What is your Daily Ritual?

I know that people who are successful in life follow a ritual that is different from average people. They follow a certain blueprint that serves as an ingredient for their success.

For me I'm still working on a ritual that helps me to achieve my short and long term goals. Some of them include

  • Keep myself hydrated at all times so I drink around 12-14 glasses of water
  • Review my goals of the day
  • I start my day with positive affirmations followed by motivation
  • One hour of the day is dedicated for reading a book
  • 2 hours of the day are dedicated for time on forums like Reddit and Indi Hackers

What is your daily ritual?

  1. 1

    Wake up at 4am
    Empty inbox

    Around 4:45 Drink pre workout while reading
    Workout
    Do dishes
    Drink breakfast shake while reading

    That's weekdays. Weekends most of the morning routine is the same but the rest of the day is activities with my wife/dogs or study.

      Really impressive Shawn. I'm personally struggling to get up early and that's one thing I want to work on. How do you manage to get up early?

      1. 2

        I use to be a late sleeper but honestly I just started setting my alarm a little earlier at a time. I did 5 for about a year before moving to 4. If you're consistent with it you get tired at the right time and it gets easier. I'll also have a nap after lunch on occasion if I feel a bit tired.

      Very impressive Marvin. Does following this routine helps your productivity? Also what time do you wake up?

      1. 1

        I wake up at about 7:30am
        Yes, the checklist is a must.

    How do you review your goals of the day?
    And how do you track them?
    Thank you for the post!

    1. 2

      I review my goals at the start of the day before starting the work to know exactly what tasks are important to accomplish.

      For Tracking I use multiple tools like Google Calender, Todolist, Clockify and Trello. They are really helpful for me to check if I'm on the right track or not
