MAIN IDEA
One very effective way to achieve more in life and in business is to establish a morning ritual which helps you be productive and engaged right from the get-go every day.
This is something many high achievers are already doing. They don't leave their mindset or their overall general attitude to chance or to the vagaries of morning television. Instead, they get their workday off on the right foot every day by harnessing a good morning success ritual.
Mornings are the key to success. If you can get into the habit of rising early, connecting to your goals and then actively visualizing what you want to make happen, you'll end up winning more, feeling better and strategically engineering your life for success.
"If you want to take your SALES to the next level, you must first figure out how to take your SELF to the next level – because it only happens in that order. I believe that to be truly successful in whatever way you measure success, you must master both your inner game and the outer game of sales. And that starts in the morning. When you own the morning, you own the day. When you own the day, you can own the sales process." – Hal Elrod
"How you start each morning sets your mindset, and the context, for the rest of your day. Start every day with a purposeful, disciplined, growth-infused, and goal-oriented morning, and you're virtually guaranteed to crush your day." – Hal Elrod, Ryan Snow and Honoree Calder
