@AliAbdaal Having a goal.

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

Digging on the rabbit hole of #personalfinance. Can’t believe how much stuff I was missing!

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@LMK_writing Totally agree. Making your routine easier is a big investment!

@LMK_writing @evielync @ClaireVansell @YvonneHappy @rainar_angelo @BrookeProof @ship30for30 Didn't know you had one. Well done Laura!

There is nothing better than reading a book after a long day working.

@heyeaslo 👋

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@jillmetcalfe Ah, I see. Probably a better approach would have been stop listening and start reading as soon as you realised there was a lot of note taking.

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

Audiobooks are not like listening to the television in the background.

I made this mistake when I first tried them.

Here is what I learned. 👇

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@DerekMoore23 @jillmetcalfe Totally Agree Derek.

When there are plots you make a lot of back and forth… with an audiobook you’d go crazy!!

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@jillmetcalfe Yeah, actually this is what I wanted to capture with my third point.

To be honest I her not tried non-fiction yet. Probably you are right, they are not ideal, but maybe it could work if you are on a re-reading.

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

It turns out I have much more time than I think!

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@heyeaslo No-code

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

@alexaleighrome Love this Alexa. Definitely something I want to try!

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

Here is the lesson I learned:

Simple acts do make the difference.

There is a reason why I've been able to build such a good morning routine. And it's not goodwill. This can help you once, but not forever.

Don't undervalue these small actions.

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

This morning I got up at 6:45 though my alarm was set for 6.

This was because my mobile was on my bedside. I took it and started to scroll Twitter without minding the time going by.

Here is what I learned:

You should never overestimate your ability to master a habit!

[Matteo Pizzoli @mttpizzoli]

After doing so for a long time, I thought I was kind of immune to bad behaviour.

I thought it was easy for me to get up rapidly, even without an external push.

Nothing could be more wrong.

It took only a single day without it to cancel my morning routine.
