#ULOG 14 // Earlier Than Usual

I woke up earlier than usual today! I woke up at past 6 AM. Usually, I wake up at around 7:30 AM.

5:30 AM

_{Set my alarm clock.}

I was inspired by a video I saw on YouTube that says that it is good for a person to wake up at 5:30 AM.

So I set my clock to alarm at 5:30.

But I wasn't aware that having my phone on silent mode would keep it from alarming. I always set my phone on silent mode to keep notifications from disrupting my music when I stream on Spotify.

But still I was able to wake up at past 6. That's not bad at all!

In time though, I want to make my body naturally wake up at 5:30 AM without the aid of an alarm clock.

Routine check and gratitude practice

Today, I was able to start doing my routine check and gratitude practice!

Last night, I listed the things that I was grateful for on that day.

Then this morning, after doing all the tasks that are part of my daily routine, I checked off the tasks that I was able to do in the right order.

I will now share the two as part of my daily Ulog!

Productive mixing session

_{Trying other mastering options for "Fall in Love This Christmas" on Ozone 8.}

This afternoon, I did additional mixing to two of our old songs. It was good that I woke up early because I was able to do more mixing this time.

I think I'm getting closer to the mix that I want to achieve. I'm excited about the finished products!

Tomorrow, I will start mixing the remaining song off the EP that I'm editing now. Hopefully, I can finish everything by next week!

1. Day reflection √

This is #GratitudePractice

Here I will list down at least five things that I'm grateful for for the day.

It doesn't have to be a big thing. Simple, small things will do. I guess the simpler the thing, the better because it means that I'm counting my blessings well.

I'm doing this for myself because I believe that this activity is therapeutical and beneficial. But I would like to also do this for others so I can hopefully inspire people to do the same thing.

Who knows where this will go?
