5 Reasons Why It’s Good To Get Up Early

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Cincinnati chapter.

 

The morning sunrise is an image we’ve probably only captured once or twice in our lives, and even then, it was probably because we stayed up too late. Apart from pulling the typical all-nighters, there are multiple reasons why it’s great to get up early in the morning.

 

1.  A workout in the morning is refreshing

Whether it’s a jog around campus or some hot yoga, an early workout will jumpstart your morning.  You’ll be sure to have more energy throughout the day too!

2.  You won’t miss out on opportunities

As fun as sleeping until noon is, the day is ticking by without your consent.  Sleeping all day isn’t going to help you chase your dreams, and those once in a lifetime opportunities aren’t going to just knock on your door.

3.  You’ll feel better

Sometimes getting too much sleep can feel just as bad as not enough sleep.  The happy medium is where it’s at.

4.  You can beat the traffic

Oversleeping can surely put you in the morning rush and/or make you late for class.  Getting up early can put you ahead of the game and get you to your destination on time.

5.  You’ll be stress free

No need to stress about getting to places on time or having enough time to get ready if you decide to get up early!

The world is a beautiful place, so don’t sleep all day and miss out on all it has to offer!
