How Titans of Industry Start Their Days

The way you begin each day sets up the way you live each day. I mean, the Spartan warriors said it so well, “Sweat more in training, bleed less in war.” And if you want to be literally undefeatable in business, literally unstoppable in life, you really want to dial in your morning routine. And so you want to do things like starting the day sweating because that releases BDNF, brain derived neurotrophic factor, that repairs brain cells from stress. You want to sweat because that’s going to increase your metabolic rate, which is going to give you energy. And we live in a world where energy is even more valuable than intelligence. You want to in your morning routine, take the time to write in a journal. So you actually can detect your values, reconnect with your goals each day, get to know yourself even more, because
awareness is the beginning of transformation and you want to get your morning routine right, so you take some time at the front end of your day to learn, because as you learn more, you
know you’re going to achieve more. And as you understand better, you can achieve larger.
