Now, I am not one of those people who could be described as an Athlete – but one thing I have always enjoyed is a brisk morning walk. The point here, is to incorporate something that allows you to focus and start your day with energy! =>Make Exercise Part Of Morning Ritual! I honor the fact that some of us are religious, some of us are semi-religious and some of us are not religious at all.
