Thanks so much for listening and I hope you have a fantastic day. of Wake Me Up. The Podcast, Where Morning People Are Made. I'm Tyler, I'm your host, and I'm so

thankful to have you here with me this morning. Sometimes it seems that the more we do and accomplish,

the more we want and expect from life.

And this isn't necessarily a bad thing.

It's good to try new things, to challenge yourself and to grow.

But in the drive to succeed, we often get lost focusing on the shiny objects,

the awards, the recognition, and the toys we get to buy when we make a little bit more money.

Today we'll focus in on what really matters as we strive to do great things in life.

But first, I want to thank my mom for giving me the idea for this episode.

So, thanks, Mom.

Now, let's go ahead and get today started.

Just like every morning here on Wake Me Up, you can listen to my voice, and slowly over the next few minutes, we'll get out of bed and get the day started off positively.

Go ahead and open your eyes if you haven't already.

Use the light. ready.

Use the light to help wake you up.

And take a deep breath in. Hold it for just a second, and then exhale.
