“I hated every minute of training, but I said, don’t quit, suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.” —Muhammad Ali  - this is something that has hit hard for me in my life. I haven't met anyone yet that has an intense desire to wake up at 4:30 in the morning. But I can tell you when you do and when your feet hit the floor you feel powerful beyond measure because you know that your competition is sleeping in comfortable in their beds with their heads on their pillows comfy and warm while you are crushing life getting that extra 2 hours per day, 14 hours per week 60 hours per month and an extra 30 days per year, YOU my friend get an extra MONTH of life that your competition DOES NOT GET.... How insanely cool is that. Now what you do with those hours is what counts, let's talk through HOW we already know the why. What I do is make sure I go to bed at minimum by 10pm to get 6hours sleep, some need 8, so go to bed at 8pm to get your 8hrs, I need 6, 7 is optimal. Yes weekends count, yes had a late night get up anyways, that is how you achieve your Best Version of you. So I set 3 alarms, I also created different cool sounds that basically call me out if the 2nd and 3rd ones are going off. You have to be committed to the process. Are YOU committed to the process...

With what's going on in the world today there are a thousand reasons why giving up or quitting and giving in sounds like a good idea. The issue with doing so is you have now trained your brain that it is ok to quit. So the next problem that comes up makes it ever easier.
