EP 42: My Morning Routine

“We don't have great days,” says host Corinne Morahan, “we make great days.” The best way to set yourself up for a great day–which in turn leads to a series of great days, positive forward momentum and upward spirals versus downward spirals–is to optimize your morning routine. Today, Corinne will show you how to do just that by sharing how she spends her own mornings—from workouts to her beauty routine, to quality time with her husband and kids, division of household labor and work-at-home days vs. office days–while encouraging you, as always, to make the routine your own. 

 

Learn how you can find your own fit, what works best for you and what doesn’t, and how to find the pleasure pockets that make even the hard parts enjoyable–or at least bearable. You'll learn why a strong morning routine really starts the night before, the technique Corinne employs that is used by top athletes, speakers and CEOs, and the one thing you can do every morning that will literally change your life.

 

Each new day brings with it the opportunity to be great. Join today's episode to learn how to get started. 

 

Quotes

• “It’s not about discipline. It is really just about a shift in our mindset around what we have control over—and of course what we don’t—and the choices that we’re going to make to create a day that really works for us. I choose a strong morning routine, so that I can choose to have more great days.” (2:51 | Corinne Morahan)
• “The way the upward spiral works is that you’ve started your day off already having so many little wins that even if something goes unplanned or something bad happens, you think, ‘OK, this day is not a total loss because I already have some wins,’ but also, you’ve got this positive momentum that makes it easier to brush some of that off and get back on track for having a positive day.” (4:40 | Corinne Morahan)
• “I already know what is happening that day—that’s all happened the night before, so that by the time I get up in the morning, I’ve almost walked through the morning in my head the night before because I know what’s going to happen. And that visualization technique is a technique that all great athletes use, great CEOs use, speakers before they go on stages—and it works for your day, also.” (5:51 | Corinne Morahan)
• “Find the little things. Find the pleasure pockets so that you can make these things enjoyable.” (16:00 | Corinne Morahan)
