You know that rule “shut down all screens” 1 hour before sleep, but there’s always something to watch/to program etc. Have you found the discipline to do it regularly?
How do you deal with the going-out in the evening, if you strive to wake up at that time?
Do you have some interesting/intense routine like running, which was quite common in american movies?
If I need to get up at 5AM I just set my alarm and as soon as the alarm goes off I hop out of bed, to force myself to actually get up before I get the chance to start thinking about it (and postponing the getting up part).
As for what I do in the evening: if getting up at 5AM every day is my goal I just start by setting my alarm at 5, and aim to go to bed earlier. If I did go to bed late the night before, I would still set my alarm at 5 and just be tired the next day. Because the next day I’ll feel so tired I’ll automatically end up going to bed earlier. So it works itself out. So if I really wanted or needed to get up at 5AM every day I’d just do it even if I didn’t sleep enough hours the night before. Once I’m in a routine I don’t even need to set my alarm. I’ll just automatically wake up at that hour.
