遠離起床氣
The "Far Away Alarm" Trick
把鬧鐘放遠
The problem with alarm clocks is thatthey come with a snooze button. So while you're in your most groggy state,you're literally being given the option to make that infuriating sound cease toexist.
現在鬧鐘都有小睡按鈕,這是個問題。當你睡意正酣,下意識就會選擇這個功能讓鬧鈴暫停。
Hell, you probably know your wake-uproutine so well that you could hit snooze while your eyes are still shut.
真糟糕,你對自己起床習慣是這么了解,都不需要睜開眼睛就可以開啟小睡功能。
Do yourself a favor and remove thatall-too-easy option. Take it out of the equation. Place your alarm clock so faraway that it necessitates you actually getting out of your bed to stop it.
那就給自己幫個小忙,清除所有快捷鍵,讓它們都不能使用。把你的鬧鐘放到遠一點的地方,遠到需要你從床上起來才能關掉它。
Once you're standing up, you likely won't want to hit snooze, and will want a cup of coffee instead.
一旦你起來了以后,你就不想再去選擇小睡功能了,而是想要一杯咖啡。
