So, if you’re tired of hitting snooze and ready to wake up to a life you’re excited about, keep reading. The Miracle Morning might just be the thing that helps you create the life you’ve always dreamed of.
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:
Physically– the average person is exhausted. Most people can barely make it through the day without relying on a few cups of coffee just to keep going.
Mentally and emotionally– prescription drugs are being consumed every day to cope with issues like anxiety, depression, and other mental health struggles.
Financially– many people aren’t earning as much as they’d like because they’re spending too much, not saving enough, and facing money struggles.
Elrod points out, “95% of our society isn’t living the life they want.” This means we need to figure out what went wrong for them, so we don’t make the same mistakes.
IN THIS SUMMARY: You’ll discover the 6 simple morning habits that helped Hal Elrod completely turn his life around, get out of debt, and come back stronger than ever. Also how to beat procrastination and tackling life head-on.
Let’s jump into it.
The Miracle Life S.A.V.E.R.S are six simple habits that can seriously improve your life and help you get the results you want.
Let’s take a look at these habits and see how they can help you become the person you want to be—so you can attract the right things, create what you want, and live a lot more smoothly and easily.
“Silence is the first practice of the Life S.A.V.E.R.S.,” explains Elrod, “it is the most significant of all the steps.”
Silence is the best way to reduce stress while increasing self-awareness immediately.
Here are some great silences inducing activities you can choose from:
Meditation, prayer, reflection, deep breathing, gratification. Sit in silence: Praying, meditating (thanking God, The Universe, Source energy, etc. for blessing you with this day.)
“Affirmation is a powerful reminder of the unlimited potential that is within you.” Says Elrod, It allows you to develop the mindset (thoughts, beliefs, focus) needed to reach the next level.
Jots down what you want out of life. Who are you committed to being? And what you are committing to do to make it happen.
Your affirmations are either helping you or holding you back, explains to Elrod.
It all depends on how you use them.
If you don’t intentionally choose and design your affirmations, you might end up replaying the same fears, doubts, and limitations from your past.
Step 1: Define What You Really Want
The purpose of written affirmation is to program your mind with the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors vital for creating and sustaining your levels of success.
You can organize your affirmations according to the areas you want to focus on improving the most. (e.g., health/fitness, mindset, emotions, finances, relationships, spirituality, etc.)
Clarify, and write down what you really want—your ideal vision for your life—in each area.
Step 2: Why You Want It?
Explain why all of the things you want are important to you.
Being crystal clear on your deepest whys will give you an unstoppable purpose.
Step 3: Whom Are You Committed to Being to Create It?
Key reminders:
Step 4: What You’re Committed to Doing to Attain It?
In essence, what actions can you take consistently to make your vision/ ideal life a reality?
Step 5: Add Inspirational Quotes.
To maximize productivity, schedule 3–5-hour blocks or half-days to focus on one activity or project, rather than switch from tasks every 60 minutes. This will improve your results and quality of life.
Visualization, also known as creative visualization or mental rehearsal. It is a powerful tool for generating positive results in your outer world.
Use your imagination to create mental pictures of specific behaviors and outcomes of your desire.
Create a vision board.
Shift your focus for 10 min from image to image, pause at each one, close your eyes and feel it already manifested.
Note: Frequently used by athletes to enhance their performances, visualization is the process of imagining exactly what you want to achieve or attain. By the same token, mentally rehearse what you’ll need to do to achieve or attain it.
If you want to maintain good health and increase your energy, you must exercise constantly.
Morning exercise should be a staple in your daily rituals.
When you exercise for even a few minutes every morning, it significantly boosts your energy, enhances your health, improves self-confidence and emotional well-being.
Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body and prayer is to the soul. We become the books we read. –Matthew Kelly.
Reading is a fast track that can help you transform any area of your life.
It is one of the most immediate methods for acquiring the knowledge, ideas, and strategies you need to achieve Level 10 success in any area of your life.
Read a minimum of 10 pages a day, then choose a few ideas that you’re excited to implement or practice for that particular day.
Scribing is the final practice in the Life S.A.V.E.R.S. Generally speaking, it is just another word for Journaling.
The Scribing element of your Miracle Morning enables you to document your insights, ideas, breakthroughs, realizations, successes, and lessons learned. In addition, any areas of opportunity, personal growth, or improvement.
The simplest act of writing down the things you’re grateful for and other life events will surely boost your mood and spirit.
It’s been said that nobody actually likes waking up early, but everyone loves the feeling of having woken up early. Kind of like exercising—many of us struggle to get to the gym, but we love the feeling of having gone to the gym.
Here are the five simple snooze-proof steps to making waking up in the morning—even early in the morning—easier than ever before.
This is the most important step. Remember: your first thought in the morning is usually the last thought you had before you went to bed.
As soon as the alarm clock sounds, open your eyes with enthusiasm and excitement to get out of bed. 🙂
The key is to consciously decide to actively and mindfully create a positive expectation for the morning. Download The Morning “Bedtime Affirmation” if you need help with this one at www.TMMBook.com
Simply forcing yourself to get out of bed to turn off the alarm clock can help you stay awake.
This simple act will increase your wake-up motivation from a level 1 to a 2.
Elrod explained that the point is to do these mindless activities for the first few minutes and give your body time to wake up.
This simple activity will increase your wake-up motivation from a 2 to a level 3 or a level 4.
The objective is to rehydrate your body and mind as fast as possible.
After 6-8 hours without water, the body is naturally dehydrated, which often causes sluggishness and fatigue. When you drink a glass of water to re-hydrate yourself, your wake-up motivation level goes from a level 3 or 4 to a level 4 or 5.
Some people prefer to start their day by jumping into the shower, but Hal believes we should earn our morning shower by breaking a sweat first.
After you’ve gone through steps 1 to 4, take a few minutes to start exercising. Perhaps it’s a 10 min yoga or 10 push-ups every morning; make it a habit.
It will position you at a peak level. In addition, your mood will increase dramatically.
To wrap it up, The Miracle Morning isn’t about some magic formula that will instantly fix your life. It’s about starting your day with intention and small habits that build momentum over time. If you commit to these simple practices—S.A.V.E.R.S.—you’ll start to see shifts in your mindset, productivity, and overall happiness.
Remember It’s not about being perfect; it’s about showing up for yourself every morning and taking control of your day.
So, why not give it a try?
Your best mornings could lead to your best life.
