Introduction
There is no point in dwelling on or feeling bad about the aspects of our lives that we can't change.

When you change the way you wake up in the morning, you can change your entire life.

Rise Above Mediocrity
If we don't commit to thinking and living differently than most people, we are setting ourselves up to endure a life of mediocrity, struggle, failure and regret.
Causes of mediocrity:
- Rear-view Mirror Syndrome (believing who we were is who we are)
- Lack of purpose
- Isolating incidents (assuming that the choices we make and the actions we take only affect that particular moment)
- Lack of accountability
- Mediocre circle of influence
- Lack of personal development
- Lack of urgency to improve yourself
You Snooze, You Lose
When you delay waking up to the last minute by snoozing your alarm, you're resisting your life and creating negative energy for the rest of the day.
Tips to avoid snoozing⏰:
- Set your intentions before bed.
- Move your alarm clock across the room.
- Brush your teeth and splash water on your face.
- Drink a glass of water.
- Do some morning exercise.
6-Minute Miracle
If you have a busy day or if you can't find time in your schedule, then invest a minimum of 6 minutes for your morning ritual.
Minute 1: instead of rushing carelessly into your hectic day, spend the first minute in silence. Calm your mind, relax your body and try to meditate.
Minute 2: read your daily affirmations out loud.
Minute 3: close your eyes and visualize the day going perfectly and see yourself accomplish your goals.
Minute 4: write down things that you're grateful for and proud of.
Minute 5: read a book for a minute and learn a new idea.
Minute 6: spend the last minute exercising.
Successful people aren't born that way. They become successful by establishing the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don't like to do. Successful people don't like doing these things themselves; they just get on and do them.
