Discover the miracle of getting up early and. How much can you achieve by getting up early and work on yourself. Getting up early when everybody still sleep is a real miracle.

I was fascinated by this book. This was one my first book I read in a long time and it was a time when I started to discover the potential of self development.

From a daily vlog of Mirek Burnejko.

Everyone who want to find time for self development and discover what benefit waking early bring.

I started to get up early and it was great in the beginning. For about a year I got up early and did my morning routine. The main reason why I changed the waking hour was that I struggled with getting to bed early enough to maintain about 8 hours sleep. I had also some health issues. Nevertheless I moved getting up from 5:00 to 6:20, and since about 2 years it works for me. I developed most of my habits based on this book: ABOUT/HABITS/Habits
