Comment on Alarm Clock Myth - How to wake up earlyparent

Contrarily, doesn't your social life conflict with your sleep schedule? One is going to suffer. It depends on what you value more. I have nearly the exact schedule as rgbrenner. I've learned to make sleep a priority. If I stay out until 1, I'm still going to wake up at 4:30 and be tired that next day. But I don't go out until 1 everyday.

Also, probably most important, is that I'm nearly 40. I'm more focused on projects than people at this point. I wake up early because I have something I want to work on. When I was younger, I was waking up late because I was staying out late chasing girls.

Well my sleep schedule doesn't require me to wake up at 4:30, I usually don't need to wake up until 7.

Where I live now, public transportation pretty much shuts down after midnight anyways though, so most times I can get home before 1 AM, which will give me a serviceable amount of sleep, at least until a day off.
