Morning Routine: Daily Accountability

Does the day seem to get away from you? If so, consider creating a morning routine. This simple habit can be very helpful over time. Winning the morning and creating a purposeful outline for your day will improve your productivity.

Habits are difficult to create but over time your daily wins will lead to success. Success is a product of your daily habits- things you don’t have to think about doing.

Creating a system or a morning routine will help you accomplish more throughout the day. A routine will build structure and consistency in your life. We are creatures of habit. Focus on completing it one day at a time.

I created a goal setting template that takes a few minutes in the morning. At first, I was hesitant and not consistent using it. When you put pen to paper- you have a purpose for the day. Know what you need to do- forget a to do list. The goal is executing. Holding yourself accountable or finding an accountability partner is crucial.

The most difficult part about a routine is staying consistent. Using a whiteboard where you can keep your goals in check will keep your attention on your goals. If you always see your goals- you will time block activities that lead you towards your goals.

It is also very important to time block. A to do list will rarely get done. Weekly, write down what needs to get done. Next estimate how long this task will take. Finally you can begin to structure your days and week based on your needs. A weekly review of your time will hold yourself accountable and you can see why you were successful as well as why you did not make progress during the week.
