Week 2 - Thursday

 Hello!

It's another early morning for me. Setting my alarm before 6, just so I can snooze it a few times has been working. 

I've managed to get out of bed by 6:10-6:15, and I still find myself thinking that it isn't enough time to do what I want to do. I need to start getting up earlier but I want to master 6am before I attempt anything earlier. What do you think?

This week I asked my friends on social media what time they get up, and why.

A majority of the people who answered were already getting up at 7am or as early as 4am!

But what I found was that only 2 of them were doing it for themselves.

About 99% of them were getting up early for a work commute or their children, and there's nothing wrong with that at all. I personally think that as long as you're productive when you wake up, that's all that matters. 

When you have kids it makes it a bit more difficult to wake up and spend an hour or so just on yourself. My friend who is keeping me accountable, has 2 kids, 2 and younger, and she says as long as you get something done, you're in good shape. And I would have to agree.

Sorry about the longer post today. I wanted to tell you the results of my poll!

I hope your week is going amazing.

Tell me in the comments what time you wake up, and why?

Life Changes

The year 2018 was not a good year for me. Two things that will send someone into a crippling depression happened to me... As I am still healing from this most recent one, I don't want to go into much detail. But for the rest of this post to make sense you'll need to know that Vincent and I are no longer together, after 8 years.. As time goes by I expect I will be able to open up about it. The past few years I have been stagnant. I still started a Master's program and got a new job as a manager, but I was just existing. I wasn't actually living my life. At the beginning of October I started a 6 week fitness challenge at a CrossFit gym in town. I lost 15 pounds and began to love myself again. But I still wasn't happy. It took the earth shattering, heart breaking, event to make me realize that I needed to do something about the way I have been living. I was one of those people who got up, went to work, came home and sat on the couch watching TV and waiting for the ...

Positivity

Warning : There is rambling. We are asked the same question over and over again while we become adults: When we are younger we say things like: Race car driver and Magician! Little do we know that our ideas on what we want to be in the future rarely stick. When I was a child I wanted to be a teacher, I think it was because I loved school and I respected my teachers, I looked up to them.  But as time went on, school wasn't so much fun anymore, it was more about discipline and our times tables. (You know, the hard stuff). I didn't like my teachers as much as I used to, so my dream of being a teacher changed pretty quickly. Of course, as I got older my dream job kept changing, it wasn't until my 13th birthday that I found the thing that stuck, Photography. My step dad bought me a Canon (I know, I know, gross) for my birthday. I took so many pictures!! And I was sure that photography was my thing, no one else's. ...

American Ninja Warrior

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is having a great summer! Did you notice something different about tonight's post? Well, if you are an avid reader, I'm sure you have. Tonight's post's title is not a Coldplay song. (That sentence came out weird). I'm sitting here next to my mother watching a TV show called "American Ninja Warrior" Have you guys seen this show?? In my opinion it is Wipeout on steroids. Now, I'm sure the competitors aren't on steroids, it's just an expression. People from all over the country train for years (no joke) to get a shot at a million dollars. They go through these crazy obstacles trying to get the best time for completing the course. The top ten competitors from the semi-finals compete at "Mount Midoriyama" in Japan, which is the "birth place" of Ninja Warrior. I'm posting a short video so you guys can see what I'm talking about.   Check this out This show is truly amazing, s...
