    149: Do the 5 am people make you feel bad?

    #149: Do the 5 am people make you feel bad?Have you ever listened to the people who are part of the “5 o’clock club”, and they talk about jumping out of bed, feeling chipper, and being ready to go?I was one of them once, and I realized I was making myself feel bad. If you are ready to stop trying to be one of those people, if you are ready to start trusting yourself, if you are ready to BE in charge of your own life & time, listen to this today. In this episode: Is there a good time and could it be beneficial to have a routine? Does having a routine mean you are taking care of yourself or is it a crutch? Why being stringent with your routines may backfire. What is important to tackle, track, or do in the morning, or for any routine for that matter? What if you are disorganized, procrastinate, and just can’t get shit done, isn’t a routine good for you? Do routines have to last forever and when can you be free to trust yourself according to the new seasons in your life? My Sunday night Royal Treatment Routine, my business batching routines and my do-nothing routine.   What do you say? Share in a comment to me, what’s your biggest hang-up with routines? Do you love them or hate them?
