What puts successful people apart from all the others? Successful people start their day differently from most people and here are some of the early-morning habits that help them on their way to success:

1. Successful people wake up early in the morning. A couple of morning hours all to yourself can help you accomplish more than you will get done through the rest of the day. Try to get important things done before others wake up will increase your productivity immensely.

2. Successful people exercise before time is eaten up by phone calls, meetings and other crisis. Early-morning exercise improves sleep, productivity and reduces stress later in the day.

3. Successful people meditate. 15-20 minutes of meditation early in the morning can help give you more clarity and even more intuition when it comes to your tasks later in the day.

4. Successful people get difficult tasks done early in the morning. Prioritize the difficult tasks early in the morning will help you get the accomplished. You have time to concentrate and very few distractions when others are still asleep. You will feel more organized and successful and even concentrated during the rest of the day knowing that you have already accomplished something big that day. Leaving difficult tasks on the side eats up your energy, because the task will always be in the back of your mind.
