Like a lot of well-meaning advice, this did not work for me. Getting up at 5am or 6am for a few weeks just means I feel tired all the time for a few weeks, and it just takes me a couple days to (gratefully) revert back to the night-owl schedule my body wants to keep.
The scientific evidence keeps showing that there are many people who are more alert at night, but of course morning people and morning converts seem to think that since waking up early works fine for them it must work fine for everyone.

Also I 100% would not have done it without my partner, I needed someone to drag me along. I do agree that the prevailing "earlier === better" mindset is harmful and should go away.
