Sample Answers
Do you often get up early in the morning? Actually, I'm not a morning person, but I've been trying to develop a habit of waking up early, around 6:30 am. I find that it gives me a head start on my day, and I can get a lot done before the rest of the world wakes up. Plus, it's really quiet and peaceful, which helps me focus.
What do you usually do when you get up early? Well, the first thing I do is grab a glass of water and head to my desk to respond to any urgent emails or messages. Then, I spend some time planning out my day, making a to-do list, and prioritizing my tasks. Sometimes, I'll also squeeze in a quick workout or some meditation to get my blood pumping.
Do you get up early on the weekends? To be honest, I try to, but it's a lot harder on weekends. I mean, who doesn't love sleeping in, right? But I've found that if I don't get up at a decent hour, I end up wasting the whole day. So, I aim to get up around 8 or 9 am, and then I can still have a relaxing morning, but also get some stuff done.
Which weekday morning do you like the best? I'd say Tuesday mornings are my favorite. Mondays can be a bit of a drag, getting back into the swing of things after the weekend. And by Tuesday, I've got my momentum going, and I feel like I'm in a good rhythm. Plus, it's not quite the middle of the week yet, so I've still got a sense of purpose and motivation.
