When you woke up this morning what was the very first thought that went through your head? Do you remember? I hope you remember and I hope it wasn’t “ahhhhh just give me 10 more minutes” as you hit the snooze button on your alarm clock. I hope that when you woke up, you sat straight up, give yourself a good stretch while you thanked what ever greater being you see higher than yourself for GIVING you this wonderful, beautiful day. A day full of opportunity and adventure.

This is actually the most critical point in you day. I don’t care if you some huge multi-million dollar meeting scheduled for today, the moment you wake up is more important. Why? Because it sets the mood for the rest of your day. If you wake up on the “wrong side of the bed” as they say then you are probably going to be on the wrong side all day long. At least it’s more of a challenge to get back to the right side.

Waking with an attitude of gratitude, and being able to carry what with you through out your day, is going to make things so much easier for you. People want to be around you… people want to do things for you. You’re someone people want to be around and to be associated with. When you wake and walk within a positive energy, you attract the same to yourself. So, that million dollar meeting you have scheduled for later in the day is ‘make or break’, based on how you get your butt outta bed!
