How to get going in early morning

The questions was asked, "How do I get going early in the mornings?"

Steps to rising early:

1.  Set the alarm clock for the same time each morning.
2.  Have the alarm put in a place where you must get out of bed to turn it off.
3.  Don't get back in bed {You will be tempted if this has not become your normal routine}
4.  Visit the bathroom {Get dressed. This makes it harder for you to get back into the bed}
5.  Head for the coffee pot, Bible and so forth {Yes, I do it in that order}
6.   If you fail.  Try again tomorrow.
   
Remember—

Mornings are the most profitable. I think this is the time when we are most energized making it much easier for more things to be done.

It takes time to prepare our minds for the day, so rising early gives us the jump start we need.

Note:  I try to make sure to have everything that I'll need for the morning ready at night.
Just as we don't change all at once, so we don't swallow all of truth in one gulp.  We are simple people.  You can't remember ten things at once.  Invariably, if you could remember just one true thing ... you'd be different. ~ Daivd Powlison
