Mental Tools for Greater Living
A lot of folk talk about how they get used to their morning alarm. They have to keep changing where it is, what it sounds like and even when it goes off.
If they keep it the same, it no longer surprises them, so they sleep through it.

Which is why I haven’t changed my alarm in years.

You might not like it.

Want to train them instead?

Whatever it is, here’s how you get rid of it:
