00:06:41,901 don't have to know all the answers, 198 00:06:42,235 --> 00:06:44,237 but the act of creating 199 00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:45,872 a morning and nighttime routine 200 00:06:45,872 --> 00:06:47,273 and trying to execute it 201 00:06:47,273 --> 00:06:49,242 every day in a 24 hour period 202 00:06:50,042 --> 00:06:52,245 will eventually create 203 00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:54,280 so many

But then you will end up having 207 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,789 that North Star in your life, 208 00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:05,191 that macro view. 209 00:07:05,191 --> 00:07:07,560 So first, things are two ways 210 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,462 you can break down your morning and nighttime routine. 211 00:07:09,829 --> 00:07:11,030 I do it on paper, 212 00:07:11,731 --> 00:07:12,732 and a lot of people 213 00:07:12,732 --> 00:07:14,400 I know also do it on the iPhone. 214 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,903 So the first thing you could do on the iPhone is create 215 00:07:16,903 --> 00:07:18,104 your morning and nighttime routine, 216 00:07:19,672 --> 00:07:21,040 then your copy 217 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,942 and pasting it below. 218 00:07:22,942 --> 00:07:24,677 So you write out in your iPhone notes, 219 00:07:25,044 --> 00:07:26,913 morning routine, nighttime routine. 220 00:07:26,913 --> 00:07:28,114 Or it could use AI 221 00:07:28,648 --> 00:07:30,316 Whatever resonates with you. 222 00:07:31,083 --> 00:07:32,385 Then you're going to copy it 223 00:07:32,385 --> 00:07:34,887 and paste the same thing 224 00:07:34,887 --> 00:07:36,456 you wrote below. 225 00:07:36,622 --> 00:07:39,992 So if two versions of here's your morning and nighttime 226 00:07:39,992 --> 00:07:42,628 routine, your iPhone notes, and then you copy and paste it 227 00:07:42,628 --> 00:07:44,263 as the identical morning 228 00:07:44,263 --> 00:07:45,765 and nighttime routine below it. 229 00:07:46,599 --> 00:07:48,000 And then when you wake up 230 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,368 every morning, you delete 231 00:07:50,736 --> 00:07:51,237 the copy 232 00:07:51,237 --> 00:07:53,673 and pasted version, like when you've gone for a walk 233 00:07:53,673 --> 00:07:54,841 or had your vitamins or 234 00:07:55,174 --> 00:07:56,442 or had some sunshine 235 00:07:56,442 --> 00:07:57,810 or stretch, you delete it 236 00:07:57,810 --> 00:07:59,979 and then you copy and paste again for the next day. 237 00:07:59,979 --> 00:08:01,647 So that's the most eco friendly 238 00:08:01,647 --> 00:08:03,850 version of how to do this. 239 00:08:03,850 --> 00:08:05,384 I do something a little bit different. 240 00:08:05,384 --> 00:08:06,986 I really just have to do this 241 00:08:06,986 --> 00:08:08,721 for survival purposes 242 00:08:09,088 --> 00:08:10,857 of having these four extremely 243 00:08:10,857 --> 00:08:12,058 young kids. 244 00:08:12,124 --> 00:08:14,660 Ethan is eight, Elliot is seven, 245 00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:16,128 and the twins are four and a half 246 00:08:16,128 --> 00:08:18,264 and having them all 247 00:08:18,264 --> 00:08:19,866 go to school, having them, 248 00:08:19,866 --> 00:08:21,267 you know, whether it's school, whether it's camp, 249 00:08:21,267 --> 00:08:23,035 getting them out the door by 730, 250 00:08:23,035 --> 00:08:24,237 it's a lot. 251 00:08:25,471 --> 00:08:26,739 So I use a piece of paper 252 00:08:26,739 --> 00:08:28,140 and I do photocopy it. 253 00:08:28,140 --> 00:08:29,675 So I write out my morning 254 00:08:29,675 --> 00:08:31,477 routine, which deeply 255 00:08:31,477 --> 00:08:33,846 involves getting my children ready for school 256 00:08:34,013 --> 00:08:36,949 lunches, dressing them, breakfast, 257 00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:39,719 what they need, and I photocopy it. 258 00:08:39,719 --> 00:08:42,121 And then every day, as soon as I wake up, I'm 259 00:08:42,121 --> 00:08:43,389 the first one up in the house. 260 00:08:43,623 --> 00:08:45,091 I start crossing off 261 00:08:45,091 --> 00:08:46,425 what I can and can't do 262 00:08:46,425 --> 00:08:48,528 related to that morning routine, and it is 263 00:08:48,895 --> 00:08:50,463 the greatest part of my day. 264 00:08:50,463 --> 00:08:51,631 It is so comforting, 265 00:08:51,964 --> 00:08:53,399 even if I can only do half of it. 266 00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:54,800 I like just crossing off the things 267 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,936 where, okay, I don't have a lot of time.

--> 00:15:55,487 what resonates with you, 480 00:15:55,487 --> 00:15:57,289 what is practical for you, 481 00:15:57,423 --> 00:15:59,558 what sounds like oh, I would really like that. 482 00:15:59,558 --> 00:16:01,026 Like I do make very short 483 00:16:01,026 --> 00:16:03,729 to do lists, and then I try to time 484 00:16:03,729 --> 00:16:06,131 block it in throughout that seven day window. 485 00:16:06,532 --> 00:16:07,833 Or if there's a little bit 486 00:16:08,133 --> 00:16:09,468 more monthly tasks, 487 00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:11,437 I kind of write that on the big paper calendar 488 00:16:11,437 --> 00:16:12,638 and then try to time block it 489 00:16:12,638 --> 00:16:14,440 into the individual days. 490 00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:16,642 It is so deeply rewarding 491 00:16:16,642 --> 00:16:19,244 that I have dedicated so much of my free time. 492 00:16:19,244 --> 00:16:20,846 Whenever I'm doing donations 493 00:16:20,846 --> 00:16:22,381 or volunteering or lectures, 494 00:16:22,681 --> 00:16:25,017 I always talk about time blocking and the idea 495 00:16:25,017 --> 00:16:26,285 of the compound effect. 496 00:16:26,652 --> 00:16:28,554 The idea that these very small 497 00:16:28,921 --> 00:16:31,523 micro moments can compound 498 00:16:32,458 --> 00:16:33,792 greatly by the end of the year. 499 00:16:33,792 --> 00:16:35,294 And we've spot we've spoken about that 500 00:16:35,294 --> 00:16:36,662 in the other podcasts. 501 00:16:36,729 --> 00:16:37,763 I think we said 502 00:16:38,931 --> 00:16:40,833 five minutes of stretching a day 503 00:16:41,066 --> 00:16:43,302 at the end of a year is 30 hours, 504 00:16:43,602 --> 00:16:45,371 and your body will thank you 505 00:16:45,671 --> 00:16:47,373 for those 30 hours of stretching. 506 00:16:47,373 --> 00:16:49,975 Then if you didn't do it, and maybe just stretch the first 507 00:16:49,975 --> 00:16:51,510 five minutes of every show 508 00:16:51,510 --> 00:16:52,711 you watch that year. 509 00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:55,114 So again, 510 00:16:55,114 --> 00:16:58,917 it is my wish that you will try out 511 00:16:58,917 --> 00:17:00,119 consistently 512 00:17:00,753 --> 00:17:02,254 anything that resonates with you. 513 00:17:02,755 --> 00:17:03,956 Making it to do lists, 514 00:17:03,956 --> 00:17:05,491 adding it into a piece of paper, 515 00:17:05,491 --> 00:17:06,759 just having a to do list 516 00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:07,960 with a big paper calendar. 517 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,461 Just having your morning and nighttime 518 00:17:09,461 --> 00:17:10,829 routine in your iPhone notes 519 00:17:11,030 --> 00:17:12,064 coupled with your regular 520 00:17:12,064 --> 00:17:13,332 calendar on your iPhone. 521 00:17:13,866 --> 00:17:15,901 Each person is unique and only 522 00:17:15,901 --> 00:17:17,403 you know what is best for you. 523 00:17:17,903 --> 00:17:20,939 But I want to share that 524 00:17:20,939 --> 00:17:23,675 it is absolutely worth it 525 00:17:24,276 --> 00:17:25,978 to create this structure. 526 00:17:25,978 --> 00:17:27,312 I do believe it creates 527 00:17:27,312 --> 00:17:28,714 a lot of peace, 528 00:17:28,981 --> 00:17:30,849 groundedness, and freedom in your life. 529 00:17:31,183 --> 00:17:34,053 I am able to be a much happier 530 00:17:34,553 --> 00:17:35,988 mom and parent. 531 00:17:36,055 --> 00:17:38,624 I am able to be so much more present 532 00:17:38,924 --> 00:17:40,492 in everything that I do. 533 00:17:40,726 --> 00:17:42,828 Because of these tools. 534 00:17:42,828 --> 00:17:44,163 Morning and nighttime routines, 535 00:17:44,163 --> 00:17:45,931 time blocking, compound effect, 536 00:17:46,365 --> 00:17:47,966 to-do list, paper calendar, 537 00:17:48,333 --> 00:17:50,702 and look, some months and seasons of our lives 538 00:17:50,702 --> 00:17:52,704 are going to be more difficult than others, but 539 00:17:52,704 --> 00:17:54,907 it is always worth the effort. 540 00:17:55,107 --> 00:17:56,875 If your used to time blocking, you got 541 00:17:57,142 --> 00:17:58,043 you know, life 542 00:17:58,043 --> 00:18:00,512 kind of got away from you and you want to try it again. 543 00:18:00,512 --> 00:18:02,614 I absolutely encourage it. 544 00:18:02,981 --> 00:18:04,183 And our team, 545 00:18:04,616 --> 00:18:05,617 the MaryRuth Organics team, 546 00:18:05,617 --> 00:18:06,852 and myself were always here.
