How can I get my day off to a good start?

Pressing snooze is a lousy way to start your day. Not only is the sleep bad in little chunks of time, but your not getting up and starting your day either. It really is the worst of all worlds.

I always tell people to set your alarm for the actual time you intend to get out of bed and enjoy every last minute of sleep right up until that point, and then go about your day.

I really think those good mornings are about having better days. The way we start our days really sets the tone for the rest of our hours. So if you start your day with this battle with the snooze button, that will take you through the rest of the day constantly feeling like you're behind. If you get up and do whatever you intended to do, you'll have a much better day.
