A Disciplined Life: By Corinne

Nobody believes I wake up at three. I woke up at 7:00 AM ish until I was 10, then 5:30 AM until I was 14, and I have been getting up at 3:00 AM for the last three months.

When I was 10 and started waking up earlier than most people. I had the typical hatred towards waking up early, but I eventually learned how to like waking up. I set an alarm. I made it easier by getting a ringtone app. I made my wake up alarm fun, so that way I could look forward to it.


I like bragging about waking up early. I read and heard about how waking up at the same time every day is beneficial, so while everyone else I know sleeps in on weekends, holidays, moon days, and breaks, I prefer to wake up at my usual time. I get to yoga at about 5:00 AM, so why, you may ask, do I get up at 3:00 AM? I function best in the morning, when everyone else is asleep, quiet, and not bothering me. This means that I can pray, read the bible, go for run, do my homework, and prepare for the chaos of the day at 3:00. Getting up at 3:00 is fun. I naturally wake up at 3:00 AM. whether or not my alarm goes off, or was set in the first place. When I am on vacation, at a sleepaway camp, or sleeping over at a friends house, I don’t set the alarm but sit there awake from 3:00 AM, until everyone else wakes up. Is waking up early difficult or you? Maybe a yoga practice would work in your routine.
