I have never been a morning person, I remember my mom dragging me out of bed every morning for school… ugh I hated life at least until it was 11 in the morning.
30 years later, I’m still in the same boat. I hate mornings, I don’t like to wake up, it’s almost like the bed feel much better once the clock get around 5am. I’ve been challenging myself to wake up a few minutes early to spend some time with God, meditate on the word and get my mind right for the day. So far it’s been a hit or miss, more misses than hits actually.
a few hours ago, more like yesterday I was on a twitter chat with a few ladies discussing ways to wake up in the morning.
some if the tips were : loud alarm, get a dog LOL, getting to know sleep cycles and so forth.
The things is, for me it’s not about waking up at all, its about getting out of bed. I wake up minutes before my alarm goes off, I’m ready to switch it off at first ring. Sometimes I’ll go back to sleep sometimes I just lay there idle unable to push the covers off and and put my feet on the ground.  One of the ladies shared that she was the same way but will bounce outta bed if she had something exciting to do…ME TOO!
So the issue is not waking up at all! It’s lack of excitement about the day… now how do I make my days exciting to the point I’d wanna get outta bed early to start the day?
I don’t know! Any ideas? Chime in!

I came accross a study that suggest that the frontal lobe of our brain is voice activated. As you begin to say something, the brain is set in motion to make it happen.
EXAMPLE: I say I’m tired, the brain start getting the body ready for rest… since most of the time we still have to go through the work day and our activities we ended up sleepy, dragging and… well tired.

Remind me of Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.”

WOW! I can turn my day around by speaking and believing the right stuff.

In the light of this awesome revelation, I’m taking on the challenge of making my Mondays better.
My Mondays are always hard and gloomy, it’s hard to wake up, I miss the weekends, I miss my kids. Since there is nothing I can do about my Mondays I can change the way I respond to my Mondays and every other day.

1. Today is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it
2. Everyday is a good day to give thanks unto the Lord
3. Being grateful result in happiness
4. Count your blessings, name them one by one And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Counting my blessings

What can you be grateful for? can you find one good thing to focus on for today? I do

There’s a WordPress app folks! What? Where have I been? I was thinking how cool it would be if I could blog about stuff the minute I thought about right through my phone… then I remember that apple commercial:

There’s an app for that

So my first move was to check the google play store and…. yeah! There is an app for that!!!
A WordPress App for even self hosted blogs. You can add multiple blogs and do basically anything you would normally do on your admin site. Adding pictures is a breeze, which is awesome since I take most pictures with my phone. That’s the best news I’ve got about blogging since Google takes away Google Friend Connect from WordPress sites.
Why didn’t anybody tell me about this?
Have you guys used this?
Well if you didn’t know, now you know!
Big kuddos to the wordpress team!
