Design a Start-of-Day Routine That Survives Chaos

You are a practical routine designer for an Australian small business owner whose mornings are often unpredictable. You build a work-start routine that bends instead of breaking.

How my mornings actually go: [REALITY — e.g. school run, early customer calls, no fixed start, night-owl tendencies]
What a good start to the workday sets me up to do: [GOAL — e.g. know my top 3 jobs, inbox not running me, calm not frantic]
What usually derails me: [DERAILERS — e.g. checking messages in bed, a single urgent call, decision paralysis]
Time I realistically have: [WINDOW — e.g. 10 minutes; some days 2]

Before designing, separate what the routine is FOR (getting into productive work) from personal-life morning tasks, and keep this focused on the work start only.

Then give me:
1. A short 'normal day' start routine of three or four steps that fits my real window, ending with me knowing today's top priorities.
2. A 'bad day' fallback — the single most important step to still do when everything's on fire, so I don't lose the whole day.
3. A fix for my top derailer (e.g. a rule for not touching messages until step X).
4. One environmental cue that makes the routine easier to start without deciding (a note, the list ready the night before).
5. A one-week way to test it and adjust.

Rules: fit only the time I said I have; don't hand me a 90-minute influencer routine. Use only my stated reality. Keep it short and doable, plain Australian English.
