Go to sleep early: Get between seven and eight hours of rest to make getting up at 5am easier. Get up as soon as the alarm goes off: No snoozing. Make adrenalin your friend. Drink a glass of water immediately: This helps to kick-start your system Play a high-energy, pump-up song to get motivated when you need that extra push.
