My Morning Routine

How Successful People Start Every Day Inspired




From the authors of popular blog mymorningroutine.com, a comprehensive guide to waking up inspired every day

In My Morning Routine, talented creatives and successful business people share their secrets to unlocking greater energy, focus and calm - starting first thing in the morning. For example, Arianna Huffington describes how she silences the 'bad roommate' of self-doubt every morning; Google's M.G. Siegler reveals why he religiously drinks bottled Starbucks Frappucinos; and a former Navy SEAL lieutenant explains why his morning workout routine changes each season.

From sleep patterns and dietary preferences to electronics use, workout rituals and more leisurely and self-indulgent habits, Benjamin Spall and Michael Xander present readers with a wide range of possible practices to choose from, inspiring you to wake up alert, physically and mentally healthy and psyched up to have a great day.

Praise for My Morning Routine

After a productive morning in which I accomplish my big things, the rest of the day can be played by ear. It's all extra from there

RYAN HOLIDAY, author of The Obstacle Is the Way

A big part of my morning routine is about what I don't do: when I wake up, I don't start the day by looking at my phone

ARIANNA HUFFINGTON, founder of the Huffington Post and Thrive Global

The quiet time between 6:00 and 7:30 A.M. is when some of my best work gets done. It's my time to read, think, and prepare for the day ahead

BILL McNABB, chairman of the Vanguard Group

If I don't get a chance to play with my son in the morning I feel like I missed something that I'll never get back

BIZ STONE, cofounder of Twitter

I travel a lot for work, so my days are always different. Having a morning routine really means tting things in around everything else

CAMERON RUSSELL, fashion model and cultural activist

Find certain things you know you should do, don't like to do, or make excuses to avoid, and then do them every day

STANLEY McCHRYSTAL, retired U.S. Army four-star general
