The first hour of the day shapes the remaining 23. The Brother who begins with intention — meditation, movement, reading, planning — has already won the morning before others have woken.
Avoid the phone for the first 60 minutes. The first thing thy brain absorbs becomes the lens for the rest of the day. Choose that lens deliberately.
Cold exposure, sunlight in the eyes, hydration, then high-protein food. This sequence tunes thy nervous system to a state of capable calm. Repeat for 365 days and thou wilt not recognize thyself.
The Seal of the Chamber
Win the morning, win the decade.
