I’ve always coached people on “waking up for yourself.”
But I’m going to put an asterisk* on that now.
My 11 week old pup Maisy has made her entrance into my life & I am absolutely not waking up for myself anymore!
I am waking up to take care of her (and admittedly so she doesn’t have an accident in my house)!
There’s a selflessness that’s come over me since I’ve gotten her.
It challenges what I always thought about waking up for myself and gives me MORE purpose to get out of bed!
I take care of her and then we snuggle up & do my morning routine!
So I challenge you to…
LIKE WHO OR WHAT YOU'RE WAKING UP FOR
Many of us wake up for work.
If you’re happy with that reason, great!
If not, you can change it!
Wake up for:
-Yourself
-Your partner
-Your pet
-Your kids
-Your dream side project
Whatever or whomever gives you the drive to get out of bed!
And if it is someone else, still pouring into yourself in some small way in the morning is a beneficial way to start the day.
Make YOU the priority early on in the day so you don’t get lost in the list of everything else!
