Miracle Morning Day #1

Miracle Morning Day #1

Woke up at 5 a.m. this morning. I read about half the book last night until 11:30 and then read a few chapters out of Romans so I didn't go lights out until a little after midnight.

It was very strange to be as excited as I was to wake up at 5:00, yes kind of like anticipating Christmas morning. I didn't sleep much, a little better than normal. But it wasn't a restless, frustrating sleep either.

First big thanks to Chris Diaz for introducing me to The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod. I read through Chapter 5 last night and I am certain I will finish the book today.

I started the morning by drinking 8 oz of water with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice (which I will from hear on out refer to as ACVL) and then another 8 oz of water. I read somewhere that this was a Japanese formula for weight loss and energy, 16 oz of water first thing in the morning and then nothing else for 45 minutes.

Then I hit my knees and prayed to God followed by my affirmations, which I want to refine even further, especially to make it more custom to me. After I prayed, I sat in silence and really tried to keep my mind clear and focus on the sounds around me. I really tried hard to keep my thoughts from speaking.

When I am done journaling, I will create today's Morning Motivation and then I will exercise.

Yesterday was a very good day. I spent most of the day with Ittai buying and cooking food for the impromptu get together at his mom's, it was Labor Day. Great turnout, food was awesome, and it was really nice to spend family time with them.

I am looking forward to how this day progresses. I can't believe I have been up for an hour already! All glory to God! He is so awesome, and so awesome to me!
