In this brief motivational monologue, David Brimacombe outlines a simple, phone‑free morning routine designed to reduce stress and set a positive tone for the day. He advises getting out of bed, placing your feet on the floor, looking out the window, and immediately stating a positive affirmation—either "today is going to be a great day" or, if you’re struggling, a more compassionate version like "I’ll do my best to make today a great day." The practice is presented as a habit that can improve mindset, support PCS (post‑concussion syndrome) recovery, and foster overall well‑being.

The first thing you do when you get up, you're not thinking about your phone, thinking about the stresses of the day. I get out of bed, I put my feet on the floor, I look out the window, and I tell myself, today is going to be a great day. If you're struggling, if it's really tough, you can say, somehow today is going to make— be a great day, or I'm going to do my best to make today a great day.
