... you call that a 'trick'? I thought that's what everyone does :)

I've been there though, it was really hard for me to wake up. But I've found my own tricks:

  1. Get a smart lightbulb in your bedroom, program it to turn on dim and slowly get brighter in the morning. Don't get one of those wake-up lights, they're super expensive and weak as hell, it should get as bright as possible.

  2. Get an app/alarm where you have to do something to turn it off, like scan a qr-code in the bathroom. I do math problems, because I could walk around for an hour but if my brain doesn't get active I'll fall right back to sleep ๐Ÿ˜ฃ
