    I wonder what it takes for us to unlock this ability of ours. It happens so randomly, and always just a few minutes before the alarm. One time I woke up the exact minute prior to the alarm going off. Abd was wide awake even

      Humans got an internal clock. My uncle who is a farmer has never used an alarm to wake him up. I personally stopped using an alarm years ago after high school, I just wake up ~5am and do my thing. The key is to just be consistent and your body will adapt.

        Cats do too. My cat would wake me up if my alarm didn’t go off on time. Also he understood the difference between weekdays and weekends somehow because it didn’t happen on my days off.

      Anxiety about oversleeping because you had a bad phone once that would make the alarm just randomly not work so after several times being late to work you just wake up 2 hours early and can’t get back to sleep

      Training. Though, amount of training differs from person to person. For me, it’s about 3 days of being woken at the same time and i wake up a few minutes before the clock. Looking at the clock before you sleep and thinking until when you want to sleep, may help adjust your internal clock.
