How can I get up earlier in the morning? If I get up later, I do not have enough time for breakfast. I don’t want to have a brunch or lunch as my first meal of the day.

I set a coffee or healthy energizing beverage near my bed and a vitamin with some ginseng. Helps me get some energy in before I have to even leave my room. Hope this helps!

Hi. Only way is have a few alarms set. So 6.30am, 6.45am and on 7.00am you get up with your gear is looking at you to put on and go. Only way. Good luck. James

The hardest part is always transitioning your state of mind. When I wake up in the morning (usually around 5am,) I’m sore, cranky, dehydrated & the only thing I wanna do it go back to sleep. But that’s where you need to nip that habit in the but. Get up, pee if you need to, & then you should always hydrate first. Even if you have to force yourself & you can only stomach half a glass of water, do it. Once you have that habit on rotation, start with eating something small, but sustaining. Like, a glass of milk, a granola bar, or peanutbutter toast.

If you’re not a morning person it can be hard to get up earlier. Something that helped me was a mix between going to sleep earlier (even if I didn’t fall asleep earlier) and forcing myself to get up when my alarm went off, no matter how much I didn’t want to. I made sure to always have a responsibility, chore or something scheduled for early the next day to trick my brain into actually waking up earlier. It’s gotten hard as of late now that my job has me until later in the night but I’m still getting up early to draw or read or do whatever I want before work. It helps to have something to look forward to earlier in the morning and sooner or later getting up early becomes the norm.

Well, the most important thing to wake up "when you want" is to sleep at least 8 hours. Nobody can complain that he can not wake up early if he goes to sleep late (It seems obvious but it took me a while). The second thing is, if you can’t wake up 'naturally', set alarms. If you don’t wake up, set stronger alarms and away from bed. Do whatever you need to make you stand up. After that, it’s up to you to make everything from falling asleep again. Turn on the lights, turn the radio up, open the window, wash your face, etc. Following the fabulous steps also helped me (following a ritual and read the messages/articles that motivated me to follow that routine). Day after day try to think what is making you not waking up early and find ways to fight it.

Exercise at the same time every day if you can. Otherwise, go to bed early, listening to calming music when i go to bed helps me

You could use more than one alarm or you use an alarm that’s super annoying and super loud and place it in the other side of the room so you have to stand up to turn it off. Then I’d immediately drink some water because that awakens you too. (At least it awakens me)

Go to be at the same time every night and get up at the same time every day allowing yourself at least 8 hours of sleep no tv or any social media before bed

Choose a portable breakfast or make your smoothie the night before and look at getting up a few minutes earlier as an opportunity to enjoy it.

Set an alarm and make sure that I sleep on time. I think it’s correlating with the bed time ritual. If that is good and not too late, I can get up early in the morning.
