Imitating successful people is the best and fastest way to improve your life. Below, I present to you the morning habits of successful people that everyone knows.
See what successful people’s morning looks like:
Arnold Schwarzenegger — a body-builder of all time, movie star, governor of California. His morning ritual is cardio training, or endurance training and waking up early. Arnold can still be seen riding a bicycle in Los Angeles. H waits with his strength training until evening. There is also reading and a healthy breakfast.
Morning habits: sport, getting up early, reading, healthy breakfast.
Barack Obama — the former US president has always started a day in the White House 2 hours before his planned tasks. This has always been associated with early waking up and physical exercises. Barack Obama drinks a lot of water, green tea and fruit juices in the morning (he doesn’t drink coffee). Reading adds up to his morning habits.
Morning habits: getting up early, exercise, hydration, reading.
Richard Branson — founder of Virgin Group, entrepreneur and billionaire. He loves to swim and surf in the morning, especially if he’s on his private island. He also likes playing tennis — only after a solid dose of sport does he eat a healthy breakfast.
Morning habits: exercise, healthy food.
Benjamin Franklin — one of the founding fathers of the United States. His morning habit was to get up very early. He planned his whole day, what important he wanted to do on that day. Benjamin asked himself a question every morning: “What do I want to do today?”
Morning habits: getting up early, setting targets and priorities.
Mark Zuckerberg — entrepreneur, founder of Facebook and one of the richest people in the world. He is known for dressing the same way every morning, which is why he makes less decisions and thus is more productive.
Morning habits: simplifying tasks.
Steve Jobs — Apple founder, visionary. Every morning Steve looked in the mirror and asked himself: “If this is the last day of my life, would I really do what I have to do today?”
Morning habits: setting targets and priorities.
Bill Gates — the founder of Microsoft, for years the richest man in the world, philanthropist. He starts his day with an hour of exercise on the treadmill and during these morning exercises he takes various courses to learn more.
Morning habits: exercise, reading and learning.
Morning HABITS of SUCCESSFUL people — CONCLUSIONS
The morning habits of successful people are primarily physical exercises, getting up early, reading and learning. I think we should all follow these morning habits. In addition, it is very common habits of successful people to set their own goals and focus on what is really important for achieving selected tasks and dreams. These small successes of everyday life make you a person ready to overcome the obstacles that stand in your way. Successful people know this very well, which is why their every morning is active. Thanks to this, they are ready for their challenges and motivated for the coming day. You can also use these simple habits to improve the quality of your life.

00:00:00,520 –> 00:00:04,343
What do people like Arnold
Schwarzenegger, Bill Gates,
2
00:00:04,344 –> 00:00:09,329
Mark Zuckerberg, Benjamin Franklin,
Barack Obama have in common?
3
00:00:09,330 –> 00:00:12,180
What allowed them to achieve success?
4
00:00:12,200 –> 00:00:17,814
Today I’ll tell you about morning routines
of these successful people.
5
00:00:17,815 –> 00:00:22,342
The ones that allow them
to achieve their goals, success
6
00:00:22,343 –> 00:00:25,860
and to be able to get through life easier.
7
00:00:25,880 –> 00:00:29,879
What these morning habits are?
I’ll tell you in a sec.
8
00:00:29,880 –> 00:00:33,529
Firstly – why are morning habits
so important?
9
00:00:33,530 –> 00:00:38,014
Because many of us turn off the alarm,
turns on snooze,
10
00:00:38,015 –> 00:00:42,143
eat unhealthy breakfast
and, right after waking up,
11
00:00:42,144 –> 00:00:45,457
involve in many tasks
which overwhelm us
12
00:00:45,458 –> 00:00:49,043
and we react on the things
that happen around us.
13
00:00:49,044 –> 00:00:54,729
We get up late, open phone,
read emails, have plenty of tasks to do,
14
00:00:54,730 –> 00:00:59,100
so we do them as quick as possible
to check them off.
15
00:00:59,101 –> 00:01:03,956
Morning habits are very important
as they allow you to put yourself
16
00:01:03,957 –> 00:01:07,239
in an active state, not a reactive one.
17
00:01:07,240 –> 00:01:13,728
Before you even get to the tasks,
which will surround you during the day
18
00:01:13,729 –> 00:01:21,639
and won’t allow you to do what you want,
by doing morning habits and rituals
19
00:01:21,640 –> 00:01:27,929
you’re able to focus on your goals,
important things, dreams
20
00:01:27,930 –> 00:01:34,740
and you can be active in life
and actively achieve your goals.
21
00:01:34,760 –> 00:01:38,660
So, how successful people do it?
22
00:01:38,680 –> 00:01:42,643
The world’s greatest people
who everyone knows.
23
00:01:42,644 –> 00:01:47,329
They surely have
their morning rituals, habits
24
00:01:47,330 –> 00:01:50,540
that allow them
to achieve such a success.
25
00:01:50,560 –> 00:01:56,119
I’ll enumerate several of those people
and their morning rituals.
26
00:01:56,120 –> 00:02:00,043
Let’s start with Barack Obama,
the former US President.
27
00:02:00,044 –> 00:02:03,057
A very interesting and cheerful character.
28
00:02:03,058 –> 00:02:08,170
Barack Obama would get up two hours
before the duties he had to perform.
29
00:02:08,200 –> 00:02:13,443
As you can guess, President of
the US has many responsibilities.
30
00:02:13,444 –> 00:02:18,014
Much more than family people
having two day jobs.
31
00:02:18,015 –> 00:02:24,057
He was able to get up two hours early
and then exercising for 45 minutes,
32
00:02:24,058 –> 00:02:30,100
shaping his body to be healthy,
as thanks to this and getting up early
33
00:02:30,120 –> 00:02:34,039
he was able to do
a lot more during the day.
34
00:02:34,040 –> 00:02:37,940
Despite the fact that
he got up early and exercised.
35
00:02:37,960 –> 00:02:42,186
Getting up early, exercising
and then Barack Obama
36
00:02:42,187 –> 00:02:47,519
drank a lot of water and fruit
juices – interestingly, not coffee.
37
00:02:47,520 –> 00:02:52,479
These are the morning habits of
Barack Obama, a former US President.
38
00:02:52,480 –> 00:02:55,959
Now, let’s move to Arnold Schwarzenegger.
39
00:02:55,960 –> 00:02:59,880
He’s also famous
for his very early waking up,
40
00:02:59,880 –> 00:03:03,414
described in this book,
and, of course, exercising.
41
00:03:03,415 –> 00:03:07,959
Arnold right after waking up
goes for a cardio workout,
42
00:03:07,960 –> 00:03:12,780
i.e., endurance training, and he did
weight exercises in the evening.
43
00:03:12,800 –> 00:03:19,039
After the morning workout,
he used to read and eat healthy breakfast.
44
00:03:19,040 –> 00:03:21,714
Now, let’s take Bill Gates.
45
00:03:21,715 –> 00:03:27,057
Bill Gates also got up very early
and then headed to his treadmill
46
00:03:27,058 –> 00:03:32,759
where he was exercising his body
and learning some new things.
47
00:03:32,760 –> 00:03:38,719
So, at the same time, he exercised
his body and acquired new skills.
48
00:03:38,720 –> 00:03:43,170
Steve Jobs.
He needs no introduction. Apple founder.
49
00:03:43,171 –> 00:03:47,085
Steve Jobs had
a very interesting morning routine,
50
00:03:47,086 –> 00:03:53,879
as he was asking himself upon waking up,
what he’d do if this was his last day.
51
00:03:53,880 –> 00:03:59,743
He was very actively focusing himself
on what’s most important for him,
52
00:03:59,744 –> 00:04:05,199
not to waste time and he did things
as it was his last day.
53
00:04:05,200 –> 00:04:09,757
Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook founder,
a rather controversial person.
54
00:04:09,758 –> 00:04:13,999
He’d put on the same T-shirt
every morning.
55
00:04:14,000 –> 00:04:18,470
I’m assuming he had
a few of the same rather than one,
56
00:04:18,471 –> 00:04:23,371
but the point is that
he didn’t need to decide what to wear.
57
00:04:23,372 –> 00:04:26,100
As a result,
he didn’t bother with it
58
00:04:26,101 –> 00:04:29,842
and was able to make
many more important decisions,
59
00:04:29,843 –> 00:04:32,557
not focusing on some bullshit things.
60
00:04:32,558 –> 00:04:36,900
Who else? Benjamin Franklin.
61
00:04:36,920 –> 00:04:40,814
Historical figure, one of
the United States founders.
62
00:04:40,815 –> 00:04:46,185
He was known for the fact that
he was getting up very early every day
63
00:04:46,186 –> 00:04:51,919
and focuses on what’s the most important
to do on this particular day.
64
00:04:51,920 –> 00:04:56,986
So, he also focused his thoughts on
what’s the most important to do,
65
00:04:56,987 –> 00:04:59,660
not throwing himself into his duties.
66
00:04:59,661 –> 00:05:03,700
Now, a question for you –
how your day looks like?
67
00:05:03,701 –> 00:05:07,557
Do you get up, turn off the alarm,
continue sleeping,
68
00:05:07,558 –> 00:05:11,871
eat unhealthy breakfast,
don’t think about the most important
69
00:05:11,872 –> 00:05:13,300
tasks for you?
70
00:05:13,301 –> 00:05:16,071
Or maybe you have healthy habits?
71
00:05:16,072 –> 00:05:18,829
You may say that I’m talking nonsense.
72
00:05:18,830 –> 00:05:22,714
Easy habits. Get up early,
exercise. Trivial things.
73
00:05:22,715 –> 00:05:26,443
Maybe trivial,
but how many of you do them?
74
00:05:26,444 –> 00:05:31,314
Do you get up early,
go for a walk, jog, learn,
75
00:05:31,315 –> 00:05:35,260
educate yourself
in aspects that interest you?
76
00:05:35,280 –> 00:05:39,686
How many of you read
the goals, focus on them
77
00:05:39,687 –> 00:05:42,200
and do what’s most important?
78
00:05:42,201 –> 00:05:47,129
How many of you do it
and how many just know that you should?
79
00:05:47,130 –> 00:05:52,660
Morning habits of successful people,
alive or historical ones,
80
00:05:52,680 –> 00:05:57,757
include getting up early,
taking care of your body and mind,
81
00:05:57,758 –> 00:06:02,600
learning and focusing attention
on the most important things
82
00:06:02,601 –> 00:06:04,940
we want to achieve in life.
