Waking up early is not my jam! I don’t care how much I try, I’m just not a morning person!
Can you relate or are you a morning person?

There are two keys to getting up early
1. Having something to be excited about
2. Cold showers
After leaving my 9-5 in 2021 I spent the next few years in a slump
Went from 7am to 730am to 8am then struggling to get for 9am
But for the last 9 months I've been up at 6 (even most weekends) and have done a daily bitcoin show every day as well
Life changing
The cold showers are like a line of cocaine (from what I hear) without the crash
I used to wake up at 4:50 am to workout but after my 3rd baby I don’t have the energy for that and I really don’t need to wake up that early, so now I wake up around 6ish with the school schedule. No matter how many years I’ve woken up early, my body doesn’t like it 🤪 I just wasn’t built that way I guess 🤣🤷🏼♀️
I do take cold showers but usually after my workout 🏋️♂️
That’s great that you still wake up early, there is something nice about it. And definitely having something to look forward to doing helps. Way to go on the consistency of your bitcoin show! I do the same with my podcast but with the kids schedule it’s usually done mid day when the baby naps 😅
My husband is the same way, even on the weekend he tends to wake up early.
Kind of a morning person, can't sleep longer than 10 am no matter how late I go to sleep. Could adjust to earlier but gf is an evening person so I'm adjusted to her rhythm.
But trying to wake up early just for the sake of it is useless imho, unless you can leverage it (quiet hours with no family distractions for example). It's the same amount of waking hours you have regardless of when you get your 8 hours of sleep. And cutting sleep to wake up early is just dumb, it's not sustainable and leads to worse performance during the day.
Yeah during the week now with the kids schedule I wake up early to get my workout in before I have to get them ready. On weekends I try to sleep in (if they let me) 🤪
