I want to wake up early for the same reasons as you :D Well done!!
How to wake up when my alarm clock goes off
It made me
Super Happy 
How I did it: This summer I went on a trip through Europe where I was also studying grade 12 english. And every morning we would have to wake up for our 8:30 class, usually I'm always late for first period class, but something about being on a trip made me feel compelled to every single day we had class be on time. I would even wake up early enough to have breakfast (I never did at home) since it was so good and pre-made at the hotels we stayed at.
When I came home I set my alarm for a bit earlier in the morning than the past years, and only allow myself to press sleep once. It's been over a month since I got back from europe and I'm still waking up early enough to eat breakfast, put on make-up(which I never did before), and pick out an outfit that works rather than anything I find.
Lessons & tips: I think this is really something you have to do yourself, nothing people told me to do helped, something about being in europe helped change me :P
