YawnI have a new morning schedule, which means I may be waking up 12 minutes later. So I thought I would share with you, like you care, how that is going for me.

See the picture above, that is me, kinda, in the morning. It is not a picture of me, just some random guy on Flickr. But I am in bed, for the first part of the morning, working.

Today, for example, I got up at 5:25am, before my alarm clock went off. I then went through emails, then through RSS feeds and set up the morning writing budget for Search Engine Land. I did more emails, more feeds, some discussion forums and more work. Then I did the morning bathroom stuff and then came back to the computer to do some more work. I left the house about 6:15am and prayed and then go to work at about 7am.

I honestly like getting to work knowing that I went through email and the feeds. So when I get to work, I check email again, go through the 20 new feed items and then move into my Roundtable research.

So, technically, I am not waking up later, but I feel like I am getting more work done earlier, plus going to my local synagogue in the morning, which saves me driving time.
