I found out the tricks to make a clean "blogger look."I promise you, you have all that you need in this day in age, you just need to know how to work it. Here are 5 tips:

Do not, in all case, hit the snooze button. It won't help you.It won't help your success. It won't help your attitude throughout the whole day. It won't help your bank account. If the first thing you do to start your day is pressing that snooze button, you set your day toward a spirit of procrastination. You don't want that. You are better than this.You are greater than this.
Every morning I wake up at 6:00 to run and work out. I only have one alarm set up and that's 6:00am, with the message "Today is your day!" One technique that I started using to force myself to not touch that snooze button is place my phone across the room. When it rings, I have to get up to turn in off. By that time I am not as sleepy. This has helped me so much! Now I don't need an alarm to get me up. Sometimes I wake up to wait for my alarm to ring. There is this amazing feeling after waking up immediately at the sound of the alarm, it's called feeling of productivity. That, my friend, is what you want. You want the spirit of I CAN. Not I can't. I am scared of swinging on a swing. This is odd. I know. They are the best part of childhood, even adulthood. We get that happy feeling whenever we see empty swings. It brings out the feeling of the free-spirited child in us. I do get that happy feeling when I see a swing. The feeling becomes terrifying when I start swinging high. Scary. Today I took a risk to get over the scary. After my morning workout in the park, I walked to the swing, sat down, and played In You I Live by Housefires, one of my favorite Christian bands. I started swinging slowly, looking down at the floor. The scary started to overpower my thinking. As I was about to put my feet down to stop the motion, I looked up. There was this beautiful view of the sun hidden behind a tall green tree. I kept starring at that and suddenly the scary was diminishing. The more I focused on that tree, the more the scary was disappearing. The scary turned into a feeling of excitement and giggles. I started laughing while swinging as if no one was watching. I started enjoying that feeling. It all stopped when I looked down at the floor again. The giggles and excitement turned into the scary. Then I remembered to look up again and focus on one thing - the tree. Looking down when I swing gave me goosebumps due to my fear of height. Then I remembered when I was younger, I fell really badly from a swing.It was traumatizing. Since then whenever I get on a swing, I chicken out. It has now occurred to me why I am scared in the first place. I also became aware that the floor is what I walk on, it's not even that far looking down.If my feet can touch it, why am I scared of falling?
