Make 5 breakfasts, pack 3 lunches, jump in the shower, check the weather, put on shorts t-shirt and flip flops regardless, look everywhere for my keys and someone's missing shoe (someone's always missing a shoe), toss kids in car, kiss wife, drop kids off at schools, drive 15 mins to office while listening to WSJ podcast, get coffee, get to office.
Focus on standing up. Alarm clock is set to the news and I'll listen for anything interesting. Use toilet, drink glass of water. Go to kitchen and get breakfast going for family. Only then do I check email/messages for anything urgent. I used to be more vigilant about checking email first thing in the AM but not now.
Ponder the dreams which visited me in the night. While still laying there decided which burdens to carry and which to ignore for that day. Hear my kids playing and tell myself that whatever seems pressing right now (email, last night's unfinished project, team conflict, etc.) will be meaningless in another month, year, life span, but dragging my ass out of bed to play with them (nothing gets someone ready to take on the world like hearing your two kids shout, "it's dad, let's wrestle him!" at 6 am) before all the other stuff crowds in must not be missed. Commence wrestling with said kids.
Meditate. Take my baby for a swim. Sit in the sun reading or listening to music or audio books. Shower, breakfast in the garden, drink a smoothie and a coffee. Review my vision, aspirations, goals, and plan on iPad. Choose 3 important things to achieve for the day, and add them to my calendar. Then step inside my home, into my office, switch on my Mac and start work. I try not to check email, Facebook, Hacker News or RSS feeds before I've completed the first important task I've set for the day.
Snooze the alarm for 30-45 minutes, leap out of bed at last minute, put on matching clean clothes, tie hair back and dash out to work. If I have extra time I'll put on some makeup.
I run into the shower — usually have some sort of insight — then after the shower I write that down in Notes which syncs to iCloud — I then grab the J line and this past week have been watching Steve Jobs videos on my half hour trip to my studio.
That's all about 7:30-8:45am
