The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8AM)

Aligning The Miracle Morning With Your Goals &
Dreams
Most Miracle Morning practitioners and high achievers use The Miracle
Morning to enhance their focus on their immediate goals and their most
significant dreams. This is especially true for those they’ve been putting off,
or haven’t been making time for—such as starting a business or writing a
book. The Life S.A.V.E.R.S. are ideal for improving your ability to stay

focused on your goals and accelerating the rate at which you make progress
towards your dreams.
For example, when you create your affirmations, make sure that they are
in alignment with your goals and dreams, and that they clarify what you will
need to think, believe, and do to achieve them, so they reinforce your
unwavering commitment to follow through. Reading them daily will keep you
focused on your highest priorities and the steps you need to take to achieve
them.
When you are doing your morning Visualization, visualize yourself
effortlessly enjoying the process of achieving your goals (like I did while
writing this book) and keep a clear picture of what it will look like once
achieved. Remember to involve all of your senses—see, feel, taste, touch and
even smell every detail of your vision and your ideal outcomes. The more
vivid your vision is, the more effective it will be in increasing your desire and
motivation to take the necessary steps towards your goals each day.
Overcoming Procrastination: Do the Worst, First
One of the most effective strategies for overcoming habitual
procrastination and maximizing your productivity is to start working on your
most important—or least enjoyable—tasks, first thing in the morning.
In his bestselling book Eat That Frog, the legendary productivity expert
Brian Tracy shows how getting things done in the morning leads to mental
rewards that can take us to great heights in our lives. It is the idea that doing
the hard task first (“frog eating”) and getting it out of the way creates
momentum and makes the rest of the day more productive.
The purpose of The Miracle Morning is more about waking up with
purpose—combining the benefits of early rising and personal development—
and isn’t so much concerned with which activities you do, as long as the
activities you choose are proactive and help you improve your inner world
(yourself) and your outer world (your life).
In this short chapter I’ll give you some ideas and strategies for how you
can design your Miracle Morning and adjust it to fit your lifestyle so it adds
value to your life and helps you achieve your most important goals. I’ll also
include examples of different real-life Miracle Mornings, designed by
individuals—from entrepreneurs to stay-at-home moms, to high school and
college students—to fit their unique schedules, priorities and lifestyles.
