Monday: Having a goal in mind makes waking up in the morning a little easier

God knows, waking up in the morning for school and making it on time for class already proves extremely difficult for most students. Your body is accustomed to the familiar ring of the alarm, but all that means is that you instinctively flail your arm around in desperate search for the “snooze” button.  

Now if you are anything like I was not so long ago, and you finally wake up after incessantly hitting snooze for the billionth time, you would look at the clock you think- “oh shi#$ its already six-thirty?” - and proceed to scramble your way out of bed.




To all those people who are able to sympathize with me, I say this: find something in your life that is truly worth waking up for! Please don’t take this the wrong way. By no means am I trying to say that everyone who is currently sleeping past the alarm clock has nothing in his or her lives worth waking up for. I am merely trying to help some people who suffer from a chronic lack-of-making-morning-classes.

It got to a point in my life where I was regularly sleeping in, and missing the first two of my A.M. classes as a result. Subsequently, I realized that there is no way that this could possibly be sustainable (not to mention sitting down and having a long, painful talk with my parents and guidance counselor).

This might sound cheesy, but having a long-term goal (honestly anything works whether it’s relational, academic, or financial related) really motivated me. And as a result, I am now always up in the wee hours of the morning, most of the time even before the alarm goes off. Remember, the early bird catches the worm!
