10 Surprisingly Easy Tips to Wake Up at 5AM | Wake Up Earlier 🔆

These 10 surprisingly easy tips have helped me wake up at 5am or wake up earlier in general. Waking up at 5am and being a morning person was never something I thought I could do, and now I don't mind waking up early in the morning at 5AM to workout and then go to work. Waking up at 5AM, 6AM, or even 8AM can all be done with these easy tips on how to wake up earlier! If you're wondering how to wake up at 5am, how to wake up earlier, or how to be a morning person -- I hope these tips help you!
In terms of sleeping earlier, I would say just try waking up at 5AM no matter what time you sleep. Then...for sure...you will fall asleep earlier the next day! Hehehe.
