Time To Explore

How many of us get caught in the same rut day in and day out? Not just the big things, the little ones too. How many of us wake up, hurriedly get dressed, and run out the door with little more than a cup of coffee and maybe a banana?

I used to do that. I would get to work in start having Low blood sugar symptoms by 10:30 or 11:00. By the time I got to eat around 12:00 or 12:30, I had difficulty thinking straight and was angry at everything. It’s not the way to work, and it’s not the way to live.

I have recently worked at eating better and started making avocado toast once or twice a week in the morning. It’s easy to do; an avocado is less than a dollar.  I mash it up, mix in a tsp of salad dressing and some bacon bits, smooth it onto some toast, and I have an excellent start to the morning with a great breakfast.

What could you do before work that would make your day?
