Mornings can be enchanting times of hope, belief, optimism, and self-love. Or, they can be annoying, premature, and stiff.

If you have any desire at all to have a good day, then you need to get your thoughts, decisions, and actions aligned the minute you open your eyes.

To fire up the ol’ engine, it helps to create a mega morning routine during which you set positive and realistic intentions for the day, warm up your muscles, and make the bed.

You can do all this in any timeframe, doesn’t matter how long or short. The point is to set the tone for the day and empower yourself to take on the day’s challenges.
