7 Surprising Ways ‘Lazy’ Mornings Unlock Your Hidden Success

You are not alone if you struggle to create your side income alongside your job after working 8-10 hours.

Creating your digital Business working 9 – 5 PM is difficult.

You feel trapped in the 9-to-5 grind.

You desperately want to create a side income but struggle to find the time.

The problem is that there is a lot of stress at the workplace, deadlines to follow, and many other things to do, and you are left with very little energy.

There is also a residual stress that you bring home because your mind is still in the office, occupied with colleagues and the future work of tomorrow.

When you work in your office, you always think about when you will be out of the job.

There are Home loans, Credit cards, and many other Emis that keep you hooked on your job.

You cannot devote 100 percent of your time and energy to your job, but the job demands it.

You question yourself, “Why am I doing what I am doing?”

The problem doesn’t stop here.

After working long hours in the office or from home, you decide to do something for yourself but are disturbed by one question. “What should I do?”

Even if you find time in the evenings or weekends, you may be unsure how to create a side income or online business.

You just flip channels on your TV screen, being helpless.

You watch some random YouTube videos to learn something here and there, but nothing works for you.

Your self-doubt, fear, and guilt increase, which hampers other aspects of your life and family.

Think about your typical morning routine.

You want to snooze the alarm just to sleep more, then rush to the office without having breakfast.

A survey by WorkFront found that 58% of American workers are so busy with daily tasks that they lack time to consider anything but their immediate to-do list.

This reactive approach to your day is costing you more than you realize.

The average employee is only productive for 2 hours and 53 minutes per workday.

That’s less than half of a standard 8-hour shift!

Now, imagine if you could harness your most productive hours before your workday even begins.

What is the solution

The solution is utilizing your most productive hours.

The most productive hours are those that wake you up in the morning.

Or you can make use of 6 -9 AM.

The real hustle starts when you finish your 9-5 job.

Choose one thing: late night / early morning.

Sleeping early and waking up at 4 AM to build your business using your skills is excellent.

Or Take a power nap after coming from the office and build your business from 8 PM- 12 AM.

In 2009, when preparing for UPSC, I slept early in the evenings and woke up at 2 AM.

I also followed this routine during my class 12 examinations.

You cannot leave your job right now as there are commitments.

Do not leave that. Use that as your cushion till you build your side income.

So the best thing you can do now is to create something between 6- 9 AM.

The 6-9 AM Revolution

The period between 6-9 AM is a goldmine of productivity that most people overlook.

In his book “The 5 AM Club,” Robin Sharma writes:

“The way you begin your day really does determine how you live your life. Own your morning. Elevate your life.”

Sharma argues that the quiet hours of early morning before the world wakes up and demands your attention, are the perfect time for focused, uninterrupted work on personal goals and side projects.

It is said that 2 hours of deep work equals 8 hours of shallow work.

Transformation

Imagine waking up early at 4:30 AM and working to build your business or side income.

9 -5 P.m., you work to feed your kitchen and pay your bills.

6 – 9 AM feeds your passion and builds your side income.

In my coaching profit accelerator, I help people create online businesses starting at 4:30 am.

Building your online business with a fresh start to the day when you are fresh is always refreshing.

Transforming Your Mornings, Transforming Your Life

So, how can you reclaim these precious morning hours and transform your life? Here’s a step-by-step approach:

  1. Gradual Shift: Start by waking up at 4:15 AM
  2. Evening Preparation: Set out your clothes, prepare breakfast, and plan your morning tasks the night before. This reduces decision fatigue in the morning. C
  3. Create a Morning Ritual: Develop a consistent routine that energizes you. This could include meditation, exercise, or reading. In our coaching profit Accelerator, we do Affirmations and goal writing.
  4. Focus on High-Value Tasks: In the morning, I focus on four things only: Affirmation, goal writing, email writing, and writing 1000 words or more to keep my content ready.
  5. Use the Pomodoro Technique: Work in focused 25-minute intervals with short breaks to maintain high productivity.
  6. Track Your Progress: Track how you spend your morning hours and identify areas for improvement.
  7. Utilize the 6-9 AM timeframe for focused, uninterrupted work on personal goals and side projects.

Implementing these strategies can lead to remarkable transformations.

As James Clear writes in “Atomic Habits”:

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.”

By creating a system that prioritizes your most productive hours, you’re setting yourself up for long-term success in building your side income.

Procrastination But let’s be honest—changing your sleep schedule isn’t easy. You might think, “I’ll start tomorrow.”

“A year from now, you may wish you had started today.” – Karen Lamb

However, this procrastination comes at a high cost. Benjamin Franklin once said, “Lost time is never found again.”

Every morning you don’t utilize is a missed opportunity for growth and progress toward your side income goals.

Consider this statistic: People who use effective time management techniques are 500% more productive than those who don’t. That’s the difference between creating a thriving side business and remaining stuck in the cycle of unfulfilled potential.

“Success is not the result of making money; making money is the result of success—and success is in direct proportion to our service.” – Earl Nightingale.
