How to get out of Bed in the Morning

Bribe yourself.

What’s something you want that you can’t get in bed?

Is it coffee? Is it food? Is it a glass of water? Is it your phone because it’s on the other side of the room hopefully?
Is it your dog that needs to go outside to pee?

Is it a cat who wants to be fed?
Is it a child who needs breakfast?
Is it that your mouth feels gross and needs a toothbrush?
Do you stink and you need a shower?

I can’t get out of bed until the thing I want outweighs the comfort and the desire to keep sleeping.

I try to bribe myself. Usually it’s coffee that does the trick.
