A daily morning routine can make all the difference

Since 18 days I practiced my morning routine at the beginning of each day, and looking back I realized that doing this was a really good choice, so I plan to keep doing it for the rest of my life.

Now why is a morning routine so important ? A morning routine is essentially the first thing you do in the morning, it is a predetermined set of actions that you apply deliberately each morning.

But how does that impact your results when it comes to nofap ? Well, the way we start our day is the initial dynamic, it's the direction we go towards, and so it is much easier to keep going in that direction for the entire day. What's more a morning routine creates consistency and regularity, which are two essential building blocks to keep going on the long-term on the nofap journey.

Now what does a morning routine should look like ? It doesn't have to be too long, in fact I would recommend something that you can follow easily and with enjoyment, but the point is to do activities which will be beneficial and positive for the dynamic of your day. For example my morning routine consists in 7 small steps :

1. Drinking water

2. Good physical posture

3. Breathing

4. Washing my face with water

5. Stretching

6. Two series of 5 push-ups, 5 abdominals, 5 squats

7. Writing my goals for the day

All of this takes less than 6 minutes, but the reward is wonderful.

Actually you don't necessarily need to have only 1 morning routine, you can have a wide variety of routines. For example you can have a routine for physical preparation (if you plan to go jogging afterwards), a productive routine (if your want to work efficiently during the day), or a creative routine (if you want to generate an abundance of creative ideas during the day), ...

And from that point you can choose your morning routine depending on what you want to achieve during your day.
