Summary

Do you enjoy the snooze alarm game? A lot of people you know including yourself do. It’s kind of fun but mostly torture. For 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your level of expertise, you get to see how many times you will hit the snooze button and sleep in 5 or 10 minute intervals before having to jump out of bed and mad dash through the morning to get ready. Every day, you wake up exhausted, you don’t get to the most important thing you told yourself the night before you would do first thing in the morning, your energy is low before noon and by 3 PM you’re begging yourself for a nap. The key to breaking this cycle to start waking up at the time you want and need to is having the habits and routines built in place that make you so efficient that success becomes inevitable. You don’t have to struggle every morning to get up early, you don’t need to set an alarm every night before bed to get up in the morning on time, and you don’t have to suffer through your days forever tired. A few simple strategies you can start with right now are: Go to bed same time (every day) Do not use an alarm Sleep as much as you need (it’s that important) Follow Tom Bilyeu: Website: https://impacttheory.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/TomBilyeu Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tombilyeu Sponsors: Visit http://www.RealVision.com/ImpactTheory to save 20% on a full year of access to The Real Vision Academy.

Your life will change forever the moment that you decide to get up early and really attack your day.

0:06.5

Go to bed at the same time every day.

0:09.6

Don't use an alarm.

0:11.2

Sleep as much as you need, but the second you wake up, you're going to get yourself going.

0:15.7

Let me tell you all about what my life looked like before I started getting out of bed and really getting after it.

0:21.9

One, I was sliding towards depression because my life felt like it was completely out of control.

0:26.2

Two, I was wasting four to five hours a day every day.

0:30.5

Three, I spent my time tired all the time because I wasn't going to bed with intention,

0:35.0

which means that my body clock was all over the place.

0:37.3

I would go to bed two to three hours means that my body clock was all over the place. I would go to bed

0:38.1

two to three hours differently every night, sometimes earlier, sometimes later. I had nothing

0:43.4

specific to anchor to what time that I was going to go to bed, which means that if I just let my

0:49.2

body sleep, then I was going to wake up whenever I was going to wake up. And if I set an alarm,

0:53.1

even worse, I was going to wake up, but feel terrible. Now up. And if I set an alarm, even worse, I was going to wake up but feel terrible. Now, most of the time I had an alarm. So I would just wake up feeling terrible. And I would snooze the alarm and snooze the alarm and snooze the alarm and snooze the alarm. And I would constantly, one, I would still sleep like another hour, but I would do it in nine minute fits and starts. So you end up starting

1:13.2

your day absolutely terribly. You feel like you're on the back foot from the moment you get up,

1:17.4

because by the time you finally get yourself out of bed, depending on if you're talking about a

1:22.1

period when I had a job or when I didn't, which even I can't believe that that's actually

1:26.1

true in my lives, but there was life. There was extended periods of time where I didn't, which even I can't believe that that's actually true in my lives, but there was

1:27.7

life. There was extended periods of time where I didn't have a job and then times where I did. So when I didn't, I would just lay in bed. And when I did, I was on the back foot. And that was when I really could not get momentum going in my life. And I couldn't understand why. Now Now from a biological standpoint, I really did not feel

1:45.1

good. I was low energy all the time. When you're low energy, you lack motivation. When you lack

1:49.5

motivation, then you don't make the changes that you need to make, partly because you're not
