Challenge number 2 in my year long healthy habit challenge is to wake up at 5.30am every morning, including weekends! I decided to add this to the mix because I hear so often that it is good for me and below are the reasons I thought mattered to me most. Benefits to waking up early Time to plan for the day - if I don't plan I just don't end up getting things done.  Self development - successful people wake up earlier. Early bird gets the worm. Exercise - its hard to go to the gym after a long day of work. Waking up early gives me time to do this. Morning routine - I like to take my time getting ready in the morning, have breakfast, clean my house etc Quiet time - waking up before the sun rises give you a psychological advantage over everyone else. How did it go? Youtube-benefits to waking up early The first 10 days went well, I managed to wake up early without a struggle. It did allow me to get myself ready nice and slow before work, my house is clean

So if you read my previous blog you will see that I am doing a year long challenge of trying to develop healthy habits. Every 21 days I will be picking a new habit and doing my best to stick with it in order to become a healthier person. I started this journey on 1st September and the first habit I attempted was drinking a minimum of three litres of water everyday. At the same time I started a YouTube channel as i hoped I could document the journey a bit better. I am so incredibly rusty on video though and don't think I really get across the true nature of what I am trying to achieve and hope the blog will help do just that. YouTube- drinking 3 litres I chose this habit as I know there are numerous benefits to drinking lots of water and find that it isn't a hard habit to get into but once you've got it it is easy to maintain. Although I'm not the worst at maintaining my hydration levels, I did find it took conscious effort to drink so much every single day
