Good Morning
Thank you for checking out my morning ritual page.

Here is a list of things I do when I get up.
New 2022 Morning Routine for Joe Apfelbaum
- Go to sleep by 10 PM and plan on getting 6 hours of SLEEP. Have major gratitude before I go to sleep. Say, Shema!
- Wake up and check the time to make sure I got at least 6 hours of sleep.
- Say Modai Ani and THANK GOD for giving me my soul – I GET TO DO THIS AGAIN.
- I weigh myself to hold myself accountable for my weight goal.
- I wash my hands and face, brush my teeth and drink 16 ounces of water to increase my WUML
- I put on my exercise gear, shorts, t-shirt, and sneakers
- I make my bed so I feel like I accomplished something (Only if none of my kids are in bed sleeping, I don’t want to wake them too early.)
- Grab my phone and headset to prepare for my run and power it on. (My phone is OFF at night)
- While the phone is booting, I go to the living room, turn the lights on, sit in QUIET, and breathe deeply.
- I do some stretches on my yoga mat to make sure all my body parts are flexible.
- Scan my phone to make sure I know what I am doing and make sure there is nothing urgent from the night before.
- I run three miles, take a selfie, and post something inspirational on WhatsApp, Insta, FB, and LinkedIn.
- Get back home and drink at least 16-24 ounces of water while journaling or writing creative content that is in my head.
- Read a few pages of the book that I am focused on for the week. I have 21 books I will master this year.
- Hop into the Mojovation group and do 10 minutes of MOJOVATION discussing the book of the month or anything that comes to me.
- Wake up the kids so they can get ready for school while I shower and get dressed.
- Say the morning prayers with Teffilin and learn Torah.
- Drink 16 ounces of water while I tell my kids I love them and see them off to school.
- I start my day by getting to inbox zero and talking to my team, wishing them GM with some Gratitude.
This is my ideal routine. When I am in the mood, I’ll eat something but most mornings I’m intermittent fasting.
I like to watch something funny because I am committed to laughing each day. Starting my day with a laugh is super important. Some days I do not get to all of the above, but I review the list and make sure that I am on track with my routine.
