Michael Jordan: Daily Routine

Michael Jordan didn’t just dominate the NBA — his 5 a.m. workouts, no-days-off mindset, and tunnel vision defined what greatness looks like.

There have been countless great basketball players in history. From Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, to the late, great Kobe Bryant and the reigning king of the sport, Lebron James. But there was just something extraordinarily special about Michael Jordan.

It was more than just the accomplishments — six NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP) Awards, ten scoring titles (both all-time records) and five MVP Awards to name a few. It was more than just the global shoe brand, which Nike has paid him an estimated $1.3 billion since 1984. Above all, it was his laser-like focus and unwavering work ethic that resulted in the movie-esque quality of his career story.
