How Morning Walks Made My Mornings Better (Even as a Night Owl)

Here’s something I never thought I’d say: I actually enjoy my mornings now.

Crazy, right? For someone who’s always been more of a night owl, it still surprises me that I’ve been doing these morning walks for over a year.

And believe me, it’s made starting my busy days as a CEO a whole lot easier. It started as a way to just get moving, but what really hooked me was how much calmer and clearer I felt afterward.

Walking with my wife has become our little ritual, a time when we can connect before the day gets hectic. It’s this peaceful window where we talk about anything—plans, ideas, or sometimes just enjoy the quiet together.

I didn’t realize how much I needed that time until I made it a habit. These walks give me a head start on the day—mentally, I’m sharper and more focused.

I’ve noticed that I’m more productive and less stressed. It’s like clearing the mental clutter before diving into all the CEO responsibilities that come with running a company. Plus, having that moment with my wife makes it feel less like a chore and more like quality time.

Honestly, if you’d asked me a year ago if I’d be doing this every morning, I would’ve laughed. But now, it’s become such an essential part of my routine that I look forward to it.

If you’ve been struggling with mornings or looking for something to help set the tone for a busy day, I can’t recommend it enough.

What’s your go-to morning ritual, if you have one? I’d love to hear about it!

Cheers,
Angelo

P.S. Who would’ve thought a few early mornings could make such a difference?
