Day 9 - Even earlier

Finished my second self-help book.  My first one, 'Wait, What?' by James E. Ryan really helped me start thinking deeper, questioning more and asking the right questions.  It also turned me on to reading and listening more to self-help type books.  During the conference I went to earlier this month, one of the speakers suggested the second self-help book I have now finished and I am so glad she did.  I really, REALLY enjoyed it and I am so excited and ready to start implementing the things I learned in The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod.

I actually started getting up earlier and earlier, first because someone special came into my life and seeing him first thing in the morning on his way to work really starts my day in a very positive way.  But that is not the only reason.  Getting up 30 minutes to an hour earlier is part of the miracle morning practices...allowing on to get in time for 6 things that we otherwise don't make much time for but really help in improving ourselves and reaching new goals.  Today, I woke up at 5 AM without an alarm, even after going to bed at almost 11 PM last night.  I woke with a sense of excitement to get my day started and see what I could accomplish and I finished the book.  Now, I want to go back and reread all the notes I took the first time and see what else I can absorb reading it again.

This quote...

just seemed to resonate with me.  I truly believe that where I am today is a result of where I have been and what I have experienced in life and when asked if I could go back and change anything, would I my answer is always the same.  I would not change a thing as I love who and where I am today and I am on the road to where and who I want to be in the future.

If you get a chance, read or listen to the two books above.  They really are very empowering.
