In this video, I’m not trying to sell you a “5 a.m. hustle” fantasy or a totally lazy start either. I take you through my real minimalist summer morning routine—the version that feels calm, simple, and actually sustainable. These days I wake up before 6:00 a.m. on purpose: summer gets hot fast, so I like to do the body-focused stuff early, before the sun is too high and the day starts pulling at my attention. I brew a coffee in a paper cup (yes, weird, but I like drinking it on the go) and head out for about a one-hour sunrise walk—around 5 km—either in silence or with my favorite music. Then I do a street workout at my “outdoor gym,” because I quit the indoor gym for the summer. After a shower, I leave space for my mind: a bit of language learning and reading, usually 30–40 minutes depending on the day. I also talk about why I don’t force an ultra-productive morning. Focus burns energy, and if you spend it all before 10 a.m., you’re likely to feel unbalanced later. I stick to intermittent fasting, work for a bit, then eat (usually eggs and sandwiches), plan my day on the balcony, and start the hustle without feeling drained.
