Morning Routine

Maintained a consistent morning routine, wake time, movement, fueling, preparation, every weekday for 60 consecutive days.

The idea

The morning routine has to be small enough to survive bad days. Three things, ten minutes total, not an hour. Sixty consecutive days only works if the bar is low. The point isn't the workout. It's the proof your kid can do the same thing every morning without arguing with themselves about whether to skip it. That muscle, once built, applies to everything else.

Steps
  1. Design a 10-minute routine. Three components max.
  2. Do it before any negotiation happens.
  3. Track 60 weekdays. Mark hits and misses honestly.
  4. Don't expand. Consistency, not ambition.
What counts

60 consecutive weekdays of a tracked morning routine. A simple log is plenty.
