    The biggest trick for me is being able to "SLEEP" when I "go to be early". 2.5 hours before bed I take a melitonin. 1 hour before a magnesium tablet, and a cup of double strong sleepy time tea. This is so powerful and it changed my life. I get up feeling rested, ready to poll vault into my day.

    I wake up at 5 am and make some coffee and after that meditate and hit the gym. After the cold shower in the morning my great day start and I am more productive and positive and happy than I was years ago!

      Cold showers are beneficial in ways I think few people realize. I still start out on warm and just finish cold but it's very revitalizing.

    I've heard from others how important the coffee ritual is as well. It induces almost a meditative state and you enjoy the coffee more too. In addition, a pour over is much better than a standard drip coffee maker.

    I get up an go for a quick walk. Even if I can only get 10 mins in. This movement can make or break my productivity if I do or miss doing it. During this time I can start to plan out what I need to get done.

    Great video and a new take on this. I shall be aware of the need for light. I'm on a mission to become a Morning Person. I expect many people have heard of the book The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod. I was sceptical about his SAVERS method, silence, affirmations, visualisations, exercise, reading and scribing as a Morning routine but it is indeed powerful. I would recommend this read to you all.

    In order to transition from late to early mornings, what worked for me is waking up at the set time, even if I don't feel like I got enough sleep.

      Not really it just helps me to sleep better. I have always been kind of a long sleeper though. Like 9 hours is where I feel my very best. Typically now I go to be around 10pm and get up about 6:50am I just have to make sure I take the melitonin at least 2 hours before bed or it will make you groggy in the morning.

    I can't have coffee or tea.. So I gather I have to find some other way to pass the half asleep time right?
    But I use the phone only when I cannot wake up..I mean it's so bas that if I put my head down on the pillow after looking at the time, I will fall asleep again, doesn't matter how much sleep I got. It's irritating. So, I use the phone to open my eyes. I only see the news and WhatsApp. But I don't like the habit. I am still looking for other ways to do this. Wish me luck!

    I appreciate the insights as I've struggled to get my days started earlier. I do wonder if you are truly a bona fide "night owl" ( a sincere question, not an accusation)? Studies from prestigious universities like Harvard medical and U of Toronto have determined that there is a spectrum for a small minority who have all the processes and hormones in their bodies affecting sleep occur hours (ranging between 2-6 hours) later than the mean average. My question is if you genuinely tested this and determined yourself to be truly a night owl or if simple habit had allowed you to live without early mornings? The implications are far-reaching suggesting anyone with a bit of self-discipline can learn to love mornings... I am sure a healthy dose of discipline will allow anyone to utilise mornings but, like left handedness or blue eyes the natural tendencies will always be there prodding one back. Was this a monumental and continuing struggle or merely just getting over the hump to smooth sailing?

    • @kayneassasin

      This is a valid question is rarely discussed in these types of videos. Most just say do X, Y, and Z and you will become a morning person. This works for MOST people, but some people truly have a circadian rhythm that says go to bed at 4 or 5 AM. For those people they will always naturally want to fall back into that habit as circadian rhythms tend to be far more rigid than most people think.
      Most people are only night owls because they choose to stay up late, but the proof is in the fact that they tend to not sleep in late either or that they can easily fall asleep during the night with minimal effort. The advise "goto bed earlier" works for these people.
      People like me get fucked because I am naturally legit a night owl. I am very happy to wake up at 4 PM if given the choice.
