Sometimes I look forward to going to bed at night because I know that when I wake up, I get coffee.
Waking up sucks, but waking up for COFFEE! Not so bad, people who wake earlier are generally happier with their lives than their night owl counterparts.
Pair that with the aroma of coffee to start your day, and you've got yourself on the right foot.
I do wake up early, and do prefer rising before the Sun, but my reasons are mundane.
I prefer to leave for work early and beat the rush hour; and once I reach the office, I have about 90 minutes or so to straighten and plan my day out before the meetings start.
I also try to get some exercise in - and actually succeed in doing so twice a week or so.

My reasons are more aligned with those of Karan’s. I love to wake up early but can’t beat the coffee King Riyadh.

I wake up early because overlap of work hours with European clients is limited to early morning hours in my timezone. If it's light outside, I have no problem jumping out of bed, even without coffee, but I have to admit, it's tough when I have to wake up before the sun. I do it anyway when needed and take a nap later if necessary!
