What Are You Going To Accomplish By Hitting Snooze Today?

​How long are you going to snooze for?
 
Do you really have nothing else to do?  In the time you repeatedly hit the snooze button, you could train for a marathon, start a business, get a promotion.  But it is easier to stay in bed.
 
This, like all first world problems, is not a new one.
 
“At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: ‘I have to go to work- as a human being.  What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for – the things I was brought into the world to do?  Or is this what I was created for?  To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?’” ~ Meditations - Marcus Aurelius
 
What is new is the level of distractions.  Email, IM, Netflix.  These are snooze buttons in disguise to keep you from being present.  To keep you distracted from “your job as a human being.”
 
So, how long are you going to snooze today before you start moving towards your goal?
