    Wake up early, stick to the plan. At work I try to start with planned tasks, but sometimes I tackle less urgent ones when I feel the flow and know it will be i.e. inspiring.

    @w_j sticking to the plan is crucial, its difficult when time gets low and schedules are packed, but if you can, its the secret sauce

    I started waking up earlier (before 7) to get the non-work related tasks out of the way so I can be ready to tackle my day at 8

    @jennifer00 great point, its about clearing your plate of self-care tasks such that you can devote full focus to the work portion of the day

    @jennifer00 getting up early allows you to be more thorough through the self-care instead of it having to be a rush job

    I write my morning routine on a sticky note that hangs above my workspace. So when I wake up I have to do everything on it. And I have a separate sticky note where I mark every time I do the routine. So I look at my morning routine as a habit and I track it on a separate sticky note. I figured I'm addicted to streaks on PH and Snapchat so I'm streaking my habits.

    @luka_vasic Wow I never realized that. Streak building is a hack, gamifies the habit and then its about keeping your "points" increasing, no matter what. Thank you so much for sharing Luka

    Concentrating on the task at hand. I try not to think about anything else.

    @tony_brooks1 Focus makes it all easier. Im finding you have to be a bit ruthless to yourself in the mornings to stay on the edge
