      Getting up early in the morning! It's not a big deal for those who can get up easily, but I struggle to get up even at 8 AM and then have to rush things. I have also tried "The 5 AM Club" by Robin Sharma and excellent "The Miracle Morning" by Hal Elrod but to no avail. Currently, on a 57 day streak! Please don't ask what time I get up as it's still late from the point of view of morning people :)

      It sounds really cheesy (and to be honest, it is a bit cheesy,) but The Miracle Morning[0] is a set of habits…collected into a system by Hal Elrod that have been very beneficial to me. The habits are:

      * Silence (this could be meditation or prayer if that’s your thing)

      * Affirmations (this is the one I struggle with the most - it feels the most self-help-guru-esque to me. I implement this as reviewing “what are the things that are important to me, am I doing them, what am I not doing that I should be doing?”

      * Visualization - visualize how you want your day to go

      * Exercise

      * Reading

      * Scribing - aka keeping a journal.

      The idea is to do each for ten minutes every morning.

      Change what your autopilot does. Get habits which result in active reading and deep thinking. Go, get a piece of paper, and write down the following instructions for yourself, "I will get up an hour earlier tomorrow morning. During that time I will read something. After I read it I will take notes on it. After I take notes on it I will reflect on all my notes. I will then repeat this process for the next thirty days."

      Congratulations, if you do that, because you've solved your active reading and deep thinking problem. Habitually, you will read actively and think deeply. Keep in mind, you'll still have your other bad habits. You'll still read mindlessly and procrastinate during other times. However, you won't always be doing that. You're going to have a better base to work from.

      Later you can read books like Miracle Morning to improve your morning habits, Bullet Journal to create short notes for yourself to work from later, and How To Take Smarter Notes to get a deeper dive on the topic of active reading than anyone in the other comments has had time to go into.

      Hello, that's simple... do it before starting your job. Must read: "Miracle morning by Al Elrod". And use a habit tracker to be steady.

      That's what Miracle Morning (great book) suggests you do. Wake up early and get your personal affairs and goals done while everyone else is sleeping. Less distractions in the morning too!
