What inspired me to be an EARLY RISER

-
Ironically while the post is on being productive, this write up idea was planted in my grey cells at the time of binge-watching House of Cards where in the heart and soul of the show, Kevin Spacey, his partner in the Netflix entertainer wakes up looking for him to be decked up, armed with ammunition to fight and earn the victory in day to day political battles.

Few hours later I bumped into a video titled "Wake up at 5am - Insane", that kinda made me rethink and research more on being an early riser.

Why this video got my attention?

Kobe Bryant 

 Forget my ignorance, I had no idea who Kobe Bryant was till I bumped into this video :). Here's what made me look up on him:

  • If you want to be best at what you want to be, you have to practice and train as much as you can.
  • Earlier you wake up, more time you get to practice / train and rest.
  • More practice you put in, will be the differentiating factor b/w you and the competitor over the years which is why you should wake up early and practice more.


The famous author of Ferrari who was sold by the monk appeared on my radar.

The urge to know your future - Good or Bad???????

Why do people want to look into future? I may have missed out on various possible reasons one might have. Mentioned here are the ones I could think of at this point of time. Possible reasons: 1)It's a good time pass 2)Insecurity & restlessness about certain phases & events in life 3)Insistence from dear ones – Parents, friends, siblings 4)Counseling / Decision making I was introduced to this science of mysticism at a very tender age, which got me quite fascinated towards it. Over the years I have met a lot of specialists who have been good & not so good in predicting the events of one's life. Few who have been humble & few who have been arrogant to the core. Eventually after certain experience & listening to different beats of music in life, I realize human beings always want to explore the road map to better living & fulfilling their desires. This actually can be a very subjective debate if looking into future can be against god's will...

The Awakening

In the evening,I decide to be up before dawn next day. While hitting the sack I realize some assistance is required to give me a wake up call. There comes a reality check, we do not have an alarm functioning :)Nevertheless I tell myself "you are going to wakeup@5" (Man hopes it is 5am & not 5pm :D) You wake up & feel, it's quite possible that you did it :) which had to be confirmed by the time device & voila I din't wake up@5..........acty it was 10 minutes earlier than the desired time. After long time, I've felt really awake. There was no air of sluggishness or even a slight thought of let's sleep again kinda feeling. This is absolutely amazing for somebody who struggles to wake up 2 hrs later on day to day basis. Well it was a wonderful experience out with the existence. Had a great date with the mother nature, enjoying the silence, the greenery, the birds, the breeze & of course the sol (Sun). This just confirms, find the purpose ...
