A weekday/weekend schedule difference would also be helpful, but you might want to push the total adaptation time to 45 days to adjust for the lack of consistency. -Scott Marina,

What do you do on weekends? Am I the only one that sleeps a lot later on weekends? I could never wake up so early after going to bed at 3 o'clock in the morning... how did you managed your social life in those 30 days?

Any thoughts about why you're shifting back way before morning? Jake,

Great suggestions! 3am is an incredibly early wake-up time. Any thoughts about why you’re shifting back way before morning?

I did all thirty days in a row waking up at 5 am, and decided I liked the early morning so much that I would push the time back. I'm currently going to bed at 8 pm and waking up at 3 am. I get up, shower, meditate for an hour, do my morning exercise routine, do homework, and then head for school. ITS AMAZING. I have a timer set to the lights in my room, so at exactly 3 am, all my lights turn on and I wake up. Its not nearly as harsh and annoying as an alarm clock. I have very little trouble getting out of bed. I have two cardinal rules I follow: 1. NEVER hit the snooze and 2. Just stand up. Follow those and you'll have a lot less problems.
