-wake up

-hold a plank for 1 min while in bed

-coffee & 4 fiber rich toast with raspberry marmalade

-run 20 minutes (just enough to sweat, not enough to dread it)

-Shower & brush teeth

-coffee & 1 fruit

-write 30 min (just enough to write ~500 word, not enough to dread it)

-indulge in unfit, unclean, unhealthy, lazy, unproductive activities for the rest of the day... Hey my morning routine make me earn it!

  There was a post on reddit a few day ago about creating good habits:

-Start small (1 pushup , write 100 words, just smile to 1 beautiful stranger, etc ) so you wont fall off of the habit.

-Trigger it with one of your actual habit (after brushing teeth, after your meal, after checking your mail, etc)

-Overly congratulate yourself after you did it (take a victory pose, sing a powerful song, do a happy dance, etc)

  It was a good read, with some explanation for how the brain work for each of those steps.
