We all know that there’s nothing more disheartening
than being woken from your slumber by the screech of your alarm at 7, 6 or even
5am. But if you’re willing to give up a sleep-in for the sake of waking up
early, it’ll leave you with more hours in the day and can allow you to
accomplish your fitness goals much faster, as well as having a positive effect
on your mental wellbeing.
The
benefits of waking up early
1. In
2008, biologist Christoph Randler discovered that early risers are more
proactive. In fact, research showed that they were more likely to agree with
statements such as “I spend time identifying long-range goals for myself” and
“I feel in charge of making things happen”
2.
Randler’s research also
revealed that morning people are more likely to anticipate problems and
minimise them efficiently, which leads to more success in the business world
3.
Experts agree that going to bed
earlier and waking up earlier allows for a much better sleep, as your body is
more in tune with the earth’s circadian rhythms. So avoid those long Netflix
binges that go well into the late hours of the night, and hit the sheets
instead!
4.
Morning people can better use
their quiet time for organisation, goal-setting and planning out their days and
weeks ahead.
5.
Early risers have much more
time to exercise, whereas those who wake up later in the day may have trouble
fitting an exercise regime in their schedules.
6.
Studies have shown that morning
people are often more positive, more optimistic, and are more likely to feel
satisfaction in their lives than night owls.
7.
The commute is much less
congested in the early hours of the morning, which allows for a much more
stress-free ride to work.
8.
Snoozing late into the day often
means missing breakfast. This is definitely a bad idea, as eating breakfast is
the foundation to good eating habits. Waking up early also gives you time to
prepare a delicious, much more nutritious breakfast that will sustain your
focus throughout the day.
9.
Waking up early correlates with
better grades. A study conducted by Texas University found that students who
consistently woke up early each day scored better test results and overall
grade points.
10. Willpower is strongest in the morning. Choosing to devote the early
hours of the morning to exercise, strategic thinking, creative work, your diet
and nurturing relationships means that you’ve devoted your most focused hours
to these activities before most people even have breakfast.
