Get up! Get going! For those trying to achieve success early in the day
Good day maties! Arrgh!
So ye want to make money but ye don't want to get out of bed , eh? It is time to ask-- Do ye really want to walk the plank????
Sorry, feeling like a little Pirates of the Caribbean. Figured it's a good day to get my Johnny Depp on! You can pretty much never go wrong with Depp. Now, back to what I was saying.....
Getting up in the mornings can be a pain and I know because I am definitely not a morning person. Although it is a struggle, if you truly wish to accomplish anything then you need to fight the urge of staying under the covers. Yes I know, you have been in a relationship with your bed since you were born and you feel a real connection between the two of you. Always keeping you warm, giving you the love you deserve, so soft, never talking back. Yea, yea, yea, that's all mashed potatoes with a side of gravy but ask yourself this.... does your bed plan on paying your bills, is it going to fly you to top destinations , help you make the fullest of your life?
Get up! Get going! You can do it trust me, I have faith in you. Open your curtains slightly before you go to bed at night, so that way when the sun starts beaming in you have a natural but gentle way of being woken up.Stop putting your alarm clocks and cell phones next to your bed. Instead place them across the room so when they go off or make a sound you then have to get up if you want something done about it .Start going to bed at a decent time and getting up just a bit earlier. Do you really want to pay the price for no sleep? Body aching , feeling like you aged 20 yrs in one night, drained and exhausted.Stop all that mess and start treating your body right. You will have no motivation to be successful if everyday you feel like you have been hit by a Mac truck.You want your body to feel rested and ready to take on the world.
Working during the day is great, that is if you get up and do what you are supposed to. If you wake up float around the house staring at walls like you had no idea paint existed, then you will accomplish nothing. If you spend three hours deciding if you want cream in your coffee and refusing to get dressed like a three year old toddler, then you will accomplish nothing.
C'mon follow me....and one , two , three GOOOOOO ! Get up, grab your morning beverage without taking 40 minutes to do so and get dressed. Some of you are probably thinking (but Jenna I work from home , I thought that meant I could wear my P.J's all day!) Sure you can, but you know what happens... YOU GET COMFORTABLE! When we get comfortable we stopping putting in as much effort and start slacking. We stop seeing things as an opportunity and start seeing them as a two hour a week hobby. DRESS FOR SUCCESS REGARDLESS! It is easy to speak words about success but it's another thing to live up to the part. Let's make the most of your time and bring you a life enriched with success <3
In conclusion - All I am asking is that you give yourself the opportunity to make something happen in your life. Let go of the relationship between you and your bed. That soft inviting connection will still be there when you are ready to go back to bed at the end of a nice full day of accomplishments. Think about it as in a " you are making your relationship healthier prospective!"

Thank you for a great and inspiring post. Working at home can easily make you too comfortable and forget the importance of putting much effort to become successful. We all need a wake-up call to remind us of that. Thanks!
You are certainly welcome.Sometimes all it takes is a little nudging from a fellow supporter of your success. I'm glad you enjoyed the post and I am here if you ever need friendly reminding or support to help you be your best. :)
A great inspiring post and a very good read, indeed.
This is exactly where I would like to be in my life, you have hit the nail on the head.
Only we can make it happen I know.
The best of luck to you.
Cheers, Tosh :)
Thank you so much. This is what I having been trying to reach for a long time and I am so glad I have made it here. There was a time when I did not understand these things and yet wondered why I failed so much. I am just glad that I can share my thoughts with others and point them in the right direction so they don't waste as much time as I did and have to look back and wonder why they let that happen. I have faith in you and you can def be there in your life. Stay motivated and reach as far as the stars will take you and whatever you do... do not allow others to sidetrack your destiny or try to change your course .You can do this and if you need someone to remind you, I'm only a message away. :)

Hi Jenna, I am sure you heard the proverb "The early bird catches the worm". Meaning "Success comes to those who prepare well and put in effort". You reap what you sow. Life is very harsh and unforgiving at times. You can chose to lace around enjoying life now and suffer later when you grow old. Or work hard now while you are young with full of energy and age gracefully when you are old with your accumluated wealth.
Put a carrot in front of you each time you take action to complete a meaning task. Read about the life of successful people. Emulate and aspire to be like them. These are a couple of things you can cosider. You may even share your achievement and blog about how you over come those obstacles. Who knows one day you can turn it into an ebook and make some money out from it.
I have this slogon to share with you.
"It's a great day to get out and take adsvantage of the opportunties the world has to offer." This is from Zig Ziglar "Steps to the Top". He is one of my favaourite author and motivational mentor. [Kelsey]
