Your mornings don't need to be perfect — they just need to be intentional.In this episode, I'm breaking down how to master your morning routine in a way that actually works for your life, not the 5 AM influencer fantasy. We're talking realistic habits, mindset shifts, and systems that help you feel grounded, productive, and confident before the day runs you.If you've been waking up rushed, anxious, or already behind — this episode is your reset. We'll cover how to design a morning routine that supports your goals, your energy, and your future self (without burning out or hating your life).This is your permission slip to romanticize structure, choose yourself first, and start your days with clarity instead of chaos.
"The first ritual you do during the day is the highest leveraged ritual, by far, because it has the effect of setting the mind and setting the context for the rest of your day." — Naval Ravikant or was it Eben Pagan? I don't know, but it's a great quote to begin today's episode. Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin Join the Time And Life Mastery Programme here.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. Your morning routine is one of the best ways to create a productive day. If you were to wake up at the very last moment, rush around your home getting ready while trying to sip your hot coffee, and rush out the door to catch the train to work, you've started the day in a stressed state, and you're likely to stay stressed all day. It's not a great way to begin the day. If you were to start the day with a set of routines that you follow every day, two things would happen. The first is that you have no decisions to make, which preserves your decision-making powers—powers that diminish throughout the day. And the second is that the routine itself allows you to slow down. However, as with all things good for us, we can take it to extremes, which can create stress in itself. I remember in 2017, I began doing Robin Sharma's 5 AM Club. This is where you wake up at 5:00 AM, do twenty minutes of sweaty exercise, twenty minutes of planning, and twenty minutes of learning. It's a great routine, but unfortunately for me, in 2018, I began coaching, which meant I was doing calls late at night, significantly reducing the sleep I was getting. I found myself walking around all day like a zombie. I decided to stop doing the 5 AM Club routine and develop my own, which I've stuck with for seven years now, and I still love my mornings. And with that said, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Teagan. Teagan asks, In my morning routine, I take care of my pets, check my home budgeting app, then have breakfast and coffee while doing my email sort. My daily planning is done the night before. The problem is that I don't want to transition to getting dressed and starting work after doing this routine. It takes me 3 hours or more to get going. I'd like to do some physical activity, but this would make the morning even longer. Do you have any tips on moving more efficiently through the morning? Hi Teagan, thank you for your question. I think the simple answer would be to include getting dressed as part of your morning routine. However, before you get there, I think there may be an issue in your routine. Three hours is too long for a morning routine. Let me explain. Imagine you had a flight to catch at 7:00 AM. It takes you 90 minutes to get to the airport, and you need to allow 2 hours for check-in and getting to your gate. That would mean you need to leave your house at 3:30 AM. If your morning routine takes three hours, you would need to start your day at 12:30 AM. Therefore, dangerously reducing your sleep time. Most people think of doing their morning routines when everything is normal. Unfortunately, “normal” is not a consistent state of affairs for most of us. It may happen 90% of the time, but when we develop our morning routines, we need to consider the 10% of days when it doesn't and how we will start the day on those days. The “perfect” morning routine is a routine you do 100% of the time. This would be your starting point. I've found that a morning routine of around 45 minutes is realistic. This means that even on days when you need to start your day earlier than usual, there are few excuses you can use not to do your routine. Although hopefully you won't need “excuses” for not doing it. Your morning routine should be something you look forward to doing. It gives you a reason to jump out of bed, not crawl out. It should be built around things you enjoy doing. To give you an example, my morning routine is: Wake up and put the kettle on. Drink a glass of lemon juice water while the kettle is boiling. Make a pot of Yorkshire Tea. Wash my face and brush my teeth. Then, sit down at my desk, with my mug of tea, open my journal and begin writing. Finally, open my email and clear my inbox. In total, that takes me about 40 to 50 minutes. It depends on how much I write in my journal. As I know my routine won't take any longer than 50 minutes, I can confidently decide when to set my wake-up time. For example, on a Monday, I have a call at 7:00 am; therefore, I wake up at 6:00 am. Other days, I can wake up at my preferred time of 8:00 am. Last summer, we needed to leave for the airport at 5:00 am. This meant on that day, I woke up at 4:00 am and was ready to go at 5:00 am. I don't include getting dressed in my morning routine. I get dressed as my tea is brewing after I've washed my face and brushed my teeth. The purpose of your morning routine is to mentally prepare you for the day ahead. It's not to create more stress. I love writing my journal and that first cup of tea of the day. When my alarm goes off in the morning, it's often the first thing I think about, and I do jump out of bed—much to Louis's annoyance—he's not a morning dog. Robin Sharma recently posted his “new” four-hour morning routine on YouTube. It's a superb, inspiring and motivational routine, yet completely impractical for most people. You don't need a four-hour morning routine to get the benefits of the morning routine. Some people love exercise in the morning, others don't. That doesn't mean that those who don't like exercise in the morning miss out. For a morning routine that works for you, start with what you love doing. You mentioned your pets. If your pets like to go out in the morning, and it's something you enjoy doing, then you can build that into your morning routine. However, if it's just refilling water bowls and giving them breakfast, you could use that as the trigger to start your routine. The trigger is the first thing you do in the morning. For me, that's putting the kettle on; for others, it could be a visit to the bathroom or letting their dog out. The trigger should be something you automatically do without thinking. This is similar to what James Clear calls “habit stacking”. It's the first in a series of activities that start the stack. So how do you transition from your morning routines to the start of your day? This will depend on whether you work from home or go to an office. If you work from home, the last activity of your morning routine should automatically transition you. For example, clearing my email inbox is the last activity of my routine, and it smoothly transitions me into my first task of the day. Today, that was to write this script. Now, why do I clear my email first? I protect the first 30 minutes of my day for emergencies or urgent requests. So, today I began at 8:00 am and started writing this script at 9:30 am. 9:30 am is usually when my focus time starts. If there's an email that requires an urgent response, I have time to deal with it without it distracting me while I am focusing on my most important work of the day. It clears my head and reassures me there's nothing more important than doing that first task. If you work in an office, the last activity in your routine should be leaving for work. You know when you need to leave for work, so you have a reference point you can use to decide when you should be waking up. The definition of a routine is something that you do consistently, often without thinking. I've been doing my morning routines for seven years, and I frequently find myself sitting at my desk writing in my journal, wondering how I got there. I know I've followed my routines. I have a cup of hot tea next to me, and I am dressed. These routines are ingrained into how I begin each day. One thing I do, though, that may help you, Teagan, is I lay out my clothes before I go to bed. When I wake up, my clothes are there right in front of me—no decision to make. Just put them on and start my day. Having your clothes laid out ready for you in the morning may mean that you need a small end-of-day routine. While you may not have a formalised closing-down routine, one thing you can do as you get ready for bed is to lay out your clothes for tomorrow morning after you've brushed your teeth. Then, in the morning, you've reduced the resistance to getting dressed and starting the day. So there you go, Teagan. I would first suggest you look at your morning routines and see where you could reduce them so they don't last more than an hour. Think about those days when you may need to wake up early—could you still complete your morning routines? Make sure what you have in your routines are things you love doing. If you don't love doing them, your morning routines will become a chore. Not the best way to start your day. And for getting dressed, set out your clothes the evening before so you reduce the resistance when you wake up. I hope that has helped. Thank you for your question, Teagan, and thank you to you too for listening. This podcast will be on a break next week, so let me wish you a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive end to 2025.
In these interesting times we inhabit, each of us bears the responsibility to do all we can to protect our strength and hope, right? I know this sentiment is unorthodox in a culture that encourages us to blame all outside of us for the way we think, feel and operate.It's ever so easy to blame the labor market and blame the economy and blame adversity for any challenges we face versus remembering that human beings have the power to rise above anything life decides to send us.As you know if you've been following my work these past few years, a fireproofed morning routine is THE golden key to consistently positive, productive and energetic days.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today we're diving into one of the most requested topics: what to do when rage takes over. I'm joined by parent coach Shelly Robinson to talk about what's really happening when we lose it on our kids, why it feels so hard to stay calm during everyday routines like getting out the door, and how we can show up with more intention—even when our capacity is low. We also unpack what it looks like to raise multiple kids with completely different nervous systems, and how to co-create routines that actually reduce conflict. If you're someone who feels like you're snapping more than you'd like—or you're navigating sibling tension, sensory mismatches, or that gnawing sense that you're failing—you're in the right place. Alright folks, let's dive in.

"I grew up in a 'customer comes first' world. It took me 50 years to realize that if I'm not first, everything else eventually falls apart." What happens when "customer first" quietly turns into "you last"? In today's episode, I sit down with my friend and Missing Links Golf Show co-host, Andy Walker, to unpack the hidden cost of always giving more than you've got. We talk about how that pattern shows up in golf, trading, business, and fatherhood—and what changes when you finally put your health and wellbeing at the top of the list. In this episode, you'll learn: How childhood programming around "service" and "customer first" quietly turns into self-neglect and burnout. Why your health, energy, and identity must sit above business, golf, and clients in your priority stack. How Andy built a simple, sustainable morning routine that blends resistance training, cardio, breathwork, and visualization. A practical way to define your core life values—and then use them as filters for how you spend your time and energy. How to make golf practice and exercise easy and irresistible by changing your environment (hello, backyard "High Performance Center"). Why vulnerability and asking for help accelerate your growth in golf, business, and life—and why "she'll be right" is killing performance. How to reframe self-care from "selfish" to the foundation of elite golf mindset, business mindset, and long-term health. If you've ever felt guilty taking time for yourself, this conversation will help you rewrite that story and start performing from a full tank instead of fumes.

When you grow up with "give, give, give" programming, you'll over-serve others and under-serve yourself until you consciously rewrite that pattern. The real priority stack for golfer–entrepreneurs is: health and wellbeing → family and relationships → business and clients → everything else. Writing your values and priorities down gives you clarity, emotional relief, and a decision-making filter for your time and energy. A simple, repeatable morning routine that blends training, breathwork, and visualization can anchor your entire day in focus, calm, and confidence. Environment design—like having a home gym or golf sim—removes friction and makes practice and self-care easy instead of a constant battle of willpower. Vulnerability and asking for help are not weaknesses; they are shortcuts to emotional clarity, faster growth, and a more sustainable version of success. Key Quotes: Your clients don't just need you available—they need you at your best. And you cannot be at your best if you're not taking care of yourself. I grew up in a 'customer comes first' world. It took me 50 years to realize that if I'm not first, everything else eventually falls apart. You don't get to leave your emotional baggage in the trunk when you walk onto the first tee. You bring your whole self to the golf course. It's easy to set goals like 'break 80' or 'hit seven figures.' The harder—and more important—question is: Who do I need to become to live that reality? Self-care used to feel selfish and self-indulgent. Now I see it as the bare minimum required to be the husband, father, golfer, and trader I want to be. If it's not blocked on your calendar, it's not truly a priority. Your schedule is the truth-teller of your values. Asking for help accelerates results. Vulnerability doesn't slow you down—it removes the emotional weight that's been holding you back.

Struggling with your teen's late nights, groggy mornings, and endless battles over bedtime? You're not alone—and you're not imagining it. In this powerful episode of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, certified Ayurvedic practitioner Nidhi Pandya breaks down why traditional sleep rules fail with teenagers and reveals a compassionate, science-backed approach that finally works. She explains how teen circadian rhythms shift during adolescence, why the 11 PM–2 AM “power hours” matter more than total sleep, and how stress—not screens—is the real culprit behind poor sleep. Nidhi shares practical tools rooted in ancient Ayurvedic wisdom and modern neurobiology, giving parents simple ways to reduce resistance, build connection, and help their teens naturally reset their sleep schedule—without nagging, yelling, or forcing bedtime. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why your teen's late nights are biological—not behavioral—and how to work with their changing circadian rhythm instead of fighting it The real reason screens aren't the biggest sleep disruptor for teens (and what is sabotaging their rest instead) How to create calming evening rituals that reduce stress, strengthen connection, and help your teen unwind naturally The counterintuitive morning strategy that builds responsibility—and why parents must stop being the household alarm clock

Your morning routine is broken. Not because you're doing it wrong. But because you're doing what someone else told you works for them. I tried all the guru stuff. The ice baths, the 5 a.m. productivity sprints, the meditation marathons. Some of it worked. Most of it didn't. I spent years punishing myself with morning routines that looked perfect on paper but made my life worse. Then I asked myself one simple question that changed everything. It's not about what you should do. It's about what serves the life you're actually trying to build. Featured Story I wasn't always a morning person. When I started in radio at 18, I'd stand in the shower thinking about how long I could keep getting up at 4 a.m. Later in my career, I'd hit my desk by 5 a.m., pounding through my to-do list like my life depended on it. But I was miserable. Then I swung the other way. Spent a couple years doing the personal development morning. Reading, meditating, taking care of myself before heading to the gym. I got in better shape. My bank account shrank. My future goals felt unreachable. One day I got frustrated and asked myself one question. That question put everything in perspective. It wasn't about productivity or personal care. It was about something bigger. Important Points Traditional morning routines fall into two camps: personal development or productivity, but neither one serves everyone all the time. The magic isn't in following someone else's perfect morning formula but in asking what serves the life you're designing. Flexibility beats rigidity when your routine adapts to what matters most that day instead of following the same order forever. Memorable Quotes "Stand your butt up. Just stand up and then take a step in the direction you want to go and just keep going until you get it." "Everything works to some level, but does it work for you?" "What's the first thing I should do tomorrow morning that if I do, will allow me to live the life that I design?" Scott's Three-Step Approach Ask yourself the night before what one thing tomorrow morning will serve the life you're designing, not what's on your to-do list. Build flexibility into your routine so some days it's work, some days it's wind therapy on a motorcycle, some days it's grandkids. Stop punishing yourself with morning rituals that look perfect but make your life worse in the ways that actually matter.

Most people know Mel Robbins for her viral “5 Second Rule” or her bestselling book The Let Them Theory. But what they don't know is the raw, messy story behind how she went from $800,000 in debt and hiding from bill collectors… to building one of the biggest self-improvement empires in the world. In this episode, Mel opens up about the moment she almost lost everything — her home, her marriage, her hope — and what finally snapped her out of it. She reveals the brutally honest conversation that changed her life, how she clawed her way back one tiny habit at a time, and why she says every entrepreneur has to “fight for the first 15 minutes of the day.” If you've ever wondered how to actually rebuild when life falls apart — or how to finally defeat failure, jealousy, and burnout — this conversation is for you.
