It's hard to be successful when you're always running around like a chicken with its head cut off. You know that you'd be more productive and less stressed if you could just get your mornings under control.
In 2019, my husband served a year deployment, our twin boys were 1.5 years old, and I led a team for a Fortune 500 company with 60% overnight travel. Creating a morning routine was the first step for me to create balance in my life, allowing me to be present at work and with my kids.
The first hour of the day sets the tone for the entire day. An optimal morning routine can create a positive trajectory for a successful, effective, productive, and efficient day. The five-morning routine habits of highly successful people are the key to getting your day started on the right foot. Implement these simple tips into your morning routine and watch as your productivity skyrockets.
Here are five-morning routine habits of highly successful people.
Avoid the Snooze Button: Research shows that when you sleep and nap after your alarm increases tiredness and makes you feel drowsy. Going back to bed to sleep even for 10 minutes can confuse your body. Instead of hitting snooze, sit up in your bed for 10 minutes and give your body time to wake up. If you have trouble keeping your eyes awake, scan your room or focus on a particular object.
Make Your Bed: US Retired Navy Admiral William H McRaven wrote the book “Make Your Bed.” His book talks about the simple task that starts your morning with a sense of accomplishment, reduces stress, develops good habits, and creates a retreat when you return home, making your bed.

Drink Water: Drinking water ensures optimal digestion and increases metabolism. Water supports your body to flush out toxins first thing in the morning. Your brain is 75% water. When your brain is not adequately hydrated, your brain operates on less fuel. Optimal daily water intake is half your body weight in ounces of water.
Daily Affirmations and Gratitude: We all know that our thoughts have a lot of power, but sometimes it's hard to keep our thoughts positive. Negativity can be incredibly draining, and it's tough to break free from negative thought patterns. Daily affirmations can help change your mindset and empower you to achieve your dreams. Start your morning with positive self-talk that will motivate you to act, increase concentration throughout the day, change negative thought patterns, and boost self-confidence. Tell yourself five positive affirmations and five things you are grateful for in your life. Write your affirmations on paper and hang them in an area you see every day, or write them on your bathroom mirror with a dry erase marker. One of my favorite apps for daily affirmations is "I AM." https://apps.apple.com/us/app/i-am-daily-affirmations/id874656917
Move Your Body: Even 15 minutes of daily exercise will reduce stress, improve sleep, and increase energy and clarity throughout the day. Get your body moving!
It can be hard at times when you don’t know how to create a good habit. Most people want to create good habits, but they often don’t know where to start. It takes between on average 45–60 days to create a habit. If you want to incorporate exercise into your morning routine, then set specific dates each week to exercise and block out time on your schedule. Then reward yourself when you achieve certain milestones.
Doing something consistently “day in and day out” can be hard. Sometimes you may slip from time to time and it's essential during these times to give yourself grace. Instead of saying phrases such as “I need to,” “I should have,” and “I have to,” shift your mind from obligation to opportunity and incorporate phrases such as “I get to” and “I chose to.” Then remind yourself whom you get to be when you get back on track with your morning routine. When I wake up unmotivated to work out, I remind myself that I have more energy when I work and when I have more energy, I am more effective throughout my day. You can also start your morning with a podcast, TEDx Talk, or motivational video to give me a quick boost of inspiration and motivation.

Got an event coming up and want to give your team a quick boost of motivation?
Here are two of my signature talks on beating burn-out.
Burnt-Out to Fired Up: Creating a Culture of Balance and Connection Burn-out is real! Employees are stressed, overwhelmed, and unsure about how to balance work, home life, and the uncertainty of the future. This leads to focusing difficulties, negative thoughts about their job, and a drop in productivity. Unhappy employees can spread negativity to coworkers, influence your company culture and increase turnover. In this keynote, employees are equipped with the tools to create balance in all areas of their life. Employees will exchange feelings of burnout for fired-up and equipped with the tools to create balance in their life.
The Professional Woman: Out with the Guilt & Burn-Out, in with the Balance and Abundance. Women are constantly feeling rushed and exhausted. With a focus on doing, women have trouble focusing without guilt while at work. While at home, they deal with lingering work on their mind. The result is negative self-talk and a lack of connection in all areas of their life. In this keynote, women learn how to unleash patterns and transform the limited relationship self-worth into a space of confidence, self-love, and self-care. Danielle takes’ women step-by-step on how to exchange feelings of burn-out and guilt to create a balanced and abundant life.
