Sometimes waking up super early does make sense as you can ease yourself into a new week rather than being thrown into it. You should try it.

“One burner represents your family, one is your friends, the third is your health, and the fourth is your work.”
The gist is that in order to be successful you have to cut off one of your burners. And in order to be really successful you have to cut off two.

Very often we are told conflicting messages about ‘having it all’ and whether we can or can’t have it. Personally I do think that things need to be sacrificed to get to where you want to be.
In my time to be successful means you have to constantly balance and adjust the intensity of individual burners according to your own situation.
