My Granny always said, "climb your mountains in the morning and the rest of the day will be downhill.". She was able to raise eight children when she was widowed at age 32.". Love your program. Thank you
I was a night owl my whole life, from the time I was a very young child. I hated mornings, felt horrible and draggy, but I was always wired and energized into the wee hours of the night [as a kid] and all through the night, often past dawn, as an adult. When I developed a health problem that made me feel horrible, I couldn’t wait to go to sleep at night, because I couldn’t feel how awful I felt while I was asleep. As a result, I started waking up early in the morning and something happened I never thought possible: I became a morning person and discovered I loved it!!! Not only that, but there were unexpected positive physical and emotional changes as a result. I’d suffered from extreme depression (bipolar disorder) since I was a teen, but all of a sudden that eased up. I’m not even taking medication for it anymore! I still have times when I feel blue, but it feels NORMAL; I don’t careen up and down wildly and don’t feel like I’ve gone over the edge. I never thought I’d know what normal feels like. My sleep is soooo much better. I’ve never slept so well. I wake up feeling excited and ready to go, having the whole day ahead of me filled with possibility, instead of already being half over. I have a morning ritual that’s very low-key, nothing remarkable, but it feels so calm and soothing that I feel genuinely happy to be awake and alive. As a result, I was able to gradually make other changes that made a vast improvement. I started being mindful of what I ate. I cut way (way, way, way) back on processed foods, added sugar, and caffeine. I was someone who ran almost entirely on sugar and caffeine and I never thought I could even lower them, but now I only drink 2-3 cups if decaf coffee (as opposed to endless cups of caffeinated during all my waking hours) and once I had stopped eating sugary things for just a few days, my sugar cravings went away. Never in a million years did I believe that was possible! I started learning about how the health of every system in our bodies is directly tied to our gut health and began working to rebuild my microbiome. The beneficial results were swift. Because of the changes I was making, my health issues started reversing. I’d heard about that happening for other people, but I was certain it couldn’t happen for me. I wish I’d known about all of this and had made these changes years ago, but I’m glad I at least found out when I did! Now, for the first time in my life, I truly understand what the word “miracle” means, and it’s blown my mind. ☺️
I love your comment for so many reasons! Most people don't realise the amount of inflammation that sugar creates in the body including the brain & nervous system & also how vitally important gut health is to our immune function, brain function & overall health. Good for you, that is so awesome to hear! 🤗
This is that kind of comments I love to read: for every human being on this planet, who is able to make positive changes in their lives - is a true miracle, and makes me so happy to hear. We are here to live the best life possible, so it is wonderful when we do ❤ Thank you for sharing.
I think the potential for a better life is at the fingertips of so many people who suffer, like you, but they never realize it. This makes me so happy for you.
After getting sober in 2022, finding tons of emotional healing in 2023, and finally embracing my God-given gifts of drawing in 2024….I am in the process of creating my health plan. This video is really encouraging and comes at the perfect time….giving kids week off homeschool so I can craft my plan. ❤️
Love my morning routine ... Prayer and Bible Wash up and dress for gym. Light breakfast and gym workout. Protein shake and my top 3 priorities to accomplish for the day
Waking up ; take a shower and dress yourself; Pray and meditate. Eat a healthy breakfast and overlook your tasks. Then start the day with a smile and trust in God.
Yes!! And to add to your list…I have to make the bed! When I know I have a freshly made bed to snuggle into at the end of the night is so comforting. The mindset is I am starting the day by prepping for the end of it. 😊
@@JenFlutterby For us we can’t make the bed as the cat doesn’t climb out till late afternoon 😂 But agree that there’s nothing like a made bed every day.
Thank you Joshua. All your videos are very encouraging. I like the way you explain clearly point by point. I never speed up your videos. Rather I repeat and listen to them again. Very insightful.
How to make the most of your day: 1.Try to wake up at the same time everyday, at least every week day. 2. Prioritize physical health. 3. Plan your day the night before. 4. Find time for reflection or meditation. 5. Get dressed for the day. 6. Tackle your most important task, first.
This is excellent advice. I’ve always been a morning person but by that I mean that I relish the alone time. The quiet first hour or two is when I wake, observe, go outside, plan the day. Lucky.
I feed my companions (cats) and then I put out food for the birds and squirrels..then I get a cup of coffee and read, study and write scriptures by topics... Then I have my breakfast.. at 9 am noon and 3 pm I do the Temple hour prayers ..I sing and praise the Lord as i do my house and yardwork..the Lord is my lead in all things! Thank you for your video it is excellent for wisdom knowledge discernment and revelation from the Lord!!
1 - Read Bible 2 - Walk, while listening to music or a good sermon/TH-cam video 3 - read 20 minutes 4 - a daily house task Then the day homeschooling with the kids and madness!
This is video is very timely for me. I am in a new marriage after being widowed and on my own for seven years. It’s been wonderful but, quite a transition. I appreciated your advice on the importance of structuring our mornings. I needed these reminders. Thank you Joshua!
I’ve been retired for almost 2 years due to health issues and finding a routine has be difficult. I generally wake up about 6:30 and morning prayers are the first thing of the day before I even get out of bed. After that it totally depends on my pain level but I’m finding if I make myself get up and do things I start to feel better earlier. There are however days when nothing but prayers gets accomplished and I am blessed to have the luxury of allowing my body to just be. Thank you for another awesome video. Blessings to all.
This is totally random, but if anyone has really weird health symptoms and auto immunity stuff, and just can never get down to the bottom of it, test for chronic Lyme disease. Chronic Lyme disease mimics so many things like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, MS, Parkinson’s…The Igenex test is the one that picks it up. I’m finally redeeming my health after weird symptoms for years. I’m getting a new lease on life. God bless.❤🙏
I agree that setting the tone is so important. I also write everything down the day before for the next day, since I don’t want to squander my time wondering and figuring things out that morning. I need a plan. My routine: Get up, make bed, go downstairs to feed cat and to get coffee to bring back up , Bible/ devotions, exercise ( Pilates/ weights/ treadmill ) or run outside if it’s not a go -into- work day. Look over the days agenda , get ready , eat, vitamins, and get on with my day. I like beginning this way because I’ve already accomplished things before I’ve even really started my day. Oh I left one thing off: Mark my “ watch laters” from my TH-cam feed for when I have downtime later. Thanks for the video. 😊
Actually the truth is, the Night before routine ,will have a big impact on how your morning and the rest of the day will be. Our agenda should be :Spend time with God the night before, before you go to sleep. Spend time with God when you get up before your day begins, asking him to go before you and prepare your day. God first in everything, gives us peace, safety, Wisdom and Joy. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Perfect timing for this video. I've been trying this past week to get up early and do many of the things mentioned in this video. Thanks for the inspiration!
I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever,hoping to retire next year.. Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life
I'll advise you to work with a financial advisor.....Building a good investment portfolio is more complex so I would recommend you seek Fergus Waylen's support. This way you can get strategies designed to address your unique long/short-term goals and financial dreams..
Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing him been mentioned here also Didn't know he has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, i'm in my fifth trade with him and it has been super
Good morning, Joshua. Due to timedifference, I just woke up saturday morning in Denmark, Europe...and had the privilige to start my morning with you for 7.55 minutes 😊 My task nr.1 for today is home workout & yoga, which I feel even more inspired to now, thanks to your video. Greetings from Camilla in Denmark ☀️
Great video... thank you! Starting my day in prayer and having a priority list rather than a to do list has been a real game changer for me personally. Prayer and Workout are on it in that order daily.
I’ve found that it’s better to write my to-do list for the next day in the late afternoon, before dinner. If I do it too late at night, the thought of the next day’s tasks can keep me awake! If I think of anything extra, I just quickly add it to the list, and try not to think about it too much. Good video, thanks, Joshua! :-)
What perfect timing. I needed to hear these words right now. Not that they are new information, but that they are again motivating me to do what I know is the effective way to move forward. Thank you, Joshua.
Years ago, I had a friend who used to wake up at 6 o'clock. And that would be her time before starting breakfast at 7. A.M. During that morning, she would have her cup of tea or coffee. And she would get the Bible out. And she would read it, and then she would think about the scripture. She read and meditated on it and asked yourself how that scripture applied to her and how important it was to her family, etc. et cetera. So she would do some prayer as most Christians do. then at 7 she'd wake her children up, and they would have to get dressed make thier bed and wash up while she was making breakfast for the family. I think they had forty-five minutes before they sat down and had the breakfast. But she was a person who had to stick with her schedule and routine. She said if she didn't, it would off balance her day, and something would suffer. She put me to shame😅 And she would have a certain day for cleaning her house another day for washing her clothes. Another day for baking and another day for shopping and another day for a fun family day. Etc. When I first met her, her house was always spotless and always clean. And I thought she was an extremist, but that was not so. I was the one who needed to learn from her. Because I had no real discipline in my life growing up. So everyone has had a different up bringing. Her mother, was always punctual as well and lived by her schedule. And so Her children followed the example of their mother. I said to her " How in the world you do this? And she says "see that calendar on the wall, that's what I follow as best as I can. We're imperfect, and we are not going to have a perfect home, but I know for me what works is I have to have at least one day for laundry, and I will not change that. Because you get so used to that one day it habit forming. it's not something that you question. You just know . Yes, you have some very good pointers here. And I appreciate your videos, josh. we all need to be encouraging each other Regardless of whether we share different beliefs or not, we are encouraged to respect other nationalities and those who believe different than us. Because if we don't then we're not Is followingwhat jesus said. Soon we will all live peacefully with one another on this earth worshipping the same god. And living in harmony with one another. There will be no wars. There will be no more pain and suffering as that will be a thing of the past. Have a good day. Or night 😀
I struggle with this. Work starts at 7 in the morning. I feel like I'd have to get up in the middle of the night to actually do a work out and take time for myself and what not and still get to work on time.
I don't know. My husband and I are both teachers. Staff meetings are at 7:30 a.m., so we have to be up by 5:00 a.m. It seems none of society can understand why we have to start winding down between 7:00-8:00 p.m.
My favorite…and just at the right time! God has been patiently working on my heart with this matter, so thank you for helping me, by listening to Him! John 3:16❤
I find that if I try to make a list of what I do in the morning, I can't accomplish it, but if I make a list at night. I'm more readily to accomplish it in the morning. I read somewhere that. The last thing you think about before you go to bed. It's the first thing you think about when you get up in the morning.
When I grew up In the country my dad got up at five he woke me up at six And at seven , he had the breakfast ready for me and I was off to school catching the bus at 8 And my body got used to it and I always wake up exactly at the time that I did when I was young. I never need a alarm clock even when it's winter out. And it's darker my body just automatically wakes up at that time. The only time it hasn't is when my sleep was disturbed In the middle of the night and if I can't get back to sleep , I will try and then I oversleep by one hour. But for the majority of the time , it's always the same as growing up as a kid.
I hate mornings, always have. When I was a kid, I had to get up for school. Then it was get up for work. When I became a Mom, it was get up early every day of the week, he woke up early & hungry. Now that I'm retired, I see no need for forcing myself to get up early. I've always been a night owl.
Not a morning person. Just turned 50 and have learned to live with as our world is geared to morning people. Oddly I was born in late pm so maybe that’s my time 😂
I've never understood the "eat frogs" saying. I say, "eat tadpoles, before they turn into frogs". I know, not as short and catchy, but it makes more sense.
I have been a morning person for over 40 years waking up at 5.30 to 6 without an alarm. But since I got ill I struggle and to do meditation in the morning is impossible as I doze off if I am not moving around 😂
I used to find this easy to do before becoming a mum. I have a 10 month old and time is no longer my own, everything revolves around my lovely daughter. Any tips on how, if possible, to get some of it back or will I just have to wait until she's older? Thank you. ☺
Don’t wait until she’s older, kids thrive on routine My babies were up early and I simply had a different rhythm I had my read/pray while baby napped Find a schedule that works for you and baby
Spilt my coffee this morning. Lol. You just have to take charge of the day either way. (Esp mishaps ya know. And mentally. Can’t let it ruin your whole day). Number 1. Not exactly an A on that. Prob my worst one Bcuz I don’t often have any outward specific time obligations now. When I had “on the clock” duties…I was better at it. Right now I just focus on getting a proper amount of rest/sleep and regular go to bed and wake up rituals. Listening to my body’s cues more. (Esp with not “pushing” past “go to bed now” tired feelings in the name of “getting more done”). Also, a lot of my life was spent working second shift and prob could say a confirmed night owl.
My friend told me she has protein in her breakfast. After a high-protein breakfast, your blood sugar can remain low for up to four hours,” says Picano. By contrast, starting the day with refined carbs sends your blood surging-and quickly crashing, leaving you feeling tired and hungry. Protein also keeps you feeling fuller and more satisfied after your morning meal. AND I KNOW you have mentioned that yourself
Unless….. you work a job and don’t blog for a living and have to be to work at 7:45. In the meantime after work it is filled with pets, kids and grandkids. I like to stay motivated but these types of videos are becoming more discouraging all the time. Oh, how I crave for some content makers who live a real life and are Real people. 😩
Great video. It’d be refreshing to hear you say “read the Bible,” instead of “do some religious reading.” Since the Bible is the only alive and God inspired book in the universe, it deserves its own place apart from general“religious reading”, which sounds more audience appeasing. It’s also far more personal, authentic and a greater witness of His truth.” 🩵📖✨
My Granny always said, "climb your mountains in the morning and the rest of the day will be downhill.". She was able to raise eight children when she was widowed at age 32.". Love your program. Thank you
Such wise words
What a good saying!
I like it. Only problem is we live in a world which would try to say you should live up and up.
Thankfully Im not opposed to going agaainst the grain
I was a night owl my whole life, from the time I was a very young child.

Making the bed is unfortunately bad because of bacteria, it should get fresh air and be made much later or not at all 😉 (google it!)

Well most days , I up at 3:30 am … yoga at 4:00 am, breakfast 4:45 AM, art workshop 5:00 AM work at 6:00 AM ….. works great.
I wake up at 1
❤. Fellow 3 am'er
I never sleep at all.
@@deion312 what time do you go to bed ? LoL
What time do you go to bed?
Very, very good. I will revisit this. TY.
As always wonderful advice. Ty❤😊
I hate mornings, always have. When I was a kid, I had to get up for school. Then it was get up for work. When I became a Mom, it was get up early every day of the week, he woke up early & hungry. Now that I'm retired, I see no need for forcing myself to get up early. I've always been a night owl.
Not a morning person. Just turned 50 and have learned to live with as our world is geared to morning people. Oddly I was born in late pm so maybe that’s my time 😂
you are not alone!
I've never understood the "eat frogs" saying. I say, "eat tadpoles, before they turn into frogs". I know, not as short and catchy, but it makes more sense.
Good information
Very good
Good morning🌞😊
Good morning!
Tapping has become an important part of my morning ❤
I have been a morning person for over 40 years waking up at 5.30 to 6 without an alarm. But since I got ill I struggle and to do meditation in the morning is impossible as I doze off if I am not moving around 😂
Wow im just watching this video at 10:15pm!! 😮 😅
My workday starts at 6 am. No way I get up earlier!

What about shift workers? I have three different schedules (wake, eat, sleep) in one week.
I prefer the early bird 🐦gets the worm🐛 Never heard of eating frogs yuk! 🐸
The phrase, eating frogs, is not about getting up in the morning. It is a productive term - getting the hardest task done first
@@AliWade1971 oh? I thought someone just commented about tadpoles turning into frogs, hence eating before they mature into something bigger later.
I used to find this easy to do before becoming a mum. I have a 10 month old and time is no longer my own, everything revolves around my lovely daughter. Any tips on how, if possible, to get some of it back or will I just have to wait until she's older? Thank you. ☺
Don’t wait until she’s older, kids thrive on routine
My babies were up early and I simply had a different rhythm
I had my read/pray while baby napped
Find a schedule that works for you and baby
@@carmenschneider9512 Thank you xx
Great video .needed badly .
PLEASE TEL US WHAT YOU EAT IN N DAY 🙏🏻
Get up at 4.30 am every single day. Yoga, Qigong, meditation, EFT and journaling….been doing it for 20 odd years.
How do you do your morning routine with kids?
❤
I’m curious what your wife’s morning routine looks like, or yours when you had younger children.
❤❤❤
Spilt my coffee this morning. Lol. You just have to take charge of the day either way. (Esp mishaps ya know. And mentally. Can’t let it ruin your whole day).
Number 1. Not exactly an A on that. Prob my worst one Bcuz I don’t often have any outward specific time obligations now. When I had “on the clock” duties…I was better at it. Right now I just focus on getting a proper amount of rest/sleep and regular go to bed and wake up rituals. Listening to my body’s cues more. (Esp with not “pushing” past “go to bed now” tired feelings in the name of “getting more done”). Also, a lot of my life was spent working second shift and prob could say a confirmed night owl.

My friend told me she has protein in her breakfast.
After a high-protein breakfast, your blood sugar can remain low for up to four hours,” says Picano. By contrast, starting the day with refined carbs sends your blood surging-and quickly crashing, leaving you feeling tired and hungry. Protein also keeps you feeling fuller and more satisfied after your morning meal. AND I KNOW you have mentioned that yourself
Self-care, solitude, meditation…. 🤔
Unless….. you work a job and don’t blog for a living and have to be to work at 7:45. In the meantime after work it is filled with pets, kids and grandkids. I like to stay motivated but these types of videos are becoming more discouraging all the time. Oh, how I crave for some content makers who live a real life and are
Real people. 😩
I think many people who comment may be retired.
so you are not the one who is in charge of the household and kids that is your wife ???
It shouldn't matter to youtube.
Great video. It’d be refreshing to hear you say “read the Bible,” instead of “do some religious reading.” Since the Bible is the only alive and God inspired book in the universe, it deserves its own place apart from general“religious reading”, which sounds more audience appeasing. It’s also far more personal, authentic and a greater witness of His truth.” 🩵📖✨
Thank you for sharing this great thinking❤
