Don't do the bed.
I would say start as early as you can with some semblance of a discipline act.
If you don't want to do the bed, drink a 16-ounce glass of water in the morning before you have a cup of coffee.
Not many people enjoy doing that, especially if it's not flavored with something.
But I tell you what, I implemented that and it's kind of amazing how much better you feel when you hydrate a little bit after you sleep with your mouth tape, of course, on your sleep metrics because you have to have a competition with your wife on who's winning the sleep score.
Not a big deal.
And I hate being prescriptive.
And so just broadly, I tell people to pick the choice as often as possible that is slightly more difficult.
And the reason why the bed doesn't work for some people is that you have somebody you care about deeply still sleeping on the other side.
And maybe your day starts at a time where they're not ready to get out of bed, right?
So you don't want to negatively impact somebody else's life.
So you can have this, I have to do this to get started.
To me, it's the small stuff that nobody sees that makes the biggest difference in the world.
It's the choice to have the water before your coffee.
It's the choice to the night before you go to bed, if you know you're going to have a busy day,
meal prep, or if you're gonna have a breakfast that is other than ready to eat or complicated, do all the prep work beforehand.
So it makes it, you know what I mean?
It's just the small things that, great posting on Instagram, look, I'm cutting up asparagus so I can put it into my omelet.
But in the next morning when it's ready to go and you actually have a healthy breakfast over something far less healthy, the difference in your life and the difference in your energy and your thought process and all those things continue to build.
I try to get people or advocate sweat or get as close to sweat as you can once a day.
