3. Rising early is stressful.
The stress hormone cortisol peaks in your blood around 7 am. So if you get up then, you may experience tension. Grab some extra Z's! You'll wake up feeling less like Bert, more like Ernie.
Early to me is 4:00. Seeing as I often wake up between then and 5:30-ish, I beg to differ.
Besides, waking up any later makes me feel like I've wasted useful hours of day, and that's what gets me irritated.
