I often blog about things because I need the reminder myself. My swimsuit post was one of those cases where I had a sudden realization that I needed to do better at something. Usually I have to re-remember several times before I actually turn a good intention into a habit.
So I’m going to start sharing my re-rememberings with you in little mini-posts called Daring Dos, things I dare you (and myself) to do or at least to keep in mind as you go about your day.
Today – I want to remind you that tomorrow starts tonight. If you want to have a great day tomorrow, go to bed at a decent time tonight. You’ll be happier, more patient, more able to handle your life. You can’t wake up early if you don’t go to bed early, not and maintain peak sanity throughout the day.
Tomorrow starts tonight. Go to bed early!

Amen! The past steps on the heels of the present, for sure. Great advice!

If only I had read this last night instead of the book that stayed glued to my hands until 1:15…..I totally agree with you. I think maybe I need to stencil it on my forehead.
Holly says
Amen to that!

This is very interesting indeed,but how many people realised that tomorrow should actually begin this very night?
Our race towards tomorrow is so speedy that we tend to forget this basic truth about the next day called tomorrow.
We as parents usually feel cagey any time we wake up and it dawns on us that our kids should be prepared for the day’s schooling activities,whereas if we had tried to prepare for this the night before the new day would be less problematic.
I really share your idea about planning for the next day well in advance today.

So true!! In addition to early to bed, I find a little prep work – like getting clothes out, lunch made, etc goes a long way to less stressful morning!
