5 Morning Rituals To Help You Win The Day

Starting your morning with these 5 simple tools from Tim Ferris will set you up for the day and get your creative juices flowing. These rituals will facilitate your productivity and happy mood, so try incorporate these now and see what a difference it makes.

You wake up….now what?

Make Your Bed

“If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day.  According to Tim.“It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another. By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that little things in life matter.”

Meditate

Add some mindfulness practice to your morning to calm your mind and be present.

Do 5-10 Reps Of Something

The 5 to 10 reps of whatever you choose, are not a workout. They are intended to “state prime” and wake you up. Getting into your body, even for 30 seconds, has a dramatic effect on your mood and quiets all of that monkey brain mental chatter. Tim Ferris’ preferred exercise is push-ups, as it nicely lights up the nervous system.

Make Tea

Add some coconut oil in there for a metabolism boost.
