There was a time I wouldn't wake up early. I enjoyed sleeping till late morning. At that time I was kind of unable to feel why people who wake up early insist that it is more enjoyable than sleeping till 9 AM.

Then I develop this habit of waking up early. Initially I wasn't very comfortable but now I too can say it is more enjoyable.

I guess you get the point.

When does that kick in? I've been waking up at 6:00am every morning for the past decade and still hate it.

You may not be able to force it.

For years, I slept as late as possible, and hated waking up early. Something changed this summer, wherein I suddenly began waking up super early of my own accord, and then going to bed early to compensate. And I enjoy waking up early now.

I'm still unsure if this will be the new normal, or if it's a phase that will go away as suddenly as it began...

Damn, I had to do a double take on this. 9 AM is super early for me, noon is normal and 2-3 PM is sleeping late. What is appealing and tolerable will not be the same for everyone and sometimes it's not just a matter of getting used to something. It's hard to say in advance.

Exactly the same hours for me. Parent confused me!
