    Having a life plan that works, that realistically and with some degree of certainty is taking me to somewhere that I want to go, and in the context of which waking up is an instrumental action furthering my progress along that path.

    Without a good reason to wake up, waking up sucks. A good reason to wake up is a complex thing. A good plan for life is hard to make, but worth it.

    I say this from the perspective of a history of massive depression.

    A good reason to open one’s mouth is that there’s delicious food in front of you. A good reason to wake up is that there’s a plan for the day that brings you closer to the things you want in life.

    If you have a hard time getting up, resolving that starts with making sure whatever thing you’re getting up for actually serves you.

    Going to bed on time. As a friend put it: you sleep at the start of the day, not at the end of the day.

      Or as my stubborn ass thinks about it when I am staying up late: “As soon as I go to bed I’m on the clock…”

    A full glass of water, a shower, and then pulling a shot of espresso. Each step gives the energy for the next.
