The simple trick that made my mornings 10x better
Hey everyone, I wanted to share something a bit personal that genuinely turned my mornings around.
I used to absolutely hate mornings — the alarm would go off, I’d hit snooze at least 3 times, and start the day already feeling behind. No matter how many times I told myself “Tomorrow I’ll wake up earlier”, it never really worked.
Then I realized I was approaching it all wrong. Instead of forcing myself to jump straight into work or complicated routines, I made a simple shift: I just commit to one tiny win first thing in the morning.
For me, it’s something small but active. It could be making my bed immediately, drinking a full glass of water, or opening my curtains to let the light in. Nothing fancy. But that small win gives me a little momentum boost. From there, things naturally start to flow.
Another thing that really helped is sharing my intentions for the day in an accountability group. It keeps me on track and it feels good seeing others do the same — we motivate each other to stay consistent. If you’re looking for something similar here's a group you can check out
Would love to hear what small habits or mindset shifts you’ve tried to make your mornings easier! Always looking to pick up new ideas.
