Do you feel tired throughout the day? Learn the secret 20/20/20 formula from the '5 AM Club', which the world's most successful people use to increase their productivity 10-fold.

Waking up at this time and following a specific routine (the 20/20/20 rule) can increase a person's concentration, creativity, and energy levels by up to 100% compared to the average person. This isn't just a habit of waking up early, but a scientific method for reprogramming the brain for success.

Why do the world's most successful people wake up at 5 am?

Whether it's Apple's Tim Cook or Disney's Bob Iger, most of the world's most successful leaders are members of the "5 AM Club." The reason behind this is a scientific condition called "Transient Hypofrontality."

At 5 a.m., your brain's prefrontal cortex (the area responsible for worry and reasoning) is quiet. In this quiet, your subconscious is most active, allowing you to come up with ideas and solutions that wouldn't be possible during a noisier day.

The '20/20/20 Rule': The Real Formula of the 5 AM Club

According to Robin Sharma, waking up at 5 AM and having coffee isn't enough. You need to divide the first 60 minutes into three equal parts (time, activity, impact):

• First, spend 20 minutes exercising hard and working up a sweat. This increases dopamine and serotonin in the body, eliminating lethargy.
• Spend the next 20 minutes meditating, reflecting, or keeping a diary. This can help bring mental clarity and reduce stress throughout the day.
• The last 20 minutes should be focused on reading and learning new skills, this increases knowledge and keeps you ahead of others.

Rohan explains, "The first four days were very difficult, but by the second week, my creativity was at its peak. What used to take me 10 hours was now accomplished in three peaceful hours in the morning. Within 21 days, I not only landed a new project, but I also lost 3 kg." This experience proves that experience and effort are the true criteria for success.
