What one habit has made a crucial difference in your success?

Waking up at 4am every morning. No exceptions. Time is finite — a precious and scarce resource — and in a world of connectivity, zoom calls, emails, texts and non-stop meetings, time easily slips away. Waking up early helps me protect time for deep, focused thinking and clarity.
