For some people, the morning is the best part of the day. Already at five in the morning, they briskly get out of bed, go for a run, do exercises, prepare smoothies, manage to read 20 pages of a book, and go to the office in high spirits. For others, the hours of awakening are torment and constant bargaining with themselves. They wake up broken and tired, constantly switch the alarm clock, until the last moment they cannot get out of bed. The main thing is to exclude chronic fatigue if you belong to the second type of people.
