It's the same as establishing any other routine. It took discipline the first few times, but once it became a habit, it became automatic.

Also helps to have someone to report to for accountability. Pick a person and you have to tell this person every time you successfully or unsuccessfully dragged yourself out of bed.
Lol, you have strong imagination - I unfortunately don't...

Also it does not seem to be the same as any other routine. I don't have a problem maintaining other routines. This one, about my sleep cycle, I once managed it for a couple months before I fell apart.

I can't really pick any such person, I hardly meet anyone IRL and online it doesn't really matter.

Hmm, so no such pills/similar tricks exist? (I didn't yet find anything when searching)
