Tim Ferriss' #MorningRoutine

Tim, people want to know, what is your morning routine?

My routines are usually focused on a number of things, including clarifying and confirming what those few things are that matter. So I will wake up, I have tea every morning, but I'll usually wake up and I'll have— I'll do 15-20 minutes of Transcendental Meditation. Then I will start my tea, I'll boil the water. Or actually it's 185 degrees. I get very specific. Coffee! So I have a Cuisinart kettle that allows you to pick the temperature. Oh nice. And to 185 degrees, then I usually have a combination that you, just like you guys saw earlier, I have this stuff. So it's Pu-erh tea, which is an aged black tea typically from China, combined with turmeric and ginger, and then I like to add in some type of green tea. Oftentimes, Essentia. If I'm feeling sick or if I feel like I'm coming down with something, I'll add garlic to that, so minced garlic usually. Otherwise, that is sort of my morning tea. Then once I have my tea, I'll sit down and I will do one of two things. I'll either use something called the 5-minute journal. 5 minutes first thing in the morning, 5 minutes right before you go to bed. Right. Really helpful for, I think, priming your mind for the day and does that through 3 things you're grateful for, forcing you to re-identify your priorities, and then having basically a performance review before you go to bed. And either that or morning pages. So I will freehand journal and the intention of that is not to be a good writer. And I think it's particularly valuable for people who never write or don't right, actually, you know, because it allows you to take the, the self-defeating talk or anxieties or worries that you have, your preoccupations, and trap them in the form of words on a page so that you can get on with your fucking day. That gets us to, let's just say, uh, 8:30, 9 o'clock. Uh, at that point, I like to do some, some basic mobility work. After that 20 to 30 minute exercise block, I would like to focus on some type of content, whether it be writing, audio, interviewing, et cetera, and then lunch, and then after lunch is where I do the grunt work. For research, I would put in that bucket, right? Not for broadcast, but for research. And on and on and on. So that's sort of the first 3 to 4 hour block of most of my days.
