Have you ever hit the snooze button? I have and every morning I’ve hit the snooze button I felt like I started my day off with failure. I then asked many other people how they felt after hitting snooze on their alarms and the response has been the same. They were in a negative mental state for the better part of the day—tired, groggy, angry at themselves, feeling like they were already behind and therefore stressed, etc. These observations have led me to an unpopular idea that you should never hit the snooze button because when you do you begin your day as a failure. Hearing that might make you ready to skip this lesson, but allow me to explain, and furthermore, tell you what you can do to prevent that. Once you hear the full lesson, try out my methods and see how positively they affect the way you wake up. That in turn will positively impact the rest of your day. When you do, I’d love to hear how they help you out. Also, if there’s any other tips you have for waking up better, more rested, I’d love to know those too.
