Are You a Morning Person?

August 4, 2009 8:39am CST
I wakeup automatically, at 5:30 a.m every morning whether is rains or shines, weekend or work day. I enjoy this time because I have the time to just relax with a big mug of coffee and listen to the overnight news. I am glad to see the dawn and get exciting about my day. I am often told at work that I never get angry, and I don't. I want to make every moment of the day a good moment. I love life, so to waste it on negativity is a no no in my life. Do you feel the same way? Are you a morning person? Are would You rather keep the shades pulled?

I'm a morning person too I usually wakes up 5:00 am or 6:00 am. Even if I forced myself to wake up late I can't my body clock dictates me to wakes up early no matter how late I'm sleep at night I still gets up early. It is my problem when I'm working at night shift back then I can't sleep during the day I'm still sleepy during my shift.

I normally get up at about 5;30 to 6:00 am in the morning. My daughter inlaw does the same so I normally go over there and see what she is doing. I am not a coffee person so I just go and site with her on the porch in the morning's. My son work's late so he normally doesn't get up until 9:00 am or better so we try and be quiet in the morning's.

I am not a morning person. I get grumpy for no reason in the morning. Its great that you enjoy the sunshine and chirps in the morning but I'll live with scowling over my coffee.

Yes, I am an early riser by about 4.45am in the morning. Wherever I am whether at home or gone out of station, or traveling I get up exactly like an alarm clock, although during journey I just keep awake lying at home yes I too prepare my coffee and love to sip it. I too love to watch the rising sun and it is quite enjoying here the chirping of the birds and the cuckoo bird sing.

Well i like the life style you are having now. But i'm not a morning person at all . Actually i enjoy morning sleep very much . Now everything changes because i just gave a birth to a small boy early this year. i have to get up every morning at 6am to feed him milk . i would feel guilty if i don't get up on time because when my baby awake he sees us still sleepy and he would continue to sleep. It's no good to him at all because he is very hungry already.

I'm a nightowl. It's 5:30 AM and I'm just now wrapping up things to go to bed. I work in the evenings also. I guess it's just more peaceful in the world at night when everyone's asleep in the city.

I am a morning person and I always feel fresh when I wake up early in the morning. In the spring and summer it is delightful to wake up at 5.30am because it is getting light at that time. In the autumn and winter it is better to walk up an hour or two later. My baby girl usually feeds at 5am and then I get her dressed at 7 to 8am. I feel happy and full of energy in the morning. I always have a clear mind at that time of day. I feel tired after lunch and even worse by the evening. I am a lark rather than a night owl.

Yes, I am a morning person, because even I want to get up late in the weekends, I will tend to wake up early as usual like in the weekdays.

I am a morning person and my husband is a night owl so we sometimes meet around lunchtime! I am usually up at four a.m. and I like to get all my household chores out of the way so that the rest of the day is mine to do as I please. I am just one of those people that do the best work early morning. I don’t usually attempt difficult tasks after 3P.M. if I can help it.

Well it depends, I used to love sleeping till late, like 10am. But iv started something, which Im very excited about.So I tend to wake up say 6am now, because I just wana work because Im passionate about my work. I get what you're saying about negativity and stuff. I tend to keep away from people like that, as their moods tend to rub of on you if you don't watch out! I like feeling Positive, and the thing is, I don't wake up and "poof ",I feel Great ! I need to be humble for that, and own to earth so I can see the things that really matter,the things that make me smile.I quot my job in Jan, and Iv been falling more and more with life. I guess your just a happy chappy, my love . Keep smiling and shining like that, its people like you that keep the world turning.
