I love the idea of a consistent morning routine prior to the workday. I don't love the idea of spending my whole morning on that routine. For those that have a short, effective morning routine, would you mind sharing?

I'll start with myself. Currently I wake up, drink a cup of water, jog a single mile (always outdoors), do yoga for 5 minutes (from a saved set of Youtube videos), meditate for 5 minutes, take a minute-long cold shower, and drink a hot cup of coffee.

I'm looking into data science bootcamps in NYC (or potentially online). Any suggestions for identifying the better ones (assuming they exist)? For example, I hear that bootcamp review sites lack objective reviews.

Also, do you know of anyone who has successfully full-time self-studied for a few months to obtain a entry-level position in the field (or a related title such as data analyst/ data engineer)? If so, it would be great to hear about their approach.

Over the next two to three months I would like to refresh my knowledge of core calculus.

It's been a while since I've studied math. Are there any recommended books (or other learning sources) that briefly refresh prerequisite knowledge along the way?

I would love to increase my early morning (~5AM to 7AM) productivity. However, my thinking is relatively sluggish in the hour up to two post waking up. Do you have any tips on how to shorten that period of natural sleep inertia that occurs when you wake up early? To let you know, I currently take a cold shower and drink bulletproof coffee.
