COFFEE. COFFEE. Coffee.

@akanksha_hunts I used to drink at least 3 cups of β˜• a day, but since my mother-in-law told me that this could easily cause calcium loss, I have switched to a maximum of 2 a day and start to taking calcium supplements.πŸ˜‚
@zhao_naomi Thank you so much for sharing that information with me! I should start with some changes to my coffee consumption and consult for calcium supplements too. πŸ˜„πŸ™
@diana_iun I appreciate your perspective, and honesty. However, A cup of morning coffee is something I just cannot start without. πŸ˜›

Meditation before I start reviewing my to do list which was prepared the previous day so as to have a second more sober look at the day's priorities
Zhao Naomi
@apollon440 This approach feels very worth trying. Do you use any apps to assist with meditation?

@zhao_naomi I use muse headset which assists in calming me down with guided meditation sessions accompanied by serene sounds of nature (such as waves, underwater sounds or waterfalls) or when in hurry, I use some guided meditation sessions that I have saved from youtube

typically the first thing I do at the start of my workday is check my emails and calendar for any urgent messages or appointments, and then prioritize my tasks for the day, ensuring alignment with my overall goals and deadlines.
Zhao Naomi
@cgriffin_2000 May I ask how long this usually takes you?

Coffee > reading > journaling > workout > start working

@jorge_medina Wow, your morning seems really fulfilling. What time do you usually wake up?
Jorge Medina
@zhao_naomi 6am πŸ˜…. but I go to bed at 10pm most days. i started trying this routine and I found it extremely liberating. my sleep got better, i woke up rested and i ise the quiet hours of the early am to get a good start of the day. it helps me stay present and focus. you should try it!!
Zhao Naomi
@deleted-4810096 I am aware that sleeping earlier and waking up earlier is beneficial not only for physical health but also for day-time productivity. However, the challenge is significant for me since I am a night owl type of person.πŸ˜…

Straight work. I have my phone turned on flight mode through the night, and turn it off only after my first work block is complete - around 10 am
Zhao Naomi
@jacobsjourney Thank you for sharing your tips on staying focused. It sounds very practical and I will definitely give it a try.

@serhii_uspenskyi Me too. However, I often find myself distracted by notification emails from subscribed newsletters, which wastes a significant amount of time every morning. I am currently try to adjust my daily routine to increase productivity.

Check Slack -> check emails -> coffee
I drink my coffee and plan the day ahead
James Sukosd
At the office the first thing I do is say hi to everyone on my team and small talk, at home the first thing I do is check my schedule for the day and write out my to-do list
Zhao Naomi
@james_sukosd That was really nice! I strongly believe that engaging in small talk with teams before starting work can significantly boost team morale.

Each morning, I kickstart my day by reviewing my to-do list and setting clear priorities. Starting with a focused plan sets the tone for a productive and successful day ahead! πŸŒŸπŸ“
Zhao Naomi
@tanjirrahman Awesome! Having a clear plan and priorities is a great way to stay organized and make the most out of your day. Keep up the good work!

Read news. I don't know why. But I power up my PC, Open browser, and Read 5-10 news articles before i start the work. It's a habit that I don't regretπŸ˜„.
Zhao Naomi
@arun_prakash12 Of course, keeping ourselves updated with the latest news is always a good habit. It helps us stay informed and aware of what's happening around us. Keep it up!
