5. Becoming an Early Riser
Thomas Jefferson woke up early every day. He said, "Whether I retire to bed early or late, I rise with the sun." There was a fifty-year period in Jefferson's life during which the sun never caught him in bed. Jefferson had an appetite for action. He said, "Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act. Action will delineate and define you." He also said, "Determine never to be idle. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing." Another one of Jefferson's great quotes: "I'm a great believer in luck; and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it."
Try getting up extra early for the next thirty days. When you wake up come up with several new ideas that inspire and motivate you. Jot down the first twenty ideas that come to mind. Circle the idea that is most important to you. To set that idea in motion, quickly brainstorm five specific actions you can take within twenty four hours and do them.
5.成為早起者
托馬斯·杰斐遜每天早起。他說，不管我睡覺早晚，我與太陽同升起。杰弗遜的生活中有一段50年的時期，其間太陽從未抓到他賴床。杰弗遜有行動的愿望。他說，你想知道你是誰？不要問。行動。行動將勾畫和定義你。他還說，決定絕不空閑。如果我們總是做事，有多少事能被做是奇妙的。杰弗遜的另一個偉大的格言之一：“我是幸運的大信徒，而我發現我更努力工作，我就擁有更多幸運。”
在接下來的30天里嘗試額外早起。當你醒來，冒出幾個新主意，鼓舞和激勵你。抄下心中浮現的前20個主意。圈上對你最重要的主意。要推動那個主意，快速頭腦風暴出五項你可以在24個小時采取的具體行動，做它們。
