The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8AM)

An Unimaginable Reality
No,  I  don’t  recall  seeing  the  headlights  of  a  massive  Chevrolet
truck  coming  directly  at  me.  In  an  instant  of  perverse  fate,  the  full-
size  Chevy  pickup,  traveling  at  an  estimated  80  miles  per  hour,
smashed  head  on  into  my  undersized,  and  under-matched  Ford
Mustang.  The  following  seconds  played  out  in  slow  motion,
Tchaikovsky’s  commanding  melodies  orchestrating  our  wicked
dance.
The  metal  frames  of  our  two  vehicles  collided—screaming  and
screeching  as  they  twisted  and  broke.  The  Mustang’s  airbags
exploded with enough force to render us unconscious. My brain, still
traveling  at  seventy  miles-per-hour,  smashed  into  the  front  of  my
skull,  destroying  much  of  the  vital  brain  tissue  that  made  up  my
frontal lobe.
Upon  impact,  the  tail  end  of  my  Mustang  was  shoved  into  the
lane on my right, making my driver’s-side door an unavoidable target
for  the  car  behind  me.  A  Saturn  sedan,  driven  by  a  16-year-old,
crashed into my door at 70 miles per hour. The door collapsed into the
left  side  of  my  body.  The  frame  of  the  metal  roof  caved  in  on  my
head,  slicing  open  my  skull  and  nearly  severing  my  left  ear.  The
bones  of  my  left  eye  socket  were  crushed,  leaving  my  left  eyeball
dangerously  unsupported.  My  left  arm  broke,  severing  the  radial
nerve  in  my  forearm  and  shattering  my  elbow,  while  my  fractured
humorous bone pierced the skin behind my bicep.
My  pelvis  was  given  the  impossible  task  of  separating  the
Saturn’s  front  end  from  my  car’s  center  console,  and  failed.  It
fractured  in  three  separate  places.  Finally,  my  femur—the  largest
bone  in  the  human  body—snapped  in  half,  and  one  end  speared
through the skin of my thigh and tore a hole in my black dress slacks.
Blood  was  everywhere.  My  body  was  destroyed.  My  brain  was

permanently damaged.
Unable  to  withstand  the  immense  physical  pain,  my  body  shut
down,  my  blood  pressure  dropped,  and  everything  went  black  as  I
plunged into a coma.
