Today on the podcast, we have Michael Chernow, Creatures of Habit. What's going on, brother? What up, man? Thanks for having me. It's been a long time coming.
I know. I know. We've been on the DM text chain for a minute now.
Yeah. Well, it's good to have you down here in Austin, Texas from upstate New York. I bought a pair of Toccova boots, man. Oh, you did?
Dude, I had to. Which ones did you get? I didn't go crazy. I got these guys. They look good, man. Yeah, dude. I'm stoked on them. I've wanted a pair. You know, the PBR comes to Albany every year. And so we always take the kids to go see the bull riding. Yeah. And every time I'm there, I'm like, God damn it. I need a pair of cowboy boots. And my wife's an equestrian. So my wife is on a horse every day. And, you know, I'll get there. I'll get on a horse. But, you know, it's fun. And in Texas, I was like, all right, this is the time. This is the place.
You got to. I got to wear boots. I was driving into work yesterday and this new Aaron Watson song popped up. Aaron Watson's a Texas country artist, real Texas country artist. And just like his music, it was that perfect song. All I wanted to do was throw a pair of cowboy boots in on going to back Texas country road, put the windows down and just fly. Just fly, man.
Especially in that truck, dude. Cause that, that truck, that thing is incredible. Have you seen the old truck? That's what I'm talking about. The 74?
Oh my gosh. That is so cool. Yeah. I love it. It's a, It's been a project that I've wanted to bring to life for a long time now. Came across the perfect truck and it just got delivered last week. The kids love it. I love it. My wife's afraid of it.
But it's all good things. Dude, I mean, when I pulled up and I saw that, I saw you post about it last week. And I was just like, man, that's a good looking truck. It's fun. The color too. Like the whole spec, the whole project. I mean, is it all gutted? Is it...
fully restored. It's fully restored, but it still drives like an old truck. I mean, speedometer doesn't work really well. Fuel gauge doesn't work really well. Everything's manual. And I was dropping my daughter off at school last week in it. And I wanted to get back in the truck after dropping her off and to unlock it, you got to put the key in the door, turn it. And this woman was passing me saying, I haven't seen one of those.
And
Where you got to actually open it with a key. And I said, do you mean the truck? She said, no, you're using a key to open your door. I guess you're right. Yeah, totally. So from my understanding, you, like many of us, myself included, are a creature of habit. I think a lot of high achievers are creatures of habit. And also from my understanding, your morning routine is pretty robust and built out. I thought it'd be a good way to set the stage for what is to come in this conversation. What is your morning routine? What's it look like? What's it consist of? How long does it take? Share it with me. Sure.
So I actually have two morning routines. I have the non-negotiables, which get done no matter what, no matter where I am, no matter how tired, no matter, you know. The non-negotiable morning routine is a little bit more concise. My ideal morning routine, meaning I'm in my flow, I'm at home, I'm not traveling, you know, I've got all my tools.
