You wake up an hour before the Alarm - do you get up & start the day? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life4 months ago

So I wake up this morning one hour before the alarm is supposed to go off. I lay there and try to drift back to sleep- but it's not going to happen. Then I lay asking myself "do I want to just lay here for an hour and stare at the clock or do I get up and go ahead and start my day?" This is such a tough question because if I get up then I get tired in middle of day or want to go to bed early tonight & then am awakened early again tomorrow morning. What do you choose to do?

Hi there.
If I wake up an hour before the alarm, I would probably go back to sleep and would savor my one hour. I also have the tendency to extend my alarm for 5-15 minutes more. Because I really am craving for sleep. I love to sleep. And I am really lazy. thumbupthumbup


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

Oh I love sleep too, but there are days like today and I just can't sleep.... very frustrating!!

I'm the same way. I go back to sleep. I go to bed late, so I need as much sleep as I can get. I also extend my alarm! lol

I also did the same. Most of the time, I turn it off, go back to sleep.. Then, when I woke up. I'm already late.

First I would be really annoyed as I had woken early! I would try to go back to sleep as I am the same and do not like to feel tired in the middle of the day. If I couldn't, I would choose just to lay and enjoy the quietness for a short time and get up 10 minutes earlier. I would try hard not to go to bed early that evening so I did not wake early the next morning. happy

I was very frustrated, but what can you do!! You're right, though, it is very quiet and peaceful that early in the morning.

I will prefer to wake up and start the day because I will not be able to sleep again and continue the dream I was having so I will better wake up and do something else instead of lying on the bed.


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

That's what I ended up doing. I'm now done with my workout & showered... had my coffee & breakfast... and still have an hour to myself before the kids have to get up and get ready for school. This could be a great day after all.

If I woke up one hour before my alarm went off I would probably get up and start my day. This used to happen to me occasionally and I found that if I went back to sleep, it was harder for me to get up because I seemed to fall back into a deep sleep. sadHave a great day and happy mylotting.


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

That's what I did, just got up and got started. I'm ahead of the day & actually feel great about it.

Hi there and smile.
Sometimes when im still so sleepy i will just extend my sleep. But there are times that i get up so early and do the hip hop abs video. I do that when i know my body is in good mood.
Its always been my practice to rise early in the morning to do the exercise but lately my schedule is broken again because i feel so lazy and tired. I will stick to my good schedule again.
happy mylotting and smile always!


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

I try to work out every morning as well. I usually go for a run. It was actually nice out this morning- very dark when I went but I got it out of the way, thanks to being up sooo early.

One hour is a little too long.Waking up 10-30 minutes before the alarm may make me a little happy.Because I can make use of these period to pretend to sleep and think about the coming day at the same time.If I'm aroused my alarm I will think the day is so awkward.


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

I do that with my alarm clock as well. I try to squeeze an extra 10 - 30 min. by cutting out the extra things that can be done later in the day. It is usually nice when I can get up and get going though. I get so much more done... I just usually crash mid-afternoon or earlier at night. Hopefully i won't do that tonight.

Hey there! Wow, you're brave. I've never risen before the alarm. After it is another story! hehehe...I was always late even going to school up to college. I do love sleeping and can't seem to get enough of it. If I don't get enough sleep, it would seem the day will stretch on and on and on... I would sleep in most days and end up feeling great and can function well at work! Have a great day!


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

Funny! It had nothing to do with bravery... not sure what the issue was this morning. This happens about 2 - 3 times a year and I just can't sleep!! Not so fun, but I usually manage.... like today! Hopefully I can keep going until tonight and then I'll sleep soundly.

For me. I don't I'll wait for my alarm to set off before preparing my day, because I prepare my alarm 2 hours before going to school. That's why I want to wait for the alarm to set.


myLot reputation of 90/100. KMPierce (117)   ranked 5,559 out of 38,209 in life  4 months ago

You're good!! I would hit the snooze way too many times before I actually get up if I set my alarm 2 hours ahead. I set mine 1 hr & sometimes hit the snooze. But then I have those mornings that I just can't sleep any longer and I'm up regardless of what the clock has to say..

That's great that you have a routine like that. I love sleeping until the alarm goes off... but I have those mornings when i can't sleep any longer & just give in & get up. I also have a routine of running every morning--- it's great for mental clarity and spending time with God as well.
