Work More to Get More Done

ByJohn AI

Summary

  • I've got a morning routine that includes a grounded walk, gratitude journaling, planning my day, envisioning my future with a vision board, and an ice plunge, which might sound impressive, but it's a lot.
  • This routine takes about three hours each morning, and to be honest, it can leave me feeling drained before I even start my workday.
  • I decided to make a change and slash this extended routine, substituting it with three solid hours of focused work instead.
  • The result was a game-changer; just by redirecting the time from routine to work, I found my productivity skyrocketed.
  • If you find yourself swamped in a morning ritual that's eating up your prime hours, consider simplifying it. Direct work can often lead to better results than elaborate routines.
  • It's a straightforward concept: more hours of work lead to more getting done, so don't overcomplicate what can be simplified for efficiency.

How To Take Action

A good way of doing things is to start small but think big. If you're like me and you've got a long morning routine that's wearing you out, try this: cut it down. Instead of spending three hours on a walk, journaling, and other stuff, why not swap that time for three solid hours of work?

Let's keep it simple. Here are steps you could take:

  • Trim Your Morning Routine: Look at what you do every morning. Pick out the things that really give you a boost and stick to them. Can a walk be just 10 minutes? Can you write down one thing you're grateful for instead of a whole page?

  • Plan Your Day, But Fast: Use just five minutes to decide what you'll focus on. What's the biggest thing you need to do? Put that first on your list.

  • Focus on Work Hours: You’ve got three hours slashed from your routine, right? Use that time to dive into work. Go for the hard tasks first.

  • Check Your Energy: After a week, see how you feel. Are you getting more done? Are you feeling less tired?

Here's the thing: more work hours mean more work done. Don't get caught up in a fancy morning routine if it's not helping you win your day. Simplify where you can and put those hours where they’ll count the most—at your work.

Remember to adapt this to fit your life. Maybe start by cutting your routine by just one hour and see how that helps. The key is to find a balance where you’re ready for the day but not drained before you start.
