Critique My Morning Routine For Actual Usefulness

You have a morning routine cobbled together from productivity videos and half of it might be doing nothing at all. Describe what you actually do and get a direct critique of what earns its place, what is habit for its own sake, and what is quietly working against you. Suits anyone who suspects their routine is more performance than function.

Describe your current morning routine step by step, from waking up to leaving the house or starting work. Act as a pragmatic productivity coach and critique it: which steps genuinely set up a better day, which are habit for habit's sake, and which are actively working against you, such as checking your phone first thing. Give the critique in under 150 words, direct and specific, no generic advice about drinking water.
