0:00.0 | Starting off your day on the right foot is always an integral part of the way that your day is going to progress because I always felt like if you start off your day on a shitty note, then your day's probably going to end off on a shitty note. |
0:12.0 | And I guess that's me being a bit pessimistic, but it's like, why not? |
0:15.1 | Start off your morning with something uplifting, whether it's exercise, maybe it's you reading, maybe it's you getting in a good breakfast, |
0:22.5 | whatever the case may be, but I feel for myself, one big thing to start off my day on the right |
0:27.8 | note is always a good rotation. And it's important. I feel like you don't want to be playing |
0:34.1 | fucking Metallica in your headphones, you know, at like seven in the morning. |

1:17.5 | looking for? And what time do you usually wake up in the morning? Yeah, man, I mean, listen, |
1:21.3 | it's all about just getting the juices flowing and really being in a good headspace to start off |
