TASK 3
Before you go to bed at night, you tell your self that you're going to get up when you're alarm goes off, and that you're not going to hit the snooze. In the morning when you wake up, you're really tired, and you hit the snooze!! There are ways to avoid this problem. If you set you're alarm, say an hour before you're actually supposed to get up, and then when you wake up, set your alarm for 20 minutes later, etc. By doing this, you will be ready to get up by the time you finally have to, because you're not dead asleep. Although it's good to be able to say goodbye to the snooze button, if that's what you like, then I can tell you someways to be able to hit the snooze, and still be ready to walk out the door on time, or before! Say you picked out your clothes the night before, and you made your lunch while you were making dinner. That would probably cut off about 20 to 30 minutes in the morning! Another good way to cut off your time getting ready in the morning, is to already know exactly where you are going, making sure that the directions that you have are correct.

If you find yourself overwhelmed with obligations, have no fear! You need to make some time for you to relax and to be able to wind down at the end of a long and stress full day. Maybe take a long hot shower, or get in a bubble bath. Some people enjoy exercising, or watching T.V. Anything that will work for you will do! You just have to make sure that you make some time for YOU in your busy schedule, because if you don't, you may loose focus or determination from exhaustion.
