    Snoozing is counterproductive. When you hit snooze, you are not getting meaningful rest. You are interrupting your natural sleep cycles and increasing sleep inertia, which is the groggy, disoriented feeling you have after waking up.

    You are also training your brain to ignore your alarm, which makes it harder to wake up consistently over time.

    Set your alarm for the exact time you need to get up and get out of bed when it goes off. Your body and mind will adjust, and you will feel more alert and rested.

    Stop making it harder on yourself. Stop snoozing.

      When I was younger I forced this by putting the clock out of reach, I had to physically get out of bed to turn it off. I don’t need to do it any more but it was a very good habit to get into.
