Face
it. There are mornings when you just
feel plain lazy. You refuse to get out
of the bed, bargain with your alarm clock for some extra snooze, and feel so
slow for the first few hours of the day.
On worst cases, you may not feel like showing up for work, and decide to
just enjoy the day inside the comforts of your home.

So,
how can you beat this state of mind? How
can you push yourself to rise up early when necessary, feel energetic to report
for work or school, and happily tread your way on your day’s to-do list.

Do
Not Snooze.

The
alarm goes off. What do you do?

Don’t
even think about hitting the snooze button, and get up immediately. Studies claim that sneaking in addition sleep

Instead
of using the first few moments of your waking time with a self-debate of
whether you should get up or stay in bed a little longer, use it to open your
eyes and take in the beauty of the morning, and then do some stretching. This will help wake your body up, loosen your
muscles and increase flexibility.

Stretch
and Work Out.

Stretching
leads us to my second tip, and that is to do some morning exercise! It may be an early morning stroll or walk
along the neighborhood or a jog.
Exercise pumps oxygenated blood to our tired cells. Exercise and stretching are the perfect
activities to release your energy and prevent you from feeling dragged or
lethargic in the next hours of the morning.

Take
an Energizing Breakfast.
an Energizing Breakfast.
An
energizing breakfast is complete with whole wheat grains, fruit such as banana,
egg, combined with a glass of orange juice for some Vitamin C or a cup of
tea. This kind of well-balanced
breakfast gives fuel to the body so that it can keep you going through the day.

Lose
yourself in the Music.
yourself in the Music.
Music
has a powerful effect on the body.
Various studies prove this, too. It
can make you feel calm, wild, or energetic.
In the morning, why not try listening to some of your favorite cheerful
tunes? Not only can this help put you in a good mood. It can also increase your energy and
motivation for the rest of the day.
