Medium - Jacquelin Harris Of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater On The Morning Routines and Habits Of Highly Successful People
Morning routine creates discipline. How you begin the day sets up how focused and productive you can be later on. Creating a sense of purpose with your morning routine sets you up to meet your goals, ultimately boosting your self-esteem in the moment and for the future. Beginnings are a Genesis. That means that not only are they a start, but they are also the origin of all that follows. This means that the way we start something, the way we start our day, for example, creates a trajectory for all that follows. How do highly successful leaders start their day in a way that creates a positive trajectory for a successful, effective, productive, and efficient day? How do you create habits that make these routines permanent? How do you get inspired to develop the discipline necessary for such a lifestyle? In this new series, called Morning Routines and Habits Of Highly Successful People, we are talking to successful leaders who can share the morning routines and habits that have helped them to achieve success.
