Below are the must do things in the morning for your day to be incredible just the way you like it to be in the 24 hours.
- MAKE YOUR DAMN BED!
One in three guys regularly leaves his bed sheets disheveled, according to the National Sleep Foundation. Don’t be one of them: Minor as it seems, reconstructing that rumpled bedding represents the first small task of your morning.
Completing it makes you feel more accomplished, which can set you up for a day of getting stuff done and kicking ass.
- SNIFF YOUR WAY AWAKE
A morning shower wakes you up. But what scent you wash with can have a big effect on your mood for the rest of the day,
Research suggests lavender can help you relax, mint can stimulate your brain, and citrus can reduce stress. Scrub and sniff away.

- LIGHTEN UP YOUR NEWS
In a study earlier this year, Gielan’s team partnered with Arianna Huffington and found that watching just 3 minutes of negative news in the morning makes you 27 percent more likely to be unhappy 6 to 8 hours later.
On the flipside, “starting your day with a solution-focused, inspiring story tells your brain your behavior matters in the face of a challenge,” says Gielan. “This sets you up for success.”
