There are times, when I am able to make it without its help, but it is invaluable when it calls upon me to do the things that I have prioritized to do, with a priority so high that I cannot allow myself to be late for them.
Some would think that these are the things that my surroundings have prioritized to make me do, with a priority so high that they cannot allow me to be late for them, but deep down inside, the choice is mine. And thereby, I have made it my priority.
Therefore, I should be grateful for the friendship of the alarm clock - because it helps me to fulfill my priorities.
And yes, naturally: there are days, when I wish I could have stayed in bed a little longer. But most often, the reason is that I have been too busy the night before, doing things that I maybe should have prioritized a little less. Because it is an important ability to master: the art of saying no. Not least to say no to myself.
(Translated from Vækkeuret er min ven)
