One month is proof!

I will consider this goal done when I get through one whole month where I am early for work every morning.

Some progress

So I started this by setting my alarm clock earlier, but for the first few days I knew it was earlier than I used to get up, so I would simply hit snooze and carry on sleeping. The trick is to actually get up when the alarm clock goes off!
The last 2 days I have put my alarm clock some distance from my bed which will force me to get up in order to turn it off. I also put a note under it saying 'Please get up now!'. So far so good! I have been 10 mins early the last couple of days.

All good so far

Perfect record since I started this goal two weeks ago.
If I can keep this up for 3 months I will mark this goal as complete.

Need to be 20mins earlier every morning

I seem to underestimate how long it takes me to get ready for work. No matter how long I leave to get ready, I always seem to be rushing at the last minute. My boss hasn't said anything yet, but I can tell he hates it when I walk in late.
At the moment, I am about 10 mins late every morning, which isn't too bad, but I know it is being noticed.
I aim to improve this so that I can get in 10 mins early (20 full minutes earlier!).
The simple first step is to set my alarm 20 mins earlier every morning. I have a feeling it won't be this easy, but I will see how it goes.

Get up for work

Wayne's picture

I am constantly late for work and it is beginning to be noticed. I really want to do well at my job and I don't want consistent lateness to hold me back.

I think the main thing that makes me late is that I love to sleep in the mornings. In fact, I only leave myself less than half an hour to get up, showered and out the door each morning. I am going to ensure I get up an hour before work every morning to make sure I have plenty of time to get ready and arrive at work on time.
