Start your day brilliantly Source: https://chopra.com Stay Unplugged from Tech If the first thing you do when you wake up is check your smartphone for messages or work email, you are doing yourself a disservice. You are immediately cultivating a reactive mindset, instead of a proactive one, which will cause you to start your day in a defensive state, rather than a place of inner peace and control. Instead, try remaining detached from technology for the first hour of your day so you can begin your day with present-moment awareness and a positive focus.

It’s really bad and also interesting that probably 90% of the people don’t have a healthy breakfast, don’t care about Practice Optimism and Gratitude, don’t exercise and…..
But I think that 10% of the people that do this things are or going to be successful in life.
I actually think that exercise and Practice Optimism and Gratitude are 2 of the most important ones.
You’re absolutely right about practicing gratitude and optimism. However, recently there’s been some controversy on whether having a hearty breakfast early in the morning is absolutely essential or not. We can discuss that in our upcoming online class.
I believe the first minutes that we wake up are very crucial and effective on how our day is going to be. For example, I have noticed that on the days that I immediately check my phone after waking up, my mood drops, instead when I go and brush my teeth, open the curtains, and have a healthy breakfast I have a higher energy for my day.
I could not agree more. The way we start our day mindfully has a great effect on the quality of the entire day and how we end it. In fact, we should avoid waking up on the wrong side of the bed.
Starting a day with a good mood and energy with a sharp and clear mind is a gift that not everyone has and I wish I had.
It might be a gift, yet I guess we should not wait for others to grant us this precious gift. Sometimes, we must give gifts to ourselves.
Prioritizing tasks can help us to understand where we go today, and what exactly we are aiming for. Moreover, it allows our brain to concentrate when it is necessary.
Precisely! It can grant us a sense of clear direction, and help us not to be susceptible to distractors around us.
Restful sleep has a great impact on all day. If you didn’t have more than 6 hours of sleep, the probability that you will feel clumsy or illogical is quite high. In addition, it also influences our mental and physical health.
So, I have a question; in what situation will it be extremely dangerous not to have enough sleep ?
That’s right. To achieve optimal consciousness, we need to have sufficient sleep. Sleep deprivation could turn out to be quite dangerous especially in delicate tasks like driving, working with heavy machineries, making an important decision, and so forth.
I think priorities are different from a person to another person. Some of activities maybe be important for a person that they are not as important as activities of another person. For example, exercises maybe be important for some bodies and not important for others.
DO I use correct grammar in this text? maybe be… is correct here or maybe are/is
Corrections:
* from person to person
* some activities might be important
* Have I used correct grammar

Good point! We will discuss it in the class.
I have a question related to “Have a “To-Do” List Ready to Conquer”, basically what are kind of examples of To do list for dailly basis.
I mean like should I put playing, breakfast, and things like that into the To do list.
Or the meaning of To do list is just for important stuff like some tasks that we shoud be completed it every day, for example study math lesson, go to gym, and etc.
As I see we must rank the order of priority from less important to the most important things, thank you.
It all depends on your personality and workload. I myself like to include some ordinary tasks in my to-do list simply because crossing them off energizes me.
You can write down everything you should do on a piece of paper, then prioritize them in terms of significance. Also i recommend considering some extra time for unexpected events.
I’m personally believe that practice optimism and gratitude everyday will create a good aura for us and that’s called vicious circle if we do it routinely, which is better for us as daily basis.
A vicious circle is something which is in a negative and unpleasant loop. So, it cannot be a vicious circle because it has a positive essence.
You should also write: I personally believe that practicing optimism …
* everyday –> every day because it’s an adverb
Thank you for the correction sir, I thought vicious circle is like a daily basis loop wether is positive or negative that will affect us.
I should be working on my textual interpretation especially for my vocabulary, since nowadays are mostly quarantine for any countries, I have lots of time to study IELTS through your LELB society.
Yeah, these days, when we should stay home as much as we can, are a great chance for us to study and use online resources to the best of our abilities.
1. What about night owls? Can you say they should start their nights brilliantly to them?
Maybe.I think they have differences. but I can say optimism and gratitude thought is benefitly for daily works. we should have a positive attitude and have hope for life.
Agreed. Cultivating an optimistic outlook in life is incredibly important for success and wellbeing. Chances are relatively slim that sleep-deprived people could stay optimistic and vibrant in the face of problems.
well in order to get a fresh start you should be able to have a comfortable asleep on your last night so i really don’t believe that night owls would start their days on the right food when they don’t get enough sleep and relaxation when they want to start their day .
Corrections:
* asleep –> sleep
* i –> I
You should pay attention to this point that night owls’ sun rises in the evening when early birds’ sun sets.
