  • Waking up at 5 AM in the mornings is hard. I was never a morning person up until college. Today I talk about why waking up early is changing my life.

    "its not about how much sleep you get" Um that literally killed the entire video for me. Yea waking up early to be productive is one thing. But to sacrifice the sleep you NEED is horrible. You DO NOT want to sleep less just to wake up early. Doesnt matter what, your body needs the 7+ hours of sleep in order to stay healthy. I rather sleep right and wake up at a later/normal time for me than wake up early and feel like death the whole day. You fucked your point in this video dude.

    I spent my first 3 years out of high school working construction. So when I chose to go back to school at 21, I picked the cheapest and closest one. The amount of students that complain about waking up for 8:00am classes is ridiculous. But this is something I’ve exploited since I wake up at 6:00am everyday. While the others are sleeping, I’m studying to get the highest test score in my class and most of the time, I do.
    Basically what I’m trying to say, waking up early will give you an edge most students don’t have. Take advantage of it

      You don't have anymore actual hours to spend on study. Unless you sleep less which has negative impacts. You're just studying in the morning apposed to the afternoon/evening. Don't you think what you're saying is kind of arrogant. The teens straight out of highschool generally have little life / adult skills and make poor time management choices. When you get up has little to do with it.

    Waking up at 5:00 AM is a fantastic habit on its own, but if you do it by only sleeping 5 to 6 hours a night, you are just causing yourself harm. Your brains need 7,5 hours of uninterrupted sleep (not counting the 10-30 minutes you spend trying to fall asleep) EVERY DAY. And let's be honest, nobody goes to sleep regularly at 9PM.
    I've seen lots of my friends try out the super-early-wakeup-meme lifestyle and it goes on great for a couple of days or a week, sometimes even two, until the effects start to accumulate: your immune system weakens (meaning that you start catching all of the flus and bugs that go around), your mood starts to swing, you start having trouble concentrating and remembering things, etc. Basically you just become a less effective version of yourself.
    Just set the alarm to 7AM and stop thinking about some dude on UA-cam that's waking up two hours earlier.

    • @turtles6283

      5-6 Hours of sleep are enough to sustain a healthy lifestyle, just because you read somewhere that you need that amount of sleep does not mean it is true. Infact from what I have gathered sleeping rythm is something really individual, meaning you can even sustain a healthy lifestyle with just powernaps of 30mins or even have 10hrs of sleep, aslong as you can provide the needed nutritions for the time being asleep and your body recovered in the time you have slept.

      @@Afrobol it's a meme lifestyle in so far that it's often statistical outliers, who only need 5-6 hours of sleep, that make those videos. Of course if your social life and willpower allow you to be in bed by 9pm, salute. Whenever I get less than 8 hours of sleep my body wants to catch up within the next few days.
