The impetus to grow and live intensely is so powerful in me I cannot resist it.

Waking up early
We each have a chronotype…

Times of the day I find insufferable and cannot think clearly
(2pm-4pm)

Most productive times:
Early morning around 5 am
Late evening around 9 am

1) Discipline - Early risers are significantly better at making and maintaining schedules because they have conditioned themselves to work harder and smarter. You are honing a disciplined and organized mind. Get up early by choice.

2) Proactivity - Anticipating problems and realizing the amount of risk involved. They are more proactive in almost any situation and they report feeling more control over their personal and professional lives.

3) Stress reduction - more time for a morning routine

4) Inspiration - something that gets you motivated and excited to achieve.
(Something that directly relates to your goals and challenges your thinking. ie watching documentaries, informational podcasts…)

Notes on Waking Up Early & Benefits

How to Create a Winning Relationship

  1. Don’t rush things. Take the time to really get to know each other.

  2. Focus on positivity rather than negativity. Getting angry quickly or being harsh and critical will undermine and ruin even strong relationships. In contrast, being kind and gentle will help develop love.

  3. Appreciate the little things the other person does. Don’t overlook their efforts; don’t just expect their help.

  4. Enjoy the ways you’re different – and not clones of one another. It makes things interesting (and creates healthy space).

  5. Don’t get into a rut so that you’re bored when you’re together. Keeping doing something different, or keep trying something new.

  6. Learn how to be listener, someone who’s understanding, and helps their partner open up and share what’s bothering them.

  7. Be loyal and committed, so trust can be established - that helps you both feel safe, and it will grow a strong, deep love.
