An ultra-punctual alarm, the right amount of sleep, and days scheduled down to the minute with hobbies, workout routines, and smart working within the four walls of home: these are some of the traits that define the morning people populating our TikTok feeds. While on the one hand their routines may seem unrealistic or seasoned with a good dose of performativity, on the other hand these wellness insights can prove useful in softening some of the bad habits that shape our everyday lives. Provided, however, that the desire for unrealistic perfection doesn’t end up compromising our mental well-being. Below, we analyze three good habits to gradually adopt in order to improve our daily routine with a boost of energy and good mood.
How to become a morning person: 3 steps to keep in mind
1. Sleep quality
Staying up late is no longer cool, at least according to Gen Z. Even though many of us spend the hours before bed scrolling through social media homepages, quality sleep is the conditio sine qua non for starting the day ahead with the right energy. Rather than being blinded by blue screen light, try to prioritize offline activities that help stimulate relaxation. Among many options, you might focus on solutions such as meditation or mindfulness, accompanied by a steaming cup of chamomile tea or an herbal infusion with relaxing properties. By getting used to this new bedtime routine, you’ll be able to enjoy peaceful and sufficient sleep, regaining the drive needed to tackle the day on the horizon.
2. Operational planning for study and work

Anyone who studies or works knows that good planning can increase productivity ahead of upcoming exams and deadlines. Instead of waking up in the morning and not knowing where to start, dedicate a few minutes in the evening to organizing your desk with notes, laptop, books, or documents needed for your daily work. Of course, after setting everything up and before going to bed, set one or more alarms to alert you when it’s time to wake up.
