Productive morning is when you produce something, and to produce something you simply have to do your job, right?
So I would say that my morning is
1. Brush teeth (2 min)
2. Coffee + Cigarette (5 min) +3 min extra :)
3. Go through emails (3 min)
4. Go through messages (3 min)
5. Open the laptop and start working
So in total, it takes 15-20 since awakening to start working.
Doing that exactly this for the last couple of years, and works great for me.

Exercising – it is like boosting my whole day. When I have it I know that I am prepared to move on all day through the tasks.

@vimal_kumar_rai Morning exercise for flexibility, yoga or light pilats. Actually... I train my core :D
I always spend a few minutes planning out my top 3 priorities. It keeps me on track and makes the morning more productive!

@idowbmarc Thank you for sharing!! Would you like to share how you set your priorities?
45 min swim followed by 45 mins of running
Exercise first thing, always.
Not even a full workout sometimes, just stretching or a short run, but it energizes me.

@ameliamiller Are you into swimming too?
For me, it’s all about a slow start.
I take 5 minutes with my coffee to just breathe and think about what I want to achieve today.
Slows me down, but weirdly helps me stay productive throughout.
Seeing 5 missed calls from my boss in the morning, at about 11-11:30 am is a game changer. Especially when the deadlines are burning 🔥
Definitely planning - I can't start the working day without it :)
Praying does it for me. While I do my morning routine I say the Jesus prayer
@tanya_unapod That's a bright idea! I haven't gotten the chance to try listening to a personalised summary podcast, I'll definitely keep an eye out when you're launching! 😉
@tanya_unapod Looks nice!!! 🤩 If you can please also support our product launching soon, highly appreciate it!!! https://www.producthunt.com/prod... 🚀
5minutes yoga to refresh mind 🥰
Jogging or walking most of the time.
A brisk walk with tea/coffee in hand.

@nifal_adam2 That's nice... BTW what do you prefer more... A cup full of tea or coffee?
Having a mental plan of how the day should look like.
