Why do I get up at 5am.. determination
Why do I get up at 5 am....determination
I am up every morning, 5 days a week at 5 am to be at the gym by 5:30. Why? Is the question I get asked so many times. It's because I am determined, because I want to, I need to do this.
I have been a writer since I learned how to write, it's something I loved to do but life got in the way, I didn't think I was good enough, I had bills to pay, I had a family, you name it and that was my excuse.
It was a hobby, it kept me sane during hard times in my life, writing about my feelings but I never thought I could do this everyday.
It wasn't until I hit rock bottom yet again, that I wanted to reach out to others about my struggles and how I overcame them.
It gave me a renewed strength to keep going, to show others if I can do this, so can you. I realized that I would have to sacrifice something in order to do this and I was determined to do this, so that is what I did. I made a concious choice to get up at 5 am, to not only do this but to do something healthy as well.
I write this blog every day while I walk 4 miles on the treadmill. Yes, I am one of multitaskers. Look the way I see it we only got 24 hours a day and we need to make the most of it as I don't have much time left.
I want this, I want to become a number one international blogger, I want to be a New York times bestselling author, I want to be on the women of faith tour, I got big dreams and time is not working for me at this point but against me. So I gotta get at it and do it now.
Do I like getting up that early? Oh fuck no, it sucks. I'd rather be in my third dream, warm under the covers but if I want this I have to be determined. I have to be uncomfortable, I have to step out of my box, I have to learn to be the best I can be.
You can't sleep in and be lazy and then hate on the 1% that is getting it done, that has the success you want. Trust and believe they are not sleeping in, they are not playing games or chatting or watching TV all night. After their 9 to 5 jobs, they are hustling, they are taking classes or like me last night after a full day of work, doing homework for a class that I know will do big things in my future.
It's about priorities, what is important to you? If watching TV from 6 PM to 11 PM is your priority, don't complain that you have nothing, that your life isn't changing. I haven't watched TV since my divorce. Yes, I still have 2 of my favorite
shows I binge watch on a occasional lazy day but for the most part, I am writing. I am working on my bigger picture, doing research, taking classes, listening to motivational videos of the people I want to become like.
Yes, I am a beast because you have to be in order to get the things you want, done. You can't sleep in, no matter how much you would like to.
Look Olympic athletes do not become the best in the world without sacrifice. They are up early, they have little sleep, they train until they cry because of the pain but the one thing they all have is determination. They are determined to be the best in the world and no matter what they have to endure, they will do it. Same with you, how bad do you want it? How much are you willing to sacrifice? How much sleep? How much pain in the no's? How much not watching TV or hanging out with friends? How much determination do you have?
So today my friends, remember the next time you ask me or someone like me why do we get up so early or grind so hard, it's because we are determined. I get up at 5 am because determination woke me up.
You can do this, trust me after 21 days it will become a habit and you will be jumping out of bed, it's all up to you....and as I say in the end of every one of my blogs...
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
