3 Ways to Increase Your Morning Time Just by Reducing What You Do
"I don't have enough time for morning activities..."
"I have too many things I want to do, and they all end up half-finished..."
Are you worried about things like that?
Actually, what you need to make your morning activities fulfilling is not 'increasing your time,' but 'reducing what you do.'In this article, I will introduce 3 ways to increase your morning time just by reducing what you do!
If you try these methods, you will be able to secure your own time even in the limited morning hours and properly make progress on the things you want to do.
If you are thinking, "I want to make my morning activities more fulfilling!", please be sure to read this!
1. Create a rule to narrow down what you do to just one thing
Since morning time is limited, instead of "just trying to do everything I can!", let's make a rule that "you only do one thing per morning session."
I used to cram too much into my morning activities even though I only had an hour and a half.
For example...
❌ Morning activities with too many things to do
→ Writing notes, reading, writing school, exercise, household account book, updating SNS...
⭕️ Simplified morning activities
→ Writing notes (30 minutes)
By deciding to limit it to one thing, you develop an awareness of carefully choosing what to do, and the density of your work increases.
Let's try narrowing down what you do in tomorrow's morning session to 'just one thing'!
2. Fix what you do by the day of the week
"I have too many things I want to do in my morning activities, and in the end, nothing gets done..." A way to solve that problem is
to decide what to do by the day of the week.
For example, I recently tried doing it like this.
・Mon/Wed/Fri → Write notes
・Tue/Thu → Reading + notes
・Sat/Sun → Writing school assignments
By fixing what you do, you eliminate the time spent wondering "What should I do today?" and you can start working immediately.
First, let's try the rule of 'deciding what to do by the day of the week' for one week!
3. Do a morning activity detox by deciding what NOT to do
To continue morning activities,it is more important to decide what not to do than to increase what you do.
Since the things I want to do increase rapidly if I'm not careful,
I have a morning activity detox day once a week.
How to do a morning activity detox
・Look back on your current morning activities (Is there anything wasting time?)
・Decide on 3 things you don't have to do (e.g., checking your phone in the morning, unnecessary housework, routines that are too long)
・Allocate that time to the things you 'really want to do'
What would you like to do if your morning time increased?
By reducing wasted time, you will be able to spend time properly on the things you 'really want to do'!
Please try writing down 3 things you don't have to do in the morning as well.
