The best way to start your day is by putting yourself into the right mindset.

I am a big believer in forming daily habits, and these ritualistic methods will help solidify your foundation so that you can adapt and grow. Here are 2 of the habits that I have formed which I think will help you start your day with the right mindset.

  • Start with gratitude. Set your actions. Positive self-talk. Yup, these are the five-minute journal. Seriously, they built the journal on solid principles and starting the day with Gratitude and leading into Action has helped me have the right mindset. I don’t use the physical journal. I use Day One with a text expansion that fills in the basic template.
  • Daily Plan. I mentioned in my previous post that I am using the time blocking method, so after finishing my 5-minute journal I go straight to my time blocking to
    1. Dump ideas - I write down everything flowing through my mind. This process gets it out of my mind, so I can process it later.
    2. See the plan or plan out my day - I prefer to plan my blocks the night before, but you know, it usually happens in the morning. I spend time planning out where I will take time to do something.

The best way to start your day is by putting yourself into the right mindset.
