Waking up at 5AM is changing my life 

This video is my discipline recharge. I always come back to this. I appreciate this video so much!

When he said "My wife Sara" I was like... wut? I thought he was like 15

This guy is upset about watching RU-vid for 2 hours a day? Those are rookie numbers

Step 1: Have a house in a rainforest to admire when you wake up

Going to bed at 5AM is changing my life

Watching this video at 5:21 am baby! ... cause I stayed up all night.

i'd wake up at 5 am too if i lived in a jungle to hear all those sounds lol

I woke up 5am today. It feels terrific. I noticed this video few months ago never try to watch it. It felt intimidating since I wake up like 12pm 2pm afternoon even like 5pm sometimes. I always feel exhausted terrified of things. My life was practically ruined in some way. Today I woke up at 5am and I searched lots of things related my project. I felt so free and potential that are not found yet. I got out and walk on snow that not cleaned by city cleaner yet. 6 hours later, still 11am. This is crazy. Love it.

Ok so I woke at 5:30 am and I felt like I was changing my life! Then I went back to sleep.

I'm a simple man. I see a Frodo on the thumbnail - i click

“It was like over 2hrs!” Me on my 5th hr on RU-vid: WoOoowzies my guy...

And here I am, adding 9:16 minutes to my youtube activity 😔

Going to sleep at 5am has ruined my life

If I lived in that place he'll yeah I'd wake up at 5 am

Mate this video has literally helped me so much. I started to wake up at 5AM last week and I am slowly changing how I do things. The first day was hard, and very very difficult to actually get up. But for the first time in 2 years I have seen the sun rise before I woke up which is amazing. Thank you so much for this video. Hope everything is going to plan for you.

Most of these comments aren’t taking this seriously when this is actually real shit that can improve your life for the better 🤷🏽‍♂️.

I remember not having my phone for a week, and i slept so much better that week. I Even started reading books, which is unheard of. Now i got my phone and im watching this at 5 AM without any sleep.

You have to wake up at 5 AM if you wanna deliver the ring to Mordor in time.

I am just here to tell you that your movie literally changed my life. I have been waking up at 5AM since I watched it, almost 2 years now. I even started to run. Of course, there were periods when I didn't practice waking up early or running, mostly because of school. However, I always come back to it. So I want to thank you because that habit not only changed my routine but also made me feel better about myself.

RU-vid recommended a video that is convincing me to stop watching RU-vid... Interesting

It’s interesting how our generation has to figure out how to deal with these new problems. It’s like everyone was handed a 50lbs backpack and you just told me how to take it off. I’ve been here running around with a 50lbs backpack like an idiot.

a youtube video telling us to stop watching youtube videos

As a Muslim, we've 5 prayers per day, each prayer takes around 5 minutes, the first prayer is the earliest one, for example for now it is at 5:00 am, the time of prayer is changeable over the year, because of the daylight difference, day is longer in summer than in winter. So technically a conservative Muslim wakes up early all the days of his life. Peace and love to all, it's just something from our culture that I wanted to share

If he keeps doing rejuvenating stuff, he is going to disappear.

*Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.*

Well it’s not hard to wake up surrounded by that beauty.

This guy is freaking out over 2 hours of YT in a day lol I watch for like 5+ hours often

I love how everyone is competing for how long they spend on their phones. Like guys, that’s not smth to be proud of...

I go to bed at 5am some nights

Been doing this for 3 days now and I can fly.

Oh my gosh thank you Jordan for sharing this with all of us. I relate 100% to what you are describing, and honestly last night I hit rock bottom because ever since 5 years ago, I have felt like there was no way out of my electronics addiction. I honestly felt so hopeless, and for the first time ever, I realized that I could not continue this lifestyle for even one more day. I was very unsure of what I could do to change my lifestyle, but I knew I had do to something, I just didn't know what. So as I fell asleep feeling really desperate, all I could do was pray to God and ask Him for help. But then today I was watching some messyges videos (which were all awesome btw) and then I happened to come across your channel. Then I saw this video and I heard God say "This is what you need to do. This is your answer. This is how you will be able to change your life for the better." Can I get an AMEN, because God heard my prayer and answered me through this video!!!! Thank you for making this video Jordan, I am so excited to (as of today) start improving my lifestyle! God bless you, Sarah and the rest of your family :)

I wonder if the view count goes up every time I rewatch this video... I've watched it at least half a dozen times. Really motivating to get up early. Thanks, Jordan!

That looks like heaven you're staying at😂

Who else is watching this at after midnight

Frodo Baggins is that you?

One habit that has been impacting my life since I started college was waking up earlier. It was difficult to start at 7AM, but now i work back to 5AM and 6AM during the week. This gives me at least 2 hours before my first class, so I am awake, aware of my surroundings, and have already had 1.) morning devotional, 2.) read from two different books (one intellectual and the other more towards self-improvement) 3.) Written prayer/plan for the day as well as progress (optional) and 4.) Had my tea and/or coffee Waking up early can be intimidating at times as one might be confronted with "why am I doing this" when you might not have a lot of work due, but he struck it home in the video that what we tend to do at night (my brain tends to stop functioning), is way less useful than what we can do fresh in the morning. Loved the video and I am going to start this challenge of a. charging the phone in another room, b. phone off at 9PM, bedtime at 10PM, and phone off until 8AM. Can't wait to see the results!

2hrs on RU-vid in a day?... That's weak 😂😂😂

People are talking about “I THOUGHT HE WAS 15” but if he was 15 he wouldn’t think 2 hours of RU-vid is SOO much.

Thanks man .ive been waking up at 4am its been a month and i really needed this video i guess i got whatever i needed including my phone problem .... You are doing an amazing work i really appreciate it .

Beautiful Message your spreading! :) I started to do it because my dad told me it would change everything and it did! Life is just better!

Wife? Wow i thought u were 15 years old.

This couldn't have come at a better time... truly a God-send. I was just laying on my bed close to panic attack an hour and a half ago because the feeling I was wasting my life was overwhelming me. This is EXACTLY what I need to do (except maybe not wake up at 5). :) Thank you so much.

Just watched this video for the first time. And Wow! It was such an answer to prayer for me! Lately with the covid quarintine and everything I have been feeling really addicted to my phone and go to bed realllyyy late. Like I'm wasting this cool opportunity that quarintine has given, of being at home and having free time. It's like the day just disappears. For a long while my goal has been to get up at 4:30 or 5, but it just never happens. I've tried to break it the past few weeks, but haven't known how. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO!!!! It was EXACTLY the help I needed!! It was so helpful for me to hear your "plan of attack" for breaking phone addiction habits! I wrote down how you're doing it because I think it's super effective! Starting it tonight! Thank you for the tips and motivation, Jordan!

This is so relatable.. I love waking up to 5 or 6am... It is a part of the day that not everyone gets to see, it feels more productive and I'm doing things I never expected me to complete or even try

"I did the math, and it was like over two hours!" lol w. Those are rookie numbers xD

I sleep at 5am...

Thank you sir. You’re changing lives.

Watching this at 4:50 am (with no sleep) thinking "he is going to wake up in 10 minutes" and I haven't slept😂

if i lived in an area like that, i don't think id ever look at my phone. holy shit thats beautiful and the noises are so relaxing yet so untamed and that makes it even more beautiful.

you have officially inspired me

the music and soft spoken tone is what makes this video excellent

This is so legit! I started waking up at 5 and avoiding my phone about a month ago so that I can be productive before my baby wakes up and I get everything you hit on in this video!

and I'm here at night watching RU-vid videos lol

Good job Frodo, early birds get to Mordor the quickest.

I’m watching this at 2:17 a.m 🙂👌

This video is to me like the video you referenced....seriously, you’ve changed my life man. Thanks.

I’m not sure how I came across this, but this is exactly the video I needed right now.

Shit man... this is too close to home, typically I’m still up from the night before watching RU-vid when the birds start chirping

Thank you and we'll done. I started with the early hours weeks ago and lost the moment, keeping in mind I still want but struggled to get back there. I will now do it again. Eaperrhe not looking at the phone first things and heading outside. Making my bed putting my gown on and chilling outside with coffee watching the morning come alive is great. You're right on so many levels of this pody. Thank you.

Thanks so much jordan! You gave me motivation to make my sleep schedule better

3 hours? anyone else be on youtube the whole day 😂😂

Sees video at 1:30 am, good job.

Quality video from a really good speaker for the topic. Thank you Jordan for the inspo!

4 years ago till now 2022 and I'm still watching this great video once in while, it's return me back on the track. THANK U 🌹

I get up at 5am for work and its changed my life... not in a positive way though lol

This dude isn’t lying. If you wake up at 5am and are incredibly tired, just go through the 5-10 minutes of pain to go make yourself a coffee, because after that 5-10 minutes, the rest of your day will be 10x better

JOCKO!!!! Love this man! He has given me so much motivation. get it done Jordan. It's incredible. Been doing this for a year, it has amazing results!

A quiet slow morning when no one else is awake ... ahhh ... the best thing ever. 4:30am ... is my gift to me. And ... it makes me go to sleep so easy ... and then it's the best sleep. ... the sweetest gift to myself.

I went to bed at 5am last night. Too much fortnite

This has opened my eyes to reality. Honestly it’s 12:30 am rn watching this and now I feel like an idiot.

I really needed this, thank you ❤️

i have been facing the same issues as urs, phone addiction, sleeping late, waking u late, not getting anything done in the day, feeling moody unhappy , hating myself. and i hv been trying to wake up earlier and do exercise, yoga and meditation and it is really changing my life.

I wouldn't need a phone if my house was that dope

Watching this at 2am, planning to wake up at 11

Thank for this video! This is something I’ve been wanting to try for a while now but I’ve always been terrible at walking up in the morning. During last summer my sleeping schedule got so out of hand, I was going to bed at 5am-7am and walking up at 4pm-6pm, at this point I basically became nocturnal 😂 Even now I’m back in college I often wake up 20-30 minutes before having to leave and I feel so tired and often find myself being really moody with my family because of my lack of sleep. I can never focus on my studies and I very rarely eat a nutritional breakfast (which probably doesn’t help with being anaemic either). I really want to make this change and this video has now made me even more excited to become a morning person after being a night owl for so many years. Thank you! ☺️💕

Oh my gosh thank you so so much for this you have no idea how much it’s helped

I do this every day its called having a job.

*video ends* ......Alexa! Set an alarm for 5am....... every goddamn day.

I don't get enough sleep thats why I'm always was cranky and have mood swings. I feel like your right being on your phone is slowly destroying us. Thanks for the tips man. I appreciate this video so much.

What I appreciated the most in this video is his honesty ..... Thanks for sharing your experience.....

To wake up early, you have to go to bed early The problem is there

Great video and good challenge for myself, thanks man

Great video Jordan! Loved it brotha

Thanks for this Jordan! I needed it right now. I've been going to bed at like 11 or 12 and getting up late, and it sets a bad tone for the rest of my day. I'm going to try to change that and set consistent times to go to bed and get up!

I really resonate with this. This video actually reminded me to order an alarm clock so I don't wake up to my phone in the morning. I 100% agree it's so much better to wake up without scrolling through social media. A wise man once said, "Changing your triggers is the key to changing your habits."

Did he just say he has a WIFE? Bruh i thought he was like 15

When he said that he’s been watching over two hours, I lost it cus sometimes I’m on my phone for about 6 hours

I'm from the Caribbean, waking up at 5 am was never a choice, chores to do and preperation for school and I had to take my piggy out to graze,but it was worth it, keep it up

I havent slept in 2 days... I think im doing this wrong.

First video I’ve watched by you, I never comment but I really enjoyed this video. Killin it man.

I love this video! It is really an eye-opener. Thank you for sharing this! I used to do a "social media fast". I spent a week without social media, and I realized how much time I've been wasting when I could do other things. Now I just try to be moderate in my use of social media. There was also a time that I gave up my smart phone and switched back to a regular basic phone. We really do need to "unplug" once in a while.

this video is really valuable bc he's mainly talking how to wake up at 5 am and what makes it easier, and how to change a very bad habit of looking at your phone for hours wasting your time instead of just saying basic stuff like just do it, doesn't matter how much sleep u get and what you do before going to sleep, wake up at 5 am and see how it changes your life. from me, as i haven't finished watching this video yet (so i dunno if he's gonna say that too), i'd recommend you reading before u go to sleep instead of watching stuff on your phone or computer - it rlly makes me sleep much better and also i tend to wake up earlier when i read before going to sleep. doesn't have to work the same for you but it's worth to try.

This video was exactly the kind of push I needed. I’m starting tonight

For those who say that they don't know what to do if they do not like reading books here are some ideas: Practise a hobby-skill Workout Take a shower And the most important, make your favourite drink go in your balcony and relax by watcing the sun rise (you will also start to understand how beautiful the world is) ...sorry for my bad english...

Thank you!!!! Soo much! I have noticed for the past 3 years ive been in school zero hours of sleep. That has lead to increased anxiety, chest pains, forgetfulness, tired and i get angry because my day goes by soo fast! I have gone to bed at 8:45 pm and i wake up at 6am. Let me tell you what a difference to my body, soul, and mind

You really have changed many ppls life u shld be proud of yourself

This was a recommended video for me & now I’m thinking it might be for a reason...

I uesed to get up at 5am when I was 13 and open my window and just read a book. I loved it! I will try to do that again :)

I looked at my history, 45 hours a week of RU-vid. but a lot of it is listening to Jordan Peterson and music walking to the gym, working out, shopping, cleaning my room. Waking up early has been a great change for me too.

The crazy thing about this is that today it’s been a week since I decided to close all my social media except for YT and whatsapp. And I’m watching THIS today, it’s like a message saying “keep on this way”. I also was pretty addicted to my phone, but doing that really helped my out. My anxiety has decreased so so much, I enjoy a conversation with someone and don’t feel the need of just grabbing my phone for fuckin’ see what other people were doing, I feel more creative. Yes, I plan to go back to social media but when i want to, not when i feel “THE NEEEED”. When I’m able to enjoy it n relax a bit n not to get angry about people talking nonsense and being nothing but just characters. Another magic thing about this is that this video appeared in my recommendations. Everything happens for a reason. We’re on the correct way mate. Regards n keep for it.
