It's a Beautiful Day

It's 7:30 and I've been up for 3 1/2 hours. I've never been the best sleeper, but this is early even for me. I woke up with a headache and a warm cat snuggled up to me. I woke up because my son had a nightmare. I'm grateful that he went back to sleep. A five year old short on sleep by a few hours is a sad thing, friends.

A yoga session and a cup of tea later, I wrapping my head around what needs to happen for the day.

I need to get into a routine. It's not enough to want something. Wanting isn't magic. It doesn't make things happen. The routine has to involve daily practice of what it is you want to achieve and until you do that, you are never going to achieve it.

So, today I will, as everyday, make sure I practice. And I will find time to play the ukulele while I'm at it. And I will remember that I want to approach everything I do with a positive attitude. You get to choose how you face things. You just don't get to always choose what it is you face. Keep your power by making the choice instead of defaulting in a way that will ultimately disappoint you.

And now, while the house is still sleeping, I will face the day!
