There are many possible reasons why highachievers and super-perky people get so much
done, but I become infatuated with the early
morning.
A few years ago I found myself watching successful people accomplish an incredible amount and
I began asking some critical questions:
What is 5 am?
First, 5 AM is a block of time each morning when
life is calm, serene, and peaceful. In the early
morning hours there are few distractions, the
birds are just beginning to sing, and life moves
at a slower pace.
Secondly, 5 AM is a symbol for taking full control
of your life. When you use your minutes as
wisely as you use your money, you reach a pinnacle of achievement and fulfillment that few people ever do.
Finally, I believe that 5 AM can become your
most precious asset.
When you guard your time and prioritize your
tasks;
When you focus on developing incredible energy and producing optimal health;
When you fully embrace living your life on purpose in order to achieve your grandest goals . . .

Being intentional simply means living on purpose. There are no accidents. Life is planned on
paper, on purpose, every day, without exception.
Is it accurate to call living on purpose (or intentionality) a miracle? I think so. Heres why:
When you decide ahead of time how your day
will go;
When you write down your goals, dreams, and
aspirations;

The Epiphany
Beyond living each and every day on purpose,
the more authentic miracle may lie in the
epiphany itself. The epiphany I am referring to
is the one when you realize that you are 100% responsible for your entire life.
Everything that happens in you, around you, and
to you is because of you. [Tweet That]
Realizing your life is in your hands is incredibly
empowering, not scary.
When you take control of your life and everything that happens in it you will undoubtedly
experience The 5 AM Miracle.
5 AM Works
How do I know that 5 AM is so effective at transforming your day? I live it.
I have been consistently exploding out of bed at
5 AM for years and I don't intend to stop. With a
pre-determined, prioritized to-do list in hand
and an effectivemorning routine I callThe Daily
Dominator, I can get more done by 8 AM than
most people accomplish all day.

The next few pages of this book contain actionable advice and reveal surprising insights that
will help you bounce out of bed and dominate
your day with gusto.
Get prepared to join The 5 AM Club - an exclusive group that allows anyone to join, knowing
very few will.
The Daily Dominator is a compilation of strategies based on my own experiences and successes
with early morning routines. You can pick and
choose which elements you want to include.
I recommend adopting as many as possible because the more effective strategies you have
working for you, the greater the benefits that
you willreceive.

The Daily
Dominator
1.Explode Out of Bed @ 5:00 AM
When your alarm clock goes off - get up. Don't
hit the snooze button. In fact, I recommendbuying a clock without one.
If you like hitting the snooze (waking up slowly)
and that strategy works well for you consistently, then you should stick with it.
However, I strongly advise against snoozing at
all. Train your body to get up and go. It can be
done. I promise you.

My morning workouts are short and intense. I either do 3-mile trail run or a 2017
Standing Desk
This is a topic I love to discuss because it intrigues so many people. I built a standing desk a
few years ago and the results have been outstanding! (get it? haha!)
But seriously, I have more sustained energy all
day because I stand. I was initially inspired to
make this switch from sitting to standing because I learned that sitting causes considerably
more heart attacks.
My experience has shown me that standing is
the way to go.
I experiment frequently with morning vs. evening reading, yoga, meditation, and prayer.
I have found that the best time for these activities is right after I wake up and before my morning workout.
My brain is more open to reading, contemplating, and thinking about new topics at that
hour because I am not distracted by anything
else, yet.

The remaining items are now the most important and urgent tasks to be completed.
I use an app on my Mac and iPhone called
Nozbe. It is my dedicated task manager and it
keeps my entire life organized.

This is a lifestyle.
