When I worked for someone else, it was difficult, so I put the alarm on the other side of the room where I HAD to get up to shut it off. Then straight to a shower to wake up. Now, I work for ME, so it's easy to get up and I don't even NEED an alarm.
Since I know being late will negatively affect my business, it's no problem waking or getting up.
I have an hour or sometimes 2 to myself, house is quiet, I grab a cup of coffee....maybe catch up on a little news....its a more peaceful way to wake up other than that blaring alarm clock going of....OH, I forgot to add the sunrise! Beautiful. It is NOT hard at all to rise early!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
