Day 1 - Early rising.

Finally, after several failed tries..... I did it today. I woke up at 5:00am. Yes, really!! Bright and early. I didn't get off the bed until 5:30 though. My kid was up with me. So, I had to help her go back to sleep.
I was doing everything leisurely. But, I have a long way to go to savor the quiet time.
That means, packing lunches the night before. Having an empty kitchen sink and a clean counter to let me enjoy cooking. It takes discipline and focus. For some, its part of what they do. I admire them and I want to be like them. They do everyday chores at ease, like it is done by Habit. I learnt last night( was listening to David Allen's - Getting Things Done) that it takes 2 yrs to learn a habit. So, it'll take 2 yrs from today for early rising to become a habit and with it goes my "No TV", clean kitchen, organized closet: focused office work.. Everything! I didn't learn bad habit overnight. So, I don't expect any change overnight, although I would love to. But, I have to keep myself motivated throughout this PROCESS. How? I read as much as I can, listen to whoever has done this before, talk it with my partner who has seen it all :-) He is my pillar. He knows, Im trying. He seen me fail more than twice. He always encourages me to be better, 'for Im capable of doing it all'. Its his words *not* mine... . He believes in me more than I do. Im truly blessed and thankful in that respect!!

I have just taken the first step of the new monthly challenge: Waking up at 5. Apri 16 - May 16.
I believe that waking up early will open up doors like never before. So, here is to the new challenge...!!
