The 4 AM Rule: Why Successful People Wake Up Early
“My daily
rituals: I wake up at 4 AM and sleep at 10 PM. In the morning, I create
knowledge. In the afternoon, I acquire knowledge. In the evening, I eliminate
irrelevant information. In the night, I prepare for the next day.” ―Professor
M.S. Rao
When you
look at successful people and high achievers including Tim Cook and Oprah
Winfrey, they wake up at 4 AM. They are early risers. There are several
advantages associated with setting a daily morning routine. You start the day
with energy and enthusiasm. You unlock your potential. You become creative and
solve problems. You become positive and proactive. You are more focused and
concentrate on your tasks effectively. You remain calm and clear-headed. You become
productive because you are free from distractions. You leverage your brain’s
functioning capacity and make decisions smartly. You overcome your weaknesses
and leverage your strengths.
I served in
the Indian Air Force. I cultivated the habit of waking up at 4 AM from the military.
I undertake three tasks every day. I prioritize one main task to be executed that
is urgent and important. I feed my subconscious mind in the previous day about
the tasks to be executed the next day. I have the entire day under my control.
I am very creative and explore new ideas. As an author, I write in the morning.
I am highly focused. I am clear-headed. My mind is capable of deep and profound
learning. I am awake and alert. I don't multitask. I avoid social media. My
energy levels are at my peak. I remain calm and relaxed at this time. There
will not be any distractions. I have a high positive attitude. I am confident
without any anxiety.
Successful
people minimize bad habits and maximize good habits. They have set a pattern of
life. Precisely, here are some qualities of the high achievers and successful
people who wake up at 4 AM―creativity, positive attitude, productivity,
performance, time management, focus, concentration, positive energy, and
enthusiasm.
Takeaway: The early
risers have a more positive attitude than the night owls. Therefore, wake up at
4 AM to keep your day going with energy and enthusiasm. Remember that a disciplined
morning leads to a disciplined day. So, be disciplined to wake up at 4 AM. A
strong and consistent routine can support a successful life. To conclude,
decide how and when you want to wake up.
