This one REALLY speaks to me.
8. Rework your morning routine.
Then make sure you can get to that task as smoothly as possible. Pretend you're an Olympic sprinter and your morning routine is like the warm-up for a race. Don't dawdle, don't ease your way into your morning, and don't make sure you get some "me" time (hey, sleep time is me time). Get up, clean up, fuel up—and start rolling.
My elapsed time from bed to desk is about 15 minutes so there's not much I can improve there. So I started taking a different approach. I once checked email first thing; now I get at least one important thing done.
Sprinters don't do cool-down laps before they race. Neither should we.
