The Best Way to Start the Day

Some mornings, no make that most mornings, I don’t feel like getting up early to go for my walk. I lie in bed thinking that this must be the best place to be. How do I coax myself out of the cozy comforter? First my mind tries to rationalize that I can go for walk anytime. Then reality creeps in… the list of to-do’s for the day scrolls through the mind and I realize if I want to go for a decent walk it’s now or never. So up I get. And then I realize: early morning is beautiful and as a man said to me the other day, “a walk is the best way to start the day.”
