I'm 52 and I passed my Real Estate exam first try in October 2023 . I have waited months to find a real estate company to work for... I promised myself I would do this. I will!!
Hey! I am 52 too and also waited for a bit to start my real estate career. Fast forward 9 years from the day I started - absolutely no regrets! 9 years ago it was easy for me to choose the leader - Keller Williams. This year I made a big step and moved to REAL and am very happy about it! Can talk for hours about these two great companies! Reach out - will be happy to help! @BerzanRealEstate
When my kids were little and they said they couldn’t do something, I taught them to say ready set go. And then they’d be able to do whatever ( pick up toys, clear the table, get out of the bathtub. ) I still use it for myself.
I actually got up and took a walk. I am suffering from very physically debilitating anxiety and I want out. I am going to give all this a go. I need to be free and back to living my best life. You are such an inspiration. This will be a life changer for me ❤
I have the same anxiety problem especially in the morning. Still struggling everyday to find a solution. I hope we both could benefit from Mel. Good luck and feel better soon!
You have changed my life. My son sent me a you tube mash up of motivational speakers called Get Up Now. You are in it. Since I watched it (everyday for maybe 6months) I started watching your podcast everyday twice a day. Fast forward a year later, I am a stronger, more confident, happier, smarter and self helping person, mother, wife, daughter, sister and friend because of you and my work listening and applying your expertise, wisdom and advice. Thank you for all you do❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Your statement "you would do it for someone else ", really hit me. I have been trying to feel like I am in such a rut. I lost my youngest adult daughter and then 18 months later lost my husband. I feel like I have no purpose. I have no reason pushing me to get things done. But I still have me, I am dissatisfied, and I want to break out of this stupor. Thank you for helping me see I am worth keeping promises to myself
My condolences and sorry for your loss. Grief looks different for many people. Some days will be easier than others. I hope you give yourself grace on days you don't feel like picking up the pieces. Again, I am so sorry for your loss🤗. I am sending you hugs and love.
So sorry for your loss. I lost my daddy two years ago, I thought I’d never get better after that but every day gets better and you’ll find your purpose and what makes you genuinely happy. I hope when you think about them you see them smiling in heaven.
YOU have a MISSION that only you can complete as you journey forward. You've endured too much loss in a short period of time, sadly. Self-care, more importantly BODY CARE is critical to aid your recovery. Check in with your body and, specifically, your heart and really tune in you'll reconnect to your passion(s) and mission. Give yourself grace!!! Blessings, Paula
OMG! I realize I'm a constant procrastinator. Constantly avoiding phone calls I need to make, avoiding meetups with people, not responding to other people's invitations or requests where I could have made money or gain a friend or gain a connection in my career.
This podcast was made for me at such a time as this. Mel-I’m a thinker but desperately need to be both. I begin chemo & radiation today MONDAY MORNING for the next 6 weeks. My traps are certainly scrolling before brushing teeth. But if i really want to focus on how to beat this beast, i have to laser focus on this subject. My mornings going forward will determine how the rest of my life will become. Life is hanging on the balance. Asking for Prayers and tough love to slay this beast and live my best life at 55. Love you ❤so much!
Praying for you. Listen to the book of Ecclesiastes if you want some peace. Even if you’re not religious trust me it will open your perspective on life on the earth.
Tomorrow I have a job interview. I haven’t had a conventional job in a decade. I experienced some horrific trauma I learned to cope with bc sleeping all day while people were at work, and it was safe for me to not be abused. And then I would wake up at night exercise go grocery shopping get all the things done that I would normally get done during the day.. now it’s time for me to change that. Since I no longer have any more money to pay my rent or bills, and it’s time to face the world, even if people look at my face and say what happened to you? I used to be so beautiful, but my ex not only broke my bones. He broke my teeth. All of these feelings of shame and unworthiness swirl through my head and make me wanna hit the snooze button. My commitment to myself, and show up for the job interview, sleepless, trying to start a new life.
I have 2 toddlers and we use a counting technique when my 3 year old son is angry from the Daniel Tiger show, and I was so out of it when the alarm went off that instead of counting back from 5, I said out loud, “when you feel so mad that you want to roar, take a deep breath and count to 4. 1,2,3,4” Wrong counting, but the technique still worked 😂 Today is day 2 of not hitting the snooze. Thanks Mel!
My bf sleeps in later then me and refuses to make the bed . "What's the point if I'm going to lay back down later tonight" . It is nice to have it made though . Sets the tone for the rest of the house
After the pandemic one million routine 54321 : 1. Wake up at 4am 2. Yoga nindra 3. Morning meditation 4. Breathing 5. Morning walk 6. Boxing or circuit training By 9am I ready to face anything Thank you Mel… you’re made me what I want to become… 52 yrs old lean and tone health body & mind
Hi dear Mel, i'm italian and i watch almost every day your fantastic podcast. You've helped me so much. I'm a cancer patient and i'm just 45 yo. I'd like to see, as guest of your podcast, Doctor Arthur Brooks. He's a fantastic social scientist and recently wrote a book with Oprah Winfrey. I apologize fir my bad english. God bless you, cos you're fantastic. Thank you for your advices ❤
Omg you nailed it….im a thinker …. I buy books, journals, even set up a huge zen den in my bedroom and I don’t even use it cause I feel overwhelmed from all the podcasts and different people I’m learning things from…. I don’t know where to start so I just don’t do anything and then it bothers me….. I’m in my head…. So I just need to do it…. Thanks Mel for this podcast…. I needed to hear this….
Loved this episode-Can I have a personal morning alarm sound with Mel Robbins telling me to “Get your ass out of bed!” That would be great motivation! Loved the tough love this episode and needed it! ☺️💪🏽
Thank you. ❤I love my mornings. I’m a morning person. I get up early before 8:00am. I feel better when I get up early. I wake up when the sun comes up, greet my day on a positive note. Doing this makes the rest of my day happy. I share my smile and I feel good. My mom always said “ mornings make the day”. She’s right. Thanks mom! ♥️
Mel, You supplement my antidepressants. I have depression. It’s easy to “just” be content, but you are helping me “get things done”. I am working on resentful procrastination and parenting myself. So, thank you for the guidance, my fav life coach ❤
I just woke up at 5 am, it's now 8 am, and I'm working while listening to this episode without brushing my teeth. I feel like they're talking to me 🫣 I'm still halfway through.
I take 15 min power nap when I get home from work! Set alarm for 20 min! It takes me 5 min to get to sleep. 15 min you will not go into a deep sleep, so when you get up your not feeling tired! Your refreshed! 👍
Mel, this episode came on a day where I woke up 3 hours late, barely made it out of bed, barely got my son to school - let's call it a mess of a morning! I feel stuck in a rut with my morning routine, and I just want to say thank you for getting your insights out there for those of us who need it.
I love you so much, Mel. I discovered you in 2021, and the 54321 High Five Morning after brushing my teeth. A few months later, I landed the dream job at age 64. I left dream job at 65, to serve those who are not digitally inclined and I’m going for this Million Dollar Morning and the HighFive to get my new life back on track. I have so much to live for now. I got a grandson two weeks ago. I 50:32 want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mel, for all you do❤you’re like my online gal pal voice of reason.🙏🏻
This reminds me of a fitness motivational book I listened to which was basically … “do the work now or hate yourself later.” That quote really stuck with me and it’s what I say to myself to stay on track.
I have been listening to your podcast for second time and I just want to say thank you . I am ethiopian student studying in china. I want to tell you your are changing people life. Thank you , God bless you.
62 (F) here. I'm bedridden at the moment. I crawled into bed during the pandemic and that's where I live my life since then. Lots of things, my choices and family trauma, put me here. I've been following you for awhile, Mel and have adopted your, "LET THEM," practice and it's a GAME CHANGER! I am saving this video and will listen 3 times a day and I'm starting TODAY. Thank you, Mel. My life depends on me doing this.
@juliekostas7322 That's very kind of you, Julie. Thank you, so much. I appreciate you. I did get up and accomplished quite a bit, today. I just pushed myself to keep going. I DO want to be active and social, again. It's an uphill climb and I'm determined to get healthy again. Mel really helps me. Happy 2025 to you too.🙂
2024.01.11 - I was on RUclips and i typed Motivational podcasts and Mel popped up and the plan was to listen in for the first 5 mins and go back to my search and then decide who i am going to follow, and to say the least, THE 5MINS HAVE TURNED INTO A SUBSCRIPTION and i am staying!!!! Hi Mel, i am your new friend. I love your content, i love your honesty as well. Snoozing,procrastinating were my other names😢 Thank you for talking to me on this very morning of 2024.01.12😊
Hey Mel this was an incredible episode. I relate to everything you spoke about. I WAS a snooze hitter until I watched this podcast. My snooze alarm goes off at 6:00 and that was my habit scrolling through my phone. However I do choose to listen to someone positive that how I rediscovered you😂😂😂. All bs aside when I started listening to this cast it was now almost 7:00. Five minutes into the cast I immediately got out bed by 7:30 I was dressed, brushed teeth, made my bed, and a cup of tea. Now it's 7:47 time for journaling, and reading. Long story short I've achieved multiple tasks with the first hour. It has improved my mood and energy. Thank you for keeping it real and doing what you do.
I have always used my cell phone for emergencies in the car, ordering food on the way home, and to look up my schedule for next week. And I have never and do not intend to text. I have watched people walk out into the street looking or texting on their phones. I slow down for them but always wonder how they don't realize there could be cars. People laugh when I say "I guard my energy. " I only have so much in a day and when it's gone, it's gone. I also love coming home to a bed that has been made. That is a gift I have been giving to myself for a long time. Everything else might be in shambles, but that bed welcomes me home every time. Like everyone else I still have stuff to work on. But that bed got made!
This is the Wake up call I've been needing!!!!!! Realizing that I'm a thinker and planner...... And acknowledging that I've been thinking and planning long enough and I need to GET MY ASS UP AND DO BECAUSE MY LIFE IS WAITING ON ME!!! I just downloaded your workbook! Today will be a day I cleanse start a night routine to be prepared for my early risings! THANK YOU MEL ❤
"In the life, the direction that you're heading in - it is way more important than the speed in which you are moving." Wow - blown away - absolutely 💯 yes!
I’ve been making my bed everyday since I FIRST heard Mel talk about this over several years ago. She’s so right. For me, it’s the ONE thing that makes me feel like I can finish/accomplish something. Daily.
Hi Mel! Like so many- you were talking to me. I 41 years old and I always put snooze. Never thought of it, but I am a procrastinator in everything and I hate it. I always say the night before I am going to do better every morning. Then comes the morning and I can’t get up. I am going to try my best tomorrow. Appreciate your words. Jhudy.
Can relate!! I always think that the reason I sleep so much is because my parents didn’t let me sleep enough growing up - one made me be productive until very late - like midnight, the other wanted me up at 5am. So now I overdo it in my adult life and sleep way too much. I always think I don’t want to get up because I enjoy my bed, I enjoy sleep and rest. But then when I look at it, I don’t feel any better once I’ve gotten up late, in fact I feel lazy and guilty and not satisfied because I haven’t been at all productive or enjoyed anything I wanted to do either. We can do this in 2024!! Turn things around 💪🏼💪🏼
Hi Mel, I’m a 22 year old model & entrepreneur and actively trying to create my dream life. I came across this video yesterday and today I tried your 5 second rule. Honestly, I did have to count 3 times but I got up! I’m having breakfast now and heading to the gym after. Thank you
Mel you are so real, which is why I can listen to you and actually have what you say stick in my head. You’re not some b.s. motivational speaker like most of them out there are, you come at us like a real person and friend. I appreciate that.

It’s -17 Celsius today with a wind here in Ontario Canada! (Siri tells me that’s 1.4 Fahrenheit). It’s flippin’ cold out!!! But I promised I would do my walk and you came along with me!!! I do have a morning routing but this podcast helped me pump it up to where I will go into my day with an even greater start! Thank you Mel! Now go have a hot toddy to warm up!
Mrs. Mel, you have called me out especially on being a thinker. I love to plan, buying journals/planners, vision boards, dreaming, and white boards. But then I don't carry it through. And yes I planned on printing the workbook lol. I love planning, thinking and dreaming. I'm 32 and still don't know "what I want to be when I grow up", so my awesome college advisor recommended I listen to your podcast and I am very happy she did. I am going to finish this video now. Thank you so much!
You bring so much value, positivity, solid tools, authenticity and inspiration Mel! Thank you and bless you ❤ I can’t stop listening to your podcasts till the end and I have a short attention span. You’re a gift to this world.
Mel, I just want to thank you! You have pushed me through this scary process. I’m nowhere near “recovery” but you have tremendously helped me this past week. This is this first time in 12 years I’ve decided I’m not taking pain medication anymore. It has ruined my life and it’s killing me. I’m on day 8, and you have single handily been my ONLY CHEERLEADER!!! My husband is doing this with me and he even said that listening to you helps. I can’t wait to see what my life will be when I’m on the other side of this hurdle. #thankyoumel
Mel words can't express how much your soothing voice, great advice, and humbleness has helped guide me since my mom passed away. I don't have a strong woman as a role model and your advice and just encouragement has helped me on days when I was just lost and ready to give up.I have been stuck in a rut for the past year felt ike such a loser because I haven't accomplished anything, but I realized I have accomplished something and thats knowledge, healing, and thanks to you a guide and tools to use to better myself. I thank God that I found you and I appreciate you more than words can even express.
Speaking of mornings, my husband jokingly called me snooze button queen😲. It's a joke for him but it's true. I admit it and that made me mad at myself because it delays all my work for the day. I'm stay at home mom and working on an amazing business online that I really want to pursue because I've seen how it changed people's life for better. But I do all the chores at home, I don't do plans ahead of time, I do what I can do for the day, plugged in to my business whenever I get a chance because I own my time. But I feel so exhausted almost everyday. Until I started watching your episodes and there are so many topics that relates to me. Now I am on my mission one change at a time. Snooze button is my first to change, NO MORE SNOOZE or else I lose. Self discipline is the key to doing this for me. Thank you for being here motivating people around the world.💞🙌
Listening to this whilst on my exercise bike. I have CP and I have a no excuse programme i have started So I am more flexible and lose weight. If i can move my body with cp anyone can. Good morning from uk x
I hit the snooze button this morning and over slept 3 hours today. Mel's attacking me LOL Tough Love, that we all needed to hear this January Monday morning!!
I’m using this podcast every morning in addition to the 5 things. I’m going to listen to it every morning to help me get over all my excuses of why I should not get up earlier for me! Thank you Mel! You are my lifesaver.
Thank you Mel for setting my intention to have a million dollar morning. You make everything so clear. I love the part when you tell us not to look at the phone. That is major because that's exactly what derails me in the morning. I am going to follow these 5 steps and watch my life change. Thanks you for the tips, I really appreciate the love you have for your audience.
Just yesterday I was telling myself that "Mel's 5 sec rule has been helping me so much, I gotta use it more n more specially for a disciplined morning" and here I am today ,watching this video... Universe really does listen to everything.... Trust me🤩✌️
Hey Mel! I have been working on building myself backup after going through a lot of adversity. I always get excited when I listen to your podcasts because a lot of the healthy habits you educate us on I am already doing. I get up early, I workout almost daily, I have a solid evening routine, I eat well, and always stop watching tv and read and meditate before bed etc. This episode got me on my snooze button habits 😮💨 I always get annoyed at myself when I hit snooze and end up sleeping in which makes me feel tired and feeling annoyed at myself for losing time in my day. I had no idea what I was doing and sleep inertia is something that I didn't even know about. After hearing about how my brain is affected by snooze and hearing you say get your ass out of bed! Was enough for me to listen. WELL... You were right! I did the five second countdown the last two mornings, and sure enough, after the first couple of minutes getting up... I way less groggy... You inspired me to break an old habit and so grateful that I found your podcast. I really enjoy your content and can totally relate to your struggles with ADHD. I was diagnosed at 36 which inspired my mom to get diagnosed at 60. I always thought that I was fucked up too but now know that it's not all my fault and have been working on developing methods to cope with my squirrelly brain. Thank you for all you do! ❤
While listening to this I said to myself, “why do I want to be successful”? Then I answered: I don’t want success. I want to be happy. So I get up. Get my coffee. Get back into bed. And I do sudoku. Watch my show. Write down my journal. Etc brown I get up make my bed and get ready for work and I do my job. Be happy.
Mel I love you! I am listening to you in hopes you can help. I have always been a doer. However after being really sick for 3 years I have found it so hard to get my life back. Other problem is I am 77. I know that is not the end of the world but every time I don’t want to do something I use 77 as an excuse. Please knock some sense into me Mel. I am healthy, and have no excuse but each day I waste. You are the best.
I love this! The 5 Second Rule is changing my life! I don't know how or why it works, but it works better than anything I've ever tried. Thank you for sharing such a great gift, Mel!! 🙏❤ This "thinker" absolutely needed this.
I was listening to this episode in the car with my teen. He kept rolling his eyes and making snarky comments about how no sh*t you need to get out of bed to have a winning morning, et cetera, et cetera. Well, guess what - the next morning, he rolled out of bed as soon as his alarm rang and made his bed, probably for the first time in months. Thank you Mel! ♥
Been thinking about being a doer since the first time I discovered your 5 second rule...YEARS ago. I'm a snooze QUEEN. I needed this today. This is the sign....Time to spring into action!
Wow i actually started to get serious in my morning routine today which is a Monday Jan 6 25. I got up at 4 am went to the gym and now I’m listening to this amazing video for my morning ☀️thank you so much
Thank you Mel, absolutely love this episode 🫶 I will follow these 5 steps starting tomorrow morning🤗 Simply because I am worth it Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
i tried this today... and wow what a change that i felt in going with my day.. I want to say thank you so much for sharing such an insightful tips Miss Mel, you may not read my comment but I pray you're always blessed with joy and peace wherever you are :)
Hi Mel! I have been following your podcast for over a year now. I especially have found the podcast on "What If It All Works Out" to be especially helpful in getting through tough and unexpected challenges with little less stress and peace and calm. This morning you talked about Morning Routine being significant to life change. I heard you say "you've been putting off making that difficult call." I decided there and then on being brave and making the call I needed to make. I received a positive response thankfully. Thank you Mel! I would like to suggest your writing a book on "What If It All Works Out." Many thanks :)
Its good to see people making it thru their hard time, as human being its hard to parent yourself. My changing life podcast was " the bottom line is no one is coming"
Mel, I just started watching your videos a few weeks ago and I love them! Your videos are really helping me process my parents recent divorce. I was 34 , and it wears as I am grieving, as well as watching my parents grieve. Your videos are inspiring and this video has is a game changer! I need to stop dwelling, thinking, and snoozing every morning and get my ass up! lol Thank you, Mel ❤
Thank you Mel! I am so glad to have found you. I watched this podcast yesterday. This morning, I started changing up my morning routine. I moved more and I walked outside for 5 minutes. I think getting that little bit of fresh air in the middle of winter is helping my mood and productivity today. Thank you!
Following you since I discover your Ted talk a couple of years ago and is still my number one. Then I discovered your podcasts and I’m a fan. I love that everything is science backed, but clear, flexible and down to earth. Thanks!!
I want to say, "Thank you" for the inspiration to focus on ME and MY journey! 2023 was a rough year for SO many reasons and I want 2024 to be better!! Instead of listening to a sad "break up" song and ruminating over loss, I decided to listen to this podcast and focus on who I want to be and the new road I am walking!! I'm going to make my bed! Love to you!!!!
Wow... wow..Mel..i needed this.. Now i get up at 4.30 every day.. even weekends.. but.. always make my bed first thing..i did the coffee.. the Facebook.. the utube for an hour and then i start.. but I'm going to start it Your way!!! I'm 71.. still work.. and a small farm... yes I'm a thinker and a doer..but i noticed. I just want as excited about life as i once was... Let The NEW ME BEGIN!!!!
I will have to admit! This is the first thing I saw on my phone (yeah I heard what you said about morning phone habits). I saw this episode drop, saw the title and immediately pressed play. I loved my morning routine and fell out of it when I had taken a long, deserved vacation/PTO time off. I knew my morning routine was key, because of how I felt. Thank you for dropping this particular episode today, on THIS Monday, especially. I’m so grateful to find the episode first thing this morning. I jumped right back in to it because of this very episode, including getting out of bed, immediately. I needed it! ❤ So incredibly grateful!
This was exactly what I needed to hear Mel. Thanks for keeping it real and sharing your own growth. You practice what you preach and that makes all the difference. Thank-you! Have a great day!
Thanks Mel.. I retired from Medicine last year and now I have no one to get up for. My days are a wasted mess, and by 3 pm I feel like shit.. time for me to channel that discipline I own and use it on ME for my goals!! Love this ❤
Hi Mel, Thank you so much for your free workbook download! I've been thrilled while using it! (Yeah, I'm a thinker. I have over 100 journals!) But I'm being very clear about how to actually DO what I value. What was very powerful to me was asking myself what I wanted in life. I usually plan out clearly what I feel called to do to help others. I have a husband of 40 years, 5 children and 17 grandchildren, so it has been rare that I asked myself this question throughout my life. I need to start living as that better version of myself. I know exactly what that looks like, and it doesn't look like who I am right now. Also, I struggle with guilt often because there never seems to be enough me to go around, with so many people to love and support. I went through the pictures on my phone even though I did not want to. (So many!!) I saw how much I have given of my time and energy to everyone else. No one was left out! I loved well, and I'm proud of myself. If anyone feels left out, that's really their heart issue to deal with. I am just ONE person. I also realized that the best and happiest times I enjoyed last year were times I was alone hiking, kayaking, walking in nature and experiencing silence and hearing and feeling the presence of God. I NEED this!! "You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore."🙌 Psalm 16:11 These times were powerful and re-energizing! I will now schedule more of this and be intentional this year. God first, myself next, and then I'm my best self for others.💗 Anyhow, I just wanted to thank you so much for sharing this workbook free. I'm getting so much out of it! God bless you!
I love this podcast ! for the first time I actually willingly got out of bed at 5:30 AM I had a super productive day , it felt amazing , thank you Mel !
“A Million Dollar Morning” - what a brilliant concept. I’m a 51 year old ADHD procrastinator who puts easy and difficult tasks off and off and off…😢 Is so heart to break the cycle
Since doing the workbook I do the self love affirmations every morning and trying no more negative self talk,I definitely feeling the difference already thank you Mel listening to your podcasts are keeping me motivated each day
I’m 50 years old , thank you I need to wake up I’ve been living like You exactly how you described got worse due to menopause issues trying to resolve all this , Thank you you’re helping me to overcome it
up..I'm a thinker in the morning..and yup...I got your workbook. haha..Thank you! It has really helped me ask myself important questions. I really have to stop living on auto-pilot.
I’m sold. You made a subscriber of me. I love your tough love, no BS self help. It doesn’t feel self-righteous or influencer-y. Thank you! Glad YT recommended your video.
Hi Mel. Just wanted to let you know that your counting 5,4,3,2,1 and setting up the bed helped me get through since beginning of COVID hit. It was a difficult and challenging time for me. You your advice and support has helped me since then. Thank you always.
I’m now certain why people love your podcast… you are informative while being authentically real. Vulnerable while confident. Well done. I’ve listened and you are consistent with that character. Stay real!!!
Okay okay! I heard you ❤ I was procrastinating watching you tube videos after setting my alarm for 9:15am still scrolling at 11am. Recently made redundant… I needed to hear this… I will clean up today take the Christmas decorations down and start tomorrow with an alarm and force myself counting down. Thankyou. Have a great day ❤
Thank you a él! I am positive my live is about to change finally! I is best That I have heard in ages, and I listen to a lot of self develoment material. God bless you! You are really the best at this.
Dear Mel, thank you! Thank you for your words, motivation and your wisdom. I am from Ukraine, and from the start of full scale aggression I have put my life on procrastination mode, I can’t find any motivation to get up, to work, to act and to plan, and how to live a life. Your video helped me so much to understand that I wake up for my future me, this is the basic self care I can do. Thank you!
25:30 get out of bed

Thank u , I feel like these podcast videos are so long to deliver simple messages
Thank you for saving us time!
I'm 52 and I passed my Real Estate exam first try in October 2023 . I have waited months to find a real estate company to work for... I promised myself I would do this. I will!!
Congratulations!
Hey! I am 52 too and also waited for a bit to start my real estate career. Fast forward 9 years from the day I started - absolutely no regrets! 9 years ago it was easy for me to choose the leader - Keller Williams. This year I made a big step and moved to REAL and am very happy about it! Can talk for hours about these two great companies! Reach out - will be happy to help! @BerzanRealEstate
Congratz
You got this!!!😊
Congratulations!!
When my kids were little and they said they couldn’t do something, I taught them to say ready set go. And then they’d be able to do whatever ( pick up toys, clear the table, get out of the bathtub. ) I still use it for myself.
I actually got up and took a walk. I am suffering from very physically debilitating anxiety and I want out. I am going to give all this a go. I need to be free and back to living my best life. You are such an inspiration. This will be a life changer for me ❤
I have the same anxiety problem especially in the morning. Still struggling everyday to find a solution. I hope we both could benefit from Mel. Good luck and feel better soon!
♥
Update us with your progression please.❤
Waiting for the update!! Rooting for you! You’ve got this 💪🏽
What of you are still so tired ? 🥱 @@gizemboy
You have changed my life. My son sent me a you tube mash up of motivational speakers called Get Up Now. You are in it. Since I watched it (everyday for maybe 6months) I started watching your podcast everyday twice a day. Fast forward a year later, I am a stronger, more confident, happier, smarter and self helping person, mother, wife, daughter, sister and friend because of you and my work listening and applying your expertise, wisdom and advice.
Thank you for all you do❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Your statement "you would do it for someone else ", really hit me. I have been trying to feel like I am in such a rut. I lost my youngest adult daughter and then 18 months later lost my husband. I feel like I have no purpose. I have no reason pushing me to get things done. But I still have me, I am dissatisfied, and I want to break out of this stupor. Thank you for helping me see I am worth keeping promises to myself
❤❤❤❤❤❤
My condolences and sorry for your loss. Grief looks different for many people. Some days will be easier than others. I hope you give yourself grace on days you don't feel like picking up the pieces. Again, I am so sorry for your loss🤗. I am sending you hugs and love.
So sorry for your loss. I lost my daddy two years ago, I thought I’d never get better after that but every day gets better and you’ll find your purpose and what makes you genuinely happy. I hope when you think about them you see them smiling in heaven.
I am so sorry for your loss..and I hope Mel helps you get a little more meaning out of life because YOU truly matter ☺️ Cheers🫶🏼💫
YOU have a MISSION that only you can complete as you journey forward. You've endured too much loss in a short period of time, sadly. Self-care, more importantly BODY CARE is critical to aid your recovery. Check in with your body and, specifically, your heart and really tune in you'll reconnect to your passion(s) and mission. Give yourself grace!!! Blessings, Paula
OMG! I realize I'm a constant procrastinator. Constantly avoiding phone calls I need to make, avoiding meetups with people, not responding to other people's invitations or requests where I could have made money or gain a friend or gain a connection in my career.
ME 🙋🏾♀️
Same. 🤦🏼♀️
This podcast was made for me at such a time as this. Mel-I’m a thinker but desperately need to be both. I begin chemo & radiation today MONDAY MORNING for the next 6 weeks. My traps are certainly scrolling before brushing teeth. But if i really want to focus on how to beat this beast, i have to laser focus on this subject. My mornings going forward will determine how the rest of my life will become. Life is hanging on the balance. Asking for Prayers and tough love to slay this beast and live my best life at 55. Love you ❤so much!
You've got this!❤
Praying for you! You’ve got this!
Praying for your health
Sending you healing, strength & lots of love ❤️
Praying for you. Listen to the book of Ecclesiastes if you want some peace. Even if you’re not religious trust me it will open your perspective on life on the earth.
Love this..."Hitting the snooze button is procrastinating your life", "Ding, Ding, Ding this is your life calling"
Tomorrow I have a job interview. I haven’t had a conventional job in a decade. I experienced some horrific trauma I learned to cope with bc sleeping all day while people were at work, and it was safe for me to not be abused. And then I would wake up at night exercise go grocery shopping get all the things done that I would normally get done during the day.. now it’s time for me to change that. Since I no longer have any more money to pay my rent or bills, and it’s time to face the world, even if people look at my face and say what happened to you? I used to be so beautiful, but my ex not only broke my bones. He broke my teeth. All of these feelings of shame and unworthiness swirl through my head and make me wanna hit the snooze button. My commitment to myself, and show up for the job interview, sleepless, trying to start a new life.
So sorry for what you have endured. You can change your life and look like you well on your way! Best wishes for the future!!
Best of luck on your interview! ♡. I really hope..u get the job..if that is what it makes you happy!
I feel ya
I would love to know how you’re doing 5 months later!
hugs
I have 2 toddlers and we use a counting technique when my 3 year old son is angry from the Daniel Tiger show, and I was so out of it when the alarm went off that instead of counting back from 5, I said out loud, “when you feel so mad that you want to roar, take a deep breath and count to 4. 1,2,3,4”
Wrong counting, but the technique still worked 😂 Today is day 2 of not hitting the snooze. Thanks Mel!
5 million dollar morning❤️

Brush teeth

My bf sleeps in later then me and refuses to make the bed . "What's the point if I'm going to lay back down later tonight" . It is nice to have it made though . Sets the tone for the rest of the house
After the pandemic one million routine 54321 :
1. Wake up at 4am
2. Yoga nindra
3. Morning meditation
4. Breathing
5. Morning walk
6. Boxing or circuit training
By 9am I ready to face anything
Thank you Mel… you’re made me what I want to become… 52 yrs old lean and tone health body & mind
LOVE Love this
Yoga nindra supposed to be before going to bed that’s what it mean in Hindi language.
Hi dear Mel, i'm italian and i watch almost every day your fantastic podcast. You've helped me so much. I'm a cancer patient and i'm just 45 yo. I'd like to see, as guest of your podcast, Doctor Arthur Brooks. He's a fantastic social scientist and recently wrote a book with Oprah Winfrey. I apologize fir my bad english. God bless you, cos you're fantastic. Thank you for your advices ❤
Your English is great! ✨
Omg you nailed it….im a thinker …. I buy books, journals, even set up a huge zen den in my bedroom and I don’t even use it cause I feel overwhelmed from all the podcasts and different people I’m learning things from…. I don’t know where to start so I just don’t do anything and then it bothers me….. I’m in my head…. So I just need to do it…. Thanks Mel for this podcast…. I needed to hear this….
this exactly sounds like me 😮💨
Same😖
You’re definitely not alone, I’m the same way unfortunately!
Loved this episode-Can I have a personal morning alarm sound with Mel Robbins telling me to “Get your ass out of bed!” That would be great motivation! Loved the tough love this episode and needed it! ☺️💪🏽
Hi 🌹🌹
How are you doing?
That was incredible
Thank you. ❤I love my mornings. I’m a morning person. I get up early before 8:00am. I feel better when I get up early. I wake up when the sun comes up, greet my day on a positive note. Doing this makes the rest of my day happy. I share my smile and I feel good. My mom always said “ mornings make the day”. She’s right. Thanks mom! ♥️
Gosh I wish I sleep in that late and still announce the I get up early.
Mel, You supplement my antidepressants. I have depression. It’s easy to “just” be content, but you are helping me “get things done”. I am working on resentful procrastination and parenting myself. So, thank you for the guidance, my fav life coach ❤
Ditto. Really.
@@jennaarmbruster2169 Hi how are you doing?
@@jennaarmbruster2169 Hi good day! How are you doing?
Revenge Bedtime Procrastination- I have it too! Because working for The Man when I never wanted to work for The Man makes me vengeful LOL
❤
You're a ray of sunshine in a dark world. Thanks for being here Mel!
I just woke up at 5 am, it's now 8 am, and I'm working while listening to this episode without brushing my teeth. I feel like they're talking to me 🫣 I'm still halfway through.
I take 15 min power nap when I get home from work! Set alarm for 20 min! It takes me 5 min to get to sleep.
15 min you will not go into a deep sleep, so when you get up your not feeling tired! Your refreshed! 👍
I do the same!!
Mel, this episode came on a day where I woke up 3 hours late, barely made it out of bed, barely got my son to school - let's call it a mess of a morning! I feel stuck in a rut with my morning routine, and I just want to say thank you for getting your insights out there for those of us who need it.
🙏💕
I do the wakeup calls in the morning😅fiverr
I love you so much, Mel. I discovered you in 2021, and the 54321 High Five Morning after brushing my teeth. A few months later, I landed the dream job at age 64. I left dream job at 65, to serve those who are not digitally inclined and I’m going for this Million Dollar Morning and the HighFive to get my new life back on track. I have so much to live for now. I got a grandson two weeks ago. I 50:32 want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mel, for all you do❤you’re like my online gal pal voice of reason.🙏🏻
This reminds me of a fitness motivational book I listened to which was basically … “do the work now or hate yourself later.” That quote really stuck with me and it’s what I say to myself to stay on track.
I have been listening to your podcast for second time and I just want to say thank you . I am ethiopian student studying in china. I want to tell you your are changing people life. Thank you , God bless you.
62 (F) here. I'm bedridden at the moment. I crawled into bed during the pandemic and that's where I live my life since then. Lots of things, my choices and family trauma, put me here. I've been following you for awhile, Mel and have adopted your, "LET THEM," practice and it's a GAME CHANGER! I am saving this video and will listen 3 times a day and I'm starting TODAY. Thank you, Mel. My life depends on me doing this.
You can make this happen! You deserve an active, vibrant happy life. Happy 2025 to you in advance. Wishing you good things.
@juliekostas7322 That's very kind of you, Julie. Thank you, so much. I appreciate you. I did get up and accomplished quite a bit, today. I just pushed myself to keep going. I DO want to be active and social, again. It's an uphill climb and I'm determined to get healthy again. Mel really helps me.
Happy 2025 to you too.🙂
@@SquashBlossom62 good for you! Well done 🎉 celebrate your achievement and keep going! You’ve got this !

@@monicagrabham9059 Thank you, I'm trying.
2024.01.11 - I was on RUclips and i typed Motivational podcasts and Mel popped up and the plan was to listen in for the first 5 mins and go back to my search and then decide who i am going to follow, and to say the least, THE 5MINS HAVE TURNED INTO A SUBSCRIPTION and i am staying!!!!
Hi Mel, i am your new friend.
I love your content, i love your honesty as well. Snoozing,procrastinating were my other names😢 Thank you for talking to me on this very morning of 2024.01.12😊
Hey Mel this was an incredible episode. I relate to everything you spoke about. I WAS a snooze hitter until I watched this podcast. My snooze alarm goes off at 6:00 and that was my habit scrolling through my phone. However I do choose to listen to someone positive that how I rediscovered you😂😂😂. All bs aside when I started listening to this cast it was now almost 7:00. Five minutes into the cast I immediately got out bed by 7:30 I was dressed, brushed teeth, made my bed, and a cup of tea. Now it's 7:47 time for journaling, and reading. Long story short I've achieved multiple tasks with the first hour. It has improved my mood and energy. Thank you for keeping it real and doing what you do.
I have always used my cell phone for emergencies in the car, ordering food on the way home, and to look up my schedule for next week. And I have never and do not intend to text. I have watched people walk out into the street looking or texting on their phones. I slow down for them but always wonder how they don't realize there could be cars. People laugh when I say "I guard my energy. " I only have so much in a day and when it's gone, it's gone. I also love coming home to a bed that has been made. That is a gift I have been giving to myself for a long time. Everything else might be in shambles, but that bed welcomes me home every time. Like everyone else I still have stuff to work on. But that bed got made!
Cook ma Kya hand
Thanks!
This is the Wake up call I've been needing!!!!!! Realizing that I'm a thinker and planner...... And acknowledging that I've been thinking and planning long enough and I need to GET MY ASS UP AND DO BECAUSE MY LIFE IS WAITING ON ME!!! I just downloaded your workbook! Today will be a day I cleanse start a night routine to be prepared for my early risings! THANK YOU MEL ❤
"In the life, the direction that you're heading in - it is way more important than the speed in which you are moving." Wow - blown away - absolutely 💯 yes!
I’ve been making my bed everyday since I FIRST heard Mel talk about this over several years ago. She’s so right.
For me, it’s the ONE thing that makes me feel like I can finish/accomplish something. Daily.
Hi callie🌹🌹
How are you doing?
Nailed it ! I would get up early to take care of someone else but not for myself?!?! Wow 😯
Hi Mel! Like so many- you were talking to me. I 41 years old and I always put snooze. Never thought of it, but I am a procrastinator in everything and I hate it. I always say the night before I am going to do better every morning. Then comes the morning and I can’t get up. I am going to try my best tomorrow. Appreciate your words. Jhudy.
Can relate!! I always think that the reason I sleep so much is because my parents didn’t let me sleep enough growing up - one made me be productive until very late - like midnight, the other wanted me up at 5am. So now I overdo it in my adult life and sleep way too much. I always think I don’t want to get up because I enjoy my bed, I enjoy sleep and rest. But then when I look at it, I don’t feel any better once I’ve gotten up late, in fact I feel lazy and guilty and not satisfied because I haven’t been at all productive or enjoyed anything I wanted to do either. We can do this in 2024!! Turn things around 💪🏼💪🏼
God Damn! Mel! Never again I dare press the snooze button 😂
Best podcast so far.
Be Brave Be Strong Be Proud
Hi Mel, I’m a 22 year old model & entrepreneur and actively trying to create my dream life. I came across this video yesterday and today I tried your 5 second rule. Honestly, I did have to count 3 times but I got up! I’m having breakfast now and heading to the gym after. Thank you
Mel you are so real, which is why I can listen to you and actually have what you say stick in my head. You’re not some b.s. motivational speaker like most of them out there are, you come at us like a real person and friend. I appreciate that.
I always come back to this episode. It always kicks me in gear. Watching it again on a Monday 💪🏾

Making the bed is very true, when I make my bed I feel relax clean organized and feel like you want to lay down. Rooms feel different ❤
It’s -17 Celsius today with a wind here in Ontario Canada! (Siri tells me that’s 1.4 Fahrenheit). It’s flippin’ cold out!!! But I promised I would do my walk and you came along with me!!! I do have a morning routing but this podcast helped me pump it up to where I will go into my day with an even greater start! Thank you Mel! Now go have a hot toddy to warm up!
Mrs. Mel, you have called me out especially on being a thinker. I love to plan, buying journals/planners, vision boards, dreaming, and white boards. But then I don't carry it through. And yes I planned on printing the workbook lol. I love planning, thinking and dreaming.
I'm 32 and still don't know "what I want to be when I grow up", so my awesome college advisor recommended I listen to your podcast and I am very happy she did.
I am going to finish this video now. Thank you so much!
You bring so much value, positivity, solid tools, authenticity and inspiration Mel! Thank you and bless you ❤ I can’t stop listening to your podcasts till the end and I have a short attention span. You’re a gift to this world.
Mel, I just want to thank you! You have pushed me through this scary process. I’m nowhere near “recovery” but you have tremendously helped me this past week. This is this first time in 12 years I’ve decided I’m not taking pain medication anymore. It has ruined my life and it’s killing me. I’m on day 8, and you have single handily been my ONLY CHEERLEADER!!! My husband is doing this with me and he even said that listening to you helps. I can’t wait to see what my life will be when I’m on the other side of this hurdle. #thankyoumel
Still clean!!! Day 27
Mel words can't express how much your soothing voice, great advice, and humbleness has helped guide me since my mom passed away. I don't have a strong woman as a role model and your advice and just encouragement has helped me on days when I was just lost and ready to give up.I have been stuck in a rut for the past year felt ike such a loser because I haven't accomplished anything, but I realized I have accomplished something and thats knowledge, healing, and thanks to you a guide and tools to use to better myself. I thank God that I found you and I appreciate you more than words can even express.
Speaking of mornings, my husband jokingly called me snooze button queen😲. It's a joke for him but it's true. I admit it and that made me mad at myself because it delays all my work for the day. I'm stay at home mom and working on an amazing business online that I really want to pursue because I've seen how it changed people's life for better.
But I do all the chores at home, I don't do plans ahead of time, I do what I can do for the day, plugged in to my business whenever I get a chance because I own my time. But I feel so exhausted almost everyday. Until I started watching your episodes and there are so many topics that relates to me. Now I am on my mission one change at a time. Snooze button is my first to change, NO MORE SNOOZE or else I lose. Self discipline is the key to doing this for me. Thank you for being here motivating people around the world.💞🙌
Listening to this whilst on my exercise bike. I have CP and I have a no excuse programme i have started So I am more flexible and lose weight. If i can move my body with cp anyone can. Good morning from uk x
Love listening to you❤
Coming up on 8 years sober on February 1st this year 2024🙏
You are amazing
Thank you❤
So proud of you!❤
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!
I hit the snooze button this morning and over slept 3 hours today. Mel's attacking me LOL Tough Love, that we all needed to hear this January Monday morning!!
Have an awesome day and amazing start to your week Mel and everyone else who see this. Good vibes 🧡🖤🫡💯🤙
I’m starting to follow you again, Mel after so many years! Here’s to hope and action for 2024
Thank you Mel! I am in a moment of my life where, I must try this… blessings
I’m using this podcast every morning in addition to the 5 things. I’m going to listen to it every morning to help me get over all my excuses of why I should not get up earlier for me! Thank you Mel! You are my lifesaver.
Thank you Mel for setting my intention to have a million dollar morning. You make everything so clear. I love the part when you tell us not to look at the phone. That is major because that's exactly what derails me in the morning. I am going to follow these 5 steps and watch my life change. Thanks you for the tips, I really appreciate the love you have for your audience.
Just yesterday I was telling myself that "Mel's 5 sec rule has been helping me so much, I gotta use it more n more specially for a disciplined morning" and here I am today ,watching this video...
Universe really does listen to everything.... Trust me🤩✌️
Hey Mel!
I have been working on building myself backup after going through a lot of adversity. I always get excited when I listen to your podcasts because a lot of the healthy habits you educate us on I am already doing. I get up early, I workout almost daily, I have a solid evening routine, I eat well, and always stop watching tv and read and meditate before bed etc. This episode got me on my snooze button habits 😮💨 I always get annoyed at myself when I hit snooze and end up sleeping in which makes me feel tired and feeling annoyed at myself for losing time in my day. I had no idea what I was doing and sleep inertia is something that I didn't even know about. After hearing about how my brain is affected by snooze and hearing you say get your ass out of bed! Was enough for me to listen. WELL... You were right! I did the five second countdown the last two mornings, and sure enough, after the first couple of minutes getting up... I way less groggy... You inspired me to break an old habit and so grateful that I found your podcast. I really enjoy your content and can totally relate to your struggles with ADHD. I was diagnosed at 36 which inspired my mom to get diagnosed at 60. I always thought that I was fucked up too but now know that it's not all my fault and have been working on developing methods to cope with my squirrelly brain. Thank you for all you do! ❤
You have completely changed my life. I have shared everything you have taught me. Words will never meet the level of thank yous. Thank you so much.
My morning routine:
Wake-up!
Make my bed
Meditate
Hour and a half walk or 30-minute hiit
Shower
Work
Read
I’ve only been following Mel for about one week both on RUclips and TikTok I’m so happy I found you 🥰
While listening to this I said to myself, “why do I want to be successful”? Then I answered: I don’t want success. I want to be happy. So I get up. Get my coffee. Get back into bed. And I do sudoku. Watch my show. Write down my journal. Etc brown I get up make my bed and get ready for work and I do my job. Be happy.
Mel I love you! I am listening to you in hopes you can help. I have always been a doer. However after being really sick for 3 years I have found it so hard to get my life back. Other problem is I am 77. I know that is not the end of the world but every time I don’t want to do something I use 77 as an excuse. Please knock some sense into me Mel. I am healthy, and have no excuse but each day I waste. You are the best.
Hi Sophie🌹🌹
How are you doing?
I love this! The 5 Second Rule is changing my life! I don't know how or why it works, but it works better than anything I've ever tried. Thank you for sharing such a great gift, Mel!! 🙏❤ This "thinker" absolutely needed this.
Mel,It is a nice of u to share this insightful wisdom.Right,our Morning is million dollar.As saying goes 1 "An Early bird gets a worm" Big lesson.
I was listening to this episode in the car with my teen. He kept rolling his eyes and making snarky comments about how no sh*t you need to get out of bed to have a winning morning, et cetera, et cetera. Well, guess what - the next morning, he rolled out of bed as soon as his alarm rang and made his bed, probably for the first time in months. Thank you Mel! ♥
Been thinking about being a doer since the first time I discovered your 5 second rule...YEARS ago. I'm a snooze QUEEN. I needed this today. This is the sign....Time to spring into action!
Hi Christy🌹🌹
How are you doing?
Wow i actually started to get serious in my morning routine today which is a Monday Jan 6 25. I got up at 4 am went to the gym and now I’m listening to this amazing video for my morning ☀️thank you so much
Thank you Mel, absolutely love this episode 🫶 I will follow these 5 steps starting tomorrow morning🤗 Simply because I am worth it
Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
i tried this today... and wow what a change that i felt in going with my day.. I want to say thank you so much for sharing such an insightful tips Miss Mel, you may not read my comment but I pray you're always blessed with joy and peace wherever you are :)
Hi Mel! I have been following your podcast for over a year now. I especially have found the podcast on "What If It All Works Out" to be especially helpful in getting through tough and unexpected challenges with little less stress and peace and calm. This morning you talked about Morning Routine being significant to life change. I heard you say "you've been putting off making that difficult call." I decided there and then on being brave and making the call I needed to make. I received a positive response thankfully. Thank you Mel! I would like to suggest your writing a book on "What If It All Works Out." Many thanks :)
Hi Karen🌹🌹
How are you doing?
Its good to see people making it thru their hard time, as human being its hard to parent yourself. My changing life podcast was " the bottom line is no one is coming"
Mel, I just started watching your videos a few weeks ago and I love them! Your videos are really helping me process my parents recent divorce. I was 34 , and it wears as I am grieving, as well as watching my parents grieve. Your videos are inspiring and this video has is a game changer! I need to stop dwelling, thinking, and snoozing every morning and get my ass up! lol Thank you, Mel ❤
Real talk here. 💯💥Thanks, Mel, from a "not a morning person". "Get your ass out of bed...for you!" "Put yourself on the list." Preach. ❤
Thank you Mel! I am so glad to have found you. I watched this podcast yesterday. This morning, I started changing up my morning routine. I moved more and I walked outside for 5 minutes. I think getting that little bit of fresh air in the middle of winter is helping my mood and productivity today. Thank you!
Following you since I discover your Ted talk a couple of years ago and is still my number one. Then I discovered your podcasts and I’m a fan. I love that everything is science backed, but clear, flexible and down to earth. Thanks!!
OMG, sure, looved to!! already sent a message!!
I have never listened to someone with such pleasure in my life. Thank you, really thank you.
I want to say, "Thank you" for the inspiration to focus on ME and MY journey! 2023 was a rough year for SO many reasons and I want 2024 to be better!! Instead of listening to a sad "break up" song and ruminating over loss, I decided to listen to this podcast and focus on who I want to be and the new road I am walking!! I'm going to make my bed! Love to you!!!!
Wow... wow..Mel..i needed this..
Now i get up at 4.30 every day.. even weekends.. but.. always make my bed first thing..i did the coffee.. the Facebook.. the utube for an hour and then i start.. but I'm going to start it Your way!!! I'm 71.. still work.. and a small farm... yes I'm a thinker and a doer..but i noticed. I just want as excited about life as i once was... Let The NEW ME BEGIN!!!!
Hi Millie🌹🌹
How are you doing?
I will have to admit! This is the first thing I saw on my phone (yeah I heard what you said about morning phone habits). I saw this episode drop, saw the title and immediately pressed play. I loved my morning routine and fell out of it when I had taken a long, deserved vacation/PTO time off. I knew my morning routine was key, because of how I felt. Thank you for dropping this particular episode today, on THIS Monday, especially. I’m so grateful to find the episode first thing this morning. I jumped right back in to it because of this very episode, including getting out of bed, immediately. I needed it! ❤ So incredibly grateful!
Hi Dear🌹🌹
How are you doing?
The way you help us modify our thoughts is really mindblowing, that's not just anti-clockwise that's incredible
No doubt...I'm a thinker, Mel. You have my number.
Hi 🌹🌹
How are you doing?
I can't do walks but I started 10 minutes yoga/pilates and I feel so much better.
This was exactly what I needed to hear Mel. Thanks for keeping it real and sharing your own growth. You practice what you preach and that makes all the difference. Thank-you! Have a great day!
Thanks Mel.. I retired from Medicine last year and now I have no one to get up for. My days are a wasted mess, and by 3 pm I feel like shit..
time for me to channel that discipline I own and use it on ME for my goals!! Love this ❤
Hi Mel,
Thank you so much for your free workbook download! I've been thrilled while using it! (Yeah, I'm a thinker. I have over 100 journals!) But I'm being very clear about how to actually DO what I value. What was very powerful to me was asking myself what I wanted in life. I usually plan out clearly what I feel called to do to help others. I have a husband of 40 years, 5 children and 17 grandchildren, so it has been rare that I asked myself this question throughout my life. I need to start living as that better version of myself. I know exactly what that looks like, and it doesn't look like who I am right now.
Also, I struggle with guilt often because there never seems to be enough me to go around, with so many people to love and support. I went through the pictures on my phone even though I did not want to. (So many!!) I saw how much I have given of my time and energy to everyone else. No one was left out! I loved well, and I'm proud of myself. If anyone feels left out, that's really their heart issue to deal with. I am just ONE person.
I also realized that the best and happiest times I enjoyed last year were times I was alone hiking, kayaking, walking in nature and experiencing silence and hearing and feeling the presence of God. I NEED this!!
"You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore."🙌 Psalm 16:11 These times were powerful and re-energizing! I will now schedule more of this and be intentional this year. God first, myself next, and then I'm my best self for others.💗
Anyhow, I just wanted to thank you so much for sharing this workbook free. I'm getting so much out of it!
God bless you!
Aloha🌺 Mel Good morning and Happy Sunday. You are loved and a precious Diamond 💎. Thank you for being you. 💖 & light💫✨🌟
thank you so much Mel I love youuuuuuu this is so valuable and precious information
Thank you Mel!!
I needed this! So VERY HELPFUL!

Hi Mel. Just wanted to let you know that your counting 5,4,3,2,1 and setting up the bed helped me get through since beginning of COVID hit. It was a difficult and challenging time for me. You your advice and support has helped me since then. Thank you always.
You are my life! You are human creator by changing bad habits! You are also charismatic!
I’m now certain why people love your podcast… you are informative while being authentically real. Vulnerable while confident. Well done. I’ve listened and you are consistent with that character. Stay real!!!
Okay okay! I heard you ❤
I was procrastinating watching you tube videos after setting my alarm for 9:15am still scrolling at 11am.
Recently made redundant… I needed to hear this… I will clean up today take the Christmas decorations down and start tomorrow with an alarm and force myself counting down.
Thankyou. Have a great day ❤

Dear Mel, thank you! Thank you for your words, motivation and your wisdom. I am from Ukraine, and from the start of full scale aggression I have put my life on procrastination mode, I can’t find any motivation to get up, to work, to act and to plan, and how to live a life. Your video helped me so much to understand that I wake up for my future me, this is the basic self care I can do. Thank you!
