How Successful People Organize Their Days

Ever scaled a business only to realize your energy is crashing and your family gets the leftovers? Let’s fix that with a simple operating system that protects your health, sharpens your focus, and keeps you present at home—without sacrificing growth. I break down the 33% rule: carve your day into three intentional thirds—personal mastery in the morning, deep work for business midday, and fully present family time at night—so you stop living in constant catch‑up and start living by design.

We start with the morning block that fuels everything: early wake‑ups, reflection, prayer, journaling, and a hard workout to generate real energy and set the tone. Then we go deeper than routine and talk health optimization—blood work, nutrition, sleep quality, and targeted supplementation—to solve low energy at the root. When hormones, gut health, and recovery improve, bandwidth expands and consistency becomes easy. With that foundation, the middle third becomes a clean lane for leadership, coaching, marketing, and sales. You’ll hear how to put on blinders, batch priorities, and turn obsession into results instead of anxiety.

The hardest shift is the last third. I share the pattern interrupts—sauna and cold plunge, walks, brief meditation, phone‑off buffers—that flip the switch from analytical grind to relational presence. Before you step inside, set a fourth‑quarter mindset: decide how you’ll show up for your spouse, bring joy to your kids, and create small daily memories that compound. We use a simple journaling system for morning intentions and evening audits so you can track how you showed up and adjust fast. It’s a straightforward, repeatable formula for health, profits, and connection.

This message is for you. I want to share with you in this clip, in this message, how I structure my days to ensure that my health and fitness and my personal development is non-negotiable. Every day I get it done. My health and fitness, my spirituality, all of these things that represent me and enable me to show up at a high level. How are we doing, ladies and gentlemen? So in this clip, you guys, I want to talk to you about how I structure my days to prioritize health, fitness, personal development, business growth, and family time. Now, if you're a business owner or an entrepreneur, this message is for you. Oftentimes, I get a lot of the same questions from clients that I mentor and work with, men who are growing their businesses, men who want to be present for their family. It's it's Sean, how do I put all the pieces together? How do I stay consistent, going to the gym, eating clean, growing my business, doing everything that's required of me in my business, and then still having energy and time left over for my family? Because oftentimes the individuals that I work with directly, these blue-collar business owners, they're growing seven-figure businesses, eight-figure businesses, nine-figure companies. They're killing it. And all their time and energy and focus and obsession is going into scaling their business, recruiting the right people, getting their marketing and advertising down, streamlining sales, generating more revenue, becoming more profitable. In order to do that, it takes so much focus and so much concentrated effort over time. But it comes at a cost for most of these guys. Over time, as they get into their late 30s, 40s, and 50s, they see a massive decline in their health, their energy, their morale, right? Their mental like focus and their inspiration that they once had. And oftentimes these years are just taken by and they're not present for their, they're not present with their families. And this is the thing that really, you know, will come back to haunt these individuals the most. It's looking back on the wasted years, the memories they didn't create, the time that they were there, but they weren't there. If you've ever seen the movie Click with Adam Sandler, you understand what I'm talking about. You know, I watch that movie and it gets me emotional and it gets me reflected on my life and how I'm spending time with my family or the things I could be doing better, you know. Um, in that movie, Adam Sandler gets in the habit of fast-forwarding through the mundane moments of life, arguments, uh, moments that he overlooks with family and whatnot, even business meetings and things that he just wants to get through, right? But then all of a sudden he fast-forwards through his whole life. And then he's older, and him and his wife get divorced, and she has a new husband who really shows her affection and love, and his kids are estranged from him, meaning like they don't want to spend time with him, they don't feel connected with him. And there's a clip where they're basically saying, Yeah, dad, like you chose the business over us. And I think there's a lot of men out there right now who are gonna have that rude awakening at one point. So if that's you, if you feel like you're just fully immersed in the business, you've let your health take a backseat, and you're not showing up as the man, the leader, the elite version of yourself that you want to be in life, this message is for you. I want to share with you in this clip, in this message, how I structure my days to ensure that my health and fitness and my personal development is non-negotiable every day. I get it done, how I continue to grow my business week after week, month after month, and get bigger, better results. And how I'm always able to carve out time every day, intentional time where I'm present with my family and we're making unforgettable memories together. You know, I call it the the 30 per 33% rule, you guys, or you know, basically uh it essentially you you carve out your day into thirds. Okay. Now, the first third of the day, for me, that's 4 a.m. till about 7 a.m. That's for me to get my mindset, my health and fitness, my spirituality, all of these things that represent me and enable me to show up at a high level. I gotta get dialed in on a personal level before I go out in the world and do anything else. So for me, what that looks like is getting up early in the morning, having time to self-reflect, pray, envision the man I want to be for that day. I like to journal out thoughts, ideas, goals for the day, read 10 pages out of a book that's gonna add value to my life, and then I go crush a workout. So that start to my day is a catalyst, meaning I'm creating positive energy, right? Positive endorphins. I'm setting the tone for how I'm gonna show up the rest of the day by the way I start my day. Having a morning routine and getting up earlier, if you're a high achiever, if you're a business owner, if you have a lot on your plate, it's the only way that you're gonna be able to get everything done. Okay. Now, over time, when you optimize your health, and this is what I do with my company, Unstoppable 365, we take business owners who are burnt out, help them optimize their health with proper nutrition, exercise, supplementation, blood work, so that you feel like you actually have more energy. You have more bandwidth throughout the day. You sleep better, you you become more rested and recovered every night when you sleep. In fact, I sleep less now than I did years ago, and I have more rest. Uh I'm recovered more. I feel more rested when I wake up in the morning sleeping less hours. That's because I've done blood work with my doctor, Dr. J, who's also a part of Unstoppable 365. I figured out why my energy was low, why my hormones were off, why my cells weren't absorbing nutrient fully. I healed my leaky gut. I've done all these things. I've been very proactive with my health to optimize my health. So now I have more mental uh bandwidth throughout the day, more energy, I feel stronger in the gym, I sleep better. Like everything's improved for me. So getting up early is easier. And that morning routine for me is so important because I get focused on the man I want to be that day. I take inventory, I reflect, I put the whole world on pause and I get my mind, my body, and my spirit dialed in so I can show up at a high level for my family. Then I come home and help my wife get the kids ready for school, and we always take the kids to school together. This is a non-negotiable. In fact, the other day I had two different teachers or faculty members go, you know, it's really cool that you and your wife, and like you, you know, bring the kids to school every day. You make this a family affair. She was telling me and my wife. And I thought it was really cool that they recognized that because family is my number one value. And I always want to be there for my children, present, doing the little things every day that most people overlook. Most people just drop their kids to school and then they race off to work because in their mind they're thinking about all the stuff they have to do. And they're already stressed, they're already behind, they're already anxious, they're already late. And they just live in this rat race type mentality where it's on to the next task, on to the next task, on to the next task. But dude, if you live in a methodical fashion, like I'm sharing with you right here, and you carve your day out into thirds and you're ultra-intentional, time slows down. And you're able to gracefully go through these moments, really capturing them, absorbing them, being present in these precious moments that you only get to live once. Not racing through them like Adam Sandler and Click to get to the end of your life and realize, damn, there's no do-over. There's no rewind button in your life, you guys. You're not gonna get to do it again. So stop overlooking these precious moments. Every day you can soak up these little moments, like making your kids snacks in the morning, talking to them, taking them to school. Like we play music on the way to school, we talk, we soak up that little 30-minute drive, you know? Um, and then the middle of my day, so this is the second third, it's all about business development. I'm doing coaching calls, I'm leading my team, I'm focusing on marketing, sales, everything I need to do to grow unstoppable 365. The middle part of my day is focused on those endeavors. Now I can just put my blinders on and I've already gone to the gym, I've already worked on myself. Now I can just execute in the business. Okay. Now, the hardest part for individuals who are running the business or entrepreneurs is that last part of the day. Going home to the family and number one, having the energy and mental bandwidth to be present. But number two, like turning off the obsession that helps you to grow the business. Because we need to be obsessed. We need to be ultra-obsessed in order to take a vision and turn it into a tangible reality, right? I understand that. So, how do you go home at the end of the day and be present and really have those really beautiful moments with your wife and kids day to day and not just overlook that and not just like get home and still be in work mode, still be on your phone, you know, just go through the motions. Well, I'd recommend doing something that creates like a pattern interrupt, right? For me, I like to do the sauna and the cold plunge or go on a walk, and that's like a buffer between workflow and work mode, and then family time because it shifts my energy, it changes my state. It gets me out of that, you know, very like analytical, focused, like task-oriented mentality, and it gets me in a more of a flow state. Um, so for you, it might be doing a quick meditation, it might be just putting your phone away for 30 minutes before you get home. But then before you do get home, I want you to envision how you want to show up for your family. I want you to think about the things you're gonna do and the things you're not gonna do. I want you to set those mental intentions before you walk through the door. And before you walk through the door, I want you to tell yourself, this is the fourth quarter, I'm gonna finish strong. You know, I want you to show up for your family the same way you do for a work uh meeting, you know, when you're when you're getting your guys all fired up to go out and make sales, or before you, you know, do content. If you're out there creating content, advertisements, and marketing, or before you go crush a hard leg day, you mentally prepare yourself. Whatever it is that requires the most of you in life, oftentimes you're thinking about it, you're mentally preparing yourself, you're getting pumped up to go out and crush that endeavor. I want you to focus the same mentality um as you do in those areas of life when you go home. And I want you to tell yourself, like, today I'm gonna do something to ensure my wife like admires me. I'm gonna make her just love me even that much more with the help I give her, the attention I have, uh, you know, just whatever it is that you need to do to like win her over that day, go into to your third that last third of the day, your fourth quarter, with that mentality. Like, what can I do today to make my wife admire me? And then the other thing I want you to think about is how can I bring joy to my kids' life? What can I do to make them laugh? What can I do to have fun with them? Like, I'm gonna be silly, I'm gonna be out of the box, I'm gonna do something that they wouldn't expect. And I'm telling you, each and every day you can do fun and exciting things with your family. Each and every day you can do something spontaneous with them, but it requires you to be intentional. There's some forethought here that goes into this, and again, this goes back to the morning routine. This is why I'm so diligent with my morning routine. I get up and I journal every day. And here's my my self-mastery guide. You guys can get this on Amazon. If you want a copy, let me know. I'll drop the link below. But there's mindset training and courses in the beginning to get you focused on your vision, your life by design, why that's important to you. And then in the back, there's 90 days of journaling. So in the morning, if you get up and you're intentional and you write down who you want to be, what you're gonna do that day, why it's important to you, and you're setting those mental intentions, you're way more likely to follow through with action. And the other thing I like about this journal is there's an evening section. And in the evening, you actually take inventory and it says on a scale of one to ten, how did you show up today? Rate yourself. One being poor, ten being great, and why? Did you get everything done that you were supposed to do? Did you have the best attitude? Did you give the best effort? Explain more down below. And it gives you an area to actually write out, you know, how you showed up and how that's affecting your loved ones and how that's contributing to the person you want to be in this life. So when you have these routines in place and you're living your life so intentionally day by day, and you have a plan that you can execute, you're living in thirds, like I mentioned. The first third of the day is to get your mind, your body, and your spirit primed and ready to go out and crush and achieve all your goals and show up as your best self. That second chunk of the day, that middle chunk, is for business growth, productivity. Let's go out and let's kill it. Let's achieve these goals, let's grow our business, let's make an impact. And then the third, the last third of the day is to be intentional with how you show up for your family, be present, bring that joy and that good energy that you cultivated in the morning into their lives and create unforgettable memories every day. This is a simple formula that you can execute 365 days a year that will massively improve the quality of your life. And you won't be one of those guys that has a bunch of money or a successful business, but estranged relationships like divorce and relationships with your kids that aren't really fulfilling, right? Uh, this is gonna allow you to crush it in business, be present for your family, also prioritize your health and be an example, not another fat dad, not another lazy dad. Like, I want you to be a superhero down for your kids. I want you to, you know, be an example for other men as well. And I want us all to set a high standard and show people what's possible in this life. So, you guys, structure your days and thirds. The first third of the days for yourself to get your mind, your body, your spirit primed to be elite that day, to be your best self. Second third is to crush it in business and continue to grow and scale the business, develop skills, do everything you gotta do to get ahead financially and business, and really turn those visions you have into reality. And the last third is to ensure that you don't overlook the precious moments with your family, and each and every day you're soaking them up. And if you can execute that over and over and over, you will create a life by design that you absolutely love and cherish, not a life that you're gonna look back with regret on one day. If this clip, if this message was valuable for you, do me a favor, share it, tag somebody, right, and go out and execute this formula in your own life.
