    Good morning, dear ones!
    Don't you feel as if you've accomplished something amazing when you wake up before the sun? There's something oh so magical about the earliest hours of the day. I find that I feel best mentally, emotionally, and physically when I make the most of my morning. It's been wonderful prioritizing time for self-care at the start of my day.
    I hope you enjoy my work week morning routine and that maybe you feel inspired by it!
    Do you have specific things you love doing in the morning? I'd love to know! I'm always looking for ways to be excited to wake up ☀️
    As always, thank you so much for being here-- you make my life happier.
    BIG hugs,
    Morgan

    I know I can't be the first person to share this - but I totally see you as a future children's book author and illustrator. It's in your future, I know it. So much of what you share and love to do lends itself to that line of work. And then narrating them too!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

    this video makes me want to set up a similar routine. my morning usually consists of binging youtube videos which is definitely okay, but I feel like reading, learning and getting outside would be a much better use of this time. 🤔 hmmm, you're making me think and i love that haha

    I found this in a book, Give yourself time, to take care of you. To do the things you love. To be with the people you love. Give yourself time, to be alone listening to silence. To enjoy natures beauty. To lose you in the landscapes of your soul. Treat yourself to play time, time to love, time to dream, time to live. And never forget that. There is no richer person than who has time!!! And I find it so well said. And that's what you did, take time for you. And I find we should all do this, makes us happy and makes us have a healthy mind and soul!!!! Happy Easter 🐣 💓 💛 ☺

    Morgan, your videos are pure art. As a content creator I know how much work it takes to come up with a result that’s visually pleasing (my videos are not 1/17 as beautiful as yours! 😂). As a native Spanish speaker, I’d recommend Isabel Allende’s novels (Paula is particularly beautiful) and I’m sure you know Gabriel Garcia Márquez (12 Cuentos Peregrinos is my all time favorite!). Thank you for these uplifting videos 💗

      Thank you so so much, friend! I know it can be so frustrating to have a vision and not be able to make it come to life with video-- it's taken soooo much practice to be able to use the camera like I do now. I'm absolutely positive that your videos are far more better than 1/17th!!

    A week-long morning routine looks amazing and makes soo much sense to anyone who wants to do many things but only has that one quiet hour in the morning. Ah the sound of trees creaking in the wind!!🌳🌿🍃 I remember the video in which you pointed out that sound was coming from the trees (as a city person I never heard anything like it and it's absolutely magical✨). And your speeches at the end always give me peace and perspective.🙏💖

Mondays podcast, Tuesdays drawing out my paintings ideas/sketches, Wensdays extra French lessons, etc. Just want to mention I think you are extra awesome to share at the end a disclaimer about your filming/filter/editing and that others shouldn’t compare. As I worry about impressionable people watching videos and judging themselves based off of others content. Reminders are needed that creators like you put so much time & talent to piece things together in a way that is not always real life. Morgan you are an amazing motivational women!💛

    The introduction of this video was amazing. I loved how it was simple yet imbued such a sense of comfort and peace. I'm so impressed by your video making skills. I love that you dedicate one of the first hours of your day to focus on yourself, your goals, your hobbies, and your peace. It's something that so many don't feel is worth doing but it's SO important to overall contentment. I especially like that you spend an early hour in nature and that you know yourself enough to know exactly when you need that nature hour. I myself, am not sure that I could wake up that early haha. I think that while I like mornings, my self care time is spent in the evenings and a lot of my night time routine is non negotiable... just gotta find a way to make exercise a part of the non negotiable haha.

    • @MorganLong
      @MorganLong  3 года назад +2

    As a morning person this video was so inspiring! I've definitely lost discipline, if you can call it that, when it comes to getting up early and getting things done since lockdown started, to the point where all the days blur into one but now I'm back at work I should definitely set some routine to my routine, do different things every day like you mentioned, so I still feel productive and not like I have to cram all the things I enjoy in my only day off and then get stressed!

    Thank you, Morgan, this was so helpful! Watching this video reminded me of how much I miss having a morning routine and waking up early to give myself time to focus on self-care. Sometimes we forget how important these things are until our lives are thrown into chaos with school and work. Thank you for this beautiful reminder. I look forward to your next video! All my love, Katarina

    Hello Morgan, loved your morning routine video. I did appreciate the ending too with you stating you're creating art to make things look beautiful and superb. (and indeed you have) Often things do look greener on the other side of the fence don't they?! I'm learning to be in the moment with appreciation in knowing I too have lovely things with my life. I agree 'music' is the heart and soul of your videos, of anything and everything in life really. Also including the sounds of nature which sounded so lovely on your nature walk. I guess that is your time without Roo to look after. Lol. I've always been a morning person like you. That's when I'm most productive and walks through parks and wooded areas begin my day, refresh, my mind, and give me direction for my day. I get a variety of perks from the walks; get exercise, feast my senses on the glory of it all, and a large part of my prayer time. The Big Magic adventure sounds awesome. Gracious amigo, tu video esta' muy bien!👍🥰

    I love your content and your videos, it's art and self-care, and a lot of the things that I care. I also love mornings and routines, I follow for years now Robin Sharma, and try a lot of things, my life change for better with routines. Now I'm in a phase of my life that I don't have the freedoom, time and health that I had, and at this point I'm not close to forest or sea, and it makes a lot of difference, but I do what I can. I have a demanding job as a psychologist, and know that all of these things are so good for us, routines of sel-care, hobbies are a must do always, and now even more, and I recommended to my patients. Your videos are part of my routines of self care and moments of enjoyment, and we do need all of these. Thank you so much for your work. This video was so inspiring, I already feel more motivation! God bless you friend! Best regards from Portugal! I'd love to meet you one day, big hug!

But I do have another dream for my life, since I was a child...be a writer. I already write for some books in my professional field, but I do have art and stories in my soul, and I would love to write stories that help to lift and help everyone. I Have also a dream of having a bookstore one day. Thank you friend for such warm and inspiration!

    Asdf, Chile! You were learning about Chile and I am from Chile! :D
    I could never have a morning routine like yours, though, because I hate waking up early, I'm a zombie in the mornings and I struggle every day trying to get out of bed at 10 am... x_x I suffer every year of school and university because of that and now I struggle to wake up at 10 am, but even that is hard. I much prefer nights and staying up all night! But, as years have gone by, my head doesn't enjoy staying up all night and I got heavy migraines every day if I did that, so I'm trying to balance it out: I go to bed at 2 am and wake up (or try to) at 10 am... And it works for my head, but I still hate mornings and feel like crap waking up, lol. I'm a restrained vampire, forced to wake up during the day when I would be so much happier during the nights! But my head didn't get the memo. LOL.
    I love learning new languages too. I'm currently trying to learn Italian, German, French, Turkish, Greek and Hindi, studying a bit if every one every day. I also devote Fridays to keep up my Japanese, which is my most beloved language and in which I'm already fluent, but I gotta practice it to keep it up because I don't have contact with Japanese people or a Japanese environment to be able to just absorb the language easily. And, of course, I speak English fluently and my native language is Spanish (from Latin America, specifically from Chile! Hahaha! :D)
    I loved the "disclaimer" at the end, about not comparing one's life to the one you show in the video. It's hard not to fall prey to those féelings...
    Anyways, have a good week and, if you wanna practice Spanish with me, let me know! XD
    Hugs from a very quaratined and totally locked down Chile (we're getting destroyed by covid... u_u Over 8000 new cases every day!)
