| Hi, it's Nik! Happy New Year! To help you start 2025 in the best possible way, I made something special: The 20/20/20 Rule of Productive Mornings This inspiring video not only offers a super-specific, easy-to-remember formula for a great morning routine. It's also an experiment in extreme book distillation. - In 2019, Luke summarized The 5 AM Club by Robin Sharma on Four Minute Books, and it became one of our most popular titles.
- In 2020, I rewrote that summary for a Medium post, and it got over 100,000 views.
- In 2021, I turned the original summary into a video, and it's our 4th-most popular video to date (91,000+ views!).
...and now, I took everything I learned from those pieces and combined it into a new, updated, properly scripted Youtube video, masterfully animated by Adam (as usual). So if, in starting the new year, you're up for... - One of the best, most beloved, tried and true morning routines
- Condensed in the most efficient way possible
- But still fully explained so you know what to do and why it works
...today's special video should be right up your alley. Tap below to watch.  Here are the 4 lessons you'll learn from the video: - Snoozing is the quickest way to ruin your mornings, and there's a scientific reason for it.
- Always use your brain's early-morning creative edge before it slips away.
- Overall balance in life requires an equilibrium of health, mind, heart, and soul.
- If you want to have many productive days, begin each one with the 20/20/20 rule.
If you want a kickass mix of science, inspiration, and pragmatic tips from one of the most popular morning routine books ever, watch this video. Not your cup of read? Here are 2 other titles you might enjoy: - Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazzi presents an authentic, no-BS way of networking that feels natural yet is efficient at getting you closer to your goals.
- Buddha's Brain by Rick Hanson explains how leaders who changed the world, such as Moses, Mohammed, Jesus, Gandhi, and the Buddha, first changed their own minds with mindfulness in order to become both happier and turn their adversities into their unique advantages.
