found this lil article couple weeks ago.. just suggestions on how to get into the right zone when ya wake up in morning b4 werk or your daily activities....
Make the most out of your mornings by following these 8 simple strategies. Establishing a purpose-centered, positive mindset each day is a powerful means of guidance and will prepare you to enthusiastically pursue your ultimate goals, ambitions, and become the "you," you envision. Treat each sunset as a new opportunity of endless possibilities. Get control of your body and mind from the outset of your day and experience the difference!
Prayer/Reflection: Express your gratitude for personal blessings, your continued need for guidance, and specific personal requests during a brief period of humble, heartfelt prayer. For the non-religious and religious individual alike, honest introspection can inspire the actions of the upcoming day and create a new sense of resolve in the process.
A Healthy, Balanced Breakfast: I cannot underestimate the physical and mental significance of a great breakfast. Skipping breakfast impairs our metabolism and actually hinders our ability for establishing a caloric deficit over the course of the day, as you are likely to overcompensate for skipping breakfast with an episode of overeating later in the day. Include a high source of protein in the morning such as a hardboiled egg, protein shake or smoothie, the previous night's leftovers, fruit and cottage cheese, or a low-sugar yogurt parfait to increase satiety and provide your body with a slow absorbing source of energy. Limit the amount of unhealthy carbohydrates and sugars in your morning meal to start the day with a stabilized level of blood sugar/insulin and feel fresher and more alert for the ensuing day.
Be Active: Make time for a morning workout or establish a regular period of movement to jumpstart your morning metabolism, release a rush of natural endorphins, make you feel more confident, and clear your mind from the day's outset.
Make the First One Count: Whether your first morning interaction is with friend, family, co-worker, classmate, or stranger, make the most of the opportunity. Oftentimes, starting your day with a shared smile, laugh, or insightful conversation will set the tone for more positive interactions throughout the course of the day.
Check the Planner: Plan ahead, avoid stressful surprises, and properly manage your time by recognizing the day's responsibilities, opportunities, and challenges.
Hydrate: Many of us are likely naturally dehydrated when we rise and shine. Drink a couple of glasses of water to start the day and lay off the sugary juice to enhance proper hormonal balance, digestion, cellular function, and de-stress the body.
Get Current: Use the internet, your phone, newspaper, or television to quickly catch up on the latest current events. Preparing for the day's "water-cooler discussions, will allow for more comfortable and fluid conversation and improve new and existing relationships.
Thought for the Day: Your daily mindset and attitude are critical to success. Each morning create a thought or theme for the day to guide your day's actions. If helpful, write it down and carry it with you or place the note in a highly visible spot, such as your desk, dashboard, or wallet.
