4am vs 5am

Getting up before everyone else has been one of the biggest life-hacks.

I go through cycles where I get up early with no problem.

It’s easiest in the summer months.

I set the alarm for 5am and get up at 5am.

In the winter, I set it to 5am and get up at 8am.

It’s beyond hard to leave a warm bed…

My day now revolves around the extra hours in the morning.

I can squeeze two weeks of work into one week with this routine.

It’s now critical to get up early now that I’m officially a morning person.

I made two major changes
- Set my alarm for 4am
- Set my furnace to crank up to 80 degrees (vs 68) at 4am

By 5am I forget it’s winter and the bed is too warm…

Now I get up at 5am and forget it’s winter.

Think of it this way: create the environment you need to succeed.
