Here are some simple tips to try, to get your working mornings started in a positive way.

Leave your phone etc outside of the bedroom, removing temptation to browse etc.

Try an early morning gym class. This can take a little getting used to but can be so exhilarating.  
Organise your outfit and have ready the night before. 
Throw open your bedroom windows and breath in some clean fresh air. 
Organise your breakfast the night before if necessary, to give you time to eat without rushing. 
If you commute, this is a perfect time to listen to apps like Calm or Headspace. Also, reading a few chapters of a positive book can help start your day in a positive and balanced way.
