Become A Morning Person in 7 Easy Steps

简单七条成为早起的人

I noticed virtually all the Productivity posts on here are tips about how to do mornings. Here are mine!

我发现，几乎所有关于效率的文章，都关注于如何在早晨处理事物。下面是我的做法。

1. Drink lots of water. It is hard to sleep when you are thirsty. Same for hunger and food.

   大量喝水。当口渴时，你很难睡着，饿的时候也是如此。

2. Give up on work once it gets dark out. Tell yourself you can do everything tomorrow. Go to bed.

   一旦天黑就停止工作。告诉自己，你可以在明天早上处理所有事情。先睡觉吧。

3. When you next wake up, immediately start worrying about something. Ideally it’s something objectively serious, but something trivial that you blow out of proportion works too. Does someone hate you? Did you make a mistake in your past? Is there something you are going to fail at in the future? Is there a failure you haven’t yet acknowledged even though the circumstances that make failure inevitable have already come to pass? Does no one love you? The people who love you — do they really love you? Are bad things happening in your life the circumstances of which are beyond your control? Is climate change happening? I’ll answer that for you, it is? Allow the inevitability of death and the unstoppable march of time to press in on all sides of your head and body until it feels like you’ve been vacuum-sealed inside a block of concrete. Fixate on this feeling and wait until it consumes your entire consciousness and millions of questions boil over in your mind and you feel so strangled that if you don’t move you will die, such that you don’t even notice you’re sitting bolt upright in bed, getting out of bed, making the bed. It’s good if this happens at 7AM, but it’s best if it happens at 3 or 4AM so you can really get a jump on your day.

   当你在第二天早上醒来时，立即开始关注某些事情。最好是一些客观严肃的事情，但也可以是一些琐碎的事情。有人恨你吗？你是否犯了什么错误？有没有事情将来会失败？有没有你尚未意识到但已经不可避免的错误？难道没有人爱你吗？那些爱你的人是真的爱你吗？你的生活中有什么糟糕的事情是正在发生而你却无法改变的？气候变化是否正在发生？这些问题都需要你回答，不是吗？无法逃脱的死亡和无法停止的时间流逝，压在你的头上和身体让，就像置身于一块真空的混凝土中。排空你的意识，专注于这种感觉，让无数问题充斥你的脑海，然后你就会感觉到，再不行动起来，就会窒息而死，你甚至不会注意到你正在起身、下床、整理床铺。这种情况最好是在早上 7 点进行，如果发生凌晨 3、4 点，你会一整天都活力充沛。

4. Do not address any of the things you were worried about. Make plans to address them, maybe do them a little bit, but not too much. Do not, under any circumstances, reach a point of completion or emotional closure.

   不要被你担心的事情所困扰。制定计划来解决这些问题，每次做一点点，不需要做的太多。罗马不是一天建成的，不要妄想着一步到位。

5. Sit at your desk and let the exhaustion wash over you. You are too tired to execute these plans today. Revisit the plan and tweak it, add a few more to-dos. Break the small tasks into smaller pieces, and assign them all to yourself for tomorrow.

   坐在桌旁，让疲惫的感觉笼罩你。你已经太累了，今天已经无法执行计划了。重温并调整计划，添加一些待办事项。把小任务分成更小的任务，作为你明天的任务。

6. Go to bed early.

   早点睡觉。

7. Repeat.

   日复一日的重复以上做法。
