5 things to do if you’re trying to wake up at 5am but failing every morning: 1. Be EXCITED to wake up for what you’re doing. You can’t look at it as a “punishment” or a “I have to do this”. Ya gotta fake it till ya make it. 2. Romantacize your evenings routine. Shower, skincare, favorite book, bedtime snack, comfy pjs.. 3. Avoid looking at any inbound emails / messages from work for the first 30-90 minutes of your day. Your morning is for YOU. Treat it like it’s sacred. 4. Put your phone down by a certain time every night. Don’t get caught doomscrolling for an hour before bed. Give your body time to wind down. 5. Remind yourself that action doesn’t require motivation. And on the days it sucks, but you still show up? That just means you’re getting closer to the person you want to become.
