The Miracle Morning Summary
Acknowledge the 95% reality check and become part of the 5%.
This reality check is a shock to most people. We assume that probably around 95% of people will think about it. The idea that 95% of all people settle for what is in front of them without wanting to pursue more means a lot.
You may desire to have a more balanced life or explore own potential to have a more very sobering thought. Also, it may amaze you that it takes time before you can make enough time to reflect on your life.
Ask yourself some of these questions. “Am I settling? Am I part of that 95%? What can I do about that?”
The most important thing that this will inspire you about is on what will be your final question. You can break away from becoming a slave to the life of mediocrity and comfort zones.
You may have been in such owing to failure to look out into the available solutions.
Elrod gives you plenty of advice all backed up by his own experiences. He fantastically does this to be able to help get grips on the much of a life-changer this Reality Check is.
The information is well handled throughout the book. Elrod makes a fantastic move in showing how such a seemingly small change of mindset can have such a hugely positive impact on all other aspects of your life.
The Reality Check invites you to question what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. It sets you up perfectly to further discover what it is that you want to be doing. It is so that you can make that your life check a reality.
The first step you need to embrace in getting into the exclusive 5% of people who know what they want is to feel the passion and desire to step outside of the comfort zone. You get away from this as you move towards a life of achieving their ambitions and making the most out of yourself.
Identify the causes of mediocrity and break away from them.
Have you ever thought about why you feel like you’re missing something? About whether you are missing anything at all, and what you can do to stop that feeling?
It might not be that you are missing something at all; it is that you don’t have the right balance in your life. It is possible that one of the most exciting aspects that Elrod touches on and encourages you to think on is the presence of mediocrity in your life.
To be able to address this problem we go back to the cause. Sometimes this becomes one of the most painful or uncomfortable aspects to look at life.
Whether it is because of past experiences or just developing an unbearable habit, you may have trained yourself to think about how your life should be. But this section of The Miracle Morning empowers you to look at your life and find out what it is that leaves you feel dissatisfied and how it stops you from taking the necessary steps.
It is essential to be proactive and productive so that you can feel like you can accomplish something. More importantly, it serves as a good reminder that you can achieve something, even owe it to yourself to pursue what it is that you want to be doing.
Identifying what it is, that is holding you back might not be an easy task. Just think of a hot air balloon being weighed down by too much baggage.
In such a scenario, if you knew which rope to cut so that you can fly off into the sunset without that extra weight, wouldn’t that be a great feeling Cutting our metaphorical cord might be an even bigger task to overcome, but it is a step in the right direction.
Draw Your Line In the Sand
Elrod focuses on helping you as the reader and the audience to change the way you handle issues. Though the primary focus is on improving your day by waking up well in the morning, the application of the principles discussed by him is diverse.
The policies are literarily interpreted to mean the actual waking up from the bed. In a broader perspective, the implication of miracle morning marks the beginning of rising in many other aspects in life.
The topic means a lot to every audience, and through the application, there would be significant changes in life. Elrod gives his life as an example of how applying the principles make immediate and progressive changes in a desirable direction.
Any change is challenging to adopt. But those we who take on changes have something that we do uniquely.
It is by selecting the difference immediately. It is where the application of early rising comes in as well. Elrod calls this the drawing of a line.
Unless you choose the proposals directly and start practicing, it is the idea that you will not use it. To be able to run with the vision of having a miracle morning, Elrod proposes that you should start the changes today without delay.
We presume that after you go through the information, you start applying it immediately and change that which you do not want to live with. Any delay in adopting the recommendation is like the delay in waking up from the bed.
You will stop thinking about it and end up forgetting about the need to change. You must be willing to apply the recommendations and start practicing them.
It is by drawing a line in the sand so that you can transit into the new life. You change everything that may hamper the crossing of string into a renewed living and must remove it immediately.
