I have the same problem, as  I am NOT a morning person.\n\nHowever, I  used to do this on a regular basis, but got out of the habit when my walking buddy moved away.  So, my suggestion to you is to find a friend and ask him or her to meet you at your walking place each morning.\n\nOn another note, when I was doing this regularly, I felt soooo much better, so that was a real motivating factor.\n\nNow . . . I just have to start up again.  (Maybe just knowing that you're working on this as well will help me get motivated.)  Best wishes to you.

Why lie? \n\nTraffic is a real reason for being late. \n\nOn the other hand, (looking at it from the company's point of view) \n\nYou would have left extra early to give yourself time in case there was traffic. Showing up late for an interview is bad bad bad. Not a great first impression you want to make to potential employers.\n\nThere is no excuse.

Welcome to the real world. All of us have a hard time waking up early in the morning. Some have a harder time than others. It takes discipline and self control to wake yourself up.

listen here persian_pig_biatch...if I am late to work it will be because of this darn silly question & your funny name...\nPertaining to your question=once in the morning(soon as I wake) & once at night(as I lie to sleep)...this has now become a ritual for me...\nI hope this tickled your fancy and/or was helpful for you...\nnow leave me alone...

Force yourself to wake up too early. Stay awake all day until bedtime, no power naps. I had the same problem for about a month a couple weeks ago, turns out it was the fan I had in my window. It's one of those kinds you leave on and it automatically turns on and off according to tempature. As soon as I turned that thing off I slept like a baby. Maybe something is distracting you from sleeping better as well. Just a thought...

I need more sleep then I normally get\n\nI go to bed usually around 11 or so, the days I work I get up between 5:20 - 5:30, leave by 6am.\n\nDays I don't work my son gets me up around 7.

I think you're getting UP too late.  \n\nIf you need 6 hrs. sleep, you're body won't start thinking about sleep until 18 hrs. after you last woke up (8:30AM).  Try getting up at a more normal time...say 6 or 6:30AM.  You could use the extra AM time to exercise (good for the body) or answer a few YA questions (good for the mind) or prepare for your workday (good for the career).\n\nI guarantee you that after a few days of this forced regimen you'll be ready for sleep by 11PM or so.

i have the same disorder. the only way to fix this is by altering your biological clock. here are some of the practices i do to alter my biological clock so that i may sleep early:\n\n1) since i'm a late sleeper (i usually sleep at around 3 or 4am), i don't sleep at all for one day (usually on a weekend), then on the following day, i'm so exhausted that i end up sleeping really early like 7 or 8pm.\n\n2) i take my evening shower early... around 6pm right before dinner. that way i'm refreshed and relaxed. i eat a hearty dinner, which in turn adds to my overall contentment, making me prone to early drowsiness.\n\n3) i go to a masseuse late in the afternoon... have a nice 1 hour swedish massage, then i head home all relaxed. i have dinner, watch a few TV, check my emails, head for bed, and then rest my head.

No.  I set my clocks 10 minutes slow.\n\nI like to be fashionably late.

I used to have a similar problem in that I was always tired!\n\nChances are, you may have something lacking in your diet, or you may be suffering from the opposite of insomnia - hypersomnia. \n\nThe way I beat it was that I exercised regularly, normally in the morning or afternoon (never at night), I had a hearty breakfast and I tried to avoid catnapping. Keeping active is quite important because if you're stationary all day sitting at a computer or whatnot, you do feel tired. Even if it is taking the stairs instead of the escalator, it makes the difference. Exercise just makes you much wider awake.

Hey, here I am. The latest I wake up is around 5:00 am. Can't sleep past that. Been in that habit for over 30 years. I had to wake up for work every day, the same time year after year, and can't get out of the habit. Even if I stay up till midnight or later, I am still up around the same time. Bummer, huh?

The only time I would have a problem with you is if somebody complaints about you or I thought somebody may have complaints that is not said. If the official starting time is 7 and if nobody else but you are late, it's hard to say it's okay to be late because you are doing a good job. Because if somebody else who are not doing good jobs start coming in late, I have to say to him it's not okay for him because his job is not as good. Then, I have to come up with whole new rules of what you have to do in order to come in late. So, as long as everybody is cool about your coming late, I have no problem.

It really is just a disipline and habit thing.\n\nAll of us could be poor morning people if we let it slip.\n\nIts probably a question of need. You've not been in trouble for being late so getting away with it subconsiously vindicates your decision to stay in bed.\n\nTry putting the alarm clock somewhere where you have to get out of bed to turn it off, make it an annoying buzzer rather than the radio.\n\nBecasue you are anxious about it, you probably see it as a real chore and resent getting up on time. This makes it harder for you. Can you plan to do something in the morning that you look  forward to ? If you like the news, get up and watch it, or go and buy a paper, get outside for 5 minutes, even if its just standing by the back door while yo uhave your coffee.\n\nIf you are fine throughout the rest of the day, then getting up and seeing the daylight you are wasting will help you get up earlier on other days.\n\nCreate an enjoyable need to get up.\n\nIts easy for me, we've got a farm full of alarm clocks that need feeding !\n\nTiredness, hangover or illness just don't come into it for me, its because i have a need to get up regardless of how i feel. So i don't resent it, I have to be happy doing work at 5AM every morning for the animals sake, you should try to create that need.

You don't say how long you've been at the job you mentioned, but a change in sleep pattern is normal when we adjust the time of day we sleep.  Sometimes it can take a couple of months to get used to a new schedule.  Try setting an alarm and getting up at a certain time (say 8-9 hours) each day after you work.  Eventually you'll establish a pattern, and not feel so dragged out.

Possible causes\n1) You are probably stress out\n2) You are not getting enough sleep\n3) You do not have enough nutrition in your body.\n4) It can be genetics.

It is very, very difficult to get everything done in the time that we have been alloted to do so, which is typically 8 hours.\n\nSo with that said, for me personally......I work several additional hours everyday for many weeks and sometimes that is just to stay ahead of the game, still doesn't mean I am getting everything done. There is still lots of follow up on things.\n\nI have to prioritize my work the night before for the next day and sometimes that doesn't work, because the next day might present fires that need immediate attention, which means my night before prioritizing just went out the window.\n\nAfter fighting the struggle day after day, sometimes I just say to myself, "self, you are only one person and you can only do so much and what you do not do today/night, will be sitting right here, waiting for you tomorrow." With that said.....I pack up my stuff and go home and try to tackle it all over again and then some, the next day.
