got any food so I make a pitstop at the local shop or panos. Thats so what what happens every day haha. I need this routine. I need to do these things in that order. If for once I do it differently I feel quite strange and it affects my day. Sometimes in a positive way but sometimes not. In the comming 3 years alot will change. It will be different since i will go live with my girlfriend some other place and i will ahve a car at my disposal.

Well, opposite to the popular opinion I don't start a day with a beer. More like healthy breakfast and a big coffee. I'm angry at myself that I immediately check coinmarketcap. I should really stop that. But hey! Better than facebook addiction :D

Mentioned you in my last post and sent people your way. I hope it gets you some more clicks. Also, used your picture but I can edit if you want. 100% here,too.

Cheers!

First thing is usually a cup of tea then meditation. Great post :)

Every morning, when I wake up. My routine are the following, I check and change my little girl diaper, she's 1 year and 2 months now. I also prefer formula to feed her. Then, fix myself for my day job and ate my breakfast to fuel my day. And before I go to work, I wake her mom (my wife) and drive to work. Her mom also had to go office so she's the one who wake my little Jane's nanny.

When i wake up in the morning, the first thing come in my mind to make a nice Moroccan tea with mint, after i star thinking what i have to cook for lunch, after i made a list of the activities which i have to do for my journey, then I can start my day happily without stress , and i like to read arabic poem, and some social stories, because i like the literature, it's my specialty, and the other time i give it to my daughter for playing and enjoying.

Some good advice here, i suck at mornings but i am always up early! I think i might give some of your suggestions a go for the next week and see how it goes.

Do you follow this daily?

nice picture

Mmm very interesting... not sure I would have ever really disclosed all of this here but I will because, well why not... honestly is key... No judgements?
I have got myself down to a 6 hour sleep schedule over months of training to be able to get enough sleep and focus during my awake hours (sometimes I may nap lol) so I tend to take up rather early around 5 or 530am. I am planing on a morning routine that involves the gym starting Sept, but for now... I wake up, put a pot of water on to boil for coffee, stretch, brush my teeth and do the other morning bathroom stuff, maybe a shower depending on hooow early I awaken. I then make my coffee which I use a french press, I let it sit for about 8 - 10 minutes. Here is where i feel some judge but oh well, its meeee, but I smoke a little bit of MJ to get the creative juices flowing in my mind(I know its a bad habbit, but its almost like a guilty pleasure that I find helps me rather than harms me, mentally that is. I only have the odd drink here or there so its not like im a raging substance user :D) I then pour the coffee, head to my computer desk and start scrolling through crypto news. I then head over to youtube and now Dtube and follow along for an hour or so with a few of my fav. mentors as they talk about many things. next I head to steemit and check all my replies and do a quick scroll through my feed to see if anything pops out quickly. Then I check my trading accounts and see if there are any good looking charts to dabble into for the day. I then head back to Steemit and do  a more serious scroll through my feed and interact with the stories i feel are good ones ........ phew....  by then the ol' lady is up and I either head to work or well head for breakfast or something along those lines..... 
My next goal is to somehow setup my work station in an out door or very naturally lit area somewhere so that when the fall season hits I can be comfortable in a natural setting while I do my morning routine...... Phew... 
Cheers :)

I immediately make myself a coffee - without it I will not wake up, and open my aipad. Until I see the exchange of crypto-currencies and Steemit, I will not calm down :)

Usually the first thing is a shower, then start up my pc, then make a cup of tea and get me some bread while I watch some tv-show. Not always going like that though. Sometimes I am thinking like "hey" let's check Steemit for a moment, and before I know it it's 2 hours later....

What is most important to me in the morning? Waking up feeling positive!

What simple thing I could do in the morning that would make me feel better? Getting up and moving!

What activities makes my brain foggy in the morning? Watching senseless television~

What activities makes me feel like I'm on fire? Going out to run!

When is the best time to wake up for me? Usually 5am

When am I most productive? early morning or late night

How long my waking up process should be before I start tackling work? I am ready pretty quick!

In the morning  3 questions I ask myself every day.  Two of them are in the morning while lying there in bed with barely opened eyes.  The other is one I keep asking myself over and over again during the day for the purpose of checking in with and staying aware of myself.
So, here are the questions and why they are important to ask.
Q1. What do I want to get done today?
Asking this question does 2 things.  I creates an intentional path and it brings focus to my day.  It makes me directly responsible for what I create in my day and… I can create anything I want.  I am without excuse at the end of the day because the day was of my choosing.
This is also the only time of day when nothing will try to take control of it.  It is just you and your thoughts.  So, make what you want of it.  It is in your total control.
Q2. How am I going to get it done?
This is the part when your eyes are just beginning to work.  If you don’t have a pen and paper… or a journal next to your bed, you might want to start.  Keep your phone somewhere else because as great of an organizer it is, it is also too great a potential distraction.
Write down what you are going to do and how you will get it done.  Writing brings our thoughts and all that is virtual into the real world.  I am not going to go into all that the brain researchers have to say about that but… when you write something down it engages you more fully with it.  And we need to be focused and as fully engaged as possible with our days.  So write down just what you are going to get done and how you are going to get it done on some paper or in your journal.  Carry it with you throughout the day to keep you focused and on track because things will always come up to get you sidetracked.
Q3. What do I need right now?
This is the question you keep asking yourself all day long and relates to keeping our energy levels up throughout the day.
LOOK… our days are truly unpredictable.  That is why we set our intention for our activity and tasks at the beginning of the day while we are still seemingly in control.  But as we move thru our day things come up which wear us out, destabilize our focus and slow us down.
To stay at our optimal performance we need to be constantly checking in with ourselves and asking ourselves what it is that we need.  It may be something as simple as a glass of water or a bite to eat.

I mean, how many times have we missed a meal and pushed thru a project because we just forgot to eat when eating something would have made us sharper and more productive as our day progressed?  Maybe we need a nap to get back up to peak performance or just to sit down and read something light.
There will be times when we will be ablaze with energy, creative thought and hyper-productivity all day without a break and other days when we will hit the ground dragging.
Whatever it is, we need to be constantly checking in with ourselves, checking in with our body, mind and emotion to see what it needs to keep us running at peak performance.  We are Ferraris and not Fords.  We need to be in tune with what is happening with our body, mind and emotion all day long to keep running at our peak.
At the end of the day, throw away that piece of paper.  The day is over, you did your best and that is all we can expect of ourselves.  Tomorrow will be another, very different day because that is what we will create for it.
I have found for me that making this a daily practice has given me more focus and kept me flowing more efficiently thru my day and it is my with that, if you adopt this practice, it will do the same for you.

My morning routine starts off every day with an internal struggle where I decide how badly I want to wake up "early" to begin my morning workout routine or "snooze" and get some extra sleep. After my workout, I get showered and dressed and head off to work. My trip to work includes grabbing a coffee on my way out the door and the first thing I do before I start working is grab some water and catch up on any personal matters that I was unable to complete the prior day, or came up overnight. Then I get cracking at work!

Lately I have been good and going for my morning run, doing some stretching, and starting my day "early". I'm trying to make this daily effort into a true routine where it becomes automatic. Since I don't think it's necessary to run every day, I will have to figure out the right mix of morning exercises to perform so I continue to go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day.

I am far from a morning person, so keeping a routine is crucial to being successful in my morning efforts!

great post, I love the positive vibe.

Yeah iam agree with you. I think morning is good time for coffee. Cause our brain has recharge and need some triggers from coffee to make our feeling good. :)

Every morning is different for me :) this is bad from one point of view and kind of interesting from another.  Why is it different? Because my body and brain totally rely on several things : 
- amount of sleep ( also depends whether the sleep was ongoing or I was waking up from time to time) 
- how I was feeling before going to sleep ( very often it  results into the quality of the sleep) 
- whether my day is planned.
So if I had 8-9 hours of sleep, I went to sleep not too late, not hungry and not sick and in the morning I will have a plan of the day - I am sure I will have a very productive morning.  However, letš presume if I got upset in the evening and was thinking about it for half of the night, as result I was sleeping like 4-5 hours, nothing will help me in the morning I will be totally broken and only coffee might help me with a time. 
So yea every morning depends on many aspects, some of the can be controlled like time to go to sleep, proper eating etc, and some of them cannot - like emotional things. 
Why I find it interesting?  Because every morning is different :) and sometimes it is even exciting to see myself fighting to make it more efficient.

Every morning begins a new day.
And I try every day make photos.

morning is most important time of day, 
usually i start waking up and taking shower in shower im thinking of what i will do in this day  so some sort of planning, after that breakfast- breakfast is most important part of morning because if you have healthy breakfast you will have energy for all your day, second part of breakfast is spend time with family , many forget this part, but its very important!  I think  this routine help me to be happy and efficient :)

What I love about mornings is about the feeling of being grateful since our God had given us another day to spend with our loved ones. Also, our morning moods often define how our day will be spent.

A short thank you prayer before freshening up is what makes my day. A healthy breakfast takes me through phase one of the day. Thanks for asking:)
