One of the people who have influenced me most is Robin Sharma. Not because is great speaker or he is Indian. The reason is ........... simple. Yes, the solution he provides are simple, clear and very easy to understand and follow.
Just read the following :
Leaders get that the real fight is the fight against time. So much to achieve/innovate and influence. And so few hours in a day. The solution? Get up uber-early. That way you have your day - versus your day having you.
I was up early this am. One of the gifts I give myself. As I mentioned on Twitter, I spent time reviewing my Core Values. And building out a template for an "on game" day.
I thought it might be helpful to you if I shared what I do to help me get up between 4 and 5 am on most days (aside from travel days):
1. I try to workout daily. This dramatically drives energy levels. You'll feel more inspired. And you'll need less sleep.
2. A massage each week. This isn't an expense - it's an investment in your full creative expression/productivity/passion and sustained excellent health. And you'll find you need far less sleep.
3. Do your Holy Hour. If you've read The Greatness Guide , you know about this key leadership practice. Take 60 minutes from 5-6 am and get inspired. Read superb books. Write about your hopes, goals and dreams within your journal. Say your mantras. Hit the gym. You'll start feeling so good/energetic, getting up early will be effortless.
4. Meditation. I just find that 30 minutes of meditation in the morning clears out my mind. And with less worry and more clarity, I sleep more deeply. So I need less.
5. Remember The 40 Day Rule. Any new practice will feel foreign/stressful/hard for the first 40 days as you repattern. Stick with the 5 am rise. Have the courage and persistence to get this habit installed. After 40 days, you'll have a new protocol in place that - I promise you - will boost your leadership and pour far more passion/success/happiness into every area of your life.
