Monday morning decides the whole week. Not Monday at 9am on the route. Monday between the alarm and the truck door.
Brendon Burchard has been pointing at this for years. High performers don't manage time, they manage energy. Mornings set the ceiling for the day. Mondays set the ceiling for the week.
The Monday Anchor. Four moves between alarm and truck-door on Monday morning.
1. Sleep the number, not the feeling. 7 hours minimum. The number is the number.
2. Sunlight and water before phone. Outside in the light for 5 minutes. Full glass of water. Phone stays face-down.
3. One page. Three names of customers or teammates today's work serves. By the third name, the day has a why.
4. Say the first opener out loud. Once, in the truck, before the first knock. The voice arrives early.
Run it for one Monday. By Thursday afternoon the difference is obvious. The rep who anchored Monday morning is on pace. The rep who hoped through Monday is recovering.
Anchor the morning. Build the week. DM , that is the kind of org we are building.
