The Challenge<\/h2>\n

What would your life be like if you woke up early for a year? Ok that’s quite a reach. What about just 30 days? I think you can do that. If you already wake up early, good for you. Maybe this can inspire your routine a little or maybe you can help others who are in the challenge.<\/p>\n

Waking up early was hard for me when I started. I kept hitting snooze and had no motivation. I used elements I learned from the book The Power of Habit to trigger positive feelings that would reward me for getting out of bed. Every morning I would watch an episode of some addictive TV series while I drank my morning coffee. By the end I was usually inspired to do something productive like read, journal, meditate, go for a walk, etc.<\/p>\n
