I bought one of those pod coffee machines. Set it up next to my alarm clock. (In theory), when I stumble over to my alarm clock to shut it off, I just hit the button on the machine and my coffee is ready in 4 seconds.

Usually, by the time I get up to snooze it a second time, the coffee is sitting there, smelling all coffee-like (yummy). That's my Pavlovian trick.

This is my favorite HN comment ever- rushed to the kitchen and moved my coffemaker into the bedroom as soon as I read it. Can't wait to wake tomorrow and have coffee within reach!

For those who don't drink coffee: Taking even just a single sip of a carbonated beverage right after turning off the alarm has worked well for me.
