Synopsis

Today's most talented creatives and businesspeople share their secrets to unlocking greater energy, focus, and calm--starting first thing in the morning.

Most of us mindlessly drift from bed to phone to fridge to work. Yet the choices we make during the first few hours of our day have an outsized effect on everything else. Recall Charles' Duhigg's theory of habit stacking: we form habits by stacking actions on top of each other. Whether we like it or not, our morning habits form the stack that our whole day is built on.

From sleep patterns and dietary preferences to electronics use and workout rituals, Benjamin Spall and Michael Xander present readers with a wide range of possible practices to choose from. Some routines are all about early-morning exercise and Spartan living; others are more leisurely and self-indulgent. For instance, Spall and Xander spoke to Arianna Huffington about how she silences the "bad roommate" of self-doubt every morning; to Google's M.G. Siegler on why he religiously drinks bottled Starbucks Frappucinos; and to a former Navy SEAL Lieutenant on why his morning workout routine changes each season.

The point is not that there's one right way to start your day. The idea is to experiment until you've formed a morning routine that works for you--one that makes you feel awake, alert, physically and mentally healthy, and psyched up to have a great day.

Highlighted interviewees include Marie Kondo, General Stanley McChrystal, Jillian Michaels, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, three-time Olympic gold medalist Rebecca Soni, Dilbert creator Scott Adams, Ana Marie Cox, Tyler Cowen, Cal Newport, MIT President L. Rafael Reif, and the President of Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios Ed Catmull.

Synopsis

How are you spending your most valuable hours? The first few choices you make every morning can unlock greater productivity, creativity, and calm--or bring out your worst self.

Marie Kondo performs a quick tidying ritual to quiet her mind before leaving the house. The President of Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios, Ed Catmull, mixes three shots of espresso with three scoops of cocoa powder and two sweeteners. Fitness expert Jillian Michaels doesn't set an alarm, because her five-year-old jolts her from her slumber by jumping into bed for a cuddle every morning.

Part instruction manual, part someone-else's diary, My Morning Routine interviews 64 of today's most successful people--including three-time Olympic gold medalist Rebecca Soni, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, and General Stanley McChrystal--and offers advice on creating a routine of your own.

Some routines are all about early-morning exercise and Spartan living; others are more leisurely and self-indulgent. What they have in common is they don't feel like a chore. Once you land on the right routine, you'll look forward to waking up.

This comprehensive guide will show you how to get into a routine that works for you so that you can develop the habits that move you forward. Much like a Jenga stack is only as sturdy as its foundational blocks, the choices we make throughout our day depend on the intentions we set in the morning. Whether we like it or not, our morning habits form the stack that our whole day is built on.

Whether you want to boost your productivity, implement a workout or meditation routine, or learn to roll with the punches in the morning, this book has you covered.
