@semigrownkid LOL, who can say no to a cup of coffee in the morning.
typically the first thing I do at the start of my workday is check my emails and calendar for any urgent messages or appointments, and then prioritize my tasks for the day, ensuring alignment with my overall goals and deadlines.
@cgriffin_2000 May I ask how long this usually takes you?
Checking all messages)
@serhii_uspenskyi Me too. However, I often find myself distracted by notification emails from subscribed newsletters, which wastes a significant amount of time every morning. I am currently try to adjust my daily routine to increase productivity.
COFFEE. COFFEE. Coffee.
@akanksha_hunts I used to drink at least 3 cups of β a day, but since my mother-in-law told me that this could easily cause calcium loss, I have switched to a maximum of 2 a day and start to taking calcium supplements.π
@zhao_naomi Thank you so much for sharing that information with me! I should start with some changes to my coffee consumption and consult for calcium supplements too. ππ
@diana_iun I appreciate your perspective, and honesty. However, A cup of morning coffee is something I just cannot start without. π
Meditation before I start reviewing my to do list which was prepared the previous day so as to have a second more sober look at the day's priorities
@apollon440 This approach feels very worth trying. Do you use any apps to assist with meditation?
@zhao_naomi I use muse headset which assists in calming me down with guided meditation sessions accompanied by serene sounds of nature (such as waves, underwater sounds or waterfalls) or when in hurry, I use some guided meditation sessions that I have saved from youtube
Coffee > reading > journaling > workout > start working

At the beginning of my workday, I kick things off by planning out my day ahead. Following that, I dive into checking emails, direct messages, and any submissions from potential clients. It's crucial to ensure a prompt response and stay on top of communication.
breakfast (without any electronic devices nearby)
then, sitting in front of a laptop all day :)
@chris_uelzi I completely understand that once people start working in front of the computer, it's easy to sit for several hours or even a whole day. However, this is really bad for your spine, even if you're sitting on a so-called ergonomic chair. So please make sure to stand up and walk around every 1-2 hours, stretch your waist and relax. Set reminders for this.
I check slack and my emails and then prioritize my tasks for the day.
