" Some people dream of success while others wake up and work hard at it", Napoleon Hill

The day has just started but I already want it to be finished.... Aw, I have such a huge problem with waking up early. I said to myself "Yes, I will wake up early every morning" ( it was kinda like saying "YES, WE CAN") and it turned to be that I'm not able to do it. I have no clue how it is possible but I cannot hear when the alarm goes off.... I sleep like a log!!! This has its own advantages 'cause I live in the student halls, I haven't got any problem with going to sleep even when there is a huge party downstairs (Yay). However, the biggest disadvantage is that I cannot set up a routine and believe me, I am really willing to do it... Today morning I found some tips how to start waking up early. Here is what I found:

1. The toughest part of the morning si simply getting out of a bed - Haha, this is so true... Remember when you have heard about the importance of daily exercises and that it is quite good to do them in the morning to launch your day in a truly great way? I can't disagree with it, but on the another hand, my morning exercises include such things like trying to open my eyes. I am not kidding. It's quite difficult to succeed in this especially when you're thinking that another 5 minutes won't have any impact on time which you will wake up at... Yes, these 5 minutes are always turning into another HOUR of sleep... 

2. Cultivate a mental environment- This tip includes such things like listening to podcasts related to waking up early or reading about people who were early risers. Once I have read that those who are successful wake up early... Well, it might be possible. Let's look at it from the "mathematical" point of view. If day has 24 hours and we need approximately 6-8 hours (it is said to be the average length  of sleep for an adult), we have 16-18 hours left to do something incredible!!! (or just to study law- yeah, that's my world :P)... Otherwise, if we sleep longer or -as several people prefer saying- we hit the pillow and lost conscious for another hour, we have less time to do what we are supposed to do or we want. And this is the mystery of how to be successful. To be honest, I hadn't believed in this till the moment when I had few good days of waking up early and realised that it was the truth indeed. 

To people who are early birds, we can include for example: 

• Michelle Obama (she starts her day at 4:30 AM)
• Tim Cook- Apple CEO (he wakes up at 4:30 AM as well)
• John Grisham (5 AM is the time when he launches his day to start writing later on)

But obviously, we don't have to wake up at this time. Let's say 6 AM will be the great time to start our day at, hah?:)

3.  Sleep well- we are advised to go to sleep at a reasonable time so we can get enough sleep to wake up early and to have a great amount of energy to kick start our day... Yes, but if you work full-time, or you are a student, mother(it's also the full-time job!), or you are into doing something really important for you and so on, going to sleep at 8/9 PM is not possible. Usually, you go to bed at around the midnight, don't you? Simply, it's important to give our body enough sleep to recover and to let it rest before a new day.

4. Never snooze- Ha! And it is my problem... The surprising thing regarding this is that I do remember only snoozing the first alarms (I have about 14 alarms set up) and I don't remember how it happened that the rest of them is snoozed... Weird, isn't it? I found the explanation for this at last. Simply to say, my mind starts ignoring when the other alarms go off... Ugh, there is no chance to win with my mind, so better for me if I stop snoozing the alarms... Fingers crossed I will not do it tomorrow...

5. Stick to your time - it's the last tip which I find useful. It's saying that we need to wake up every morning at the same time. By doing this, we build our routine... No matter if it's Saturday or any other day which is a day-off for us. The routine is the foundation for everything( I guess we are all aware of it).

So these are tips which I found on the website called http://goinswriter.com/wake-up-early/ and think they are pretty good and pretty obvious as well! Tomorrow is going to be the next attempt- good luck to myself Xx
