Early Riser Step 1: Stop blaming yourself.
Stop giving excuses of why u can't do it. Don't blame it on your genes, health, the things you ate last night or whatever u can think of!? It has nothing to do with why u need more sleep!
Early Riser Step 2: Get plenty of fresh air.
The first thing you have to do when you wake up is to breathe in fresh air! Stop going back to your bed for 1 more minute of lazing around and go for fresh air instead!
Early Riser Step 3: Don't eat before you sleep.
The last thing that goes to your mouth should be 3 hours before you sleep.
Early Riser Step 4: Don't use the snooze button.
According to research, it is harder to wake up after using your snooze button than waking up when the alarm first goes off!
Early Riser Step 5: Put flowers in your bedroom.
It has been proven that people who woke up sleeping in a room full of flowers seem to be happier? (I'm gonna pass on this one :p)

Bright wall colors has been proven to activate energy cells!

Give your body 5-15 minutes of stretching, it might work wonders for u.
Early Riser Step 8: Start the day with a smile.

That's a quickie! I'm not saying I have done all that...but err....lets just say we all work hard together to achieve a more healthier life.
