Routines help. There are days of strength and days of weakness. Days when you have fire in your bones, days when you feel deflated. Routines help with synchronization. There are days I wake up feeling as if my day was aimless. But when I remember my routine, I have something I can use to coordinate myself, otherwise I will feel I wasted my day. These routines are definitely defined and preplanned. You cannot be creating one on the day you need it. It just reminds you that there is work to be done, deliverables to be delivered. It keeps me in check. It takes 69 days to create a habit. Consistency is mighty. The results are beautiful if you do the discipline. I am always reminded by Robin Sharma in his book, the 5 am club, that "successful people (like me) have formed the habit of doing things that failures don't like to do. Top producers make it a habit to do the high-value activities that average ones don't feel like doing, even when they don't feel like doing them.”
