When i had a boyfriend we went for a good breakfast date almost everyday but after we broke up i wake up at tea time :) Thats really work HAVE A SOLID REASON TO WAKE UP EARLY
I am a medical student, graduating next year and sleeping 8 hrs per night. You can do anything you want, you don't have to sleep less, you just have to have a better management of your time. Sleeping is essential for your brain functions. It may feel like you're okay with 5 hrs sleep but in the long term people who slept less than 7 hours were the ones with more health issues. Be careful.
Wait how do you sleep 8 hrs?? Are you pre-med or actually in medical school? Cuz residents are lucky to get an hr of sleep. I don’t know what kind of program lets you sleep 8 hrs 😂😂
Residents aren't med students, they've already graduated and are working in hospitals as junior doctors. I'm not sure how it works outside Australia, but as long as you make the most of your days to study, you could easily get 8hrs sleep as a med student, even on rotations in the hospital.
itsjenniferbee lol I’ve been waking up at four since sixth grade but this summer I really messed up my sleeping schedule and I’m still struggling with it I’m in my freshman year in high school now
I'm too scared to be out alone that early. Some part of me thinks I'm overreacting but then I read the news and am like nope not ready to get raped or die just yet. Makes me so angry as well. I want to be out early and go running, sadly this society prevents me from living freely that way.
people get hung up on waking up early. you can do all that stuff in the evening, after work. the reason you wake up early to meditate, workout, study, read etc. is because it is 1000x easier to own the time in the morning than it is to own your time after work. when you leave your job you're probably tired and stressed from a hard day of concentration. friends will ask you to hang out, you might have an event to go to, you may have to work late, or some other distraction will inevitably pop up in the evening. nothing ever "pops up" between the hours of 4-7. There are no distractions. Want to earn a certification, wake up early and work on it. want to learn the guitar, wake up early and work on it. want to get swole? wake up early and work on it.
Rowena Tsai It might be really nice to randomize the alarm to not get used to anything. The app Sleep Cycle lets you do that. I downloaded it today, and to me it looks like an absolutely fantastic app. I’ve also been a cronic snoozer for years! It’s time to get that fixed!
One tip I can recommend for those who struggle to get out of bed: After your alarm goes off stay in bed but STRETCH instead of going back to bed. It works so well for me!! I like to just lay for about another few minutes and by stretching it slowly wakes up my body plus it feels good! Look up yoga moves in bed videos on RUclips and you'll find lots of ways to stretch 😃😃
As someone with depression I actually found this video super helpful, I find it hard to get out of bed at all, let alone early in the morning. I particularly related to the idea of “decision fatigue” although I hadn’t really put my finger on what it was before you articulated it.Thanks for the tips, I’ll definitely try them out!
Same here! For me, it's so easy to let my brain to stay in these downward ruts and so hard to get out and face the day. This video was super helpful! You can do it, I believe in you :)!
Me too. I suffer from anxiety which is worst in the early morning. I just wanna bury my head and sleep. But then when I sleep late I feel even worse about myself. Can’t win. Something needs to change.
good luck. Go for a change and start today. Know that you have a whole lot to live for and after doing preps the night before, you should feel less burden in the morning to wake up for.
Just cut down social media you don't need to see what everyone is up to, cuz if you don't you'll wake up early start looking at your phone then baaam time wasted and waking up early went in vain.. It's not just about building the habit of waking up early but also what habits are you going to do when you wake up and this is exactly why it's a hard thing to maintain, Also wasting morning time feels a lot more frustrating than wasting a night time
Going to aim for 5:30am. These tips actually make so much sense! Especially prepping the night before. I use to do that as a teen (because it's how I was raised) and didn't realize how effective that actually is. Thank you!

I'm up at 5AM now guys! Lol had to get an actual alarm clock to put on the other side of the room that gently wakes me up. Also have pre-planned my accessories, hairstyle for the day, and came up with an 'everyday' makeup look if I decide to wear some that day. I do end up eating more because I'm up earlier 🤔
I used to use the bird sound alarm but that created a kind of "hate" towards the singing of birds on my brain to the point that I needed 3 or 4 months to get that reflex out of my head, so be careful ;)
Lol XD i have two sets of alarm. Their difference is the alarm ring. So i don't wake up to the same tune every morning. I tend to easily tune out anything that i hear regularly so if i hear the same sound every 3:30am everyday for 2-3 weeks my brain just gets used to it and learns to "not hear it". And i'll wake up later because i didn't hear the alarm ring. I also change the ring at some times because i easily get bored of the same tune. (￣▽￣;; ) But if i have things planned for the next day, i just automatically wake up early. The same when i had work.
I watched her video on focusing on SYSTEMS rather than goals and a light went on in my mind, because I always focused on goals and to an extent a system, but never a consistent one...This woman is a rockstar

Idk maybe I’m just weird but I feel like I’m the opposite. If I have my bags packed, my clothes laid out, and my breakfast made I’m more obligated to NOT wake up because then I’m like “well I can sleep for 5 more mins cause I just gotta get up and brush my teeth” having all those things to do motivates me to get up because I’m like “damn I gotta get going if I’m gonna do all those things” am I crazy?
After living in Indonesia and waking up at dawn each day with the call to prayer, it’s nice to learn some tips that will allow me to continue doing so without my “alarm clock!”
Amazing! In islam, there are 5 prayers a day. The first prayer is at 5 am. And the quran repeatedly states that "the extra voluntarily" prayers pre 5am are doubled if not trippled in deeds. I dont know. I just found it interesting .
Omg youtube is scaring me! I've been waking up at 4:30 lately to teach English to Chinese students, and I actually liked this time of the morning SO MUCH that I was really considering always waking up around 5 am. I think 6 am would be great at first, but I am aiming for 5 am. I got this video in my suggested videos, and I love your channel!!! So glad I found it. Thanks for your amazing good tips!

Haven't finished the video yet but YES I agree with the putting the phone far away thing. IT DOES NOT WORK FOR ME! I could put it outside and I would still just walk back to bed.
Very practical advice about getting all your bags packed and outfit ready the night before. It’s harder to wake up in the morning if you are already dreading some unfinished task.
It's unfortunate to me that the only alarm sound that wakes me up in the morning is my ringtone, so I am startled awake every day by the overwhelming fear of disappointing someone
I actually feel like I learn something with your videos ~ yes I've heard so many people say to set out things the night before, but you backed it up with decision fatigue & research & actual helpful information ~ Another great video :)
Honestly though, There was a small period in the year 20 of my life where I went to sleep at like 11 and woke up at 7 and it felt so good. Not only was it because I felt highly productive already because I’m already being disciplined but also because of health; I have anemia so the fact that I’d be feeling more tired than others because of my health, which is already affecting me in a way I can’t really control, I CAN control my sleep time. Honestly, the best week (or month) of my life because wow!! The difference is clear! I so want to get back into it but I’ve just been lazy so any tips drop them my way but I’ll do my best to redo this because it was honestly such a benefit!! Overall what I’m trying to say is that I was inspired by your video 💖
ive always hated picking out my clothes the night before. it makes some people a lot more happy to tailor it to how you're feeling that morning. i always look forward to it.
Lucia Shinn this totally used to be me. I’d decide what to wear the morning of work. However, it ended in me missing my train multiple times, not to mention add to my stress and a messy room to deal with when coming back from work lol (i would change outfits like 5 times! Crazy!). But yeah, i just put out my clothes the night before now...and only once in a full moon will i have a change of heart. Saves me SO much time (and my sanity! Lol)
Zainab Numman lol, i can barely get out of bed if i dont have something to look forward to, and i dont in winter (seasonal depression). That's just my little thing to look forward to! I love clothes and self expression haha
Lucia Shinn oh i completely hear you on that girl👏🏽👍🏽. those dark, early mornings...we need all the motivation we can get lol😫😂. I love that you look forward to picking your outfits, i’m exactly the same!! 😍

Love this! Getting on a sleep routine currently where I drink tea, take my pills and turn off electronics before bed. Makes for way better sleep and I wake up at 6 each morning 😊
Super interesting research incorporated into this video! Planning the night before is huge for me - I actually sleep in my yoga clothes so when I wake up I can just roll out of bed, quickly get ready and then go teach or take a yoga class :)
my biggest problem is telling myself that "yeah i can do that task that usually takes me 30 minutes in 10 minutes and skip something else and geT AN HOUR OF SLEEP MORE!" every morning lol i know i need at least 1.5h to get ready and commute as im slow in the mornings (i shower, i wash my hair and do my makeup every day or every other day) but i still wake up really tired (hello depression will you let me sleep.....) and i just....dont want to get up or do anything and i try to justify to myself why im still in bed because i get guilty for not trying to get better. recently ive been trying to sleep better and wake up earlier and some of the things you mention are REALLY helpful! i need to try changing my alarm sound to something softer but im scared that ill just....sleep through it...lol
Such a great video! Last August I tried waking up around 5.30 am (I usually go to bed around 2 or 3 a.m.) and that month was SO PRODUCTIVE and I remember being so happy about myself, it did not feel like a punishment, but on the contrary it felt super amazing! I just need to get back to that habit, now I wake up at 10-11 am and I feel miserable.. thanks for the motivation!
this was the first waking up early video that was actually helpful! Im gonna start doing this tomorrow being that its 2:46 am as I'm watching this video lol. Im glad I found your channel I just subscribed!
I can't help but to giggle at her alarm choice. I need my loud alarms (all 10 of them) cause I could sleep through a freakin hurricane. But I love all the other points she made! Haha
saaaame. I have slept through fire alarms before. Heavy sleeper AND slight hearing loss. I set at least 4 different alarms each morning and they have at least 2 different, really loud sounds. I've been looking into rigging a lamp with a timer so maybe the light will do half the work of waking me up and I could just set one or two normal alarms
Love your videos! I am 63 and can tell you what you are putting out there is true and helpful...you are refreshing! Not because your mother taught you well but because you are passing on your wisdom!
After being ill and the chaos of winter break, I’ve been having trouble getting back into my habit of waking at 4:00am. Pushing back my bedtime by 30min intervals or so right now, glad to be coming back to my early-bird morning routines!
Okay but I know that if I wake up at 4-5am I feel its easier to not feel like my day has gone to waste and I can do everything I like etc etc and this video is exactly what I didn't know I was looking for, thank you so much x (subscribing btw you're awesome xo)
I used birdsong as my alarm all through Uni while I was living in the city. Then I moved back home to the sticks where we have actual birdsong. DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA HOW EARLY THE DAWN CHORUS IS! I was literally awake at 4am thinking why is my alarm going off? But it was actually birds! 2 years later I now wake up to the radio...ironically I also now wake up at 5am.
I've been waking up between 8 and 11am during my holidays then I started school and I couldn't change my routine so I've been skipping school. I would literally get into bed at 7/8 and couldn't sleep until 1/2. This is because I was going on my phone in bed. I got quite behind in school so I had a lot to do this weekend. I set my alarm for 5am but was expecting to snooze until 6am. I read before falling asleep... And I woke up by myself at 4am!!! First thing I thought of was this video I watched ages ago (: I'm so happy, when I saw how early I woke up and tried to get back to sleep but I literally couldn't because my body was already rejuvenated and ready for the day. So I got up, stretched, did my devotions (spent time with God for the first time in a long time!), studied for a bit, had breakfast and took my dog on a big run. Right now having a study break and already gotten so much done. So moral of the story, don't go on screens before bed, listen to your body and you CAN do it!!
You remind me of some of my fav people. So often informative vids are just a straight up info dump. But you really emote with your whole face and body while you talk. It makes it easy to stay engaged because it's almost like being on the listening end of an in person convo. Thanks for these tips. I'm gonna use them to drag myself out of bed in the a.m.
I know!!! Being cold makes me want to crawl into a ball and stay in my blanket covered bed. And if it’s dark my brain automatically thinks it’s still night time ;((
Your enthusiasm is contagious! For my new job I have to leave for work at 5 am. I literally rush out the door last possible minute and am usually late lol... I totally know what you mean about it setting the tone for your day! Thanks!
It was awesome!!! Thanks for asking! ❤️ I actually got up at 4:50! I got so much prayer time and meditation done! And I planned my coffee out the night before so I wouldn’t wake anybody!!! You have been such a motivator for me! Inspiration? Not sure what the word is, but your videos have been super helpful and encouraging! Thanks so much!
I had to wake up at 4am, sometimes 3am for the last year for work and it took its tole physically and emotionally - I wouldn't wish a wake up that early on anyone but if it works for you that's fab! x
I used to go to bed at 4am or even 5am when I was a bartender or server. Now, my career is much better and I wake up at 4am. Definitely get everything ready the night before and go to bed so you get enough sleep for YOU. I hate waking up so early but really, it's way more beneficial than sleeping in until noon or later. I have serious issues with sleeping and I know that this does work.
im in my senior year of high school so there's a lot that i want to change before ending my school years. u really motivated me! thankyou so much 🥰 p.s; sorry for my bad grammar lmao
I just found your channel, and I'm generally not a fan of lifestyle and self-help vloggers because I find it to be too gimmicky, and a lot of them come across as flexing ("I eat only organic food from my own garden, I seemingly don't really have a job, I live in this giant house and these are all reasons I'm better than you" type of vibe that makes me uncomfortable and bored after less than a minute) but your videos have a totally different vibe. Your videos are very calming and very down to earth. You can tell immediately when you open your mouth that you're a humble, spiritual, and amazing person. You really are like, future goals, without seeming unattainable. 😍
Haha I usually fall asleep at around 3am xD I woke up at 9am today and I felt really proud of myself especially because it's summer vacation... I don't think I'll ever get to your level but those tips are super helpful ! I feel more energetic at night but unfortunately it's not the way our society works so I'm trying to become more of a morning person...
I did wake up @3:45 am and get out of bed @4:00 am but now since winter is here I've been hibernating literally it's just so cold now :// I loved waking up early! Can't wait for spring :)
You inspire me. I need to get my shit together, and for some reason, I believe that I can because you did it? You just give me the vibes that you did NOT have your shit together before, but finally do. So I believe you.
I've started waking up at 5am after reading The Miracle Morning. I can't even put into world how much I improve my productivity. I'm reading a lot more, I'm working out, I'm studying way better and by 7pm I'm almost finished my check list.
Thank you so much, Rowena! I’m having a really weird and confusing moment in my life and this video helped me to retrieve that spark of motivation and inspiration I used to have so easily some months ago 💙
Normally I feel videos like these repeat the same stuff, so I usually just watch them with a blank mind, but I don't know why you cheered me up! 4am is unnecessarily too early for me, but I will try to wake up at 5. I will probably not hear the bird chirping tone, but I will give that a try as well... if I succeed, thanks in advance.
My goal this year is to sleep early (before midnight, preferably around 9-10pm) and wake up early / stop being late to class / stop rushing those last 10 minutes and take that extra time in the morning for quiet time (journaling/reading), maybe stretches/yoga (goal is to do front splits and increase flexibility in my spine) and self-care and skincare, maybe even eat breakfast lol, since I never eat breakfast... Which means I need to wake up around 6-7am at the latest. I made habit cards from r/theXeffect and made credit card sized habit trackers (49 days, about how long studies show it took to solidify a habit) and I’ll try to post my cards in the sub after I’m done so I feel some accountability. Whenever I need to wake up early, I would take a melatonin gummy at like 1am (1.5mg or 3mg if I really needed to be out) and set that blaring alarm on my phone, and I’d wake up groggy bc the melatonin was still in my system. 😞 I really need to be less dependent on these drugs to fall asleep (I used to take benadryl or other sedating antihistamines... that shit knocked me out).
Her: So I have been waking up at 4am for 3 weeks straight now Her: So background about me I am not good at waking up early Me: I don't.. I don't believe you
Lovely to found this in my recommended list, been setting my mindset to wake up by at least 6:00 but I constantly find myself stuck at #1 (plus I'm also a snooze kween lol). So thank you for this!!
My first watch. Love your mindset. I’ve been trying to get other people to try waking up at 5:30 with me but they’re like I’m mad. So doing it alone and failed to be consistent more then 4 days straight so your video has encouraged me again and now I’m following you in hopes you share more content like this 👍🏼✌🏻
This actually really helped me. I got re-motivated to start my day earlier and now I'm aiming to get up at 6am everyday. Day one was a success!!! Thank you!
i need a video on how to stop going to bed at 4am😂
Miryah Mckenzie ♡ me tho

I am a medical student, graduating next year and sleeping 8 hrs per night. You can do anything you want, you don't have to sleep less, you just have to have a better management of your time. Sleeping is essential for your brain functions. It may feel like you're okay with 5 hrs sleep but in the long term people who slept less than 7 hours were the ones with more health issues. Be careful.
thank you!
"You can do anything you want" said no one with kids, ever. LOL
Wait how do you sleep 8 hrs?? Are you pre-med or actually in medical school? Cuz residents are lucky to get an hr of sleep. I don’t know what kind of program lets you sleep 8 hrs 😂😂
Residents aren't med students, they've already graduated and are working in hospitals as junior doctors. I'm not sure how it works outside Australia, but as long as you make the most of your days to study, you could easily get 8hrs sleep as a med student, even on rotations in the hospital.
Kaitlin Clemente then don’t have kids
I've literally been waking up at 2 pm for the past month or so and today was the first day I went to sleep at 11 pm and got up at 6 am. So happy.
Lipi Rastogi 👏🏻👏🏻
Good job. I am a student in highschool so I have to wake up at 5:30 every morning
Yeah waking up at 2pm i s just lazy
Time for that to be me
How's the jetlag?
Does RUclips know I woke up at 1pm today? This was recommended to me...
Interesting username lol
**insert Spiderman pointing at Spiderman meme**
Omg so much this
LMAO!!!
SAME AHAHA
I feel like people who wake up at 4am have their whole life together! Like wow 🙌🏼👏🏼👍🏼
or they just need to do their homework
Trust me I don’t 😭
That's how my friend feels about people who make their bed everyday lol
It's an illusion XD Definetly helpful, but it won't solve all your problems.
itsjenniferbee lol I’ve been waking up at four since sixth grade but this summer I really messed up my sleeping schedule and I’m still struggling with it I’m in my freshman year in high school now
Lol I wonder how many people are watching this at 4am.
random videos close, at 3 am, still awake
ME HAHAHA
4:14 AM lmao
It's 6;23am here and I've been awake nearly 24hrs, tbh RUclips needs to recommend me a vid on how to sleep lol
Me lol
How can i wake up at 4 if i go to bed at 4:30?
Well you technically woke up BEFORE 4, soooo
Just never sleep
Wipyzza literally mE
Thats your problem
I go to bed at 6am, welp
I feel so powerful and confident when I am running at 5am, before sunrise, with empty and quiet streets, when everyone else is sleeping.
pindaenbeer same. I'd take early morning walks but I've heard too many stories
👏👏👏👏so proud of you my fellow stranger.
I'm too scared to be out alone that early. Some part of me thinks I'm overreacting but then I read the news and am like nope not ready to get raped or die just yet. Makes me so angry as well. I want to be out early and go running, sadly this society prevents me from living freely that way.
Sounds amazing😍 But unfortunately that would be suicide where I live, a terrible suicide..
pindaenbeer sAME
people get hung up on waking up early. you can do all that stuff in the evening, after work. the reason you wake up early to meditate, workout, study, read etc. is because it is 1000x easier to own the time in the morning than it is to own your time after work.
when you leave your job you're probably tired and stressed from a hard day of concentration. friends will ask you to hang out, you might have an event to go to, you may have to work late, or some other distraction will inevitably pop up in the evening. nothing ever "pops up" between the hours of 4-7. There are no distractions.
Want to earn a certification, wake up early and work on it. want to learn the guitar, wake up early and work on it. want to get swole? wake up early and work on it.
girl you wake up when i fall asleep, i’m shaking
so we’re technically “up” at the same time 😀 you win!
@@rowena can i have that alarm tone on video , the bird one , irobot1988 @ gmail. com , please
No matter what alarm you choose you are going to end up hating it and wanting hit someone when you hear it
baha can def see that happening. I’ve been using this for over a year now though and I still love & appreciate birds dearly ☺️
Thanks for replying to my comment it made me smile!!
I choose things I hate and then put my alarm far away .
Rowena Tsai It might be really nice to randomize the alarm to not get used to anything. The app Sleep Cycle lets you do that. I downloaded it today, and to me it looks like an absolutely fantastic app. I’ve also been a cronic snoozer for years! It’s time to get that fixed!
Rowena Tsai I tried it with the birds but I overslept every single time so I had to go back to the annoying alarms. The other advices were helpful.
One tip I can recommend for those who struggle to get out of bed:
After your alarm goes off stay in bed but STRETCH instead of going back to bed.
It works so well for me!!
I like to just lay for about another few minutes and by stretching it slowly wakes up my body plus it feels good!
Look up yoga moves in bed videos on RUclips and you'll find lots of ways to stretch 😃😃
** STRETCHING instead of going back to sleep

Diana Hayday
I need to try this :)
lilella I do it sometimes half asleep bc I wake up stiff and then I’ll cramp and Im like shit why did I betray myself
Thanks for the tip! I'm going to try this tomorrow morning. :)
As someone with depression I actually found this video super helpful, I find it hard to get out of bed at all, let alone early in the morning. I particularly related to the idea of “decision fatigue” although I hadn’t really put my finger on what it was before you articulated it.Thanks for the tips, I’ll definitely try them out!
Same here! For me, it's so easy to let my brain to stay in these downward ruts and so hard to get out and face the day. This video was super helpful! You can do it, I believe in you :)!
Me too. I suffer from anxiety which is worst in the early morning. I just wanna bury my head and sleep. But then when I sleep late I feel even worse about myself. Can’t win. Something needs to change.
good luck. Go for a change and start today. Know that you have a whole lot to live for and after doing preps the night before, you should feel less burden in the morning to wake up for.
Just decide to live a happy and productive life. It is a choice. Really. Most of us are addicted to suffering.
@@cindi7228 do a short ashtana yoga 20 you tube routine minutes first thing - that’s how I set my mindset for the day.
Y’all pray for me my new job requires me to wake up 4AM
Same
@Anna Sichla lol I wanna know too
I had a job where I had to work early mornings and it was the only good thing about that job. Early mornings are the best
Forget about job, I have to wake up 4 am everyday for school :')
Anna Sichla nope, here I am, up at 4AM lol :,(
Just cut down social media you don't need to see what everyone is up to, cuz if you don't you'll wake up early start looking at your phone then baaam time wasted and waking up early went in vain..
It's not just about building the habit of waking up early but also what habits are you going to do when you wake up and this is exactly why it's a hard thing to maintain,
Also wasting morning time feels a lot more frustrating than wasting a night time
Mate I'm watching this cuz bang bang con starts at 4am in my country ps. R u watching it????😂
@@knot1058 lol i wanted to, but the timing 😢
@@knot1058 oh yeah! Bang Bang Con 💜
Going to aim for 5:30am. These tips actually make so much sense! Especially prepping the night before. I use to do that as a teen (because it's how I was raised) and didn't realize how effective that actually is. Thank you!
Infamously Knownx I've been waking up at 5:30 for the past week by following tip 2, going to bed earlier, and I've woken up refreshed and ready to go!
Hope you can do it I am trying 5:30 too managed today let's try the rest of the week 👍👍👍👍🙃
Infamously Knownx lol what can i say .. lol what i been doing is that i been receiving secrets on my place and ill be getting a p,o box pretty soon. Everything will be confidential but pretty soon ill be creating a web site so i can star my own business.. But i have to say everyone has secret, or a story... if you can't express your self to others ( family, friend, or social media). this is the place for you. where your not gonna be judge by others, who will troll you. Don't be scare in express your self before is to late..... By sending me secrets you will let others know that there not the only ones that are suffering on this world...Because we all have to understand that this world is so big that, no matter what it is there's always one person that experiencing, felling and felt as u did before or after and now..
shhhhhhhhhhh! DON'T STAY QUIET because being quiet is (dying inside, and forgetting life exist)..

I'm up at 5AM now guys! Lol had to get an actual alarm clock to put on the other side of the room that gently wakes me up. Also have pre-planned my accessories, hairstyle for the day, and came up with an 'everyday' makeup look if I decide to wear some that day. I do end up eating more because I'm up earlier 🤔
Infamously Knownx wow, are you single?
I'll set my initial goal to 7.30 for now. Will be enough of a challenge.
I have to wake up at 5:00 for school....😣
Evija3000 omg !!! Dude imwatchi g this at 4:15am and i really need to sleep !
Wow don't take it for granted I have to wake up at 6:00 arrive to school at 7:15 and school starts at 8:35.
my school starts at 7:30
Evija3000 same
I used to use the bird sound alarm but that created a kind of "hate" towards the singing of birds on my brain to the point that I needed 3 or 4 months to get that reflex out of my head, so be careful ;)
ahh! I’ve been using it for more than a year, thankfully still have great appreciate and love for these little fellas
I used to listen to because of you - Kelly clarkson. To wake up for a year straight and i want to rip out my eyes when i hear it now, i feel u
I’ve been using my wind chimes alarm on my phone. It sounds so gentle and non offensive.
Haha
Lol XD i have two sets of alarm. Their difference is the alarm ring. So i don't wake up to the same tune every morning. I tend to easily tune out anything that i hear regularly so if i hear the same sound every 3:30am everyday for 2-3 weeks my brain just gets used to it and learns to "not hear it". And i'll wake up later because i didn't hear the alarm ring. I also change the ring at some times because i easily get bored of the same tune. (￣▽￣;; )
But if i have things planned for the next day, i just automatically wake up early. The same when i had work.
I love your videos, they're like a self improvement therapy session
I watched her video on focusing on SYSTEMS rather than goals and a light went on in my mind, because I always focused on goals and to an extent a system, but never a consistent one...This woman is a rockstar
3 mins into this video and I already love everything about you! Had to sub, I can't wait to watch more of your videos :)
I know this is irrelevant but you’re really beautiful!

oh my god me too, i clicked by acident but aint goin nowhere soon
Same!
Idk maybe I’m just weird but I feel like I’m the opposite. If I have my bags packed, my clothes laid out, and my breakfast made I’m more obligated to NOT wake up because then I’m like “well I can sleep for 5 more mins cause I just gotta get up and brush my teeth” having all those things to do motivates me to get up because I’m like “damn I gotta get going if I’m gonna do all those things” am I crazy?
Christiana Tackett I'm exactly the same!
Nope, everyone is different. Do what works for you to reach the outcome that you desire 😁
I wish I were like this
Christiana Tackett me too!

After living in Indonesia and waking up at dawn each day with the call to prayer, it’s nice to learn some tips that will allow me to continue doing so without my “alarm clock!”
lol I never really wake up to the prayer call from mosque unless it's ramadhan becoz it's gonna be louder ^_^
Amazing! In islam, there are 5 prayers a day. The first prayer is at 5 am. And the quran repeatedly states that "the extra voluntarily" prayers pre 5am are doubled if not trippled in deeds. I dont know. I just found it interesting .
Sweet & Sour thats really interesting, i guess for you (assuming you’re a muslim anyway) that may be a motivator to wake up really early
Exactly we have a solid reason for waking up ❤️
@@aworldtowin955 Yes, but sometimes honetsly I miss it :(
Or sometimes I'm just wake up-praying-go back sleep again hoho.
Omg youtube is scaring me! I've been waking up at 4:30 lately to teach English to Chinese students, and I actually liked this time of the morning SO MUCH that I was really considering always waking up around 5 am. I think 6 am would be great at first, but I am aiming for 5 am. I got this video in my suggested videos, and I love your channel!!! So glad I found it. Thanks for your amazing good tips!
hahaha! Thanks Rowena! Beautiful name by the way. :)

Same scaring me too! Have been wanting to wake up earlier but I never searched it or anything!
Haven't finished the video yet but YES I agree with the putting the phone far away thing. IT DOES NOT WORK FOR ME! I could put it outside and I would still just walk back to bed.
Same. I sometimes get back in bed after showering in the morning!
As a muslim this is mendatory for us to rise atleast 30 min before sunrise to pray our paryer....
Very practical advice about getting all your bags packed and outfit ready the night before. It’s harder to wake up in the morning if you are already dreading some unfinished task.
It's unfortunate to me that the only alarm sound that wakes me up in the morning is my ringtone, so I am startled awake every day by the overwhelming fear of disappointing someone
hahaha SAME !
Maybe turn on the do not disturb button
Claudia McNulty same
Maybe you could change your ringtone to smth more calming? I feel for you bb!
I actually feel like I learn something with your videos ~ yes I've heard so many people say to set out things the night before, but you backed it up with decision fatigue & research & actual helpful information ~ Another great video :)
Honestly though,
There was a small period in the year 20 of my life where I went to sleep at like 11 and woke up at 7 and it felt so good. Not only was it because I felt highly productive already because I’m already being disciplined but also because of health; I have anemia so the fact that I’d be feeling more tired than others because of my health, which is already affecting me in a way I can’t really control, I CAN control my sleep time. Honestly, the best week (or month) of my life because wow!! The difference is clear!
I so want to get back into it but I’ve just been lazy so any tips drop them my way but I’ll do my best to redo this because it was honestly such a benefit!!
Overall what I’m trying to say is that I was inspired by your video 💖
im literally watching this at 4 am trying to sleep how disappointing
Same, it's been about 24hrs awake for me and honestly I'm used to missing random nights so lol
Tyler Joseph? (Profile pic 🙂)
Josh Dun's Hair yes lol
No need to try to sleep. Just start your day then. Lol.
every time you hit the plant i cried a little inside
The plant likes it.
Don’t kinkshame the plant
ive always hated picking out my clothes the night before. it makes some people a lot more happy to tailor it to how you're feeling that morning. i always look forward to it.
Lucia Shinn this totally used to be me. I’d decide what to wear the morning of work. However, it ended in me missing my train multiple times, not to mention add to my stress and a messy room to deal with when coming back from work lol (i would change outfits like 5 times! Crazy!). But yeah, i just put out my clothes the night before now...and only once in a full moon will i have a change of heart. Saves me SO much time (and my sanity! Lol)
Zainab Numman lol, i can barely get out of bed if i dont have something to look forward to, and i dont in winter (seasonal depression). That's just my little thing to look forward to! I love clothes and self expression haha
Lucia Shinn oh i completely hear you on that girl👏🏽👍🏽. those dark, early mornings...we need all the motivation we can get lol😫😂. I love that you look forward to picking your outfits, i’m exactly the same!! 😍
Lucia Shinn lol what can i say .. lol what i been doing is that i been receiving secrets on my place and ill be getting a p,o box pretty soon. Everything will be confidential but pretty soon ill be creating a web site so i can star my own business.. But i have to say everyone has secret, or a story... if you can't express your self to others ( family, friend, or social media). this is the place for you. where your not gonna be judge by others, who will troll you.

Love this! Getting on a sleep routine currently where I drink tea, take my pills and turn off electronics before bed. Makes for way better sleep and I wake up at 6 each morning 😊
Super interesting research incorporated into this video! Planning the night before is huge for me - I actually sleep in my yoga clothes so when I wake up I can just roll out of bed, quickly get ready and then go teach or take a yoga class :)
That’s uber smart!
my biggest problem is telling myself that "yeah i can do that task that usually takes me 30 minutes in 10 minutes and skip something else and geT AN HOUR OF SLEEP MORE!" every morning lol i know i need at least 1.5h to get ready and commute as im slow in the mornings (i shower, i wash my hair and do my makeup every day or every other day) but i still wake up really tired (hello depression will you let me sleep.....) and i just....dont want to get up or do anything and i try to justify to myself why im still in bed because i get guilty for not trying to get better. recently ive been trying to sleep better and wake up earlier and some of the things you mention are REALLY helpful! i need to try changing my alarm sound to something softer but im scared that ill just....sleep through it...lol
lina practice using soft alarms on the weekends
I would recommend using a soft alarm, then set a "hard?" alarm 5 minutes later in case you miss it ☺️
This is the most relatable thing I’ve ever read
Such a great video! Last August I tried waking up around 5.30 am (I usually go to bed around 2 or 3 a.m.) and that month was SO PRODUCTIVE and I remember being so happy about myself, it did not feel like a punishment, but on the contrary it felt super amazing! I just need to get back to that habit, now I wake up at 10-11 am and I feel miserable.. thanks for the motivation!
Not only does she have great advice, but she's also hilarious and totally herself. I just found this channel and I love it!
Watching you is such a mood..u just turned my dull day interesting cuz now I have something to look forward to in my morning tomorrow..thank u buddy
this was the first waking up early video that was actually helpful! Im gonna start doing this tomorrow being that its 2:46 am as I'm watching this video lol. Im glad I found your channel I just subscribed!
I can't help but to giggle at her alarm choice. I need my loud alarms (all 10 of them) cause I could sleep through a freakin hurricane. But I love all the other points she made! Haha
ducky4 puddles I wish I could sleep through a hurricane. Almost everything wakes me up.
On the plus side, my alarm clock beeps just once and I’m up!
saaaame. I have slept through fire alarms before. Heavy sleeper AND slight hearing loss. I set at least 4 different alarms each morning and they have at least 2 different, really loud sounds. I've been looking into rigging a lamp with a timer so maybe the light will do half the work of waking me up and I could just set one or two normal alarms
I slept through a tsunami warning :'( the sirens like a 100 feet down my road
Love your videos! I am 63 and can tell you what you are putting out there is true and helpful...you are refreshing! Not because your mother taught you well but because you are passing on your wisdom!
It's currently 4 a.m. and I haven't slept yet. And this is what youtube recommended me kinda late but okay.
shoutout to rowena hitting the plant accidentally every two minutes haha. love you girl xx
I love waking up to the radio. It gives me something to listen to and to engage me and it is harder to ignore.
After being ill and the chaos of winter break, I’ve been having trouble getting back into my habit of waking at 4:00am. Pushing back my bedtime by 30min intervals or so right now, glad to be coming back to my early-bird morning routines!
Just wanted to say thank you 💕. Really needed a wake up call on priotizing what's important 😣
Okay but I know that if I wake up at 4-5am I feel its easier to not feel like my day has gone to waste and I can do everything I like etc etc and this video is exactly what I didn't know I was looking for, thank you so much x (subscribing btw you're awesome xo)
I need to start to wake up at 4am lol I feel like I would get more done in life
I used birdsong as my alarm all through Uni while I was living in the city. Then I moved back home to the sticks where we have actual birdsong. DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA HOW EARLY THE DAWN CHORUS IS! I was literally awake at 4am thinking why is my alarm going off? But it was actually birds! 2 years later I now wake up to the radio...ironically I also now wake up at 5am.
I totally agree with the alarm thing. I woke up feeling a lot better with a slow, soothing sounds than those annoying ones.
Something super helpful for me is a sunrise alarm! A nice gentle, gradual waking up in the morning xx
Finally someone who DOESN'T look fake
Right? She seems very genuine to me too
And really natural and sweet ! Gonna try this out.
Yes! That's what Iove about her.
I've been waking up between 8 and 11am during my holidays then I started school and I couldn't change my routine so I've been skipping school. I would literally get into bed at 7/8 and couldn't sleep until 1/2. This is because I was going on my phone in bed. I got quite behind in school so I had a lot to do this weekend. I set my alarm for 5am but was expecting to snooze until 6am. I read before falling asleep... And I woke up by myself at 4am!!! First thing I thought of was this video I watched ages ago (:
I'm so happy, when I saw how early I woke up and tried to get back to sleep but I literally couldn't because my body was already rejuvenated and ready for the day. So I got up, stretched, did my devotions (spent time with God for the first time in a long time!), studied for a bit, had breakfast and took my dog on a big run.
Right now having a study break and already gotten so much done.
So moral of the story, don't go on screens before bed, listen to your body and you CAN do it!!
You remind me of some of my fav people. So often informative vids are just a straight up info dump. But you really emote with your whole face and body while you talk. It makes it easy to stay engaged because it's almost like being on the listening end of an in person convo.
Thanks for these tips. I'm gonna use them to drag myself out of bed in the a.m.
Your like the coolest chick, actually really informative!
I feel like I could get up earlier if it wasn’t so damn COLD and DARK in the mornings where I live!!! It’s like waking up in a meat locker. Not fun.
ikr I don't have a problem with waking up early until winter. Just feel so exhausted when waking up in the dark
I know!!! Being cold makes me want to crawl into a ball and stay in my blanket covered bed. And if it’s dark my brain automatically thinks it’s still night time ;((
Ned Schneebly i plej allegiance 2 the band

"I'm a bag lady" Haha. Love it. Love this channel.
I love this!!!! Unfortunately, I work night shift 😣 but one day when I am normal, I hope I have enough self-discipline to do what you do!!!! ❤️❤️
Seriously, I'm so grateful can found this channel. May God always bless you Mrs. Rowena❤️
Your enthusiasm is contagious! For my new job I have to leave for work at 5 am. I literally rush out the door last possible minute and am usually late lol... I totally know what you mean about it setting the tone for your day! Thanks!
"so our decisions become a lot more impulsive"... my reaction: ahh i guess that's why im eating cheetos right now past 12am
Trying to wake up at 5 tomorrow morning! Wish me luck! I have kiddos and need the me time and prayer time! Love your videos!
It was awesome!!! Thanks for asking! ❤️ I actually got up at 4:50! I got so much prayer time and meditation done! And I planned my coffee out the night before so I wouldn’t wake anybody!!! You have been such a motivator for me! Inspiration? Not sure what the word is, but your videos have been super helpful and encouraging! Thanks so much!
RUclips has been recommending this video to me for like three weeks and now I’m subbed within minutes.
🌚💕 appreciate how persistent the ‘tubes can be sometimes, and appreciate you for being here and for this comment Shay!
Rowena Tsai Thank you for the kind words. Your videos are beautiful. Thanks for sharing them 💕
I had to wake up at 4am, sometimes 3am for the last year for work and it took its tole physically and emotionally - I wouldn't wish a wake up that early on anyone but if it works for you that's fab! x
I used to go to bed at 4am or even 5am when I was a bartender or server. Now, my career is much better and I wake up at 4am. Definitely get everything ready the night before and go to bed so you get enough sleep for YOU. I hate waking up so early but really, it's way more beneficial than sleeping in until noon or later. I have serious issues with sleeping and I know that this does work.
One of the best videos on RUclips on this topic. Thanks!
I totally agree
Michael Thomas trueee
im in my senior year of high school so there's a lot that i want to change before ending my school years. u really motivated me! thankyou so much 🥰
p.s; sorry for my bad grammar lmao
I just found your channel, and I'm generally not a fan of lifestyle and self-help vloggers because I find it to be too gimmicky, and a lot of them come across as flexing ("I eat only organic food from my own garden, I seemingly don't really have a job, I live in this giant house and these are all reasons I'm better than you" type of vibe that makes me uncomfortable and bored after less than a minute) but your videos have a totally different vibe. Your videos are very calming and very down to earth. You can tell immediately when you open your mouth that you're a humble, spiritual, and amazing person. You really are like, future goals, without seeming unattainable. 😍
I like to achieve 15mins of cleaning morning and evening. The house will always be clean and organised 👍
I want to wake up in 05:30 but I just say "I will just close my eyes for 2 seconds" sadly those 2 seconds turn in an hour...
So true😂
Rowena Tsai hahaha
Eva why is this me?!! 😭😂❤️
the most important thing to actually staying awake is sitting up. if you can do that then you will be up
It's super exciting to be waking up at 4am! I love doing it!!
I have a hard time waking up early in the morning, and RUclips just recommended me this. WOW just WOW
Is it just me or is it harder to get out of bed as you get older? 😂
I can relate to you so much. I do the same thing in the morning, I turn off my alarms, and go back to sleep, haha. Thanks for keeping it real! : D
Ive just recently started waking up at 4:30am and its changed my life! Great video :)
And I just love how animated you are! The accents are the best part 😄 .
Haha I usually fall asleep at around 3am xD I woke up at 9am today and I felt really proud of myself especially because it's summer vacation... I don't think I'll ever get to your level but those tips are super helpful ! I feel more energetic at night but unfortunately it's not the way our society works so I'm trying to become more of a morning person...
I did wake up @3:45 am and get out of bed @4:00 am but now since winter is here I've been hibernating literally it's just so cold now :// I loved waking up early! Can't wait for spring :)
You inspire me. I need to get my shit together, and for some reason, I believe that I can because you did it?
You just give me the vibes that you did NOT have your shit together before, but finally do.
So I believe you.
I like how you speak so natural and comfortable infront of the camera... You are so cool
I go to bed at 4 am 😆
go you
i think you're living my best life
Rowena Tsai you're my favorite rowena tsai!!!!!! i 🍠 convinced 🙆💕
I've started waking up at 5am after reading The Miracle Morning. I can't even put into world how much I improve my productivity. I'm reading a lot more, I'm working out, I'm studying way better and by 7pm I'm almost finished my check list.
Thank you so much, Rowena!
I’m having a really weird and confusing moment in my life and this video helped me to retrieve that spark of motivation and inspiration I used to have so easily some months ago 💙
Normally I feel videos like these repeat the same stuff, so I usually just watch them with a blank mind, but I don't know why you cheered me up! 4am is unnecessarily too early for me, but I will try to wake up at 5. I will probably not hear the bird chirping tone, but I will give that a try as well... if I succeed, thanks in advance.
I am still trying.
you're the coolest!! thank you! your tips are very helpful and omg i love your positive energy
i love rewatching old rowena's videos.
I love watching Beauty Within, but seeing you in your own videos being so beautifully yourself is awesome. I love how genuine you are
My goal this year is to sleep early (before midnight, preferably around 9-10pm) and wake up early / stop being late to class / stop rushing those last 10 minutes and take that extra time in the morning for quiet time (journaling/reading), maybe stretches/yoga (goal is to do front splits and increase flexibility in my spine) and self-care and skincare, maybe even eat breakfast lol, since I never eat breakfast... Which means I need to wake up around 6-7am at the latest. I made habit cards from r/theXeffect and made credit card sized habit trackers (49 days, about how long studies show it took to solidify a habit) and I’ll try to post my cards in the sub after I’m done so I feel some accountability. Whenever I need to wake up early, I would take a melatonin gummy at like 1am (1.5mg or 3mg if I really needed to be out) and set that blaring alarm on my phone, and I’d wake up groggy bc the melatonin was still in my system. 😞 I really need to be less dependent on these drugs to fall asleep (I used to take benadryl or other sedating antihistamines... that shit knocked me out).
Her: So I have been waking up at 4am for 3 weeks straight now
Her: So background about me I am not good at waking up early
Me: I don't.. I don't believe you
Same😂😂😂
Love your personality and humor ☺️😄
Lovely to found this in my recommended list, been setting my mindset to wake up by at least 6:00 but I constantly find myself stuck at #1 (plus I'm also a snooze kween lol). So thank you for this!!
If I could choose a RUclips bestie it would be you! 😊
That's cool but this isn't trendy anymore... real people wake up at 2am now... keep up please
ugh yes noted. hip kids these days can’t keep up anymore 😭😂
siti haidah she’s joking....
@Anna Sichla dump people, lol, I actually want that to be a phrase. But good point, by the way :P
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
My first watch. Love your mindset. I’ve been trying to get other people to try waking up at 5:30 with me but they’re like I’m mad. So doing it alone and failed to be consistent more then 4 days straight so your video has encouraged me again and now I’m following you in hopes you share more content like this 👍🏼✌🏻
This actually really helped me. I got re-motivated to start my day earlier and now I'm aiming to get up at 6am everyday. Day one was a success!!! Thank you!
I even use the birds chirping alarm now instead of the super loud annoying one, I woke up so relaxed LOL
