I need to do this! 4 months ago

I was reading other comments from this goal, and realized a big obstacle for me is that I love being up at night alone and away from the world, kind of decompressing the day and being alone with my thoughts…

But the times I have started the habit of waking up early, I feel that you do get a little alone time (drinking tea in the morning quiet, going for a morning walk) but also mixed with a cool feeling of community with the other early risers (waving hello to other people out on their morning run for example, or people on the earlier train to work). For some reason I feel like early risers have a go-gettum energy that is nice to be a part of. The thing about morning “alone time” also for me is that it makes me feel proud of myself, and more in control of my day, than night “alone time”. I may always enjoy the night alone moments more than morning, but the tired feeling all the next day isnt worth holding onto. WIsh me luck!!



restart! 4 months ago

I have been abandoning this for a while and I really would like to do it. I feel like when I get up early, it effects the entire day with such a good positive energy, even if all I do with the extra time is dress nicely, do my makeup and watch a little morning TV. Even better would be getting up early enough to run outside, or stretch, or write, or read or walk to work, etc etc. It’s about 9PM here and I am planning on going to bed after I am off this site.

My plan for tomorrow is to get up at 5:30 and go running. Wish me luck!
