New Habit – Getting out of Bed When I Wake Up

I’ve spoken at length in the past about how important habits are and how I should constantly be developing them.

I don’t think I’ve really been focusing on one in a while, and it’s time to start!

At the moment I’m doing a good job of waking up without hitting snooze. I’m also on a news diet and am avoiding Facebook and other sources of current-event information as well.

And Imgur is blocked on my phone.

So there isn’t much pointless entertainment left on my phone, which means I don’t even have anything to do in bed after I wake up.

Why not just get up?

I’ve wanted to do this for many years, and I think now I’m finally ready for it. It will add a ton of productive time to my week, and will let me finish things way faster.

So, I’ll do it! I’ll post more about it here as I progress.

  1. I’m not sure I even gave this an honest effort at this time. Interestingly, I finally started doing it just a few days ago and it’s crazy how much extra time it gives me. Not sure why I didn’t keep up with it at all (or even start it?) then, but I’m hoping to do much better now!

  2. My habit for a while now has been to do my daily studying first thing in the morning without leaving bed. I may want to alter that to going elsewhere to do it, but that’s probably something I should be doing only after I’ve established other habits, most notably: waking up without hitting snooze.
