How I did it: i just really had to stick to an idea. i gave myself a goal- if i wake up, then i can get to work, and if i make it through work, i can have things that make me happier. and once i started doing that, and realized i was happier because of it, i was able to do it anytime because i wasn't beating down the idea of waking up ever time i heard that chime.

How I did it: I used three different alarms set to go off within five minutes of each other around the room. It was annoying but soon I had the habit of just getting up and stop hitting the snooze. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I basically figured out what I think is worth waking up over. Work? No. Exercise? Hell no. Working on my business? Ding, ding, ding! Each day, I basically do each of those things. I just happened to try the one that worked last.Starting out working on my business at 5:00 or 5:30 every morning had these benefits: I leave for work feeling super-accomplished already. I spend some of my "mental juice" working on what's important t… Read how I did it…
How I did it: When I first heard about this concept it was in Benjamin Franklin's amazing book called 'Early Rising: A Natural, Social and Religious Duty'. =)This was first published in 1856, so it's hardly a new problem to be able to wake up on time!The thing is, in my opinion you should wake at the same time every single day of the week.

I actually did it today. I use the alarm on my iPod so I woke up to Oingo Boingo’s “No One Lives Forever”. It took me a few minutes but I managed to get up by the time the song finished. I’m glad I did.

The alarm is my enemy but I want to make it my friend. When I started college I always went to sleep and woke up at the same exact time but since I started working, my schedule isn’t as steady as I would like it to be. I’ve been getting plenty of sleep the past few days so I hope I can be rested enough to resist the urge to hit snooze.
Late to work 2 times a week (on average), because if I don’t leave home by 6:30 it isn’t worth leaving until 9:00 due to horrible traffic.
But I still have those days where I just hit the snooze button and wake up an hour later realizing I have 10 minutes to get prepared ahah. Yet I’m not late for class so it’s not THAT bad
