mornings are getting tough getting out
of bed should be an Olympic sport it's
that hard but you should want to be the
Michael Phelps of rolling out of the hay
because if you up your sleep you
can pick up your life chronic sleep loss
has been linked to heart disease stroke
and diabetes it can also impair the
thinking and learning processes while
contributing to symptoms of depression
perhaps most frightening is you kill
your sex drive and speed up the process
of aging so if you don't want to die and
be hot listen up waking up on the right
side of the bed of course means you have
to get a good night's sleep the night
before that means get enough sleep six
to eight hours ideally sticking to a
sleep schedule maintaining a comfortable
sleep environment if you're feeling
really ballsy about getting some quality
shut-eye and you should be then cut the
caffeine boots and screams like TV and
your laptop well before you go to bed
don't go to bed hungry don't go to bed
full and don't go to bed a thirsty while
you're sleeping you can't really do much
aside from well sleep so let's skip that
part and get right to the good stuff
waking up first and foremost set
yourself up for success have your alarm
clock across the room so you have to get
up to turn it off if you drink coffee
reset it to brew before you wake up and
for the love of everything that is holy
don't hit snooze once you're out of bed
have a big-ass glass of water
it can get your metabolism revving and
flush out toxins plus rehydrate your
body and it's good for your brain but
most important of all have goals and a
plan when you wake up in the morning why
are you waking up early to work out or
maybe grab a coffee wake up with the
mentality of a chin not a scrub now get
cracking because next time you shut-eye
you better shut it down
