10 ways to let go of productivity guilt

And not just during a particular day but during our lifetime. We can accomplish great things, but we can't accomplish all of the things we possibly want.

If you have to wake up early, do your miracle morning routine, and then get to work, you're going to feel awful when you have days where you need to rest or you don't feel like doing the miracle morning routine. It's great to have routines to start your day, but they shouldn't be so strict that you feel guilty when you don't do them.

It doesn't matter how unproductive you were yesterday, today is a new day. The great thing about time is there is no way to spoil the hours of the next day.

Small or big - they are all worthy of celebration. Instead of a to do list, write a done list instead at the end of the day. Realize how much you've actually done rather than how much you didn't get to.

Just because you're not producing at the level of Elon Musk or Ryan Holiday doesn't mean you should shame yourself. They may have resources you don't have. They may have help and support you don't have.

Don't feel like you need 30 minutes or an hour or a 3 hour chunk of time to start that book or take on that big project.

Sometimes things come and go in streaks. You'll get an idea and write several pages. Other days you'll be stuck. But those days that you are stuck may be the days you're thinking about, researching, experimenting with ideas.

Everyone has their own routines, habits, mindset and to do list.

Work with passion on whatever is in front of you and welcome new opportunities as they come.
