Monday Motivation

As suspected I didn’t end up waking up at five well I did but I just went back to sleep. Truth Be Told I didn’t actually get any quality sleep so it was a waste of time anyway I was just tossing and turning. Eventually got up at 8 o’clock I was angry with myself for not getting up when I woke up the first time. I just need to feel really tired when I wait by my alarm goes off at five at the moment. I must be getting broken sleep. Still managed to get some stuff done though put two lots of washing in a whole lot of washing away so I didn’t feel like I’ve completely wasted the morning. Went and picked on his prescription up from the vets and also started to fill in the claim form to claim the money back on the insurance. That’s something I’ve been putting off doing for a while and it was relatively straightforward to go honest.


On the way to the vets there had been an accident and there were police ambulance fire engines all at the scene and the road was cordoned off. Seen things like that really make you realise how lucky you are just to be okay and healthy. Somebody got up this morning expecting a great day and it’s turned out awful. Also saw on Facebook that the DJ guy that bought all my equipment when I retired has passed away he wasn’t very old at all. I don’t know the circumstances around his death but it was still sad to see somebody so young whose lives are just going out forever. Whenever I start to feel down and moan about things I need to remember these moments because it’s so easy to become complacent with your life take me to granted and complain about the little things when the world is your oyster if you choose to take advantage of it.


On the way to Cumbria to my appointment I started listening to a Mel Robbins YouTube video and I realise the problem with my rise at five is exactly what I did yesterday I hadn’t committed to it and I hadn’t visualise myself doing it so my brain doesn’t think I was going to do it if I didn’t do it. The whole thing about manifestation and visualisation is your brain doesn’t realise the difference between things that you visualise the picture happening and actual experiences you’ve done so if I pictured myself getting up at 5 am and all the steps I would take getting dressed having a shower et cetera my brain will think it’s already happened there for a more likely to see you again the next morning and get up as app visualised so tonight when I go to bed I’m going to visualise myself getting up at five doing all the things I want to do making the bed having a shower take the dog for a walk do my yoga at 7 o’clock and then let’s see if that works.


Here is the video I watched which you might find useful if you are lacking motivation:-

Today wasn't the best day for orders because I was running around on the last minute and so didn't have time to empty the boot of my car and load all my cases. Got to the appointment and did a quick Christmas giftwrap order and the customer asked to look at a couple of companies' everyday ranges. I didn't have them with me so potentially missed a couple of orders. He did say he would put an order together from the brochure but that's relying on him having time to do it.


Me & Jay had the chicken Massaman for dinner and it was pretty good, if I say so myself. I made a conscious effort to go to bed at 10pm and before I went to sleep I visualised what I would do in the morning.
