Morning Routine Project

I at least woke up earlier and better today, but I did not make the best use of my time in the morning. I am working on improving my morning routine to be more time efficient and generally less hectic. I also want time to relax for a bit, sip coffee, and write. And also squeeze in a quick workout: stretching push-ups and sit-ups. Perhaps too ambitious.

The success of the morning routine also entails proper prep at night and on the weekends. Having my clothes ready, breakfast, lunch, etc. I would like to be intentional and create a checklist to help automate the project and make it a habit.

My cell phone has also been a barrier, and I have committed to not sleeping with it next to me, not using it as an alarm, and not checking emails or anything else until I get to work. I was more successful with that today...but not at successful as I would like (not even close). Although I AM writing. And that is something.

I am feeling pretty serious about getting back to creative writing. I have some really great in-progress (albeit semi-abandoned stories) I would like to get back to.

But my new job and my sons starting kindergarten has kinda changes everything. I have to look closer at my goals, priorities, and values.

But a lot here will be contingent upon a successful morning routine. This is a project I need to address ASAP.

Excites and nervous about work today. I already feel things are backed up a little. I can really go a long way toward getting more organized and feeling on top of things today...a crucial day in that regard. I have to stay focused.
