How to wake up when my alarm clock goes off
It made me
 "Finally after years of struggling, I am now up at 6am! And haven't been late for work once!""
How I did it: I set the alarm clock 20 minutes fast so I had extra time (even if sleeping in for a few minutes or trying to work out what to wear) and I also set my mobile alarm (three times) to ensure that I really did get woken up. Lessons & tips: When the alarm goes off, get straight out of bed.. Resources: Alarm clock and mobile phone

How I did it: I bought a really, REALLY annoying alarm clock called Clocky. It runs away on these little wheels when it goes off, and it makes a bunch of random, annoying noises that are impossible to get used to. One of the problems I had before was that I got used to the sounds of my alarm so I accidentally trained myself to sleep through it.Something else that always helps to get me out of bed is that "oh crap" feeling, as if I'm late for something … Read how I did it…

How I did it: One day I was very active physically and mentally, so I decided to listen to my body and go to bed at around 10 PM. When my 5:45 alarm clock sounded, I was well rested and ready to start my day. Since I had been up so early, I got tired earlier that night, also. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Perhaps this is cheating, but basically, I now set my alarm clock to the last possible moment for me to get up (i.e. if I hit snooze and wake up any later, I will be horribly late). I used to set it to give myself enough time to enjoy my morning. Don't do that. Just set it for the last moment you really have to get up.Also, the other thing is, I used to believe sleep was good. I still think it is, but I try not to think of it that way. I … Read how I did it…

Good morning!
How I did it: Got a clock radio stereo that would wake me up to any song I picked out on my ipod. I choose songs I do yoga to, and that just opens me up... I wake up happy and ready to greet the day. Getting enough sleep is imperative to mastering the wake up. Read how I did it…

How I did it: I thought to myself: "okay... my alarm is ringing... time to get up." and then I got up. But then I realized I had so much extra time so I just went back to sleep and still made it to school on time. If you like taking your time in the morning, then you should wake up when your alarm rings. But if you take 1 minute to get ready... go ahead and sleep for 20 more minutes! Read how I did it…

Since this is a new year’s resolution for me, I absolutely intend to accomplish it by the end of the year. And it may take all year, at this rate. sigh I am doing better because I’ve put my alarm clock across the room, but I’m still hitting snooze and jumping right back in bed. NO! BAD! It’s just so COLD in my room in the morning. I need to just get in the habit of getting right into the shower first thing to warm up. I’ll keep on working at it.

I’m failing at this. Today I was supposed to get up at 8am, do some homework, go to a chemistry review at 10, and then work at 12. I set my alarm for 7:45 to give me some snooze room, and ended up waking up at 9:30. I didn’t have time to get ready, so I ended up missing the chem review, and hopefully I won’t do too badly on the test. :(
I’ve tried everything I can without really annoying my roommates. They already groan loudly every time I hit snooze.

FINALLY

We have had a break through ppl! Last night I put my alarm outside my door (and turned it up REALLY loud) when it went off I tramped right across to get it and then I was pretty much in the bathroom, so i just got in the shower – by the time i finished I was awake and kicking, a whole hour earlier then I normally get up after hitting the snooze button ten times! Im going to keep doing this and hopefully will train myself to the point where I dont have to (my boyfriend is NOT a fan of this new technique) but is the best so far!
atinus still sticking with it :)
NOT POSSIBLE!

I have tried everything.. I find that even if I put my alarm on my desk I get up and turn it off then sleep again! Tmrw the plan is to place it by the door or under my bed. Hopefully that helps!
