It always amazes me to hear of the individuals that are willing to rise at 4AM to "hit the gym". I have never heard a person claim to get up at 4AM to "read a book". Your brain is just a muscle. Remember the old saying if you don't use it you loose it? It works just the same. When you wake up in the morning you should warm up your brain just like warming up before a jog. We do that in training classes using daily affirmations. We start with something positive in the  morning. How do you start your mornings? Start it with the right attitude. Have a great day.
