Hit the morning running

It's on days when I resolve to wake up earlier than usual that I almost always wake up late.
Case in point this morning when I made my internal clock promise me to wake me up at five but instead it pushed me out of bed after six and that's when my lunch plans didn't wholly go as planned.
Before I begin let me talk a bit about lunches that I pack in the morning.
Usually, almost six times out of ten they need no prior meal prep that is if they're sandwiches or fried rice or noodle salad etc and the ingredients are immediately available in the fridge or pantry they can be used just as.
A bit like plug and play but many a times when the lunches are in the nature of salads that involve legumes that need soaking and boiling like chickpeas, lentils etc or even black rice and such then the prep has to be done a day in advance.
Same for dishes like Idli or dosa for which the batter has to be made prior to the day of preparation.
I'd planned on making falafels for lunch today because that way even I can have the same for my meal..I'd been craving it and thusly yesterday was spent making yeasted whole wheat bread dough for pita and soaking chickpeas for falafel, the rest of the accoutrements like sliced vegetables for filling could be taken care of this morning, morning which I didn't wake up on time and so with the manic speed of sound I hit pots and pans, doing a bit of dj work on all my hobs with falafels getting cooked in one pan and pita breads on another I regretted not being early enough to get everything done in advance.
I had exactly forty five minutes in which I'd to prepare at least two pita breads.
Make at least half a dozen falafels
Make the sauce
Chop vegetables that were avocado and cucumber
Assemble everything into pita pockets
Pack into lunchbox.
And oh, cooking breakfast was not an option this morning.

Right, so the assembly couldn't be done even though I prepared and chopped all that I could on time and what I eventually packed was a deconstructed version of falafel, wherein all the elements were individually packed and all that was needed during lunchtime was a bit of DIY.

How does one exhaust themselves so early in the morning?
I'll tell you. Wrong decisions, failure to set up alarm. Irresponsible behaviour and taking time for granted.
However I now have the leisure to rectify these errors and make myself a languorous, luxurious meal.
