I’ve determined that I have a hard time being productive or even awake in the mornings because my brain isn’t active at that time. Case in point: this morning I was falling asleep at my desk. But then a friend had a problem, and I listened to it. And during that listening period, my brain woke up. The content was stimulating and it required concentration. This activated my noggin, and I’m currently being quite productive.
So I was thinking, I should have some regular pre-work morning activity to stimulate the brain and get me working. A routine, if you will. Reading the paper doesn’t do it. I don’t think crosswords will do it, either. Clearly, showering doesn’t do it. It must be something I find engaging right at that very moment. Somehow, nothing seems quite as engaging as another two hours of sleep when that alarm goes off. But you know how you pop right out of bed when you have a really important or exciting day ahead of you? A big trip or something? Your brain is engaged! Ready for action! I need something to excite me in the mornings. Thoughts?
