Congratulations, you’ve set the alarm! Now, let’s talk about the snooze button. It’s that big, forgiving button you’ll jab at 7 AM like a zombie trying to turn off a nuclear siren. The snooze is a trap, though—it promises five more minutes of bliss, but delivers a guilt-ridden, half-awake nap where you dream about missing a bus.
I once hit snooze seven times. That’s thirty-five minutes of bad, shallow sleep that I could have used to actually shower. My hair still looked like a startled hedgehog. The trick is to place your clock across the room so you have to get up to turn it off. Then, you’re already standing. That’s 90% of the battle.
