That day I decided something had to change. Something has got to change. Something had to change. Something must change. I knew I couldn't keep starting my mornings like that. I just knew I couldn't keep starting my mornings like that. So, I researched morning routines and began making small changes.

And you know what? And you know what? It worked. Now I start my mornings feeling calm, focused, and ready for whatever the day throws at me. I am ready for whatever whatever the day throws at me, whatever the day gives me, whatever happens during that day, whatever the day throws at me.
10
Today, I'll share a few simple tips and introduce new vocabulary to help you make small but impactful changes to your routine. Small changes, but very impactful. It might be small, but it has a big impact. If something has a big impact, it's impactful.
11
All right. The first tip is to start small. Are you familiar with the word overhaul? Overhaul.

To overhaul something means to completely change or improve it. I'm going to overhaul this system.

So don't try to change everything at once. Don't try to change to try to try to change everything at once. Just give yourself a little extra time. Just give yourself a little extra time. Even five or 10 minutes can make a big difference. Another thing that made a huge difference was taking a few minutes in the morning just to relax and focus.
18
Our next focus word is intentional. Intentional means it's done with purpose and focus. I would take a few minutes in the morning to be intentional.
19
You can be intentional. Are you intentional in the morning? Yes. I take a few moments to be intentional. I would sit quietly, pay attention to my breathing, [sighs and snorts] and let myself relax for a few minutes. In order to do that, you must wake up a little earlier, right? All right. I would sit quietly. Pay attention. And you pay attention to your breathing. Notice your breathing and let yourself relax for a few minutes.
20
This helped me feel calm and clearheaded. If you feel if you feel clearheaded, that means you're you're not foggy. I guess the opposite of clearheaded would mean like foggyheaded.

22
Whether it's sitting in silence, reading something inspiring, or stretching, these small purposeful move moments help set a positive tone for the day. Small purposeful moments, moments that are done on purpose, purposeful moments. Those purposeful moments helped set a positive tone for the day.
23
Once I felt more focused, I started writing down my top three tasks for the day. What are the three tasks? The three things I must do today. My top three tasks for the day. By focusing on my top priorities, I was able to better structure my day. Eat that frog. Right? For example, if I had a video to edit, a meeting to prepare for, and a blog to post, and a blog post to write, I'd list them out. You write a blog post, right? Nowadays, you don't really write blog posts. No one's writing blog posts anymore. We're just making videos. For example, if I had a video to edit, a meeting to prepare for, and a blog post to write, I'd list them out. One, two, three. I must do these three. This practice kept me from feeling overwhelmed by too many things at once. and help me stay focused on what mattered most.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
