An envious Email Subscriber Clayton S. sent this reply to my inbox a few days ago…

Hey GOAT. I hate that I missed that Daniel Throssell world building masterclass but 4am my time just wasn’t happening 🤣 but I did have a question for you. Did you see his morning routine email? A six hour morning routine! That dude is on another planet!

I’m curious what is el copy goat’s morning routine? Is it like throssells?

Cheers

So that crowd wants to know if Romania’s #1 Copywriter is as disciplined and dominant as the chosen one of Australia?

Get ready for this one, Clayton…

Cause not only does Yours Truly not even come close to a 6-hour morning routine…

But on occasion, I do what is my…

LAZY 6 MINUTE ROUTINE TO RICHES.

🤣

Here’s the routine:

*Take a leak

*Pull a shot of espresso

*Start writing

I know I know…

All the Dude-Bros who just read Andrew Huberman’s new book are Keyboard Warrioring replies to me right now.

Now candidly…

I don’t whip that one out too often.

I save that for days when I wanna wrap up my stuff early to go play Golf or take my kiddos out for an adventure day (or I’m simply in the zone and have a brilliant idea for an email I want to write).

But my typical current day to day routine still isn’t anywhere near what Throssell does.

It’s basically this…

___

6AM

WHOOP alarm wakes me up. I put on some Nike running shorts and trot my way downstairs to make a cup of coffee.

Huberman says, “delay caffeine for 90 minutes.”

Why would I delay Pure Joy and the closest thing to God’s Holy Spirit for 90 minutes?

After I pull my espresso, I essentially "bum" around for almost an hour.

Not kidding 🤣

I’ll pull out my foam roller and stretch out my legs. I’ll read email newsletters, copywriting books, my bible. Just kinda reading whatever I feel like to warm up my brain.

Sometimes, I’ll take my coffee in the back yard and just stare at the grass, hahaha.

I’m not in a rush to do anything.

I once read in a book by John Mark Comer — “I gotta let my soul catch up to my body.”

I like that.

7AM

After I’ve essentially bummed for an hour, I throw on a t-shirt or sweatshirt… grab my JBL wired headphones and hit a 40-45 minute run…

Playlists include but not limited to:

*Linkin Park

*Papa Roach

*Fall Out Boy

*Kings of Leon

*High Flight Society

*Colony House

*Harry Styles

*MyFEVER

Pretty much anything with rippin’ guitars 🤘

This morning I actually ran to an Audiobook — Dungeon Crawler Carl #2. But I rarely do that cause it doesn’t match the energy of my run and throws off my fungshway.

7:45AM

I’ll come back from my run and sit on the patio for a sec to let my body chill.

Then my cat, Princess Poppy, will graze my leg begging for treats.

“Milk, good sir? Have you considered getting me a glass of warm 100% grass fed milk, master?” Poppy says in her posh British accent she somehow picked up in southern Georgia.

“Poppy, go chase a chipmunk.”

Then she’ll run off while I head inside and make breakfast.

Been loving bagel sandwiches lately!

Toasted bagel with cream cheese + avocado + 2 eggs…

I’ll do that with some orange juice and more coffee.

Typically, I’ll make the kiddos breakfast too (eggs and toast).

8:45AM

I’ll shower.

Get dressed (another pair of Nike Running Shorts + black t-shirt)

Then head down to my office and start writing for the day.

It ain’t the sexiest routine but I gotta say…

… it is by far the most consistent and joyful “routine” I’ve had in years!

I did almost a decade of the really hardcore stuff with the 15 minute timers, cold plunges, meditation and yada yada yada.

It ain’t for me.

It made me more stressed out than happy or healthy.

And it wasn’t until about 6 months ago when it really hit me…

… I WORK FOR MYSELF!

I own all of my time!

I can do whatever I want…

So what would I personally want to do every morning when I wake up?

And that’s what I did.

Now I know that’s a “luxury” but it’s one I freaking earned by building an email-based business.

It took me years to get here.
