The Miracle Morning does both, and faster than you ever thought possible. I highly recommend Hal Elrod’s latest book.” —TIM SANDERS, NY Times bestselling author of The Likability Factor “The Miracle Morning is literally the ONE thing that will make immediate and profound changes in any—or every area of your life. If you really want your life to improve, read this book immediately.” —RUDY RUETTIGER, the Notre Dame football player who inspired the hit Hollywood movie RUDY “At first I thought Hal had lost his mind—why on earth would anyone get up so early on a regular basis?!?!

The Miracle Morning will show you how to take control of your life, regardless of your past. I highly recommend it.” —JOSH SHIPP, TV show host, author, and teen behavior expert “To read The Miracle Morning is to give yourself the gift of waking up each day to your full potential.
