What Successful People Do the First Hour of Their Workday

It’s hard to argue with any advice from Branson - he is a machine!

I really agree with his point about exercise and fitness. I wouldn’t say that I’m a model of fitness, but I definitely see the connection! If I had to choose one writer to read about productivity and success, it would have to be Tony Robbins because he does a great job aggregating other writers’ work on the topic.

Exercise and fitness is another one I have to work on. As they say, it does affect your outlook in life. It helps in creating that positive mood all throughout the day. I have yet to experience that. Thanks for stressing that out. Got to check on Tony Robbins too.

A friend of mine spends the first hour of his day organizing his team. He does this via Skype (his team are based overseas)

He does $10M a year.

If you’re doing everything yourself, becoming successful is going to be a continual struggle.

i actually look forward to have a nice cup of tea at the morning and then need the newspaper and after that all the rest work starts. but i’m not a successful man so i really glad to know all those things from you guys. thanks.

As early as I hit the office, I just grab some coffee munch some goodies in front of my desk and check the task list… I tried carefully to strictly follow the list though it’s really hard at first. Those task lists helps me to lessen my stress during the day… time management really helps a lot, and at the end of the day… most of the hard task are done…

I usually run around trying to brush my teeth, take a shower, feed the cat and make breakfast - all at the same time, because I overslept by 40 mins.

So, my first hour of the day - 2/3 sleep + 1/3 hysteria. Works out great.

LOL. Hilarious but happens to me sometimes. I can’t imagine how fast I move when I am running late. Love that adrenaline rush.

Yes you are right health is wealth and exercise make the health.

Perhaps, but that would be an outlier and contrary to what most thought leaders and anecdotal information suggests.

First thing I used to do in the morning was to check my Mobile , inboxes and social networking sites.
