The early morning is a part of the day few things can interrupt – and a period of quiet for making big decisions or having time to yourself
, while morning people are often teased for claiming they can wake up naturally at 6am.I never used to be a morning person. As a teenager, you’re not meant to be. School-aged children are woken by alarm clocks, or parents knocking gingerly on the door , or shaking you awake to get up and dressed . Sundays were spent mostly in my pyjamas if I could, often while my parents hastened outside to get coffee – a reason to leave the house that now, as an adult, I finally understand.
