How do you start your day right? There are times that we wake up feeling so low but we have so much to do, we have no choice but to get up and get on with the workload. Then, what do you do to start your day right?

I start my day not always with a cup of coffee. It's not always the same everyday. Sometimes I just eat my breakfast immediately when I wake up, sometimes I go out directly after of course washing my face, toothbrush, etc. But what is done everyday right after I wake up is making the sign of the cross, its my way of asking God to bless me the rest of the day.

I agree, that is the best way to start each day. God frist before anything else. Thank you, Long and Happy New Year!

Well at the start of the day before I stand out from the bed I usually great God and thank God for giving me another day in life. After that I tell to myself that this day will be a beautiful day, another exciting day. I always start the day with a positive attitude. This practically helps a lot no matter what activity or work I am bound to do.

Hi, jpso138, so nice of you to still respond to a 5month old discussion. Yes, making God the center of our lives is the best attitude to start each brand new day. Thanks for the post and Happy New Year!

They say as soon as you wake up if you have positive thoughts or negative thoughts these will affect the kind of day you will have! If you stop of in a grumpy mood it will carry on all day, so I try to wake up with positive thoughts, then the first thing I do is go down and get myself a nice mug of hot black coffee and muesli to start the day then I sit on the computer and start reading my emails, hoping there is good news!

That is true positivity makes us have a good outlook in everything we do through the day. A nice mug of hot coffee helps a lot for me too. Not to mention what ever good news i get from my emails.Thank you for the post, really appreciate it.

Sometimes, it gets very mundane and the monotony makes me a procrastinator. I do not feel like waking, up, getting ready for job, and get going. But then, when I start to think that I have so many things to do before I die, time is precious and how cannot I just waste it like that - I get enough charge for the day.

Well simple, I can start the day right by starting my day with God. As I open my eyes, I go straight to my prayer garden and spend some precious moment of sweet communion with God. I take that opportunity to thank him for the night that has past and for the new day He gave me. I talk to Him and tell him my praisesThan I ask guidance and strength from Him. That way, I am assured that my whole day will be a pleasant and blissful one.

Good for you. I also thank God everytime i open my eyes in the morning but i do not have a prayer garden in which i can be in communion with Him. But, that is one great way of starting the day right! Have a nice day my friend!

I will try to look into the mirror and smile. Somehow, I think smile helps to brighten up the day. If possible, smile to anyone you meet that very morning, things will change to be better. Of course, a cup of coffee in the morning or a nice breakfast can boost oneself too! Cheers :)
