I love getting up early, if for nothing else I've got the first crack at the coffee pot. Software engineer Dave Cheong has compiled a list of tips that have helped him get his booty out of bed on a consistently early basis; my favorite was this one:
Have something to look forward to. Waking up early can be hard work, especially when you are used to sleeping in. Having a purpose is a good start, but this isn't always enough. I mean, come one, are you really going to get up early to work on some TPS report for work? What I do in addition to having a purpose is to have a reward or other attractive incentive to get up for. It can be anything. I personally look forward to having time to check my emails in the morning, eat breakfast and drink a cup of tea.
See? So I wasn't too far off with that whole coffee thing, now, was I? How do you manage to get yourself out of bed early every day? Let's hear it in the comments.
