    Like Nike says: "Just do it." Seriously, if I let myself lay in bed and think about it, I don't get up. I just have to get out of bed and go when my alarm goes off without allowing myself to think about it. If I allow myself to make excuses as to why I can't go early, I will, so I just don't.

    For me, it was 'simply' don't think about it. Don't hit the 'snooze' button. I get up and get it done. 9/10 time if I think about it, I'll talk myself out and sleep instead

    I keep a little bottle of caffeine pills next to my bed. Once my alarm goes off, I hit snooze and take one. I'm usually up by the time the alarm goes off again...

    Just do it before you are really awake for the day, works for me. If I don't do it then doesn't happen. I want the results so I setup the night before clothes, keys, water bottle etc. so I can do it in my sleep. >:)
