I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

Yesterday - A Morning Ritual

I’ve been wondering if I should start having a morning ritual. I don’t get up at the same time each day. Monday’s I try to get up at 5:30 a.m. to start the week and beat the traffic (this morning I got up at 7:20 a.m.). Tuesday’s I get up whenever because it’s my work from home day. Wednesday and Thursday back to 5:30 a.m. Friday whenever because traffic should be lighter. Saturday and Sunday are whenever. I don’t think I need to get up at a certain time every morning, but maybe I should have some ritual.

In this case it’s saying I should have a daily morning ritual. Maybe that’s meditation. Maybe that’s blogging. Maybe it’s the questions about what I’m doing for the day. It’s something I’d like to start, I’m just not sure what fits my schedule or maybe I should change my schedule.

Today - A Day In Review

I find it coincidental that the day in review stoic would follow the morning ritual. I’m positive it’s intentional. The stoic does say this can be done in either the evening or morning. This is possibly what I should be doing as a morning ritual. I wonder if dreams would be something to recall and jot down. I feel like dreams can be rather enlightening. When I have them.

Maybe the daily stoic becomes my ritual.
