How to save time on morning routines

And i’ve been trying to cut down my morning routine and I feel like I waste at least 20 minutes every day. I’m experimenting with meal prepping breakfast the night before and laying out clothes to speed things up. What little hacks do you use to shave off time in the mornings?

, I totally get it. I found that prepping my coffee the night before saves me so much time and helps me avoid that morning fog. Have you thought about setting a timer for your routine?

Prepping coffee the night before really does work wonders! I also found that setting out a simple breakfast — like overnight oats — saves me time and keeps me from feeling like a zombie. How do you like your coffee in the morning?
