| GET UP EARLY!
Save the excuses. “I’m not a morning person, I don’t sleep well, I’m a night owl…”
If you need more time in the day to get things done & make changes, you need to get up earlier. If you want to make a change, you will. If you don’t want it, you won’t. It’s that simple. Successful people get up early – (it’s the only way to add more hours to the day) – & take care of their business. And you can, too. You may be tired or have trouble adjusting for a day or two, but it is worth it. I read that 90% of executives wake up before 6am on weekdays & 50% of self-made millionaires wake up at least 3 hours before their workday begins – (applicable to however you define ‘workday’ – 9 to 5, work-at-home, full-time parent included).
I have found it helpful to use a little positive self-talk when I wake up & have the option to stay in bed, hit snooze, or get going…I say this to myself every morning:
“I’m up, I’m up, I’m up! My goals are important to me”. And my feet hit the floor.
So before saying you don’t have time, make the commitment & gift yourself the time to be productive by getting up a little early. |
