Set the alarm – we’ve got six reasons why getting up earlier may make you more successful!

 

1. There are less distractions in the morning:

A typical day can get crazy, fast. When everyone else is sleping, it’s easier to focus.

 

2. Exercise gets your blood pumping:

Finding time for exercise can make you more productive, yet it’s easy to squeeze out of your schedule. Knock it out first thing in the morning and start the day ready to take on the world.

 

3. Successful people are already doing it:

Successful people have limited time in their day to accomplish tasks and take personal time, which is why they get an early start.

 

4. You’ll be more productive:

A 2008 study discovered that morning people are more proactive. A proactive attitude leads to increased productivity, since you’re not waiting for someone to prod you along.

 

5. You will have time for breakfast:

A survey from the Harvard School of Public Health found skipping out on breakfast may increase coronary heart disease risk – making a good breakfast more important than you might think.

 

6. You’ll be happier:

Research has shown morning people tend to be happier and healthier. Considering the well-documented link between happiness and work performance, it’s easy to see why happier early birds often find themselves flying higher than their late-rising counterparts.

Student at Broward College for the past five years, first enrolled on Davie's Central Campus learning Physical Therapy for two years than, transferring to Coconut Creeks North campus for the last three years, now majoring in Early Childhood / Developmental Education. Spent first year with Her campus Broward as Outreach Director, former president of self-entitled campus friendship club, Sammy's Buddy Brigade, member of the Campus Science Club, and a Broward County local student Ambassador with Best Buddies International. Winner of the Sammy's award for most charity work within the community, and now Vice President of Her Campus Broward. I hope to soon be working at Junior Achievement with the elementary and middle school children, in order to have a well rounded experience! The hope is to one day work with and teach children who have special needs such as myself! Biggest belief and philosophy of life is that, no matter what anyone says you can't accomplish in life, I am living proof that anything is possible! Having ADHD, high functioning Autism, and medical conditions such as Scoliosis, helps me to understand special needs children on a level that very few people can! It is this very knowledge that led me to choose Teaching as my chosen profession. Now at age 42, and more than 55% on the way to getting an Associate of Arts degree in Early Childhood Education, I hope to become an Assistant Teacher within the next year or so. We hope that this true life story will inspire others to never give up either, no matter what anybody says, or tells you, that you can't do, the only one who can truly hold you back is "YOU".
