6 Ways to Speed Up Your Morning Routine
About this video
McGoff presents six strategies to expedite morning routines when running late, including preparation techniques done the night before, bathroom efficiency tips, and grooming shortcuts. He emphasizes that while these tactics help in time-crunched situations, the best approach is to prevent rushing through proper planning and alarm management.
Key takeaways
- McGoff recommends laying out clothes and accessories the night before to eliminate morning decision-making, a practice he uses especially before early flights
- McGoff suggests prepping the coffee maker with a timer the evening before so it brews automatically, or at minimum filling it to just press start in the morning
- McGoff argues electric shavers are the fastest shaving method and recommends keeping one handy as a backup, noting they’ve improved significantly in quality and comfort
- McGoff proposes a ‘faux shower’ method using water on hair and deodorizing body wipes as a half-time alternative when a full shower isn’t possible
- McGoff advises maintaining a grooming ‘go bag’ with travel-size essentials so grooming can be completed at the office if needed in the morning
