YGT Up Before The Sun Private Group
🌅 Up before the sun with gratitude on my mind.
I awoke this morning tired and sore, motivation at a deficit, and my bed is vigorously tempting me with the old “just 5 more”.
As I lay there contemplating my time, one of my mentors Eric Thomas comes into mind.
Also known as ET “The HipHop Preacher”, his charismatic style, passion, and ability to make topics and lessons relatable, through stories and metaphors is without peer. On this day, one such quote rings in my ear. He said,
“I’m not worried about some young cat coming for my spot! You see, to come for my spot, they are going to have to grind, get in the mud, they will have to outwork me! If that youngin is up working at 2:30 am every day, he can have my spot. Cause that's what it will take!”
At least that's how I remember it; please forgive me if I have parsed your words.
With renewed vigor, I pull myself from bed, replaying this challenge on repeat in my head. As I finish my workout, eat breakfast, and meditate, I look to the skies and offer this reply,
“I’m up every day at 2 am, and I'm on my way, I'm working, learning, getting sharper every day, and I will share the stage with you someday!”
Now beloved, I know that feeling of warmth under the blankets, that temptation to hit snooze, and the allure of just five more minutes. But today, let's choose a different path. It's a new day, and it's filled with endless possibilities waiting for us to seize.
Before you even step out of bed, express gratitude for this cozy haven that cradled your dreams. Feel appreciation for your legs that will carry you through the day, your arms ready for any challenge, and yes, even your bed that offered you sweet reprieve.
Now, let's set the tone for a successful day. Begin with gentle stretching to awaken your body and soul. Enjoy a nourishing morning snack that fuels your journey. Take a moment for meditation, connecting with your inner strength.
As you step outside, don't be discouraged by the rain or the gloomy sky. They're merely nature's backdrop to your story. Ignore that inner voice trying to convince you to stay in. Instead, grab your hoodie, feel the rain's champagne shower, and step out with confidence.
Remember, challenges like procrastination and complacency will try to steal your morning momentum. But you are stronger than they are. Rise above their tricks, for all you desire lies within your reach.
Should you ever doubt your worthiness or need a helping hand or a listening ear, I'm just a call or text away. Together, we'll conquer any morning blues. You Got This!
Embrace this day, beloved, as the incredible gift it is. Your potential knows no bounds. Have an amazing day! 🚀🌟
