I wake up early.

Sure, for school, but a lot of teenagers do that because they have to. But I mean I wake up a lot earlier than I need to on these days. And the weekends? 7 or 8 o’clock, which isn’t that early, but it is relative to my age. Most people I know aren’t even thinking of getting out of bed until 10, and much later than that isn’t unusual. So why do I get up early? Aristotle said:

It is well to be up before daybreak, for such habits contribute to health, wealth, and wisdom.

Not sure if any of those benifits have been placed upon me, but I do feel a mental boost during the day when I have some quiet time to begin my day. Plus it gives me more time to do work (I feel extremely productive in the early hours) and to have a leisurely breakfast. It works for me!
