I agree with the waking up early part. I even went through a period where I was getting up at 6 to go to the gym which did help wake me up and kept me feeling (mostly) energised throughout the day. I must say though this HAS to also be coupled with going to sleep at a decent time otherwise the whole thing is counterproductive.I find setting alarms on my phone for very basic small things like eating, reading, sleeping etc. means you can just zone out into whatever task you're doing and not worry about the time. This also means you're very regimented and stick to a good routine if you do it consistently.EDIT: also an ice cold pint of water (with cucumber and lemon if you’re feeling particularly extra) first thing in the morning will make you feel 100x better throughout the day than a coffee
