Buring the midnight oil...rituals of success

Hey BP family,

For the past 5 years or so I've made it a habit of dedicating the nighttime before bed and rising early to read and recite.

I intensely read mainstays such as Rich Dad, Poor Dad, The Richest Man of Babylon, Think and Grow Rich, Duplexes, Triplexes and Quads, and other personal finance books. I noticed that as time went on, the ritual of keeping those "sacred hours" attained exceptional momentum.... in fact in 2011, I made a personal commitment in writing to buy my first income producing triplex by January 2014. Shockingly, I bought that home in that exact month/year.

This experience has shown me that words are not only therapeudic, they also tend to carry an often misunderstood power to them. Keeping those hours sacred allowed me to focus wholeheartedly on what needed to be done, regardless of circumstance or challenge. The question I would like to pose to the community is this: What is your version of burning the midnight oil? How do you keep you mind and spirit nurtured?
