That first cup of coffee in the morning is one of the most favorite rituals I enjoy. I use to battle depression and discovered a lot of it was stemmed from negative thinking, first thing in the morning. I've trained my brain to stop that pattern, and after time it has gotten easier. Even automatic, to think more positively.

[@jackiegaines3780]

I thank God Every morning for a fresh start and for all the blessings in my life at 71. I’m grateful for my health my family and friends and try to start everyday with a positive attitude

[@annwolters6799]

The first thing I think about in the morning is my morning prayer. I want to pray before my feet hit the floor each morning. AND I thank the Good LORD for the new day.

I’m retired. I’m 71. When I turned 70 I decided to start doing things I wish I could do or have told myself I can’t do at my age. I go to a fitness center now 3 times a week with my 47 year old daughter. I have just started watching your channel and you have some great ideas. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos.

I have insomnia so most mornings I just dont want to get up. Others I force myself. Would be so easy to just stay tucked in nice and comfy. But obligations dictate.

The best way for me to feel positive everyday is to practice meditation and mindfulness. Being mindful has taught me so much.

First thing I do in the morning. Thank God for another day. I think in thought about a lovely friend who means so much to me who has helped me thru Reiki to let go and move on. I love her dearly. She is an angel of light. I am so blessed to have a positive person in my life.

Saying "hi" from the Bronx, New York. I love your videos. Been watching for awhile now, (with my cup of coffee) and they have become a part of my day. Thank you for all you do.

[@ranitaa.8806]

First thing.....dream or lack of dream. I also find interacting with a child (happens to be grandchildren for me) makes me happy in the morning. And I have started a gratitude journal. Oh, and by the way, hug to you, Margaret.

[@sharonworyn8024]

I begin my day with tea, generally ice tea to wake up, and then prayer and Bible reading first thing; some positive inspirational reading, and then I have a list of positive affirmations that I always say out loud. Connecting with God provides one with energy and enthusiasm. After that, I head to the gym. I don't allow an achy body or negativity to fill my thoughts. You CHOOSE how you start your day.

[@danielflake5933]

Hi Deanne

[@HappinessSparkles]

First thing I think of when I wake up is something positive I have planned for that day ?! And coffee LOL

[@Tk30nette]

First thing ....What to cook today ???? lol .I need to plan more. Plus ,i'm sick of cooking !!

[@donnastitz1497]

Toni Kerly HA! ME TOO! My husband has been thru health problems, & so have I. So we find things we enjoy doing together, 1 of which is cooking together. But he gets up much earlier than me, takes a walk then comes home & goes in our Sauna. We worked hard & R blessed to afford to live in this beautiful neighborhood, AND to have our own Sauna! So I think another thing I can do is, get up early, take a walk w him & go in the Sauna with him ! Wink, Wink ;)

[@juliemartin5397]

Hello Margaret, I am enjoying your videos. I have lost both my parents in the last 18 months, and am now thinking of downsizing my home. Your words are very helpful to me at this time, Your videos are very comforting to watch. With very best wishes Carol xx

[@sixtyandme]

My heart goes out to you Carol. Glad that our videos are helping. Take care.

Hugs to you Carol. I totally empathize with you. I lost my mom exactly 12 months ago. I am in the middle of downsizing the contents of my house. Not an easy task. Take care.

[@patriciasmiderle9181]

Carol..so sorry for your losses. My folks passed on over 20 years ago, but seems like yesterday. Bless you dear. I wish you the best. Patricia♥️

[@lynnej.9357]

I generally wake up in a bad frame of mind and spend some time and effort climbing out of that. Lately, I've been sleeping a bit better, so that helps. Coffee is definitely something I enjoy first thing. I've made a decision to work to focus my intentions for the day, in a positive way. Not exactly clear how that will be accomplished. I'm starting to watch your videos and that helps. Every step in the right direction helps a little, at least!

Hmmmm ... first thing in the morning, what am I thinking of? Usually what I need to get done today - ha! I guess I should say that I'm actually one month away from being 59, so not quite 60 yet, but I really do enjoy your channel. When I'm done with my work for the day, it's such a treat to listen to your videos. I appreciate your positive attitude, ideas and suggestions, all of which help keep me focused on the positive. I truly am grateful for this wonderful life. :o) Thanks, Annette

First thing I think of is TEA. I can hardly wait to put the water on boil and prepare the best beverage invented. It solves all my problems...I can think clearly, I can study, read, plan my day etc while drinking tea. Then comes a quick shower and my fav workouts...its therapy.

When I wake..I say "Good Morning LORD...I go to a special corner and have devotion time and remember person in need of prayer..they are mostly women.... My room tells you a woman sleeps in it... I surround myself with things I love....next. COFFEE time...feed birds that come to my yard..watch them eat and bath... I prepare a Gratitude..Food..and To Do List... Best time is when I sit at the mirror...prepare my face to greet the day. Makeup and being a woman is a Wonderful Thing 🙋👠

[@Toadyhead]

I think that the luck you get in life is the parents you're born to. Today, if I were destitute and in the worst of health, I would still consider myself to be the luckiest person in the world to have had the parents I did. Although I don't have them physically with me anymore, I know that their energy has been added to the good and positive energy that surrounds not just me but everybody. So they are still with me. I am so very lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky....
