30 minute - 2 hour morning routine example

  • wake up
  • open a notebook and write/draw what comes to mind, 0-5min
  • consume a tiny energy booster (smoothie, apple, lemon juice)
  • read something (sci-fi, tech, philosophy related), 1-30 min
  • exercise (upper body, or shoot some hoops), 5min-1hr
  • review japanese, 1-30min

    This way you will passively (sort of) be moving toward your goals with a morning routine. And before the day even starts, you'll feel accomplished and satisfied with the days productivity. This leaves you a lot of free room to be creative with the rest of your day.

    If you're open to book recommendations, I'd point you in the direction of Grit and So Good They Can't Ignore You. Both of those titles are available in audio format - so you could listen to them during your commute if you wanted. And both should point you to solid solutions for reaching your goals.

    The book about grit has a section which should expand your understanding of how goal pursuit could work for you. Basically, you won't know every step to get from point A to point B, but you'll know of at least 1 step that moves you in the direction you think you want to go. And that 1 step is enough to keep you moving up pyramid of your goals. And there will potentially be 20,000 (wild number) other parallel steps which could do the same thing. (visualize the base level of a pyramid and all these potential ambitions all being represented by blocks of stone at the bottom; and visualize that the top level of the pyramid is one stone that represents what you understand your purpose in life to be, or some top level goal).

It's not (just) a personality trait. Read "So Good They Can't Ignore You: Why Skills Trump Passion in the Quest for Work You Love" by Cal Newport. As a society we have cultivated the myth of a dream job that does not exist. It is up to us to cultivate our own satisfaction within our jobs, vs finding the mythical job that will make you happy all the time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009CMO8JQ/
