Day Twelve - Why Do I Get Up Early




There's plenty of time to sleep when you are dead.
                                                    -- Benjamin Franklin

Friday today. No Classes for Bcom students.
I managed to get up at 8.
I drank some milk last night, put my alarm in my living room, and got up right away.
Things are getting better.
I almost get there, as long as I can be persistent.
I found a meaningful video on Youtube named how to get up early.
It said getting up early is not only a competitive advantage, it's also a great gift to yourself because you get more life.

I thought it carefully about the reasons to get up early.
What makes me want to get out of my bed each every single day? To throw the blanket off, to turn my side, to sit up, to put my feet on the floor and stand out of the bed?
What makes me do that?

In the video, the man said: when you look at  the best of best, whether it's in business, in science, in arts, in sports, these are people who have ever trained their brains to show up a discipline. Beckham practiced to be the world class of footballer;  Hamilton Lewis practiced to be a world class of car racer; Mozart practiced to be a world class of composer.

Everyone must something eager to see each every single day.
Everyone must have something in life that is worth waking up for. 
For career? For loved one? For study? Or just want to see the next day?
At this stage, school is my reason to get up. Get up when my competitors are asleep and use the extra time to practice and prepare.
Life is too short. I should take every advantage of every single moment.
Never let the moment passes me by.
Life is like a movie, in the end, I want to make sure it is worth watching.
