Is Waking up Early Really Worth it???

Well, isn't this exciting, this is my first topical Thursday, where I write about a topic, and you all battle out your opinions in the comments.

let's get started!

How many of you are morning people? I definitely am not, but I force myself to get out of bed every morning at 5AM, some of the time, I do not have the drive to drag myself up.

so... is it worth it?

NeuroTracker states that rising at the crack of dawn has several benefits, namely, a better mood, and better diet plans. It also jokes that the goal is to have lunch when the rest of the world eats breakfast.

does that mean dinner is at 2 PM?

I have noticed that when I jump out of bed at the sound of the alarm, there is a completely different feel to my day, there is this drive, to want to get things done, it is like a natural version of Adderall.

There are always two sides to each story though, so let's explore the cons.

When I wake up at 5AM, I am only getting 7 hours of sleep, which has impacted muy life in several ways. My skin is not as clear as it once was, and I get sick a bit easier. We have to ask ourselves how far is too far?

Are we putting our work above the health and wellbeing of our bodies?

It feels great to get things accomplished, but is it at our own expense?

I allowed terror to run my life, for years I would hide myself, blending in until I no longer knew who I was, letting every insecurity carve its bloody handprint into my brain until I believed every word. We often wish for what we don't have, assuming that if we were prettier, thinner, more wealthy, or in a relationship, that then we would feel satisfied. Fear entangles our brain in a web of lies, saying that we are not enough, and if we can just achieve something else then we will be happy. This belief is deceitful, dangerous, and addicting. I constantly battle with the false notion that because of my visual impairment, I have to make up for the difference, that I am less then others because I cannot see as they do. I tell myself that I am only wor...

Women of God

Women of God What makes a woman powerful? Many have asked this question, and there have been a spectrum of answers. One might say her beauty, or determination. Another might respond that it is her confidence. These are all great attributes, however, they are all fleeting if the woman does not have this one single characteristic. This quality is not obtained through her looks, or the people she comes into contact with. It is something few women have, but something that everyone can feel, it shines like a light in the darkness. It can lift up these qualities, and make them eternal. This power is her identity, the sureness of herself, not through her achievements, but through a person who knows of her true value, a person that suffered every pain just for this single woman. This person is Christ. Christ gives us true confidence, love and virtue, because he sees us as we truly are. He removes all the doubts in our minds, the ...
