2 more days to go in September and for me the Miracle Morning has meant meditation. I've done 10 days of a motivation meditation 'pack' as they call it on the head space app and I am partway through a self esteem pack. It really is amazing how quickly the 10 minutes go by and how different I feel before and after.
We are all so busy multi tasking that getting a little head space each day is like a breath of fresh air. Yesterday I truly was not feeling good, thought I was getting sick and felt totally different after meditating. The ibuprofen and vitamins I took probably helped too!
Looking ahead what will my October challenge be? I am going to participate in 'Making Your Home a Haven' as I did last year but that's easy, or at least the first week is.
How easy is it? Pick out your favorite candle scent. Buy the biggest candle in that scent you can find. Light it each day in your kitchen and say a prayer for your family. I can handle that. There's more to it as the month goes along but none of it is tough to do.
Here's a post from last year about 'Making You Home a Haven'

Perfect VS. Good
10 days of Headspace with 6 days down and 4 to go.
The Miracle Morning efforts continue. As with any new endeavor it is a work in progress. Some days are better than others. The main thing is the effort and attempt to fit in things that I know are beneficial.
There are many versions of this quote which I think originally came from the book Good To Great written by Jim Collins. "Don't Let Perfect Be The Enemy Of Good." or "Don't Let Perfect Get In The Way Of Good." Or maybe it came from my guru Grethen Rubin.
I'm not going to get caught up in what I've done or not done. Instead the focus will be on daily improvement. One thing that has become clear over and over is that exercise should get done first thing or it may not ever get done. That will be my small goal for tomorrow. Get the exercise done and out of the way first thing.
