    All you need is a hungry cat.

    My dog likes to beat his giant tail on my bed, dresser, anything in his path to wake me up. I don't even need an alarm anymore. :joy: Can't ignore the happy tail and hungry belly of a golden retriever. At least he's cute.

    I usually wake up without an alarm after I've had 7 hours of sleep but I don't always get to sleep 7 hours and sometimes I go to bed really late. In that case, I set up an alarm on my phone and set up a wake up call via my friends living in different time zones @Michael_Lucas @sunn_lighter :*

    I open my eyes and if it's at least 5AM o:) I'm up. The only time I had a problem waking up was when I had a job I hated and was trying to stay in it until I got vested so I could quit. They finally fired me, but vested me so I wouldn't sue them. ;)

    I have a tiny person who wakes me up at 5 am every day. Sometimes he screams, sometimes he just sneaks up and jumps on me. Sometimes if he's still sleepy he lays on my face, smothering me.

    He also wakes me up at 2 am sometimes, just in case I'm getting too much sleep.

    You're welcome to borrow him whenever you want.

    Ha ha me too,but he doesn't climb on my face till after 7 lol
    He also does the 2am wake up sometimes,but only if I'm really tired or just falling asleep

    How do I do it? Ummm...I open my eyes. I have a responsibility to myself and my children to provide for them mentally, emotionally and financially. I wake up at 5:00 to be at the gym by 5:30. Then back home to shower and cook breakfast. I leave at 7:45 to be at work by 8:00. I don't get home until sometimes 8:00 or so, but will be in bed a little before 10:00 and repeat all over again.

    In other words...it's a choice. I choose to awaken early and start the day. I'll sleep more than enough when I'm dead.
