As others have said, it's simply a matter of discipline and getting used to it. But that doesn't necessarily mean you'll become a morning person. How you wake up and when you wake up are two different things. I'm a morning person in that I wake up easily, but I go to sleep at 1 and wake up at 9.

It helps to establish a routine for going to bed. For example, set a nightly reminder on your phone 15-30 minutes before bedtime that it's time to wind things down. Don't have anything caffeinated after 5 pm or so.

Get a herding dog... seriously mine keeps me on this sleep schedule. She tells me when to go to bed and is my alarm clock in the morning.

For me it was lockdown went to bed early after work out of sheer bordem. Still trying to break out of that routine.

Of course it doesn't help when my dog loves that routine and gets pissed off if not in bed by 8

Requires rote repetition

Adjust the times at which you eat, and make sure those times are consistent. Sleeping habits will follow way more easily if you adjust eating times along with them.

Skip one night of sleep, go to bed at your target hour, pref an hour or two before.

wake up at 4 - 6 am

Go to bed at 9, fall asleep at 10

Just grow older. At 45 you'll start turning into one automatically

What worked for me: marry one of those people

It only works for men.

If women marry a man that sleeps in then he is lazy and needs to be woken up or he's a bum. If a woman marries a man and she sleeps in he's a dickhead if he doesn't let her get her beauty sleep and he's lazy if he goes to bed early.

I did marry one. A decade later, nothing has changed (not for lack of trying). :(

I go through this at the beginning of every school year. All it really takes is about two weeks of being forced to wake up at 6am.
