Hello steemian welcome to my first dairy game session. I hope you all have a nice day ahead.
I wake up around 6:32am— (I live in Nigeria , where the sun rises at 7:00am).
I sit up in bed and grab my glasses and watch from the nightstand. I have a sip of water, say good morning to my aunt , Michelle, and then walk into the kitchen. I start coffee and feed the cats. One cat eats faster than the other, so I have to monitor them during breakfast. By the time they are done, the coffee is ready, so I pour myself a cup and go look out the window for a minute.
So far, about twenty minutes into my day, I haven’t looked at a phone, computer, or other screen. We charge our devices inside a cabinet in the dining room, so they are out of sight and mostly out of mind. The physical barrier forces a deliberate decision about when to take that first look, and I’ve configured my devices to make them as distraction-free as possible. Normally I’ll check my phone first, turning on the screen without unlocking it to see if I missed an important text or call overnight. Then I’ll grab my computer and sit down at the dining room table with my coffee.
I like to start my day with a meaningful chunk of work. It might be repairing of electronic or working on a presentation. It could be electrical house plan . I even have an electronic power pack to repair by 8:00am. This is my daily “Highlight” that I describe in Make Time.
I view the first few hours of the day as “free,” unclaimed time. If I don’t use it deliberately, I’ll squander it on email or Twitter or the news or some other mindless timesuck that doesn’t make me feel good. Plus, I’ve learned that my focus is better in the morning than it is later in the day; I want to make good use of that time.
After an hour or two, I eat breakfast, drink a second cup of coffee, jump in the shower, and get dressed—not always in that order. By 10:00am I’m ready to head to the office, continue working at home, or have a meeting—although I normally save meetings for the afternoon.
