Get Up Early

    I've always been an early riser. Not because I had to, but because I want to.

    What I do is simple: I go to sleep when I'm tired. Then my body wakes me up when I'm not tired. (Okay, occasionally the alarm wakes me up. But I usually wake up before the alarm.)

    Our body has natural cycles, so these times change over the course of a month. Sometimes I stay up later, sometimes I go to bed early. But always when my body tells me it's time.

    I also don't drink caffeine at all.

    I don't have any of the usual morning problems.

    Not sure if that article is some kind of joke, but if not, it offers some supporting evidence for this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1909903
