8 Tested and trusted tricks to make yourself wake up earlier

3. USE PEER PRESSURE TO WAKE UP ON TIME

Set a meeting with other early risers first thing in the morning.
This is effective because:

1. It creates accountability; you won’t want to let them down.
2. It uses biological signals; studies have shown that when we have something important to do at a certain time, our bodies will wake us up naturally. That’s why you wake up right before your alarm if the task is important enough.
3. You’re putting something at stake—your reputation as somebody who follows through.

When your alarm clock is the only thing counting on you to wake up early, a warm bed is more compelling.
