Ever wake up to music? Ever have the first song of the day stick in your head and you can’t get it out? You’re OK if it’s a happy, upbeat song. But what if it’s one of those depressing heart stoppers? Like baby ducks, our earliest images tend to stick. I say, for 10 minutes every morning, it’s a smart idea to go read. Fill you head with something beneficial. Grab something to read that is inspirational, motivational or “how to.” For me, I love to read biographies — how did other people fight the lions, tigers and bears? I’ll grab a computer magazine. I’m not particularly computer literate so I’ll read an article to learn something new and maybe risk trying it out during the day. Or I’ll grab a seed catalog. I love to garden, and it’s spring in my house any morning I choose. Seed catalogs are packed with optimism and the empowering message, “You can grow this, too!”

What I’m saying is it’s smart to put wholesome brain groceries in your head for a fresh start. Start your day strong. Ignore the TV, radio and newspaper until later — all you’ll miss is a diet that might be setting you up for feeling down. And avoid getting dependent on outside media to jumpstart your feelings anyhow. Instead, take charge and go read for 10 minutes every morning. It’s a smart start to a terrific day every day.
