Getting Ahead in the Count

There are certain things that we do in the morning that place us - to use a baseball expression - ahead in the count. Our odds of having a good day are enhanced. When we overlook those, we may have to scramble to catch up to where we should have been lest we may squander the day. These items may seem small and yet they are important.

We know them, but on some days, due to no cause other than our own choice, we fail to do them. Knowing what triggers that choice can be a major productivity tool.
