Douglas James's Morning Routine
One of the first things that Douglas James does when he wakes up is make his own bed. This small ritual gives him a successful start. He then writes down three goals for the day and three things that he is grateful for. Once he is done journalling his thoughts and goals, he goes out in his garden and meditates in nature for 15 minutes. Meditation, he says, fills him with the focus and clarity he needs to ace the rest of the day.
To fuel his morning energy, he kick-starts his day with a cup of black coffee mixed with some MCT oil. He also ensures that he does not check his phone immediately after he wakes up. According to him, a mind that is clear, well-rested, and at peace helps us think clearly, make the right decisions, and focus on our work throughout the day.
His Take On The Importance Of Physical Exercise
Douglas James believes that it is important to be prepared both mentally as well as physically to excel in business or whatever field we're in. That's the reason why he never misses his daily 2-hour long fitness regimen. His exercise routine consists of a mix of cardiovascular training, weight training, and meditation.
Douglas James is not the first person to highlight the benefits of physical exercise on our minds and its impact on our day. Exercise releases endorphins, popularly known as happy hormones, which regulate our mood and helps us to push away negative thoughts.
