What I cover: 👉🏻 Why most morning routines fail by Wednesday, and the mistake almost everyone makes when trying to wake up earlier 👉🏻 How to remove decision fatigue from your mornings so you're not negotiating with yourself at 6am 👉🏻 The role your phone plays in your routine 👉🏻 Why SYSTEMS beat motivation every time, and how to actually build habits that stick Referenced in this episode: 👉🏻 Why You Can't Focus and the Framework to Actually Fix It (A Complete Guide to Deep Work) — https://youtu.be/z49IReLo4AU?si=dyetcaV2j5Esmkds GET THE NEW PRODUCTIVITY PLANNER! 👉🏻 https://breakyourbudget.com/productivity-planner Subscribe to the Beyond Your Budget Substack: https://breakyourbudget.substack.com/ Personal Finance Starter Kit…
