There's been quite a lot of threads regarding hours of sleep, sleeping patterns, etc lately. So I thought I'd share how I wake up early and easily every morning.
I usually sleep 3 - 5 hours a night due to university lifestyle, I wake up at 5:30-6:00 with no problems.
How do I do it?
Well 60% comes from my motivation.
I've come to understand that the each time I press snooze, times still ticking. Time never stops and more time I waste, the longer I'm stuck being a sidewalker.
I know you might be thinking "Oh what a waste of time, I knew that already!"
But don't worry the last 40% is the best part.
The 40% comes from my alarm.
I've simply replaced my radio alarm clock with an app on my iPhone. Every night I plug in my iPhone and place it on my bed. The app than detects my sleep cycle and wakes me up when it's the best time for me to wake up. It's sort of related to how people take power naps or commit to those crazy sleeping patterns. Yet a lot better because it doesn't require commitment and hard work. It replaces your current alarm clock that you've learned to hate with something you'll soon love.
I've stumbled upon this app about 1.5 years ago and I've been using it ever since. There's many apps similar to these ones and there's also alternatives if you don't have a smartphone.
Here is the one I personally use/used:

Sleep Time | Azumio
There's alternatives found here: Best Mobile Alarm App: Sleep Cycle
Non-smartphone versions such as sleepyti.me bedtime calculator (but more of a hit and mess from my experience).
Hope you enjoyed the thread!
