2. Set a routine for every night

To make your mind habitual to a specific routine, make one. Setting a specific routine will make you sleep on time.

For example, I walk before sleeping. Without it, my mind doesn’t let me sleep. Whether it is 8.00 PM OR 10.00 PM, if I walk, I feel sleepy right after walking.

If you hesitate to go outdoors for running or other exercises, order some fitness equipment and a treadmill.

3. Set the alarm

Set the alarm and put it across the room. You will have to leave the bed to switch it off. Set a relaxing alarm tone, so your day starts with positivity.

An activity tracker would help you here. So, you can buy a fitness band for yourself. Don’t worry, they come at affordable prices. You can check here:

4. Set snooze to adjust your body

Some people may not find it useful. But it is helpful for me because snoozing lets me adjust my mind and body to come out of sleep.

I prepare myself for the morning daily routine.

5. Go slowly _{(the powerful mantra to wake up early)}

If you are a night owl, you will encounter many excuses, difficulties, and weaknesses to wake up early.

So, don’t be hard on yourself! Go slowly!

For example: if you wake up at 8.00 AM, set your alarm for 7.30 AM for the first week or till you get habitual to this time. Later you can set it at 7.00 AM, 6.30 AM and so on.

6. Spend time with nature when you wake up early

This is the reason, I wake up early in the morning and trained myself to be an early bird so that I can see the beauty of nature.

Watching the sunrise gives me new hope. It feels I have wasted my day if I miss out on the chirping of birds, ringing bells of the temple, cool breeze, and other stress buster activities that happen around me.

7. Do something that excites you

Everyone has a list of some good habits or things or foods that excite him/her very much. So, do these things in the morning after waking up.

Make a list of things that you love.

For example, some people love tea, some love doing exercise and many others love reading a book or novel.

8.  Exercise in the morning

For some people like me, exercise is a brain booster.

Tune in to some uplifting music, get on the treadmill and your brain will not trick you to go back to your bed.

9. Wash your face with water

After 15 minutes of getting up from the bed, the first essential thing you should do is wash your face with water.

It fills you with energy and makes your mind fresh.

10. Set your morning routine

It helps a lot. Your mind knows your routine and it gets habitual to this routine.

So, It doesn’t trick you to sleep again when the alarm rings to wake you up.

11. Make your mornings free

If you leave a list of pending works for the morning, you will always find it difficult to wake up early.

Because it kills your excitement of becoming an early bird.

12. Listen to music, sleep early, & wake up early

It works for me. After getting up from the bed, I tune in to my favourite playlist of some soothing tracks.

It retains my excitement and makes yoga and other exercises entertaining for me.

Music drifts my mind away from the thoughts of sleeping again (check).

13. Relax your mood before going to sleep

You must have heard about quality over quantity. If your goal is to wake early every morning, you must take a sound sleep. Even a 6-hour sound sleep is better than an 8-hour poor sleep.

For sound sleep, you should refrain from social media at least 1 hour before your bedtime. Do not indulge in anything that excites you before sleeping.

For a sound sleep, you can try listening to some soothing music, chanting om or meditation.

14. Let go of your night owl thoughts

Don’t think that you are a night owl, you can not wake up early or it’s not your thing, etc.

These excuses are for nothing but stopping you from becoming an early riser.

15. Find your motive behind waking up early

If everything fails to work, refind the main motive behind waking up early?

Do you want to wake up early to make the most out of your day or is there something else?

Once you are clear with your motive, you will find a motivation too.

16. Troubleshoot why you fail to wake up early

Every person in this world has their own sets of weaknesses. Similarly here, find your weakness which is hindering your goal of becoming an early bird.

Once you find it, you can work on it properly.
