Daily battle with evil

Waking up in the morning for me is an unique experience in that it seems I’m starting life again, yes like at birth. To welcome me are various monsters. They are always new ones as the ones from the earlier day I’d have slain.

The monster attacks my mind right away with a depressing feeling that numbs my will at first. Then it fills my head with words like “you can’t do it”, negative self talk. So there i stand in front of this foe on a daily basis. It tries to envelop me in its darkness.

I don’t try to fight it right away. Then my routine kicks in. I start my morning exercise routine. Immediately the monster goes full throttle. I still don’t do anything except follow my routine. Despite the lethargic feeling i don’t stop and follow my routine.

After 3 hours the monster is vanquished. I am ready and dressed to face the challenges of that day: either too much work or not enough of work.

At the end of the day i reign over the land of these monsters who sing my glory after my night routine. And thus the king of all worlds go to sleep.

Then the next day the same story repeats.
