[QUOTE="Statsi, post: 397723, member: 3524"] I adopted a very solid routine in the morning, beginning by ensuring you're getting enough sleep by getting to bed at a reasonable time, or napping on days I'm intending on heading out. find your own way of making sure you don't hit snooze and get up early, preferably a couple of hours prior to when you need to be some place(work, college, whatever), be it visualizing your morning before sleeping like Roosh, or moving your alarm far enough away that you have to physically get up to switch it off. My morning routine goes water, cardio while listening to a language program, food while reading notes/memorizing something, supplements and vitamins, stretching and mobility exercises while thinking about whatever I've memorized, then bathroom for shower/teeth brushed/getting pretty. This is a solid routine that takes around an hour and sets you up to be productive that day. The next step to to tackle the most pressing task of the day, I run an omni-focus system where I write down everything I need to get done, however there are apps and such to have a more modern to do list. Pick the task that you're least likely to do and do it, some production guys call this 'swallowing your bull frog'- the goal is to do the hardest task of the day first. Habits and routines are way more effective than randomly taking care of business. If something takes longer than an hour it should really be a project rather than a task. Assign spare days to take care of projects. I mapped out the 5(now six) areas of my life that mattered most to me, expanding on each area in my journal. They are body, mind, skills, social, and finance, I later added romance when it didn't feel right to have game under skills/social. Then I wrote the 5 things I spend most of my time doing, facebook, tv, clubbing, swing dancing, and working. If you aren't spending most of your time working on the areas that are most important, then by definition you aren't being effective. Every day I choose to do activities/habits that help me in my chosen areas. Be it habits like Roosh's one approach a day, or hobbies like swing dancing, hitting the gym, and going clubbing. Later on you can expand this idea by ridding yourself of everything that harms your development in your chosen areas, so improving your diet, cutting out tv, not wasting money on consumption, and drinking less. You currently have an initial rush of inspiration, use it to push yourself into choosing to be productive. [/QUOTE]
