| 0:00.0 | Hello, my friends, I am thankful you are joining me today for the morning mindset. |
| 0:08.2 | If you're new to the morning mindset, this is my simple attempt to help my fellow brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ |

| 0:20.8 | Doesn't have to be in the morning if your day starts in the evening because you work a swing shift, the morning |
