1 Secret A.M. Rule of Arnold Schwarzenegger to Elevate Your Mornings (I’ve Been Using It For Years)
How to own your entire day
“The morning is the wisest time of the day.” — Seneca
In the quiet hours of the day, before the world truly awakes, the most productive people have one thing on their minds: getting things done.
But how do you practically get real stuff done?
Some people start the day with meticulous planning, charting schedules and to-do lists. Others, like the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger, advocate for a different path. A morning without setting priorities.
Last year, I wrote about why the first hour of your day is the key to owning your day.
I wrote:
The first half of the day is a golden opportunity to get almost all your high-value work done. Your most precious and productive hours are the first fours hours — it’s the time we are focused and full of energy.
It pays to block off time for your most important work in the morning.
I do all my writing in the morning. I feel more refreshed and alert in the morning, so I’ve scheduled to write my Medium posts before noon.
