Having something on my agenda rather makes me not go to bed :P. But yes, that is indeed a good one that I hadn't thought of. In hindsight I notice I've often woken up more easily because of something cool on my agenda rather than the daily routine, so it might be something to practice.

I've found a similar effect when needing to wake up super early to catch a flight. By laying out what I'm going to wear the night before it's much easier to get started when I'm still half-asleep.

I'll have to try socks next time :)

Fwiw, sleeping with socks on also helps you get a better nights sleep.
