On starting your day early...
Get up when you wake up, and wake up when you get up.
Those sleeping later typically consume around 250 more calories a day, eat twice as much fast food and only eat half of the fruits and vegetables of those going to bed early and arising early based on a 2011 study from Northwestern University.
The difference between rising at five and seven o’clock in the morning, for forty years, supposing a man to go to bed at the same hour at night, is nearly equivalent to the addition of ten years to a man’s life.”
~Philip Doddridge
There is something about the stillness of the morning that generates greater positive thoughts, ideas and inspiration.
I would have it inscribed on the curtains of your bed and the walls of your chamber: “If you do not rise early you can make progress in nothing.” ~William Pitt Chatham
