Leaving my bed undone in the morning after waking up was my pièces de résistance; it was proof that I was an adult – or so I thought.
Doing any type of activity in the morning is a chore. Just getting out of bed is a battle in itself and I tend to allow my mind to slowly warm up to the idea and it has to get going. But how can I force myself to “do stuff” so early the morning? That’s where some mind trickery comes into play.
The one thing which cemented by passage into independence will now help bride the gap between apathy and productivity. How so you may ask? I’m a creature of habit and it takes some work in order to break the patterns previously established. Over the years I’ve come to realize that small changes yield the best results when trying to change course; once the first step is taken we keep building on that progress. But, you’re just making the bed, you may say. Well my friends, small steps. Steps that will hopefully help me change my perspective and break the habit. Plus, making the bed will please the wife.
