Welcome to the Before Breakfast podcast.

Today's tip is to create a good morning routine.

That is, a routine that says good morning to everyone around you,

and will help you actually have a good morning.

On a podcast called Before Breakfast, we talk a lot about good morning routines.

Routines that involve saying good morning, literally, or in your actions, to you and the people

around you.

So what could a good morning routine look like?
