Is it me, or is it something about the winter weather that makes me want to ditch my blog and commit myself to become a full-time target candle sniffer, hot chocolate drinking, cozy warm presets, jingle bell singer. haha
Maybe instead, I’ll make that apart of my bucket list of things/careers to have once I say adios to blogging.
Since the winter time is a season where it’s super hard for me to remain productive, I wanted to help my fellow babes out who are dealing with this same struggle of staying productive.
I recently became a full-time blogger, so the whole work from home life is new, so I’m here to spread positive winter vibes to help master productivity and give my winter morning routine.

WINTER MORNING ROUTINE + WINTER PRODUCTIVITY
1. SPEND TIME WITH JESUS
Alone time with Jesus has become a staple of my life for the last seven years since I became a Christian.
I realized no season I am in, can pull me away from my best friend.
Waking up and spending that time with God allowed me to gain focus and clarity.
And I know if you’re anything like me the winter season is picking on you to spend more time christmas shopping or possibly waking up and scrolling hourly on social media.
But, since we’re aiming to start each day with success, we must get back to that and schedule alone time with God.
Here a few things to do
1. Before checking your phone, say a quick gratitude prayer!
2. Light one of favorite fall scent candles and create a beautiful aroma for God and pray.
3. Read your Bible + YouTube or podcast
4. Ask God to help you with your top priority of the day.

2. MAKE YOUR BED + OPEN THE BLIND
The winter scenery has got to be one of the most beautiful things to witness.
To physically see the metamorphosis of the nature switch right before your eyes is so warming, I am always so amazed at God.
When aiming to be productive in the winter, it’s best to make your bed because you’re less likely to crawl back into bed once you have made it up!
Here a few things to do:
1. Make your bed as soon as you wake up
2. Open the blinds soon after; the morning sunlight will energize you.
3. Eat breakfast, coffee, and shower during this time.
3. LIMIT EXCESSIVE LOUNGING TIME
As soon as the season transition, it always takes a little bit of my motivation to accomplish things?
Can you relate?
The moment I give myself time to the lounge, I find myself knee-deep into the office’s reruns or some random show on Netflix.
If you’re working for the home, it’s crucial to spend less time lounging and more time on a schedule.
Yes, give yourself time to breathe by taking small intervals breaks.
But spend those breaks grabbing food or hydrating yourself.
It’s super hard to stay focused when approaching colder seasons, so try to accomplish as much before you sit entirely down. ( disclaimer you can relax and breathe, lol.)
Just don’t spend your day sitting without achieving one semi goal
Here are a few good books to read during the winter season
4. PLAN YOUR DAY
Or look over your to-do list
I am a rigorous scheduler,something I hate to admit. With my favorite season being here, I find I am more prone to drift off, so by planning my setting a schedule in advance, and I am setting myself up for success.
Now, if you’re not this way! Plan your day that morning.
Here is my absolute best way to plan out my day for the winter.
5. Montly Income + Blogging Schedule

Now, I’ve never been the one to monitor my income, but since I became a full-time blogger, it has become super important to me to ensure that I am productive by hitting my financial goals and blog goals during the winter season.
