The Night Before
Pick out your outfit for the next day. This way you don't waste any time and you feel more prepared when you roll out of bed to start a fresh new day.
Set your alarm. Try and set it from 6:00 to 7:00, so that you can have a nice morning and have time to prepare your own breakfast.
Go to bed early. This could mean to sleep at 8:00 PM or to sleep at 9:00 PM. It depends on how much sleep you need and want time you want to wake. Try to get a lot of sleep. At the least get 6 hours.
Make a to-do list for the next day. This is optional, but it can help you feel organized and so you don't feel overwhelmed the next day.
In the Morning
Wake up. This is where your day begins, don't blow it. Turn your alarm off and stretch a bit. Force yourself to get up. If you really can't, give yourself 5 minutes. Remember to reset your alarm so that you actually wake up in five minutes and not in 2 hours!
Use the toilet. Walk to the bathroom and use the toilet. You still probably feel super tired and groggy.
Splash your face with cold water. This shocks you, helping you stay awake.
Drink some ice water. This also wakes you up.
Take a shower. This step is optional. Some people choose to shower in the afternoon or at night. However, a cold shower in the morning can wake you up.
Get dressed. Put on the outfit that you chose the night before.
Wash and moisturize your face. Use a gentle cleanser or facial soap. Use a facial moisturizer, not lotion.
Do your hair. There are plenty of options to choose from. You can choose a simple style for a casual day or a fancier one if you plan to go out.
Eat breakfast. This is the most important meal of the day. Make it a healthy, balanced breakfast.
Brush your teeth. You could use a minty fresh toothpaste to help wake you up even more.
Now you are ready to tackle your big day! You can follow your to-do list or go on without one.
