My best and most productive days are when I get a routine down. It usually involves going over all my tasks the night before and creating a to do list. I wake up and know exactly what I need to do and go ahead and do it.

However, I find it VERY, VERY difficult to string great days like that together. Sometimes I have a great 3 or 4 days but then fall off the wagon. I'm very good at getting 2 or 3 amazing days per week and then my sub-par days are probably well above some of my competitors anyhow so it's not so bad. I can't be superman all of the time.
