1. Stare into the sun and scream

2. Hot chocolate does the job.

3. Quick cold-ish shower.

   I have me real shower at night but on work days I roll out of bed and jump straight into the shower for a few minutes and that’s enough to wake me up. When I get out I’m awake, feel fresh, and ready to face another day lol.

4. Get out of bed.

5. Yoga and qigong.

6. Work out and run as soon as I get up. Then I eat breakfast after my workout and run

7. I bike 7km to work. Wakes me up like nothing else.

8. I work out at the gym

9. Shower and coffee. If I’m extra tired sometimes I’ll wrestle a shark for extra morning boost

10. Wake up, go lift, cold shower.

11. Coffee ☕

12. A decent breakfast and a couple cups of coffee every morning

13. workout

14. Workout.

15. Cold Shower.

16. I try not to. It hurts.

17. Normally its a left paw to the face 3 times then 5 minutes of being licked. My little blind lab makes sure I am fully away and ready to put her outside as soon as my alarm goes off.

18. Eat a handful or more leafy greens

19. Wake up, drink water. Go.

20. Chug a cold water. 15 minute run with the dog. Cold shower

21. A three mile walk. Every day, whether I really want to or not.

22. I get up at the last possible second and then rush around stressed, trying not to be late for work

23. Don’t hit snooze, the moment my alarm goes up I get up with a sense of purpose, I then try to keep that mindset throughout my entire day. Sometimes it works, others it doesn’t.

24. I start w/ 22 oz of cold water from the fridge & a cool shower then coffee.

25. Kill fiddy men.

26. Sit on the side of my bad, sigh, and stare at the wall for a few minutes.

27. My toddler wakes me up by standing over me like the grim reaper and when I wake up either alive and it’s time to start the day or im dead and I get to sleep in

28. I don’t. My blood takes a while to get pumping

29. Shower and masturbate whilst I shower.

30. I have a tea first thing and then get on the treadmill for a bit and walk while watching a show or movie. Getting up and getting active first thing really helps me get motivated for the day.

31. I chew 5 gum

32. Have sex with my wife

33. 5 am in the gym.

    15 minutes on the treadmill

35. While awake and with my eyes open my brain is in a constant, mid-level state of fight-or-flight, so…wake up.

36. I slap myself in the face

37. Wake up when you need to. No thought.

38. Death metal and a banana usually do the trick

39. Wake-up, take a shit, get out of bed. In that order.

40. Coffee

42. I eat 3 to 4 bananas every morning. I guess it’s my substitution to the coffee. The carbs get me going.

43. Cofee

44. It takes me a few attempts to get out of bed, so I count them as 4- 5 sit-ups.
