๐ Revolutionary Morning Routine
๐ Hello friend
I have already tried many different Morning Routines.

Podcast Episode: My Productive Morning Routine
My current morning routine consists of the following acronym: I REV AM
๐ฆธโโ๏ธI: Identity (5 minutes)
This stands for the identity I am trying to become in 3 areas of my life: Health, Wealth & Relationships. I wrote about it in a past newsletter Peak Performance Program.
๐คR: Reading (20 minutes)
For reading I use my all time favourite reading app Shortform. I am currently getting deeper into the topic of relationships by reading No More Mr. Nice Guy By Robert Glover. Get a 20% discount on Shortform's annual subscription with the link shortform.com/neurohackingly.
๐ช๐ผE: Exercise (20 - 45 minutes)
I exercise for max. 45 minutes per day following the Bryan Johnson Longevity Workout Routine (selfmade google doc). I have seen some improvements in my posture which really excites me. ๐
๐ฎV: Visualize (5 minutes)
I visualize my day with the guided Best Possible Future Self Exercise on Youtube. This is where I go through my day and imagine what I want to accomplish today (written down in the Identity section above) and which challenges might come up and how I plan to react to them today.
๐ฃ๏ธA: Affirmations (5 minutes)
I currently have the habit of doing affirmations.
I don't just say "I am strong" or affirmations that I might not really believe myself. I first ask myself what kind of person I want to be, or what qualities and behaviors I need to possess in order to be able to master future situations. I then adapt my affirmations accordingly.
"[...] affirmations alone cannot change a person. However, Glover says they help reinforce productive habits and combat negative thoughts. [...] while listening to positive affirmations may help boost your mood, reading them may lead to unproductive self-reflection." - Shortform, No More Mr. Nice Guy, Robert Glover
๐งโโ๏ธM: Meditation (10 minutes)
10 Minutes Anapana Meditation.
Summary: My morning routine includes a short reflection exercise to put on my best identities, learning new things through reading, exercising, even if it's only briefly, visualizing my ideal day and finding stillness in meditation.
What does your morning routine look like?
Have a great week! ๐
