THE 5AM CLUB By Robin Sharma

Intro:

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! You reach over to your side with great effort and pick up the phone that lay buzzing by your side. You turn it on and its brightness blinds you for a few seconds. Eventually your eyes adjust to the screen, and you look at the time: 5AM. There is no way you are waking up that early. You moan and press the snooze button as you sink deeper into your bed. Your sheets automatically wrapping around your body, and you think to yourself: ‘Not even the sun is up, so why should you?’ And with that you fall asleep, being the mediocre person you think you have to be.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! You reach over to your side with ease and pick up the phone that lay buzzing by your side. You turn it on and its brightness blinds you for a few seconds. Eventually your eyes adjust to the screen, and you look at the time: 5AM. Perfect. You grin and press the stop button as you sit up in your bed. You lift your sheets above your body and jump out of your bed with newfound strength. You look at the mirror in you room and say: ‘I don’t wish for an easy life because there is no growth of my powers there. Give me a challenging life, one that brings out the finest in me. For this makes an iron will and an unconquerable character.’ These are two very different mornings, one that screams average, screams mediocrity; while the other screams exceptionalism. The choice is yours: with you settle for average or will you fight for glory?
