Less than a year ago I was a night person. I hated mornings. I still hate waking up, especially on cold, dark mornings like today's, but I love being awake early and starting my day slowly instead of scrambling to get ready so I'm not late for work.
Dawn Patrol changed me. Waking up at 4 or 5 in the morning to go hiking sounds dumb but it feels great. Have you ever felt the pride of conquering a mountain before sunrise? Do you ever get a few hours of exercise in the great outdoors before going into work? You can't understand why I love it so much until you've tried it out.
Now I regularly wake up early and have plenty of time to enjoy my morning before work. I eat breakfast at home every day; I'm awake and energized when I get into work and am productive immediately. That alone has made me a happier person.
That's why today's reminder is to eat breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day. My other suggestion is to take vitamins. I take a multivitamin and a fish oil capsule with my breakfast. I can't prove they help but I hope they do.
P.S. Thanks Mark for getting to wake up stupid early

I split a lung from laughing too hard. Just kidding, I didn't laugh. Just kidding, I laughed a little and then I peed my pants. Just kidding, just kidding.
