5 minutes to start your day right. We all know that if we start our day nicely, our entire day goes as we have started, with the mood that we have started. So if you're happy, the entire day is going to go in a pretty happy way. If you're sad, the entire day could go in a pretty sad way. So honestly, what you do the first 5 minutes as soon as you wake up is key to determining your entire day, determining the mood of your entire day. Because honestly, what's happening outside is just a part of the reality. We all know a few things, they first happen in our mind and then they happen outside. So how we are processing is more important than what reality really is. First 5 minutes are crucial to your entire day's agenda. The success of your entire day depends on your first 5 minutes. So today I'm going to be giving you 5 things that you can do in the first 5 minutes, and as you like it, you can start increasing the time for each of the activities, right? So once you like the activities and you get used to it, you can start increasing the time, and instead of 5 minutes, you can do a 30 3-minute morning ritual. Now let me tell you a story. I have always been jealous of the people who wake up at 5 AM, the 5 AM Club, because that was something that has been extremely challenging for me. I have never felt that I'm a morning person, and I've never been able to wake up in the morning. And I used to always see all these successful people waking up at 5, getting ready, doing the meditation, doing their doing exercise, eating healthy, and just having a super day. And I was like, how do they do it? That's when I started just this 5-minute ritual. I do this to just build a habit, and I started with 5 minutes. Once the habit was built for 5 minutes, I was able to continue it for at least 45 minutes to 60 minutes at a stretch. But the idea is After you watch the video today, do this exercise for 5 minutes every day for 21 days consistently. Do it for 5 minutes, okay? The first minute, stretch. Now, as soon as you wake up, the first thing that you should do is stretch your body. Now, you can vary this. First 21 days, only stretch for 1 minute. So stretch your hands, stretch your leg, feel the entire stretch in your body, feel your senses, feel all your body parts, feel like you're awake. The second minute, give gratitude. As soon as you wake up, make sure you thank everybody around you. So usually you can start with thanking the universe, thanking your parents for giving you birth, thanking your people around you, thanking your loved ones, thanking your body. Thanking your mind, thanking everybody who has taught you something. The third ritual is drink water. Now for 1 minute, for 60 seconds, drink as much water as you can in 60 seconds. You can keep varying this, so you can start with warm water. One day it could be lemon water, the next day it could be carom seeds water, or it could be just mint water. It could be any, any concoction that you like. It could be turmeric water, turmeric and lemon hot water. While you are drinking the water, imagine the positivity of the water, the energy of the water going into your body. The fourth minute is when you set the tone for the day. In 60 seconds, just write down everything that you have to do today. As you increase the time, you can start with what you want to do in the full day, also what you want to do in the full week and in the full month. When you write the agenda, you start feeling a lot of focus, a lot of attention, a lot of single-pointed determination to get what you want. The 5th minute is affirm how you want your day to be and visualize it and act as if you already have it. So for example, if I want my entire day to be very peaceful, if I want my children to be around me and to hug me, to talk nicely to me, to everybody to be nice, and I want to just have a peaceful day. Then I'm just going to imagine that. I will say that. I'll say, I am a peaceful being, I am a loving being, and I am having a great day. Today is an important day and I am fulfilling my goal. I am fulfilling or achieving the dream that I want. I am getting that house, or I am signing the papers. I am winning that case, or I am acing the exam. Whatever I want, I will affirm and I will visualize. I want a picture in your mind, and I will also act like I already have it. This is the 5-minute exercise to start your day right. Stretch, give gratitude, drink water, write your agenda, and Affirm and visualize. Now, right now, for the next 21 days, do this only for 1 minute each. As you get better and better and better, start doing it for 5 minutes each. So from 5 minutes, this exercise will become for 25 minutes. Soon as you get better and better and you start manifesting your goals, you start getting what you want, you will enjoy this exercise. After this exercise, stay away from screens. No mobile phone, no gadget. So keep this in mind, and when you do these 5 things, you will realize you're getting closer to your goals. You're feeling a lot happier, you're feeling a lot more content, you're feeling peaceful, and also you're feeling more in control. You're not dependent on what anybody else is saying, thinking, feeling, doing to you. You are dependent in your own self. So this is a way to become emotionally independent and a way to really, really manifest your desires. So all the very best. Start your day right with the 5-minute routine.
