I can’t wait for you to hear the amazing story this week’s guest has to share. He’s Hal Elrod, a best-selling author, keynote speaker, success coach, and all-around inspiring guy. Hal’s here this week to share how he became a productivity master, and bounced back from huge life setbacks, with the help of a morning routine.
When I first started hearing all the buzz over morning routines, I thought, what’s the big deal? I’m not a morning person by choice. I do most of my work after 9:00pm, so I can spend my daytime hours with my kids. Being a night owl seemed to be working out perfectly for me.
Why fix something that’s not broken?
Then I read (and re-read) Hal’s book The Miracle Morning, and I finally got the buzz. You might remember when I featured the book in my post on five books I read more than once this year and how quickly that post went viral.
I was lucky enough to be introduced to Hal by Michael Port from Book Yourself Solid and Session #130 of the SPI Podcast. Once we met, I knew I had to have Hal on the show.
Hal also has one special piece of advice for making 2015 your best year ever. I can’t wait for you to hear Hal’s amazing story and the brilliant advice he has to share.
