Do You Consider Yourself a Morning Person?

October 19, 2007

A recent Gallup poll found that the majority of American adults feel their best, on a typical day, between the hours of 5:00 am and 11:59 am, making them "morning people."

Mornings definitely have their merits, and some people find that it is the best time to schedule and stick to a workout. Others, would never classify themselves as morning people.

How about you...

I get up at 2am every day I dont start work until 5am I am only ten miles from work I need at least 2 hours alone to wake up to even function the rest of the day , I really hate it if my husband stays up that night , then all he wants to do is talk it ruins my whole day I need the peace and quiet in the morning to wake up that is why I get up early , he dosent get it

I am tired of being thought of as lazy because I cannot get up in the morning. I live the same life as everyone else: I work, I have household chores, I exercise, I read, I do freelance work, I watch TV, etc. But I prefer to live that life from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m., rather than 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Ever since I was a little kid I've preferred to stay up late, happily working or playing until 1 or 2 in the morning. A morning person I have never been, nor will I ever be. (And don't tell me I'll change when I have kids...I'm not having any!)

I do better at 7 am if I haven't gone to bed yet than I do if I have to get up at that time after 8 hours of sleep! lol

I hate mornings with a passion. I hit th snooze about ten times before I actually wake up... seriously.

I'm not really a morning person, but I never hit snooze and I hate sleeping in past 10 because I feel like it's a waste of time. I'm not a night owl either so I guess that makes me an afternoon/early evening person.

I'm totally a night owl. I prefer to exercise around 10:00pm and I do my best work at 2am. Too bad I now have a job that requires me to start @ 7:30am- it has messed with my rhythm and now I'm tired all the time.

I am a morning person. I always seem so much more productive during that time of day and that's without breakfast too!

I am surprised so many are morning people! I cannot imagine that. My daughter isn't a morning person either, so trying to get her out the door in the morning... we're like oil and water!

I'm totally a morning person. I wake up easily and I love the sunshine in the morning and the smell of mornings.

I don't want anybody to bother me fo about an hour and a half after I wake up - regardless of what time it is.

designergirl 5 years 31 weeks

I'm not a morning person at all. I don't want to talk to anyone, even hear someone else. I need peace and quiet at that time.

If mornings were to start around 10:00 a.m. I *could* be a morning person. I never, ever, ever want to get up. But once I'm up, I'm up. But I prefer evenings/nights, and we usually live by a different clock, going to bed on average 2:00 - 3:00 a.m. - and very often dinner is 10:00 - 11:00 p.m.

Syako, I am like you. I do not talk in the morning though. I need my time to do whatever it is and be done with it. My boyfriend hates it!

fashionhore 5 years 31 weeks

I press the snooze (I think it has to do with my erratic work-out schedule), but I love mornings. I do most of my errands in the a.m. and take classes early too.

sahayra 5 years 31 weeks

I cannot wake up in the morning. I press snooze at least 3 times!

starofsorrow 5 years 31 weeks

Oh, hell, no, I HATE mornings. I much prefer the nighttimes. =) I feel more energized starting in the late afternoons and stretching into early evenings. =)

i go to bed at about 8:30 to 9pm at least 5 times a week, so I wake up at 5:30am bouncing off the walls dancing!!! =)

I'm a morning person when it gets light early. Winter is hard for me. I also need enough sleep. I wish it were cut and dry. I'm def not a night owl though. I could go to bed at 9 and be happy as a clam.

Never used to be a morning person when I was younger. Now that I am older have a family, 2 dogs and a career I kind of have no choice but to be. The alarm is set for 5am these days. I find that waking up earlier and giving yourself plenty of time in the morning is the key to making it enjoyable.

Jinx 5 years 31 weeks

I'm not a morning person, but my job forces me to be, which sucks.

Chaoticfury 5 years 31 weeks

Definitely a morning person. Up at five with the blender going for a pre-workout fruit smoothie! Plus sunrises and beautiful scenery (my apartment has a garden out, that's about all the scenery I get).

Lovely_1 5 years 31 weeks

I'm really good at getting up, no hitting the snooze, no dragging my ass...once that buzzer or alram goes off, I'm up and ready to get prepared for my day! But, I also like the night too, I like the darkness and the stars and moon. So mayeb I am a monring and night person?!?!?!
