Success or failure does not happen overnight. The event itself happens overnight or in a matter of second. Every step counts. Every action counts. A person cannot suddenly become smarter, stronger, … It is a journey accumulating every day.
I started to tweak my habits, routines to accumulate small victories everyday. For the last 4 months, I have decided to wake up every day at 5AM and started training (mostly running) with MAF method. The important part is EVERY DAY. I removed the concept of WEEKENDs completely from my mind. Since then, my mind is free from struggling with the weekends.
Regardless of what will show up in the day, I have archived a few small wins already.
By being disciplined to wake up and train at 5AM, it is a huge win (not small at all).
By exercising with MAF method, my energy is high, I feel good, my body is stronger and stronger, I am READY to experience the day. Every day is a gift.
Here is a brief of my morning routine
- Wake up at 5AM
- Brush my teeth, face, … sanity, prepare my coffee till 5:20AM
- Shoes on and start exercising
- For the first 10 minutes in the warm-up, I practice English with ELSA app
- Run for an hour
- Back home, meditate for 5-10 minutes
- Clean my house. So my family wakes up with a clean, shining floor
- Prepare the day
Some days I missed, but just a few.
