As I was enjoying a slow trip through LovThePic I say this little saying that I used for my image. It caught my eye because it is so close to my little rules for my days.
I don't have many but I do have some. I do wake up early in the day, it is my most creative time of the day. It is also the quietest time of day around here.
Even though I am retired I still believe in working hard. For me it is working on my writing and designing of jewelry and cross stitch. You don't get anywhere if you don't work hard.
I believe you need some type of exercise if you are to help keep your body going. I am on bed rest a majority of my time but there is nothing that says I cannot exercise my legs doing leg lifts or waist by doing a little twist from side to side.
Now, the last one I hold close to me heart. For me, a day is not complete unless I get to read some. I dearly love to read. It is my window to another world and way of living. It helps keep the mind busy.
The only thing about this list that I would change would be to add another little rule. That rule would be to make another smile sometime during each day.
Do you have little rules for yourself? If you do what are they?

Those are nice rules but only the one you added would be on my list

Ditto to all of the above. Waking up early is a life style. We were taught from small to rise before the sun (you can always go back to sleep later). I have excellent work ethics but like @Jeff Moffitt I can't work harder. I am at maximum and I am already burning. I hardly exercise anymore (only on days i feel better). Helping others or making them feel better is high on my list. And reading is second nature for me.

I think I wake early considering I go to bed at midnight, sleep 8 hours and I am up. I live by those rules, I do work hard daily. I do read daily, I always have a novel to read. or a DIY book I bought.
