How do you wake yourself up in the morning?

Hi,

Unlike most threads in the general chat section, I'm actually geniunely interested in the answers.

How do you wake yourself up in the morning?​

I try a few things, with little success. I find it much easier to work after I've had breakfast, shower and everything. Therefore I have to resist the temptation to start straight after I've woken up.

Ok, so picture this :

Thanks,

hmm nice and interesting question you got there.. it made me ask my self.. hmmm.. i dunno.. hahaha.. ill just get back to bed.. but if i really want to.. id just have to force my self then.. dont know in what way.. but id just think that i must wake up.. ill try doing this.. haha

 

usually im set a time using my handphone.

 

Cofffeeeeee my inbuilt alarm (my brain says wake up i need coffeeeeeeee.....)

 

With my cellphone which doubles as my alarm clock. I really can't go anywhere without it.

 

I set my alarm clock on my cell phone and just wake up

 

Guys, please read slightly more than the title . Theres more to it than just 'waking up'

 

i know.. did i answer it corectly though? hehehe

 

I usually fall out of bed.

 

guys read the topic and its content carefully..

 

The alarm clock in my cell phone will wake me up.

 

Mhmmm... Holiday... 9 a.m in the morning... interesting.. should I have work to do I'd probably do it like i do like any day of the week.

Wake up --> sit in front of my computer while brushing my teeth and reading emails --> have breakfast while replying emails --> zip through all my fav blogs, forum and torrents, rss, download if necassary --> work. Bathing optional... usually if I still feel drowsy after all that.... ^____________^

If I still don't feel like working... I'd put up some uplifting trance music ... but these are rare occations...

 

coffee, vitamins, and exercising makes me feel more energetic.

 

Who pushes you?

 

Don't you hurt your back that way?

 

Hmm...if it's like the weekend or something and I have to get myself up to do some work...I'll set my cellphone alarm, hit the snooze probably 3 times, and finally just think "Ok, seriously...you have to get up. I really want this site to not suck."

Once I finally get up, I'll turn on the computer, go brush my teeth, take a shower, go back to the comp, read some blogs/emails and slowly get motivated to do what I need to do for the day. As long as I slowly work into it, it's not that bad.

 

Depending on what the work is, I have to get myself in the mood. So if I have to do some website work, I come to DP, read some posts, browse around any other sites that may get my mind thinking on the right track.

I do not however try to energize myself. If I feel energized, then I end up wanting to go outside rather than work on the computer. So on holidays I tend to work as I am when I get out of bed. Always having something to much on helps me concentrate as well.

 

alarm clock
of course
But I turn the alarm clock off and fall asleep again some times

 

for me, breakfast is a must
