Place your alarm clock across the room so you have to get out of bed to turn it off. Choose an alarm sound that is pleasant yet effective at waking you up. Some people benefit from gradually increasing light or sound alarms that mimic a natural sunrise. This strategy prevents the temptation to hit the snooze button and forces you to start moving, which can help you wake up more quickly.
