"My alarm goes off at 6:05 a.m. every day to U2's "Beautiful Day." I like U2, and I like to start every day thinking it's going to be a great one. If I have a meeting, it's set even earlier. My problem is, I hit the snooze button once or twice. It is not good if I hit it three times, which means I won't be up until around 6:30."
"The enemy might be that I have two phones. I have a personal device and a work device. By the time I've gotten up out of bed, I have already looked at both to see if anything was urgent from the night before. It can become the enemy when I become distracted and lose focus. I try to be disciplined about setting both aside at times and frankly shutting down all screens, but I am a work in progress."
She wakes at 6:05 a.m. to U2's "Beautiful Day," sometimes hitting snooze once or twice. She immediately checks both a personal phone and a work phone to identify any urgent overnight messages. She plans outfits in advance, often the night before or on Sunday, to reduce decision-making during the week. She recognizes that early device checking can become a distraction and practices discipline to set phones aside and shut down screens. She approaches unexpected events by pausing briefly and moving forward, maintaining outward composure while managing activity beneath the surface.
