以下是如何找出你的睡眠需求：統(tǒng)計好一周（包括周末）之內(nèi)的睡眠總時間。

Divide that number by seven to calculate your nightly need. Think about a time you’ve been on vacation or of a night you felt particularly rested — how much sleep did you get??
將這個數(shù)字除以七，計算出你每晚的需要。想想你曾經(jīng)在度假時的晚上，或者你感到特別的休息時，你睡了多久？

Once you have that number, count backwards from the time you want to get up and plan to go to bed at that new hour.
一旦你計算出這個數(shù)字，從你想起床的時間開始倒數(shù)，并在新計劃好的時間上床睡覺。

2. Identify Your Stay-Awake Triggers

3. Create A Morning To-Do List
羅列好早起事宜

Another good habit is to think about what you want to accomplish in the morning.?
另一個好習慣是想好你早上要完成什么。

“Having a morning goal is the best motivation,” said McKey.?

She recommends writing three tasks you have to do the next day.?

獎勵自己

Find a little bit of that magical motivation: Think of something you want to do, but can never find the time to do, whether it’s playing with your cat, catching up with a friend or enjoying a home-cooked breakfast.?
找到一點不可思議的動機：想想你想做，但永遠找不到時間去做的事情，比如逗你的貓，見一個朋友或享受家人自制的早餐。

McKey’s own reward is to see the sunrise, which is why she jogs early in the morning.

5. Exercise
鍛煉

“People who exercise tend to sleep better than those who don’t,” said Vanderkamp.?
Vanderkamp說道：“鍛煉的人往往比那些不鍛煉的人睡眠質(zhì)量高”。

Indeed, studies have shown a strong correlation to a better quality of sleep for people who work out at least 10 minutes a day.?

By working out, your body releases serotonin and endorphins.
通過鍛煉，你的身體釋放血清素和內(nèi)啡肽。

6. Ask Yourself, ‘Why Do You Want To Do This?’
捫心自問，“你為什么要這樣做？”

It can be difficult to develop new habits on demand, even if you know the habit is positive and useful.?
即使知道習慣是積極的和有用的，你也很難養(yǎng)成新的習慣。

“If someone chooses to develop morning-person habits by their own will — not because a spouse or friend said so — it will be easier to do,” said McKey.?
McKey 說道：“如果不是因為配偶或朋友這樣說而選擇早起，那么這個習慣將是很容易養(yǎng)成的”。

Think about how becoming a morning person can make your life better.?
想想如何成為一個早起的人能讓你的生活更美好。

For most people, just knowing that they’re most productive in the morning is a big incentive.
對大多數(shù)人來說，只知道早上工作對他們最有效率是一個很大的激勵。
