do all the hard stuff early in the morning it's better that way you got more willpower more discipline best daily routine is front load your day just walk through this tunnel in Europe frontload your day people will give you all these daily routine pieces of advice they'll tell you what time you need to wake up you know that that is less important than stacking so the reason is one of my mentors is the number one expert on scientific research on Willpower he wrote a book called willpower named Professor Roy bow meister and he's one of
my mentors that I pay ongoing for years and I'm saving you a lot of money you don't have to read the book one of the main takeaways is that basically you have glucose in your brain right your brain runs off sugar essentially to oversimplify it right you have this Blood brain barrier not much can get to your brain to protect it from things cocaine can get there but one of the things of course is glucose and so humans we are Masters at conserving our glucose so what happens later in the night the reason when you're
on a diet you're more likely to break your diet at night okay is because you have less glucose you've burned up all your glucose during the day and for most people there's a little bit of course of genetic variation but most people have maximum willpower slash energy sometime in the morning so for me I found it's not exactly the first thing I wake up I'm more of a natural genetic Night Owl so for me the very first 20 minutes of the morning is not my most productive but an hour or two in I get way
more productive and so the biggest mistake you'll make let's say you're trying to make money you've got a hard project you've got a tough phone call you need to make you need to make a hard decision you know something you've been putting off if you're going to put it off to the Night Roll it to the next day so I kind of have this framework where in the morning I'm going my best days they're not my best daily routine has nothing to do with whether I wake up at 4 in the morning and take a
cold plunge and a you know red light therapy those are all great but I think those aren't as good as what Professor B Meister said know the way that sugar works in your brain know the W that basically willpower is very biological meaning sometimes people are beating themselves up they're like oh I don't have enough willpower discipline to overcome procrastination I'm like well maybe you don't have enough food enough energy enough nutrition so that that's kind of the takeaway from the modern science what they found using fmri machines now they have these Matt liberman Professor
liberman told me another one of my mentors that I do paid monthly calls with they got these new it's a complicated word but essentially it's infered scanners of the brain and you can see the brain systems and so the average person is putting off to too late in the day the most challenging things they have on their daily routine so it's not the daily routine is not so much you know some people make a 74 Point checklist every day which is a low likelihood they'll actually finish it right what's more important is the order of
the things so if you're putting 10 things on your to-do list the most the question is most people and I made this mistake you're putting them kind of in random order or the order you feel like it forget how you feel study the science follow the science St stuff first the things you don't want to do first also the things that take the most brain power to think through so if it's a tough question you need to think man I like to for me the best is about 2 hours after I wake up so this
still the morning but not the early morning so I think if you're a night owl you push it to late morning if you're a morning person you push it to early in the morning arfor I interviewed him he's like you know he basically does things super early he told me his daily routine he wakes up at 4:00 a.m. then he reads from 4:00 to 5: okay it's like the he says like the gym of the brain so he's not just the guy that thinks you should get a sixpack of your ass you know you want
a sixpack of the mine so he reads from four to 5 he told me kind of like Warren Buffett got the newspapers books business journals then at 5: he rides his bike to Gold's Gym in Venice even though he's like 70 so he gets cardio fasted cardio I think he told me he had doesn't eat you know now he's older of course but then he switches works out then eats after at 7:00 so obviously if you're on unfortunately the most important thing has been bodybuilding so he does it first but he still puts books in
there which I thought was you know I I I'll record another video but one thing I've been telling people on a separate note from daily routine is that we live now in the area era for money making of smart fast we used to if you go back to the 1800s the wealthiest people in the world like Rockefeller car they were smart slow right so they were very methodical made sure everything was perfect and I mean of course they made some quick moves but if you look at the overall Arc of their business career they were
relatively slow right whereas the world's completely flipped in AI I mean people going to be able to recreate your whole website if you build an app in a business they're going to be able to recreate it while they they're going to go to bed tell an AI like cursor hey rebuild this website I want to compete with this company and so it's going to be all about smart fast now and so how that what that means to this daily routine thing is that you have to know how glucose works in your brain because you're going
to have to be quicker than any time in history 500 years ago 200 years ago even 50 years ago this conversation wasn't so important you didn't need maximum performance at every moment but now where you have you're going to have a world where there's going to be hundreds of millions of entrepreneurs all vying and competing for the same customers so that's why I say this conversation it this video is more advanced than you people realize this is going to be the necessary game is Peak Performance if you're trying to make money and I think if
you're trying to be a pro athlete if you're trying to be a high per former this is going to be the name of the game so be very careful of ignoring this be very careful because even if it's only a 20% difference there's an old saying an Amish guy told me what's the difference between a good Carpenter and a bad Carpenter he said about an inch about a couple centimeters you know what's the difference between a good farmer and a bad farmer a day meaning the good farmer plants a seed you know he's like oh
I can plant Monday or Tuesday let me do a Monday and then it rains Tuesday and the lazier farmer loses the carpenter who pays attention to that extra optimization the extra inch the extra centimeter that's the great one that's the one who gets the results so that's why I say these this video you might think this is a micro hack like okay this is only going to give you a small boost by doing the hardest things early in the morning but h it's not how math works the way math works is a 20% Advantage compounded
over time can turn into a million x result you know just think about it just look at a exponential graph it's pretty insane so at the beginning you doing what I'm saying which is doing the hard stuff early in the morning on your checklist rearranging your to-do list and what like like I said if you can't get to it in the morning and it's truly important roll it to the next day that's not procrastinating that's being smart but that micro optimization could take you versus other people trying to make money sure maybe this year you
only make 10% more than them but if you roll 10% for 20 years you're on the Forbes list and they're still you know struggling so don't there's an old proverb do not despise humble beginnings or humble things this is kind of a boring hack you know that's not the most exciting it's also not as fancy the problem now is everybody's daily routine is crazy fancy therefore it's not sustainable it's not sustainable that you wake up at 3:15 in the morning I tried this one year I saw no improvement I did a daily routine when I
was living at the Hollywood Hills I woke up at 3:45 in the morning I had all my staff at the office by 4:15 I was like oh let's do things crazy early let's have we had this micro optimized daily routine like 3:45 to 4:15 I got ready and drove to the office 4:15 to 4:45 we did an officers meeting with my chief office was you know we did all this I saw no lift in fact I actually saw a loss in productivity and income so I would warn you you can over optimize your daily routine
