I woke up at 7 this morning wishing that I could fall back into a slumber and ignore the day's wake up call. But as soon as I gobbled up a medley bar, put my cosy coat on and entered the outside world at 8, a smile crept up on my face.
The morning was perfect. It was sunny, still very cold, but the sun was shining, about three people I walked past smiled and said good morning to me and I instantly perked up for the day.
After having a much needed coffee, and a great catch up with a friend, I walked back home and felt so much brighter. I wasn't in the least bit tired, which I usually am when I've woken up at 10 and haven't wandered outside until a lot later, and I had determination set in my mind to get things done. Which I did end up doing. It's difficult to wake up early sometimes, but it can definitely pay off once you're up.
A new goal of mine is to start waking up early and either go for a coffee or just set off on a brisk walk. Whether rain or shine. That is until I see the rain through my window and think ....ooo, maybe not today, it is raining.... but a goal is a goal; you can't always stick to it now can you? But at least I can aim for it.
