The Morning Ritual Habit for 2022

Many experts claim the morning ritual habit is one of the most important habits everyone should practice.

This is because research has shown that a shocking 90% of successful individuals actually have a morning ritual habit. CEOs of big companies such as Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, PepsiCo CEO Ramon Laguarta, and high-powered politicians like Margaret Thatcher wake up very early in the morning to do their rituals before heading off to work.

For night owls like me, adapting to this lifestyle and changing habits would probably be tremendously difficult at first.

• Try adapting slowly.
• Sleep 15 minutes earlier each night to wake up 15 minutes earlier as well.
• Do this cycle until you get used to sleeping in early and waking up early too.

With that said, let us look at three-morning rituals you should imbibe.

1.?Pray, Study, and Meditate

Waking up early in the morning when everything’s quiet is great for meditating, praying, or reading inspiring books and quotes.

During this special time, turn off your gadgets and focus on renewing your mind.

This is your personal time so feel free to update your journal, write down your thoughts, and plan your entire day.

Doing this helps you get your mind and body ready for the day ahead.

You can even identify your two most important tasks for the day and try to get them done first thing in the morning so that by afternoon you are free to do less important tasks.

2.?Exercise

Another important activity you can squeeze in during your morning ritual is exercising.

It clears your head and running on a treadmill for even just 5 -10 minutes will reduce stress and help boost your metabolism.

3.?Prepare your meals

Another morning ritual is to prepare your food for the whole day, right up to dinner.

I’m not against eating out from time to time but it’s so much better and healthier to prepare your food at home especially if you’re counting calories.

Eating out is like a calorie-fest where you get twice, thrice or even 5 times the normal calories you get from cooking your own food.

Conclusion

Implementing the morning ritual habit is recommended by time management and behavior experts.

Yes, it will be difficult but this is why you work on developing one habit at a time. Developing positive habits is very important for your success.

Do this process slowly over a period of weeks.

In a month or so you should be seeing some progress and you’d then be more productive and you’ll have a clearer path to reaching your goals.
