It’s 5:56 a.m.

It’s 5:56. Your alarm has gone off three times, so you have to get up. Eventually. You have a tough day ahead and the next hour will be insane as you try to get you and your family ready. The weight of the sheets hold you down. Five more minutes of sleep.

This is the most important moment of your day. You have a choice. You can firmly plant your feet on the ground and charge into your day. Or you can dread it. Focus on the positive to take on the bad — or just let the bad overwhelm you.

I know — it’s a lot to think about at 5:56. So don’t think. Act. Let your feet (and your heart) show your brain who is boss.

OK. It’s 5:58 now. Get going. Make the most of today.

I’m pulling for you. My feet are on the ground now, too.
