What is the price of success?
Sometimes it’s as little as setting your alarm to go off early in the morning and get you up.
But there’s no reason to pay more than that. It’s true. The complexities of success lie in the simplicity of waking up.
Ironically, the earlier we get up, the sooner we begin to wake up.That is the magic of 5 am.
How many of us sleep until the last possible moment. Then dive headlong into work, march around all day hard at work.
Leaving you drained after that hectic day, at last, to collapse from exhaustion? Another workday spent helping others achieve their dreams without taking one step in the direction of our own.
Yet, many of us have programmed ourselves to live this type of life. Day after day. To the #FreshTakers still schooling, apply the above to your typical day at school.
There is a better way. By rising early and starting the day on our time, we reward ourselves first. We give the best of ourselves to ourselves – FIRST.
By beginning each day by filling our own cup to overflowing, we have something to share with others when we march off into the day.
Arising for an early walk gives us the entire world to enjoy for ourselves. It’s never crowded at 5 am.
The air is fresher. You get to witness the first orange rays of sunrise. Even if you skip the walk, just getting up to a peaceful calmness is everything.
We start the day refreshed. Relaxed. Inspired. Rising early is like giving yourself a Saturday/Sunday morning every day of the week.
There’s time to read. To learn. To plan. To dream. To do whatever you please. With no interruptions. No daytime demands will creep in. It’s your time.
Thoughts are never clearer than after an early morning. We can achieve more progress toward our dreams spending 30 pre-dawn minutes jotting ideas down, than a month of rushing around during daylight hours.
You’ll think of ways to do your job better. Or perhaps even think of ways to find a better job, or a new business.
Take away the rush of daytime pressures. Everything begins with an idea, and ideas come from calm, relaxed thinking. The cost of this plan will you reap vast rewards.
You’ll go to bed with anticipation. You will see a new zest in yourself. Your attitude will improve because when you feel right, the world looks right. You will be improving yourself, your way, every day.
You will see yourself begin taking steps toward your wildest dreams and find them coming closer fast!
As you improve, you will be shocked at what you can actually achieve.You will begin to realise just how little of yourself you’ve been tapping into. You will realize you’d been asleep. Waking up, begins with getting up.
