hello kandids, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. can you believe this is the last full week of july? august is right around the corner. where has the time gone? knowing that we're zooming through the year has been a wake-up call, especially since i thought i'd have more done with my drinkware line by now. but at the same time, i have been making some progress. i filed my provisional patent in may, i've determined my brand name and am working on my logo. better to take a few steps forward than none at all.
in an effort to become even more productive, i want to try to wake up earlier. i've been a night owl all of my life, but based on this recent huffington post piece, the most successful people all wake up by 6:00am. ugh, that is so damn early! but i do think there's something to be said for getting up so early, especially in this tech-based, 24/7 world. being up that early means you can actually work uninterrupted as most people are still sleeping, getting dressed or commuting to work. just think about how much you can get done between 6:00am and 9:00am, before anyone even has the chance to reach out to you to start the work day? i'm going to try to implement early wake-up times from now through the end of august and will report back on if my productivity level increased. fingers crossed!
what about you? are any of you natural early birds? do you force yourself to get up early to be productive?
and if you have any tips on how you get up early, please share. i can use all of the help i can get! and on that note, check out this motivational video, shared with me by my friend linda. my favorite quote: "it's necessary to get the losers out of your life if you want to live your dream". preach.
