Tired of having another rough morning? Well, hey check this out. I'm going to show
you how to be motivated in the morning.
The mornings pretty tough, huh? You're trying to get motivated in the morning
and it's just not working. And but you know, it's okay if that happens once
a while. But day after day after day, you know, you're trying to conquer the
whole a.m. lifestyle. And maybe you're going to say I'm not a morning person
and you're going to like claim some kind of title that is just not working for you
that you're a morning person. I think you're making up a story. I
think you're... I think you're copping out on this. I think your challenge is you
don't know what to do to make the a.m. a motivating time of your life. When you
wake up in the morning, it's a brand new day. But I get it. I totally get it.
If yesterday was tough, well what makes it seem like tomorrow's not going to be
tough? Like why would you even want to face another day if today was tough? So, I
totally get it. But wait. When are you going to start making some changes. When are
you going to start doing something different so that you can turn your life
around? Here's my theory. My theory is how the day starts is how
the day is going to end. And every day, we get a new chance to have a better start
on the day. Now, let's pretend that you get up at 6 o'clock. No, you don't.
Because you have it strong you have a difficult time getting it for the
morning. Let's say you start at 8 o'clock in the morning. And you then go from 8
o'clock to 8 p.m. and then let's just say you go to bed at 11. So, 8 to 12. 8, 9,
10, 11... That's another 3 hours. So you are 15 hours of being awake. So, 15 hours.
You each day, each day, the game is... The game is wake up and see how long you can
go liking the fact you're still alive. Just... You know, being okay with the
fact you're still breathing, your heart's beating and you're alive.
And the thing I believe is this, is my theory is we actually... Every morning, we
get a chance to start brand new fresh liking the day that we're stepping into.
And seeing how long it can go before something comes in and ruins it.
Sometimes it can be ruined by 8:30. You know, 30 minutes later. Sometimes you're
waking up at 8 o'clock with something bad. May be a bad text or a bad phone
call. But maybe it's time you decided you're going to take charge. You know, if
you're having a tough time being motivated in the morning, motivations
now what you're looking for. Let me just get that out of your
head. Don't look for motivation. What you're looking for is control. When we
have some level of control of our life, we feel motivated. We feel like we can do
things and change things in our life. But when we lose control, we lose motivation.
So, you need some help with some levels of control. And so, let's set some things
up so that you can start to begin to have some choice. Because choice is the
beginning of control. Let's have some choice about what you're gonna start
doing. So, let's... Let's take a look instead of you know focusing on the a.m., let's
back up just a little bit and let's focus on the p.m. I believe a great a.m,
a great way to wake up is a little bit of thinking the night before before you
go to sleep. So, thinking about the p.m. You know, tonight before you go to sleep,
you now are gonna take a moment and you're gonna decide, number 1 on this
is you're going to decide, when I wake up, tomorrow's a great day.
You're going to choose. When I wake up, tomorrow's a great day. Yeah, today man,
whatever. But tomorrow when I wake up, it's a great day. And the moment I wake
up is giving you such a great day. And then number 2, you're deciding what is
going to be great. Number 2 is what's going to be great when
you wake up tomorrow morning. What's the reason the day's going to be great. Is it
because it's Friday, because it's Thursday. Because you get to go outside.
But you find some reason why tomorrow's going to be great.
Maybe you're gonna see someone or you get to do something tomorrow or and
maybe you have to like really search and find something. You know, something small
of a reason why it's gonna be great tomorrow. so you got you got choose to
this can be great. This is the reason it's going to be great.
And as you're laying there drifting off to sleep, there's just this mantra. You
know, tomorrow when I wake up, it's going to be great. Tomorrow's going to be awesome. I'm
going to love it. Tomorrow's going to be great. I mean, it's
just... And you're just repeating to yourself as you're drifting off to sleep.
And you are pre setting the setting you're going to wake up to. You see our
brain works on settings. Just like a stove if you need it 350 degrees. You set
it for 350 degrees. Then it gets to 350 degrees. And you get 350 degrees.
You set the stove for 350 then because it's a setting, the stove heats up to 350.
If you want 200, you set it for 200. The microwave. You want it to run for 2
minutes, you click 2 minutes. The brain works in exactly the same way. It is a
setting. But what happens is sometimes we have some rough things happen in our
life and we lose control of our settings. And we lose control in the fact that we
actually can get involved with our settings. And you are literally now pre
setting how you're going to wake up. You're not just waiting to see how it
turns out. Because if you keep waiting to see how your life turns out, you
are going to be really, really frustrated and discouraged. Because that means you
are literally setting in the drive-thru line waiting to see what they're going to
cook you. You know, if you're... If you're a person who's like, "I'm going to just wait to
see what how this turns out." Okay. Go in and drive-thru line, go up to the window.
And they're going to say, "What would you like?" And you say, "I'm just going to wait to
see how this turns out." And the person is going to say, "No, you need to place your
order." And then you would say, "No, actually. I live a lifestyle of waiting to see how
it's gonna turn out." And the person's going to say, "You need to
get out of line or you need to decide what you need to order." Notice: In life,
it's waiting for you to place the order. It's waiting for you to decide, it's
waiting for you to make the decision. And when you don't make the decision,
you actually frustrate life. Because it doesn't know what you want. Doesn't know
what you need. There's nowhere you want to go. And so, that frustration gets built
up inside of you and then that's why you don't want to wake up. That's why I don't
want to get going in the morning is because you actually have allowed the
frustration energy to fill into your life because of whatever reasons and
whatever things have happened to you. So, starting now, before you go to bed
tonight, you're going to preset how you're going to wake up. When I wake up, it's
going to be a great day. When I wake up, I'm going to be happy. When I wake up, I am going to
get ready. And it's going to be super cool tomorrow. But you're working on that the
night before. And you actually are tapping back into some control of your
settings. Because it sounds like your settings are probably all kind of
wherever. And that's why you're not embracing the next day is a great
opportunity for a redo. My life as I'm living it right now, I'm going through
this day today paying attention to what works and what doesn't work. And I'm so
glad tomorrow I get to have a redo. I get to test it all out tomorrow. Everything I
learned today I get to practice tomorrow. And so whatever mistakes I make today, I
can correct it for tomorrow. You know, whatever
I've done wrong, I can do better tomorrow. And so, I I'm so glad there's a re-do. So,
when I wake up tomorrow morning it's like, "Okay. Time for a re-do." Do this
again. This whole life thing again. But I'm going to work on my settings before I
go to sleep. And let's say you look at your calendar for the day tomorrow. You
know, tonight before you go to sleep, you're looking at the calendar of your
activities for tomorrow. And instead of sitting there going through your
calendar and going, "Well, I don't know how that's gonna turn out. Well, I'll see how
that one turns out." No you decide ahead of time. This meeting is going to be great.
This conversation is going to turn out well. This deal is going to close. That
money is going to be enough to pay my payments. This is going to happen. This is
going to happen. And you start deciding how things are going to work. Because when
you get some level of control of setting some some ideas in your head, you get
this little tiny boost of control on the inside. You might as well get involved
with how you're thinking. Because if you're not, how's it ever going to change?
What are you going to do? What are you going to do? So, to set up a better day tomorrow.
Think through your schedule, look through your schedule. Make decisions how things
are gonna turn out. Make decisions and then make decisions how you're going to
feel for the day. And as you're going to sleep, just review that as you're going
to sleep. That it's going to turn out good. This meetings going to be great. This
deal is going to close. This relationships going to get better. I'm going to
get smarter, stronger. More focused. You decide all these things. As you're
drifting off to sleep. Because how you are in your settings when you go to
sleep is pretty much how you're going to wake up the next day. You determine the
settings. You need to make decisions on what's going to improve. You need to get
involved with your life. And the way that you find motivation is by making
decisions on how things will turn out. So, you get to the next day and
everything you said didn't work. Let's say it all completely blew up and it
just messed up everything completely fell apart. So, when you go to sleep
tomorrow night, what are you going to do? You can give up and say, "Oh, it didn't work,
Kirk." Oh, come on. You need a little bit more practice than that. You're trying to
learn how to push the buttons and settings and you don't had control of
this for quite a while now. So, it's going to take you a little bit to get into the
practice of what you said is what's going to happen. Because remember, you're
the one who is not motivated in the morning. You've got some work to do here.
Now, how much time are you looking at here to create a change? If you're really
focused on this and you really will apply this tonight in putting and
dialing in your settings for tomorrow what its going to be like. How things are
going to turn out? What kind of emotions are going to have? How you're going to think? If you
really get into this, I give you 7 to 10 days and you will see some dramatic
changes happen. First off, people are going to notice your behavior. Yhat's
going to happen within 3 to 4 days. People are going to be like, "Whoa! What's up
with you? What'd you do? Lose 10 pounds or something?
What'd you do? Something good happen to you?" They're going to notice like what's up
with you. Because just that pre-planning, that presetting the night before about
how it's going to turn out tomorrow, it takes about 3 days to 4 days. And
he'll start to take effect on you. But give yourself 7 to 10 days and
you'll be super tickled. Because right now we're you're out of control and
you're not really involved with the settings. That's about... That can
really eat at you. It can really hurt. But you do what I'm suggesting to you, that's
going to make a change. It's going to feel good. And how cool is it going to be when you
wake up and you wake up and you set up on the edge of your bed and you've you
said looking around going, "Whoa! Today's different. Why is today different? Something
feels different? "That is a result of you getting involved with your settings.
Because unless you just put the settings on there, you never know how it's going to
turn out. Okay, you can do better. Tonight, you set the settings, you decide. Start
practicing this. Don't wait for a week. Start that tonight. Hey, and another thing
