The truth is that we are not certain of tomorrow so we must make the effort to make today count because time passes by without you even noticing.    Photo by: Jason Grant  Hold on to the time that you have now because time we spend

As a university student, I have learned this the hard way. Waking up from a four-hour sleep, immediately rushing to join a class and submit my assignment can be quite a task. Thankfully, my life coach and self-help books have thought me a few lessons on how to command my morning by putting things into place. He who fails to plan is planning to fail. -Sir Winston Churchill Photo by: Jason Grant   Commanding your morning can be simple, all you need to do is just a few things to get yourself together and be ready for a fresh day.

A lot of us can confirm this from experience because either it brought pain or some form of stress before it left.  I started out my journey of self-development a few years ago when I started watching motivational youtube videos from Les Brown, Lisa Nichols, and so many others.

Imagine that it is your first day at school and you are in the first-class session and the lecturer  asks you to stand to introduce yourself.

Well, this is no surprise I was once like that too, not only was I like that but in a new space, I tend to be much of an introvert.
