Lately, I’ve been trying to get into a good routine in order to make the most of my time in a day. This is easier said then done! I have a short two hour window where the youngest naps and the eldest is at school to get anything done and usually a long to-do list to get through. SubhanAllah this past week, my body couldn’t cope with the overload of adding too much in a day and every evening as I put my youngest to sleep, I would pass out! The best part of falling asleep at such an early hour meant I would be wide awake in the early hours of the morning.

This is such a blessed time to be awake. It is the most productive I have been in a long while. Not only was I spiritually present, I was then also able to put my time and energy into this blog, planning the following day, what to cook – all the big questions of the day! Alhamdulilah!

When trying to get those extra hours to get work done in a day, try being awake at dawn and see how that benefits you!
