    The trick is to not care about what other people say is a good time to wake up. A good time to wake up is when you feel well rested.

    Fuck the premise that everyone should wake up early and that it’s a good or virtuous thing. Getting a good night’s sleep is a good thing.

      Sure, but in the context of the post where waking up early may have desirable benefits, there are ways to make it easier on yourself while still getting a good night’s rest.

      Honestly, I love that everyone else is still asleep when I get up. I enjoy the peaceful quiet of the early morning gym or an outdoor run at dawn, and if everyone actually took my advice, it would absolutely ruin it for me.

      Or you could accept that there are benefits to making attempts to conform to the norms of the overwhelming majority of adults.

      Sorry you had overbearing parental figures or whatever, but I enjoy being able to hold down jobs with regular schedules, and not having to adjust my sleep schedule just to get to stores while they’re open.
