Summary of The miracle morning
At 20 years old life was good. No, it was great.I had spent the last 18 months becoming one of the top-producing distributors for a $200-million marketing company, earning more money than I had ever imagined I would be at that age. I had a loving girlfriend, a supportive family, and the best friends a guy could ask for. I was truly blessed. But one night I got Devastating car accident with truck. I spent six days in a coma, and woke to the news that I might never walk again. After seven challenging weeks of recovery and rehabilitation in the hospital, learning to walk all over again, I was released to my parents’ care—back into the real world. With 11 fractured bones, permanent brain damage, and a now ex-girlfriend who broke up with me in the hospital, life as I knew it, would never be the same. Believe it or not, this would turn out to be a good thing.
Hinging on my belief that everything happens for a reason—but that it is our responsibility to choose the most empowering reasons for the challenges, events and circumstances of our lives—I used my accident to fuel a triumphant comeback.If there’s one thing that I’ve learned from my car accident, it’s that there is no point in dwelling on or feeling bad about the aspects of our lives that we can’t change. So, I didn’t. I’ve also learned that, by focusing on what we can learn from our challenges and how we use them to add value to the lives of others, we can turn any adversity into an advantage. So, I did. “There is always a way… when you’re committed.
It was 2008. The United States economy was in the midst of the worst recession since the infamous Great Depression of the 1930s. In the years after surviving my car accident, despite bouncing back to build a hall of fame sales career, launch a six-figure success coaching business, and write a bestselling book, I was again challenged. This time it was a complete mental, emotional, and financial breakdown. I was suddenly unable to pay my bills.

Why Debt Was Worse Than Death
You see, after my car accident, I had people taking care of me I didn’t even have the everyday stresses of having to work and pay the bills. Life in the hospital was easy. That wasn’t the case the second time around. Nobody felt sorry for me. People had their own problems to deal with.A domino effect led to struggles in every area of my life.
The Morning That Turned My Life Around:
I woke up feeling depressed, as I had been for weeks, but this morning I did something different. I took a friend’s advice and went on a run, to clear my head. during running When I heard Jim proclaim with certainty, “Your level of success, will rarely exceed your level of personal development, because success is something you attract by the person you become,” I stopped in my tracks. This one philosophy was going to change my entire life.All of a sudden, it hit me that I had not been developing myself into the person I needed to be to attract, create, and sustain the level of success that I wanted. On a scale of one to ten, I wanted Level 10 success, but my level of personal development was at about a two—maybe a three or a four on a good day We all want Level 10 success, in every area of our lives—health, happiness, finances, relationships, career, spirituality, you name it—but if our levels of personal development (knowledge, experience, mindset, beliefs, etc.) in any given area are not at a Level 10, then life is always going to be a struggle. Our outer world will always be a reflection of our inner world. Our level of success is always going to parallel our level of personal development. Until we dedicate time each day to developing ourselves into the person we need to be to create the life we want, success is always going to be a struggle to attain.I love what bestselling author, Matthew Kelly says: “On the one hand, we all want to be happy. On the other hand, we all know the things that make us happy. But we don’t do those things. Why? Simple. We are too busy. Too busy doing what? Too busy trying to be happy.” So by doing personal development in the morning, I wouldn’t have all of the excuses that accumulate during the day (I’m tired, I don’t have time, etc.) If I did it in the morning, before the rest of my life and my work got in the way, I could guarantee that it happened every single day. Activities like meditation, affirmations, journaling, visualization, as well as reading and exercise. which acronym SAVERS.
The 95% Reality Check
One of the saddest things in life is to get to the end and look back in regret, knowing that you could have been, done and had so much more. —ROBIN SHARMA

Rearview Mirror Syndrome
One of the most crippling causes of mediocrity in life is a condition I call Rearview Mirror Syndrome (RMS). Our subconscious minds are equipped with a self-limiting rearview mirror, through which we continuously relive and recreate our past. We mistakenly believe that who we were is who we are, thus limiting our true potential in the present, based on the limitations of our past.Research shows that on any given day, the average person thinks somewhere between 50,000 and 60,000 thoughts. The problem is that ninety-five percent of our thoughts are the same as the ones we thought the day before, and the day before that, and the day before that.Accept the paradigm: my past does not equal my future.Always remember that where you are is a result of who you were, but where you go depends entirely on who you choose to be, from this moment on.
Lack of Purpose
Always remember that when you are committed to a life purpose that is bigger than your problems, your problems become relatively insignificant and you will overcome them with ease.
Isolating Incidents
We must realize that the real impact and consequence of each of our choices and actions—and even our thoughts—is monumental, because every single thought, choice, and action is determining who we are becoming, which will ultimately determine the quality of our lives.How you do anything is how you do everything.Every time you choose to do the easy thing, instead of the right thing, you are shaping your identity, becoming the type of person who does what’s easy, rather than what’s right. Always remember that who you’re becoming is far more important than what you’re doing, and yet it is what you’re doing that is determining who you’re becoming.
Lack of Accountability and Get an Accountability Partner
Lack of Personal Development
your level of success—in every area of your life—will rarely exceed, and usually parallel your level of personal development (i.e. your knowledge, skills, beliefs, habits, etc.)
Lack of Urgency
Remember this truth: now matters more than any other time in your life, because it’s what you are doing today that is determining who you’re becoming, and who you’re becoming will always determine the quality and direction of your life.

Step #3: Draw Your Line In the Sand
You’ve identified the causes of mediocrity you absolutely need to remain aware of and avoid. The 3rd step is to draw your line in the sand. Make a decision as to what you are going to start doing differently from this day forward. Robin Sharma: “One of the saddest things in life is to get to the end and look back in regret, knowing that you could have been, done, and had so much more.

The Miracle Morning is largely about recreating that experience of waking up feeling energized and excited, and doing it every-single-day of your life—for the rest of your life! It’s about getting out of bed with purpose—not because you have to, but because you genuinely want to—and dedicating time each day to developing yourself into the person you need to be to create the most extraordinary, fulfilling, and abundant life you can imagine.
Here are my five simple, snooze-proof steps to making waking up in the morning—even early in the morning—easier than ever before.
Step #1: Set Your Intentions Before Bed
The first key to waking up is to remember this: Your first thought in the morning is usually the last thought you had before you went to bed.
Step #2: Move Your Alarm Clock Across The Room
Step #3: Brush Your Teeth
Step #4: Drink a Full Glass of Water
Step #5: Get Dressed or Jump In the Shower.

Life S.A.V.E.R.S.
1)S is for Silence
If you want to immediately reduce your stress levels, to begin each day with the kind of calm, clarity, and peace of mind that will allow you to stay focused on what’s most important in your life, and even dance on the edge of enlightenment—do the opposite of what most people do—start every morning with a period of purposeful Silence. Meditation, Prayer, Reflection, Deep Breathing and Gratitude are some activities.
Begin by focusing on your breath, taking slow, deep breaths. In through the nose, out through the mouth, and be sure to breathe into your belly, rather than your chest. The most effective breathing should cause your belly to expand, and not your chest.
Now, start pacing your breath; in slowly on a count of 3 seconds hold it in for 3 seconds and then breathe out slowly on a count of 3 seconds.Feel your thoughts and emotions settling down as you focus on your breath. Be aware that as you attempt to quiet your mind, thoughts will still come in to pay a visit. Simply acknowledge them, then let them go, always returning your focus to your breath. If you find that you have a constant influx of thoughts, it may be helpful for you to focus on a single word or a phrase, and repeat it over and over again to yourself, as you inhale and exhale. For example, you might try something like: (On the inhale) “I breathe in peace…” (As you exhale) “I breathe out love... I breathe in peace…” (inhale)… “I breathe out love...” (exhale)… You can swap the words peace and love with whatever you feel like you need bring more of into your life (confidence, faith, belief, etc.), and whatever you feel like you want to give more of to the world.

2)A is for Affirmations
It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. Once that
belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.—MUHAMMAD ALI
Constant repetition of an affirmation will lead to acceptance by the mind, and result in changes in your thoughts, beliefs and behaviors.
5 Simple Steps To Create Your Own Affirmations
Step 1: What You Really Want
Step 2: Why You Want It
Step 3: Whom You Are Committed To Being To Create It
Being (who you need to be) and doing (what you need to do) are prerequisites for having what you want to have
Step 4: What You’re Committed To Doing To Attain It
Be sure to include frequency (how often), quantity (how many), and precise time frames (what times you’ll begin and end your activities.)
Step 5: Add Inspirational Quotes and Philosophies.
Saying an occasional affirmation is as effective as getting an occasional workout. You won’t see any measurable results until you make them a part of your daily routine.

3)V is for Visualization
Visualization is the process of imagining exactly what you want to achieve or attain, and then mentally rehearsing what you’ll need to do to achieve or attain it.3 Simple Steps For Miracle Morning Visualization
Step 1: Get Ready
Step 2: Visualize What You Really Want
Step 3: Visualize Who You Need To Be and What You Need To Do.
Keep in mind that, although creating a Vision Board is fun, nothing changes in your life without action. “Vision boards are for dreaming, action boards are for achieving.” While looking at your vision board every day may increase your motivation and help you stay focused on your goals, know that only taking the necessary actions will get you real-time results.
4)E is for Exercise
If you don’t make time for exercise, you’ll probably have to make time for illness.—ROBIN SHARMA
5)R is for Reading
A person who won’t read has no advantage
over one who can’t read.
—MARK TWAIN
The key is to learn from the experts—those who have already done what you want to do. Don’t reinvent the wheel. The fastest way to achieve everything you want is to model successful people who have already achieved it. Look at it this way. If you quantify that, reading just 10 pages a day will average 3,650 pages a year, which equates to approximately eighteen 200-page personal development/self-improvement books! Let me ask you, if you read 18 personal development books in the next 12 months, do you think you will be more knowledgeable, capable and confident—a new & improved you? Absolutely!

6)S is for Scribing
Effective Journaling
Here are 3 simple steps to get started with journaling, or improve your current journaling process.
1) Choose a Format — Digital or Traditional.
2)Get a Journal.
3. Decide What To Write
My journaling method ranges from being a very specific, structured process—listing what I’m grateful for, acknowledging my accomplishments, clarifying what areas I want to improve on, and planning which specific actions I’m committed to taking to improve—to being pretty traditional, just a dated entry with a synopsis of my day. I find both to be very valuable, and it’s nice to mix it up.

Everything is difficult before it’s easy. Every new experience is uncomfortable before it’s comfortable. The more you practice the Life S.A.V.E.R.S. the more natural and normal each of them will feel.
The Miracle Morning, you will begin each day with extraordinary levels of discipline (the crucial ability to get yourself to follow through with your commitments), clarity (the power you’ll generate from focusing on what’s most important), and personal development (perhaps the single most significant determining factor in your success). Thus, in the next 30 days you’ll find yourself quickly becoming the person you need to be to create the extraordinary levels of personal, professional, and financial success you truly desire.
