5-min Morning routine
A synergistic trio:
Goal setting, Motivation & Emotional Health
Morning journaling to prime your mind, based on an episode by Andrew Huberman. (One word answers are totally acceptable.)
Gratitude: Start by listing 5 things you're grateful for, big or small. It could be anything from a warm cup of coffee to a supportive friend to the vibrant sunrise. This sets the tone for a positive and appreciative outlook on the day.
Day Plans: Briefly outline your key goals and tasks for the day. This provides a sense of direction and purpose, preventing feeling overwhelmed or scattered.
Fears and Resentments: Acknowledge any worries or negative emotions bubbling beneath the surface. Writing them down helps you become aware of them and potentially address them head-on, preventing them from hindering your progress.
Potential Roadblocks: Consider any anticipated challenges or distractions that might come up. This proactive approach allows you to strategize or prepare mentally, making you more resilient in the face of obstacles.
Striving Points: Clearly define your aspirations for the day, beyond mundane tasks. They could be personal growth goals, creative pursuits, or acts of kindness you want to accomplish. This adds a sense of purpose and motivates you to push beyond routine.
These five journaling prompts, ideally done first thing in the morning, help cultivate a mindful and emotionally intelligent approach to your day. By starting with gratitude, setting intentions, acknowledging negativity, planning for challenges, and focusing on aspirations, you create a mental framework for success and well-being.
