To start off a day
beautifully, you really need to be super lucky. With this I don't mean that you
can't control it but lot of things have to go right before you can really start
an absolutely beautiful day. Let's see what happened in my case. I did some 10
minute shoulder exercise yesterday evening around 8:00pm and had aloo
paratha(yummy- my favorite) and slept around 11:30 or 12 I think and with some
miracle I woke up fresh at 5:45AM in the morning.
And there we go, I
decided that I will do everything which I otherwise don't find time for(bad
time management I guess but whatever). So, I jumped on this opportunity.
First, I admired the
world standing in my balcony , the morning sunshine falling on the trees making
it look like nothing less than a heaven, the birds singing songs(oh, I really
did hear them, next time I will try recording them :)), cool breeze feeling in
my face and Iam smiling because finally
I was so freshly awake at this hour(you can understand if you know how
difficult it gets to wake up fresh in early morning )..Moving forward, I made
myself a cup of Jaggery Tea with ginger and clove(which I wanted to make for
some time now, but I would always put sugar before and then remember it lol)
and had it in my balcony :) wow, it was so refreshing not to be rushing while
having tea and that too such a nice tea
with such a great view and feel!
Then I did some
exercises ,not rushing them, then I did a 5 minutes morning meditation which to
my surprise was done while standing, so it did not make me sleepy again , thank
god :)
And finally, I
recorded the much awaited video which I wanted to do for ages. It was about all
the quick routine exercises that will help you start off a better day and I
made that for my family members because I know they prioritize exercising as
the last in their to do list, sometimes their list doesn't even have it….hahaha
but its true!
Well, and now Iam
writing , wow it feels awesome to be writing once again and Iam going to
publish it hehehe…
So, this was so far
what I have been doing this morning but there is something which I did not tell
you..
While I was doing
all my favorite things, monsters of chores were trying to constantly grab hold
of me. I was pulled into making my bed(couldn't resist it,, sorry to myself), I
was being pulled into doing dishes, I said no to them strictly. I was pulled into
arranging already washed utensils in my utensils almirah- well, I did that
partially while preparing tea(sorry I cheated) And I was being pulled into
cleaning and mopping also when I scolded
the floor to shut its mouth and let me live for a while.
And Iam so proud I
did that…because I utilized best of my energies for the things which really
makes me happy and when I will be less on my energy levels, I think I will
still be able to pull those always shouting attention seekers chores.
And I realized that
it gets so easy getting distracted with the chores and they eat up you energy
right in the morning and never let you do your favorite things because by the
time they get finished, it does give a sense of satisfaction but you no longer
have the right set of energies to be doing your favorite things.. I know they
are important but I guess try getting some balance- will not happen every day
but somedays it will happen and you will smile to yourself :)
I was also not doing
video thinking that I just did exercise and I did not want to overdo it but I
told myself them hey, why are you finding stupid reasons, you won't be doing
full exercise ..right! And then I jumped it at too.I guess sometimes you need a
push, a convincing and I think you can be your own friend at all times…
So, this was new me
today, I hope I can share some more newer me soon!
