Lately I’ve been having a hard time getting my ass up and out of bed in the morning. The snooze button is just too tempting. What do you guys do to help get up right away rather than hitting the snooze 16 fucking times. I already have my alarm across the room. But right now, with the cold, it’s really hard to get up out of the warm bed to start putting on cold clothes. Ideas? ---

Blast the alarm on something really annoying. I currently use Kiss 98.5. Miley Cyrus got me out of bed this morning right quick. 🖕 ---

I often find myself waking up about 5min before my alarm goes off… (What an odd phrase, doesn’t it technically go on?)… anyway, if I get up at that point I’m fine. If I wait for the alarm to go off/on I have trouble waking, but usually get up at about the 3rd snooze. ---

I get out of bed and take a shower. I look forward to a nice hot shower in the morning to wake up. ---

Usually next to a fat chick… Im a heavy as hell sleeper so I do 2 alarms on the phone and 1 actual clock. Try setting a few alarms around the room all within 5 minutes of each other lol. Sounds funny but it would work. ---

I take it you don’t have an 8-5 job? I’d love to hit snooze a bunch of times to, but I have to get up and get my ass to work so I just do it. ---

Also I set my alarm for the last possible minute so I know snooze is not an option. Mine is at 8:15 and I have to be in my office on the 19th floor downtown by 9. ---

> [@JayS](#): > > I take it you don’t have an 8-5 job? I’d love to hit snooze a bunch of times to, but I have to get up and get my ass to work so I just do it. Actually I do. That’s the problem. Everyday I wake up only with enough time to get dressed, do my hair, make a protein shake and drive like an asshole to work. I need to motivate myself a little more so I can wake up and have time to eat breakfast, shower, and make a lunch so I can stop spending money on lunch everyday. ---

I casually roll out of bed whenever I feel the time is right. 🙂 When I was in the military I just got out of bed when the alarm went off because I knew I had to. ---

U know the alarm on our phone called “siren”? I set that so it goes off every 5 minutes (7:05, 7:10, 7:15) so no matter how many times i hit snooze, theres always an alarm going on, i get fed up and my body is like OKAY ENOUGH IM AWAKE!
