The worst way to start your day is by knuckling down and getting to work. Jumping right into your tasks out of habit, pressure, or guilt can work for while. Over time, though, you’ll drain your mental/physical/emotional batteries and burn out.
The best way to start your day is by
- Getting inspired by reading helpful blog posts, perhaps, and reconnecting to the “why” of your work,
- Running a daily refresh of your lists, and/or
- Doing one small thing to remember the greater you, get grounded, and feel good.
How did you start your day today?
To your continued success,

P.S. What’s the second worst way to start your day? Reading or listening to the news.
That’s wild, Mike. I always though there was something wrong with me for easing into work when ‘serious’ people seemed to knuckle down! Would any work session follow a similar pattern, albeit a shorter one most likely?
Mike I have been reading your blog daily, while starting my new role, I don’t profess to living by the rules 100% but try to adopt them and prevent the gremlins from getting in , they are so intelligent, simple a and logical.
My favorite by far is how can I make this feel different, it works every time and changes my mindset and posture, it’s good .
Thanks
