I personally think you can't easily force your own body clock into running against its natural state.

In your case, you struggle to get up earlier and motivated, so accept what you feel is natural to you and this will allow yourself to be more productive as you aren't wasting energy and will-power trying to be a morning person. I'd assume after a lot of training, its possible to change and for it to come naturally, but why bother?

I am useless at getting up early, and mornings are a productivity wasteland for me if I'm forced to get up so this is what I do.

I sleep when I'm tired, which is often around 3 to 4amish,  and I wake up around 11ish, at which time I eat, read the papers and don't even attempt to do any work unless I feel really motivated to do some. My best hours for working are 10pm to about 4am. As for eating. I eat when I feel hungry and breakfast is always my biggest meal. I naturally seem to eat very little later on.

So, if you need to wake early for work or other commitments then keep training yourself using repitition and consistancy and I'm sure you will get the place you want to be, but if its not so critical, try simply listening to your own body.

Sleep when you're tired and eat when you're hungry!


This has something mostly to do with one's body clock.

It is a scientific fact that the human adult body needs at least 7-9 hours of sleep in order to function well the next day and immediately feel refreshed after waking up. If one have had a good sleep, for sure that person will have no trouble getting out of bed. 

The problem however is not the waking up but when a person goes to sleep. Often times, teenagers and young adults have inconsistent sleeping schedules. They just sleep whenever they want or  when their body feels like resting. 

This is the major reason that leads to people having trouble getting out of bed and can be easily solved by having a stable and consistent sleeping schedule, allowing one to get a good amount of sleep.
