How to ACTUALLY wake up early: A “Miracle Morning” Routine
I hit snooze my whole life, until now. With the help of this book, "The Miracle Morning" that's since turned around. In this video, I break down the best practices to actually achieve waking up early, and what I found to help best with that. If you enjoy it, consider subscribing for similar content in the future.

life hack - The quote on the first hour of the day "if I strive to make that first hour optimally productive, the rest of the day tends to follow suit" can be applied to Mondays too - if I crank out work and am super focused and productive on Monday it sets me up for a strong week. Stay away from the "I hate mondays" crowd lol
The hardest part is getting out of bed. I think the main reason you don't is that you don't have a good enough reason to. One great takeaway from this video is to set your intentions for the next day and contemplate that goal before you drift off to sleep. If that goal matters to you enough, you will definitely find a reason to wake up early 💯🙂
Yes I completely agree! Thanks for sharing Aakash
"I think the main reason you don't is that you don't have a good enough reason to" - wise words and pure gold
Watch the reason to isn’t too strong. I’ve had problems with insomnia when I’m so anxious to get to sleep because I know I want to get up early the next day to train.
Reading your comment I envisaged you as some semi-BS-wiseman-motivational-speaker youtuber. One click later... I was right :-) amazing. p.s.: before you leave mean reply may I remind you the title of one of your videos: 5 SIMPLE REASONS TO *STOP CARING* WHAT OTHERS THINK.

You seem like a cool dude, Hal! I'm gonna get your book. :)
I can't comprehend the necessity of waking up at 5 a.m. In my country, it's mainly those with lower incomes who rise at this hour. I personally cherish the nights, as I typically go to bed at 4 a.m., wake up at 10:30 a.m., and feel quite content. After midnight, I relish the solitude, which allows me to focus on my projects, meditate, go for a run, and so on. I believe that everyone should tailor their lifestyle according to their preferences.

Hey, KZhead algorithm...BLOW THIS VIDEO UP!!! Brilliant editing!!
Thanks Maria! Means a lot :)
The KZhead god's listened & blew it up
Well it was on my recommended
@@talwarner same
It's working
I feel like adding 2 more things to consider: 1) you can't wake up early if you don't go to bed early. You should also have a night routine that helps you relax (take a hot shower, read, no phone one hour before going to bed) 2) If you are used to waking up at 11am it is unlikely that you'll get up at 6am easily. I set the alarm a little bit earlier every week, like 15 minutes, so that I train my body slowly

@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist3 no Repent to God not Jesus, Jesus a prophet not a God
Shout out to that first point. If I got my eight hours, I'll generally wake up on my own.
This is my problem. I want to wake up early but im having a hard time to sleep early. I always sleep at around 2-4am
Go bed on 10 o clock otherwise you die soon and have heart problems take 8hr sleep not 7
I don't know how this video didn't get thousands of views yet, it's extremely perfect!, the editing and how you explained the book is incredible! even the music choice is perfect and you're replying and liking every comment which is so sweet, i hope you continue making these high quality videos I'm proud of you
Thanks a bunch man! Really appreciate your kind comment
So true, I can see how your channel will grow a lot in the coming week. Well done and keep going!
I explain it to you. He is new on KZhead that’s why. You must start by 0.
❤️❤️❤️
“The last thought before you sleep, is the first thought when you wake up in the morning” shows that he needs to practice more. I’ve never heard such bs before. So there atleast something to chew on. Check your vid before uploading it.
What helps for me is this routine: 1: Wake up (no social media etc) - Sit up straight and comfy and meditate, I like to use a 5-10 min session ✅ (longer ones make you tired again in my experience) 2: get up and make my bed (make it look as in a hotel) 3: I see the toilet and instantly go shower, I end up putting it on 10 degrees at the end which (trust me WAKES u up instantly) 4: Make a good breakfast, and drink a nice thee. 5: (up to you) This routine has changed my life, productvity, makes traveling cooler too. Instead of sleeping to long in a Hotel room. You now have the power and routine to Explore. Goodluck hehe Im passionate about this too, have a great day! Thanks for this video its very nicely put together 🙏🏻👌🏻
Thnks you so much 😘
@@nasriincaafinasriincaafi6948 you're welcome, just sharing some alter options because not everyone is the same 🙏🏻
I have received this insurance I'm awaiting for may change 🙏 thnks Alot😘
@@sensusmusic9343 yes sitting up and givin myself a few mins to half wake up is probs a good idea, just wish i had the motivation to make my bed lol
When I sit up after getting awake, meditate and then make the bed before seeing a toilet I would wet my bed every morning. The only thing that makes me get up early especially in winter is I have to go working (and not because I like that so much).
I finally nailed my waking up routine. I woke up consistently before 7am for 25 days straight!
good job
Jealous mate 😂😂
Good job man, that's a really really good thing
it’s good
that's honestly amazing, congrats
I’m lazy. I mean, i’ve always been. I was told I was "smart" when I was a kid which resulted in me never lifting a finger at school. I’m also terribly organized. Could barely walk into my room because of the amount of clothes on the floor. Now i’m in college, my flat was a mess, dirty dishes in the sink for days, always pushing everything to the last minute. No studying done, nothing. And for the past 5 days (it’s not much but you gotta start somewhere), i’ve been washing the dishes straight away. tidying up my shit, making myself go to the library (although to be fair, i’ve started that a couple weeks ago). Making my bead. I’m actually committed now. The last step is exercising regularly and waking up on time. I’m a work in process but i’ve been mad at myself for too long. I’ve been saying i’ll improve as if it was gonna happen on its own for too long. Enough is enough. I’m making a change and it’s happening right now. I’m sick of wasting my time. Sick of being ashamed and finding excuses. This might be the beginning of me completing the last steps. I’m thinking going for a mile every morning isn’t so far fetched. If I think about it, i’ll update this and we’ll see if i’ve gone back to my old ways. Biggest help so far has been deleting tiktok. Cheers everyone
Hey man curious about how your journey going hope you haven't gone back to your old ways I'm also starting mine and ik that going back to your old ways and starting again that loop is living hell so hope you stuck to it.
Great job on this video! I needed to hear every word. Awesome reminders and totally inspirational!

The video was relatable and very helpful currently on the same healing process and learning on self-development. THANK YOU for making the video.
Congratulations from Brazil, amazing content and excellent content !!!
Thank You
thank you for sharing david. I definitely needed this since I struggled the past couple of weeks with my morning motivation. I really like how honest you are about your own morning miracle and that you sometimes struggle with it still. I also like your suggestion to just take one minute for each excercise. I really want to try this from now on!
Thank you so much for this video! It is exactly what I needed. You are wise beyond your years. Congrats to coming to these realizations early in your life!
I’m going through exactly what you described in this video,it will help me a lot and also knowing I’m not the only one having those issues does help!! Thanks a lot and keep doing those content which have powerful value to people who struggle 🤝
Great video! My 17 year old son shared it with me after taking action on his own after watching. Thanks for adding content that reminds us we are not without agency to make our lives better with small actions. You’ve got something great here, please keep making films. I enjoyed the pacing, clear and calm speech and quality of editing and visuals.
Incredibly informative and helpful video. I have been struggling with the same issues and I think now I can be a morning person again.
Absolutely amazing! I honour the work you put into editing this video
this is honestly such a perfect video! the way you describe each and everything with such minute details makes it seem so much easier and doable. And the quotes you inserted in between are just awesome too! thankyou so much for this video :)
Right in the start something is already obvious: the editing is flawless. It's so much fun to watch this video!!
Your editing and everything you've put into your video is super pro quality. Keep at it, man! This video on its' own was super inspiring.
I love how smooth the edits are, thanks for sharing your experience!
Most informative, best edited video I have ever seen. Thanks! Keep doing these kind of videos!
Such an incredible video, I've been kinda demotivated lately and I have some trouble getting up. This video gives me some strenght, thank you.
this video made me cry.. because it’s so beautiful, real, hope-giving and yet so underrated. you’re amazing. you deserve not only more but the world !
This is the best video I’ve watched in a long time. Thank you!!
Bless the algorithm for bringing me here! Love your editing and your content 🥰
Thank you for making this video. I'll try to incorporate those activities into my morning routine and hopefully I'll have a more productive days and life.
Seriously, how do you not have a million subscribers yet?! When I clicked on your video, I thought you were a big KZheadr! Your quality is so good!! And the editing is insane!!!! Won’t be surprised when your channel grows fast!
The quality, the esthetic and the subject of this video is very much appreciated. Thanks a lot for this content !!
Wow David you are for sure one of the most talented creators out here on this platform! I am so happy that I’ve found your channel and this video! When you have 7 million subscribers I will be able to say that I’m part of the first 7K! Amazing work, really.
I only get about 7hrs of sleep everyday day, work construction about 60 hrs a week I used to wake up at the last possible minute felt tired, but I gave the miracle morning a try and now I wake up at 5am do all the steps go for a walk with my wife come home go to my garage and do body beast and I feel 1000% better energized the whole day happy positive thank you hal!!! Change my life brother Edit: before the miracle morning I'll sleep 9hrs and still felt like crap
David, this video was excellent! I’ve heard many people talk abut the Miracle Morning but your description was very simple yet extremely motivating.
Glad you found helpful Chandra! Thanks for sharing :)
Such a great video!! So glad I stumbled upon this. I’ve been struggling each morning to find motivation the earlier I wake up but I can now set these intentions! ✨ Thanks for sharing ✨
Have just got this book and this accompanying video really helps reinforce some of the techniques. I have NEVER been a morning person at all, but things are now changing :) Also wanted to say that this is the best channel I have seen for a while, top content and production which actually works, naturally delivered too, liked and subscribed! Thanks David
Hey David, this is a brilliantly crafted video. Huge congratulations for the interstellar quality of the content and presentation - fully deserves to get lots of views, and there's some great tips here as well for us night owls! Very nicely done! 👏
Thanks so much, James! Your feedback means a lot. Appreciate you man!
This editing is so awesome! Amazing content creator. Thanks for the valuable video man, I appreciate your discipline and for putting out what you've learned.😃
Thank you, Kaycee :)
Amazing video man! Truly amazing. The information, the edit, the plot, all of it. Inspiring. Keep up the good work! And thank you!
That intro is the story of my life…. I’m so glad I found your channel!
This video was the only one that was realistic and most motivating. In the mornings I literally cannot wake up no matter how far I put my alarm. This will help me out. I just made a powerpoint presentation and shared with my two bestfriends! The fact about what you say to yourself on daily basis is also very true. I look myself in the mirror and throughout the day and constantly tell myself that I am pretty and I am deserving, and in real life I hear two of these things many times a day. Cheers to healthier and happier US :) !!
I went from 8:30am to 5:30am easily, my secret? Putting my alarm in another room, forcing me to get out of bed and walk to it, the further away the better. works 95% of the time (winter is hard to not go back to warm bed for another 20 mins haha) Edit: I see that is step #2 :)
Love that! In the book he mentioned someone he knew bought a room heater on a timer the start 20 min or so before they woke up, so they're less tempted to go back under the covers haha Again, thanks for sharing :)
But to wake up with alarm is awful and you don’t want to. A good tip for the others to wake up naturally early. You need to go bed early at the same time everyday and after such a time you will automatically wake up early.
what would you do with the partner or a person (sibbling or so) sleeping in the same room?!
@@Kleineswiss19 Doesn't wake my partner much, she gets back to sleep immediately
Get a sun alarm, trust, it works! Basically mimics the sun rising.
The quality is amazing, the content even better... Wonderful!
AMAZING! DONT STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING!
Beautiful edit. I'm sure a lot of people can agree, this really helps us out and makes sense and for me actually fills in some missing pieces to my routine I'm trying to develop. Thank you so much!
The best inspiring video ever. I suffered alot through my routines so hopefully this will help 💛
You got it Habiba, keep trying!
Incredible video, Im honestly surprised how you "only" have 20k subs, your video quality is worth millions!
David,I can't thank you enough for this video, I have been struggling with this snoozing problems for months only to have most unproductive days.Thanks a lot :)
INCREDIBLE Video - the editing, the plot, the reflections. The amount of work you put into making this video is impressive. And what’s best is that it doesn’t seem like a “try-hard” effort - you come across as very genuine, transitions are smooth and the narration follows a logical order. I really keep my fingers crossed for the success of your channel! Keep up David and dream big
Appreciate that a ton! Seriously means a lot to me. Thanks again :)
Having something to get out of bed for is the key takeaway of this video for me and I couldn’t agree more. Just looking forward to doing life is enough motivation in itself sometimes, then everything else just comes naturally!
Thanks for your great storytelling. Message was very clear, I will never forget these tips 🙏🏽
David! Thank you for this video and all the great feedback! I learned a lot and just half way through the video I knew this is a realistic video I can follow to change my ways! ❤
Amazing editing. Love how much effort you put in this video.
Preciate that!
Hey David, Thank you for your time to create a high quality video. So value. I love the film, high quality images, content and sound. Your content sooo clearly about the problem - hit snooze until the last possible minute. And how you break down strategy to transformation behavior and explain specific enjoy the benefits of waking up early, BEST PRACTICES Thanks😁😁
Much appreciated! Happy you enjoyed it and found it helpful!
Bro this is one of the best videos that has added some value, i am gonna try my level best to change for the better and enjoy life.
the algorithm really did me a favour by suggesting this video ! i will try to use the advices you gave and just wanted to applaud you for the high quality of this video , great cinematography !
I love watching channels pop, and this is going to be one of them.
Thank you for this :)
Cool video! Read this book 2-3 years ago, tried smth and then forget about this, however now I`m striving for decent amount of energy in the morning. Kepp going and your reach thousands of subscribers, I believe in it!
Hopefully this helped! Thanks Konstantin
Bro your efforts are really visible in this video. I appreciate it keep going.
Wow such a high quality and well written video. And to think you only have 20k subs. You deserve more and I have a feeling you are gonna become much bigger. This is truly an inspiration. I'll try this morning miracle out.
This video is what I needed! I have been trying to get myself to wake up early and be productive but I always fail miserably. This video just gives the right tips that we all can increment in our morning routines and even though they are great they still help in taking positive steps towards something better for the future. Thanks a lot :)
Thanks for sharing Alma! Glad I could help, let me know if this helps at all!
i don't say this often at all but the editing of that intro - coloring, transitions, the chosen sound!! was so satisfying to my brain I had to replay it two more times. 🙌 so much talent
I agree with you 😊
Absolutely love the video! Thank you for the motivation, look forward to more content :)
This video was helpful AND well edited! I especially liked the intro. Well done! Subbed
i just want to mark that i have been here since 2.45k, this channel is going to grow so fast and i have so much faith in your channel!! this is really giving thomas frank vibes and i just know your channel is going to take off! good luck, and please keep creating these videos
Thank you rye! Greatly appreciate your kind words :)
I just binged watched all your videos bro! I enjoyed all of them!

Most helpful video I have watched on KZhead! Keep doing what you are doing 🌟
1 minute and 27 seconds into my first view of any of your videos, I became a subscriber. You have an excellent presence! Can’t wait to see more
Appreciate that, Cocoa!
literally I subscribed after one minute
@@maheenfatima1940 thanks Maheen!
Thank you for sharing this. I have trying to set a morning routine without success. This has given me a framework I can use without excuses to start.
I have just discovered your channel. I really needed to see this video today. I am finding myself going to bed later and later which has a knock on effect the next day when I just do not want to get out of bed. This video was so helpful. Thanks for posting.
Kudos and compliments 👏! Since 2009 I've crafted a morning routine of jumping out of bed, hydrating, meditation, prayer and reading. It is, indeed, transformative. My life needs me as much as I need to live.
This video honestly deserves at least 1 million views! Out of all videos which cover similar topics I actually learned something new from this one compared to all the others. I love the perspective of snoozing being equal to letting the universe know you don't want to get up. I have never thought about it that way, but it makes total sense. If you snooze you are in the frequency of not wanting to do stuff, which makes it harder to actually do stuff during the day. As well as falling into the trap of procrastination. I also loved the quote about the first hour of the day being productive. Thank you so much for this amazing video, it really shows how much work and love you've put into it! PS: I subscribed. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much, Evelien! I appreciate you taking the time to share such kind words :)

Man, this video is extremely well done, both content and editing wise, it really looks like it was made by a Professional content creator with millions of subscribers…needles to say, subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you, Lisa!
Good work on this video bro. I admire your content.
Thanks Narinder!
Thanks for sharing this. Really well done! Great message, storytelling and video editing. Looking forward to seeing your future videos.
Thank you, Bryan!
I'm sure you've heard it all before, but just wanted to say thank you for such a helpful and concise video that seems to have been made with the best of intentions. I really appreciated this and it came to me when I needed it most. Thank you.
I was shocked when i saw how few clicks and followers you have. This looks so professional and wholesome. Well done!
Thanks mine! Appreciate you
This was beyond helpful!! Could you also do an evening routine with this same concept?
That’s a great idea! I think I will sometime in the future. Thanks for the suggestion
Great content! No matter what, this video deserves a like just because the quality of the production overall and the stastitics the channel had when the video was originally released
This has already changed this day around, thanks!
This was really helpful. I'm gonna try these steps ( I already do some of the mentioned steps though). I also want to point out that this video was truly amazing. The information, the editing style and everything. I actually asummed that you must have at least thousands of subscribers and then I scrolled down and saw 351 subscribers. Oh man! I subscribed and the count went up to 352. In short I'm glad I'm here at your journey's beginning. Wish you good luck :)
Thanks so much Aishwarya! Glad you enjoyed it. Wish you luck with trying this!
@@davidbangean Thank you David!
This video is so helpful and motivating. It will be good if u make videos on social media detox and smart bedtime routine.😊
I definitely plan to do something like that in the future! Thanks for the suggestion Subasri :)
I read the book few years ago, followed for for days and forgot about it. You summarised it so well. Will start again, following them
One thing I do is to set my alarm around 30 minutes before I actually need to wake up and get out of bed, this way I can sit there on my phone for a minute and wake up a little more! Believe or not it makes it easier to get out of bed and it kinda gives the morning a nice slow vibe knowing you wake up and can relax a little before getting ready!
I literally wore my glasses just to re-check the subscribers , I expected it to be 721k , bro the content is such a masterpiece in itself , deserves more appreciation than just the views or subscribers
Haha thanks so much, Adino! Means a lot to me for you to share that! Will do my best
@@davidbangean 😄😄😄
This is by far one of the best videos I’ve seen
great videos man! loved this one, hoping to consistently wake up early and get things going! Keep up the amazing work with your videos, surprised to see your channel is still under 100k, fingers crossed man...good luck!
Love it bro....👌
It was the reminder I needed. Thank you😊 How do you deal with social activities in the evening/night? I don't want to sacrifice on meeting my friends but also not on sleep. (I don't mean meeting everyday or so.)
No problem! To answer your question, just balancing priorities. Maybe some nights you create a limit of how late you can stay out, and tell your friends that’s when you have to leave. Other nights (weekends perhaps) give yourself some more freedom. Don’t think it’s just one or the other, do your best to balance it and you’ll be way more happy with yourself. Hope this helps!
Just wanted to thank you for your effort to make people's life better. It's rare in this days.
Summary: Never hit snooze - not even once. It's like saying "I don't want to live my life" WUML - Wake Up Motivation Level -> Snooze proof wake up strategy step 1: Set your intentions before you go to bed - what do you have coming up the next day? What inspires you not to hit snooze? Step 2: Set your alarm clock across the room. Step 3: Brush your teeth. Step 4: Drink a full glass of water. Step 5: Step into a (cold) shower or work out. High return activities: Make your first hour the most optimally productive How to: 1: Intentional silence, (guided) meditations. 2: Affirmations (repetition leads to belief). 3: Visualization (see things as you want them to be to get motivated). 4: Exercise (wakes you up,...). 5: Read (nurish your mind like you would your body). 6: Writing/Journaling (opens a portal to past thoughts you can look on objectively and gives the opportunity to dump your thoughts to gain clarity. To start this, as it's intimidating, begin by only spending very short amout of times with each step. Even if it's just one minute. This way you build habits. (Look for atomic habits summary on youtube of you want to learn more about how to effectively build habits)
thank you for this
thank you for taking your time to make this
Thank you for this quote
I like the video you made it well made 👏🏻 and the information and the tips are really helpful thank you ✨
No problem, Rina!
Great video, going to try this! Currently just woke up and need to get ready for work imma be running today, but hopefully not tomorrow. Also nice editing, as well as your calm explanation that was simple and easy to follow.
This showed up right when I needed it most. Thank you!
I hardly have the motivation to live, let alone wake up.
I would like to try this one day. I too am a snoozer and working from home now makes it even worse.
You got this! Good luck to you :)
