Hi Jacko,
I am writing you through the comment section because I was not able to find an email adress I could write to on the website.
First of all, it’s an honor to be on the show (in case I make it to the podcast)!
My name is Thomas, 30 years old, living in germany. You already answered the question about how to get up early in a few podcast sessions, but I still have a rough time to make it a habit.
I need way more sleep then my girlfriend needs. Besides from that, my girlfriend is a pretty light sleeper, so almost every time I go to the bathroom at night or have an early alarm, it is pretty much guaranted she will not only wake up but take really long to sleep in again.
Even if I am awake early (not out of bed), I feel like “why should I get up already?”. Yes, I could work on a little programming project I do or play a videogame I like, but that’s stuff I could also do after work as well but does not motivate me enough to get up. It like my back is glued to the bed.
So, I feel like, my problem has to do with why I should get up rather than actualy doing it. I also feel like forcing myself to do it with willpower somehow (had several tries over the last 10 years, did not work for more then 2 weeks) would be the “Disciplin equals freedom” or “Extrem Ownership” way, but not the kind, paranting way to myself.
There was a time when I woke up at 4:30 am, went to the gym, had a shower and felt awesome leaving the gym at 6 am seeing people coming in later then me. But even that fainted after approx 2 weeks.
When I wake up early, I actualy feel really good and proud of myself. The last attampt was half a year ago, when I tried to go for a little run after waking up early. After one week, I cut my route short. After that day, I quit again.
I am not good at giving up. That’s why I am still trying to figure it out after 10 years of failed attampt I know that I have to make waking up early a habit before I add several other habits (otherwise its not going to work out anyway). I feel like, waking up early is the key to a successful life! Hope you can help me!
Regards
Thomas
